This but for social media in general

I like bickering about useless nonsense with people who most definitely will not be changing their minds. Yes, I know it’s a waste of time. No, I don’t plan on stopping.

This but for social media in general



I wish there was a way to filter out tankie-slop posts like this
Saturn devouring his son but nonchalantly


Explain this then pal… bet you can’t



One time on Bluesky I made unfortunate contact with a psycho that genuinely believed bigotry could be a good thing “if applied correctly.” It’s basically liberal MAGA over there


Nobody needs to eat shit for nutrition, common sense says in ruling against shit peddlers


This stupid new slang meaning for the word can fuck off.
This is how languages evolve regardless. It doesn’t really matter if you still use ‘gay’ to describe how happy you are, you’re still going to needlessly confuse people by using it like that nowadays.


The amount of control they exercise over their congregants and money they require to stay in good standing is astronomical compared to lost other christian denominations.
Wait til you hear about how greedy the Catholic Church was before & during the Reformation. New denomination, same religion. This is just how faiths inevitably evolve.
Also Mormonism—though I hate using this aphorism because it’s not even true—is as American as apple pie, there’s really no threat to be spoken of here in the usual sense of the word. It’s existed for more or less 200 years now, subsisting along with every other facet of its surrounding culture. Mormonism is American society, it wouldn’t have become so widespread without it.


Tragedy of the commons.


My point is that a large part of what led to Israel being the way it is are the western values and ideals it was established specifically in mind of, namely colonialism, imperialism, and western exceptionalism. Solely getting rid of them doesn’t handle any of the root causes like that.


Yep, I think I just tend to mentally clump them together with the west as a whole tbh. That’s on me tho


No, that’s very much a part of why it’s considered taboo. Obviously there’s a wide range of difference in cultural opinion of what’s considered “okay” to eat, but dogs have still been with humans for the longest out of any domesticated animal. They’ve literally evolved to eat diets more like our own. It’s completely intuitive that there would be such vehement opposition to eating an animal we’re so historically close to, even if it’s mostly on a cultural basis.


Israel and its citizens are mistakes, and it’s high time we fix that mistake.
Bloodthirsty vibes from this aside, Israel and its warmonger culture is working exactly as it was intended from the start. At best it’s just a caricaturized version of the US, which makes sense considering both of those countries’ intimate ties since the beginning.
“Solve” Israel and all anyone is doing is cutting off a branch when the rot starts at the roots. It would pretty much be a textbook example of the scapegoat mechanism. Obviously they aren’t innocent of anything, but solely removing their influence out of the equation will never change anything substantial.
There’s a multitude of ways to correct someone without coming off as a pedantic prick in the process


I find it strange how you’re getting downvoted, since there’s so much evidence to back up your point. There’s literally a whole page on Wikipedia that goes over the human-canine bond and how it’s unique.
Some points it brings up:
studies have demonstrated that both dogs and humans release oxytocin while spending quality time together.
Canines are capable of distinguishing between positive and negative human facial expressions and will react accordingly.
Psychologists believe that the relationship between human and canine is a bidirectional attachment bond, which resembles that of the typical human caretaker/infant relationship, and shows all of the usual hallmarks of a typical bond.
Canines are capable of assessing humans’ emotional states, as well as discriminating humans by levels of familiarity.
Studies have demonstrated that shelter dogs benefit from interacting with complete strangers…These results demonstrate the canines’ innate desire to form an attachment with a human


You didn’t, silly. You said being gay isn’t illegal, which sure, is conditionally true, but neither was being a free black person in post-slavery America, and yet we hopefully both know how that demographic was treated then, if not even now.
Besides, my goal isn’t to address something you did before me, but to point out how, intentionally or not, you’re leaving out very important info that lays out the mis-or-disinformative nature of your point. You can’t talk about the quality of a book if you’ve only read a single chapter.
Anyway, feel free to continue implying something along the lines of me being on the payroll of the all-powerful capitalist oligarchs of the world or something. It’ll really help your point.


you cannot make pornography. That’s the only rule
Nope, that’s categorically false in every possible way, even if we’re being pedantic. For the sake of informing those who might have been misled by this (since I have little doubt you’re being intentionally disingenuous as campists often are) Here’s a couple relevant excerpts from the Wikipedia article on LGBTQ rights in China:
[LGBTQ] people in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) face legal and social challenges that are not experienced by non-LGBTQ residents. While both male and female same-sex sexual activity are legal, same-sex couples are currently unable to marry or adopt, and households headed by such couples are ineligible for the same legal protections available to heterosexual couples. No explicit anti-discrimination protections for LGBTQ people are present in its legal system, nor do hate crime laws cover sexual orientation or gender identity.
Under Chinese Communist Party (CCP) general secretary Xi Jinping, LGBTQ venues and events have been forced to shut and LGBTQ rights activists have become subject to greater scrutiny by the country’s system of mass surveillance. The CCP increasingly considers LGBTQ advocacy the work of "foreign forces”. LGBTQ content is censored. Authors of boys’ love works are routinely arrested and criminally prosecuted.
Alternative path: become an online grifter, make millions from being a degenerate, eventually get outed as a pedophile, convert to Christianity/Islam, profit!
