It's jaicilgin. He's an incel that says women should be owned by men. He's perpetuating the male loneliness epidemic by encouraging men to be terrible pieces of shit.

I find it incredibly stupid when people blame the forests when they have a problem with a specific tree. And that's just the most sympathetic take on why he posted this in the first place.

No sympathy for this guy at all.

We may never know @jaicilgin's name

I'm pretty sure it's ~~jaicilgin~~

And men don't? I am willing to bet that the most wars in history could be traced to men who couldn't cope with their emotions in a healthy way.

[-] NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

War is men not coping with their emotions in a healthy way. There is more than that to it, sure, but that is the central pillar at the core of every war throughout documented history.

*a few. I like to believe wars were fought more over resource domineering than ideology or emotion

Otherwise jesus are we lost as a species

In all seriousness, as a guy, I am genuinely gobsmacked at how many men feel entitled to sex and blame their insecurities and lack of dating skills on women. Looking back, I'm glad that I came from a culture where it's more egalitarian. The schools I went to taught us that feminism is about equality between men and women. It's not about one gender being superior to the other. When I was younger, my mom repeated to me couple of times not to get upset if a woman rejects me, to the point I told her she keeps saying what I already know before.

Later, as I got older, I realised that feminism and gender equality is taught differently in different places, or barely taught at all. Many people mistake feminism as female superiority. Some families don't teach treating the opposite gender with respect. Even here in Europe, despite the progress since forever, I find Europeans still have more rigid gender expectations than in Southeast Asia.

Sometimes, being born into what family and the environment you grow up in is a matter of luck and shape who you are. Despite my parents' flaws, I'm lucky I was born to educated parents and our culture is more or less egalitarian despite some hiccups.

[-] littlewonder@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

Sometimes it's a willful misunderstanding of feminism.

A strawman they've built in their heads from the words of their tv news preachers enables them to continue to hate women.

Listening to actual feminists and taking a minute to understand how it benefits everyone is hard and means they might have to stop feeding their delicious hate.

[-] Karl@literature.cafe 10 points 1 week ago

Where do you come from, if you don't mind me asking. Because your birthplace sounds AWESOME

[-] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

I don't want to say specifically where I'm from, but I am originally from South East Asia. A common theory for the relative gender equality is because of the sea-faring, nomadic culture of Austronesians, who populated South East Asia and later the Pacific. Apparently, because of the lifestyle and constant movement, the workload is distributed between men and women, which promotes egalitarianism. Similar thing is observed on Native Americans and hunter gatherer cultures. I don't know how solid the theory is but I will have to read more on it.

Even with South East Asia now being a "settled" society, and Abrahamic religions introducing some patriarchal ideas, the egalitarian value still largely remains as far as I can tell. There is remarkably more women in management roles in South East Asia compared to other countries. Many Westerners even noted how there are many female security guards in my home country.

I've literally seen men riot over a ball game. 

[-] FrChazzz@lemmus.org 17 points 1 week ago

My kids sometimes like to watch compilations of "fail" videos. The sheer number of clips involving adult-age males either punching or ripping their televisions off the wall as a result of a sports (or video game) outcome amazes me (but probably shouldn't). I always tell me kids (especially my daughter) that if they ever see someone do this, they need to leave immediately and not have any kind of interactions with this person. If they're willing to beat the hell out of a television, they'll do the same to you.

I've launched a few controllers in my day. But that day was when I was like 15 and I was an emotionally volatile little shit who still needed to learn to manage his emotions. Can't believe that we have dudes who never grew out of this phase, only doubling down, running around acting like they're the superior sex.

[-] Hazzard@lemmy.zip 6 points 6 days ago

Yuuup, smashed a controller or two in my time, and quickly learned that I don't like when my stuff breaks, and have to master my emotions better/find better ways to vent, and then I did. Wild to watch full grown adults who never learned the same, and are just... wasting money replacing things, I guess.

[-] FrChazzz@lemmus.org 2 points 5 days ago

My SNES controller still bears the scars of when I smacked it into my grandparents' brick fireplace when I was 12. And I learned the importance of controlling my emotions as a result of the time I got mad at Panzer Dragoon Saga and ripped the disc out of my Saturn--scratching it EXACTLY where I was stuck in the game (like, it ran fine until that particular boss battle began, then it glitched out). I was able to fix the disc years later with a Disc Doctor (and still have the game), but given how rare and valuable that game is these days I still feel the pang of regret for having such a short temper. But the silver lining to that is that it all began a process of learning to properly handle my emotions AND gives me a good cautionary tale to tell my kids when they start getting mad at games and I tell them to take a break.

Philadelphia officials grease city light poles, often with Crisco or hydraulic fluid, to prevent fans from climbing them during major sports celebrations, notably for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Women shouldn't vote unless they're over the age of 18.

[-] Broadfern@lemmy.world 28 points 1 week ago

Great news! Before the age of 18, they’re not women.

How would it even work to have 1000s of emotions each minute? That's a minimum of 16,6 emotions every second. Is he under the impression that women have superhuman time perception?

[-] Kolanaki@pawb.social 14 points 1 week ago

I have BPD and it makes perfect sense to me.

[-] VibeSurgeon@piefed.social 12 points 1 week ago

I imagine trying to keep up with feeling all of those emotions must be like playing a song on Guitar Hero that's just a bit too fast for your current abilities

[-] Kolanaki@pawb.social 10 points 1 week ago

It does! 🥹

I like the whole “I tried but didn’t really care at all” vibe with the username censoring.

The little red line through the name is somewhat confusing.

It was a very poor attempt at censoring his name (not mine).

What's there to be confused about? It's an obviously great job of censoring to make sure to protect the online identity of a terrible person named ~~jaicilgin~~ . I know that last word looks completely illegible, but it actually is censored just like in the screenshot!

You think they are too emotional to vote but want to give them guns and tell them to shoot things?

Flawless logic /s

[-] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 week ago

I would say that the majority of women that I know are more emotionally intelligent than the guys I know....

Most of the guys I know are emotionally repressed because they need to be a man.

He is describing Donald Trump, actually.

Edit: except he does have real estate. But he still shouldn't be in charge.

From my experience, men are emotional too so his dumb ass point is invalid

Hey, as a woman who was in the military, a lot of those women are pretty crazy too. Are you sure you wanna automatically give a green light to thousands of crazy women whose political literacy hasn't been vetted?

If we must put restrictions on who is allowed/not allowed to vote, it should be based on passing some sort of political literacy test. For everyone.

[-] First_Thunder@lemmy.zip 11 points 1 week ago

The question with having a complicated standard/threshold for voting is always the question of who is responsible for choosing who gets to vote

Father Nathan Monk mentioned. He's an activist ex priest that posts interesting stuff about religion, most often Christianity, including the hypocrisy of most religious people.

I'd recommend a follow if he was on the Fediverse, but he seems to be active on X, Substack, and Facebook.
