Can’t believe that people are spreading the left-handed agenda on this apolitical shitposting sub. A hundred years ago, everyone was right-handed. But these days, the sinister left-handeds are forcing their unnatural left-handed ideology onto our children! Disgusting!

Opressiin is not a competition

[-] humanlyhuman429@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 years ago

I think you forgot this is shitposting

[-] julianh@lemm.ee 35 points 2 years ago

Me when I post blatant racism and insult women (it's fine I'm just shitposting)

[-] humanlyhuman429@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 years ago

how is this racist and how does this insult women?

[-] Clent@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Being left handed is racist?

[-] Repossess6855@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Chill its just a meme it is not a serious take on either topic

[-] SkyeStarfall@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 2 years ago

Ideas very much are disseminated through memes and jokes. That's one of the main social purposes.of comedy.

Why is including feminists funny to people in a meme? What is the implication?

[-] Napain@lemmy.ml 14 points 2 years ago

no one ever normalized serious hate politics through shitposting, right???

[-] humanlyhuman429@sh.itjust.works -1 points 2 years ago

this is not meant to be serious shitposts aren't serious like i have to point that out

[-] irmoz@reddthat.com 5 points 2 years ago

Their point stands, though

[-] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 2 years ago

nothing exists in a vacuum :(

[-] Spaghetti_Hitchens@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago

Neutrinos do. They exist everywhere

[-] julianh@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Not a true vacuum if there are neutrinos in it.

[-] Hazdaz@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

It is these days.

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 45 points 2 years ago

Left-handed women: straight to the sanitorium

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 19 points 2 years ago

The older I get, the less a problem being left handed has become. Mostly now it just results in bad handwriting and occasionally awkwardly holding something. But yeah, it sucks when you're in school.

[-] QuinceDaPence@kbin.social 8 points 2 years ago

Same, scissors and tools that companies try to make too ergonomic are the only problems now. Well that and on the rare occasions that I have to hand write stuff it still gets all over the side of my hand.

[-] spittingimage@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago

And if there was a lefty desk, a righty took it because it just felt 'more comfortable'.

[-] Hyperi0n@lemmy.film 5 points 2 years ago

Our schools have always had a surplus of these. Normally the left handed ones would be on the far left wall in classrooms.

[-] c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Not if they wanted to make it out of dodgeball alive.

[-] MrPoopyButthole@lemm.ee 16 points 2 years ago

Bad example. Those desks are shit for everybody.

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 8 points 2 years ago

And those are "good", there were some with only half or 1/3 of the shown table space. Had to sit on those for a number of years.

[-] Xylight@lemmy.xylight.dev 1 points 2 years ago

That's not a table that's a ta

[-] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

As a lefty, gtfo with this. Just open your binder and rest your elbow on the left side. Or grab the one lefty desk designated per school district.

Simply grow up and don't be left handed.

[-] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

What about left handed feminists?

[-] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago

I have never actually seen one of those types of desks even once.

Do they actually exist or are they just a tool to scare left handed people? /s

[-] jasondj@ttrpg.network 5 points 2 years ago

As a fat left handed person, these desks are one of the main reasons I dropped out of college.

[-] wischi@programming.dev 6 points 2 years ago

How about a real desk 🤣

[-] Amaltheamannen@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

Multiple forms of oppression can exist at the same time. Get out of here with the boomer humour. Also, I've never seen one of those desks in my life. Why not use a normal desk?

[-] totallynotarobot@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 years ago

Calling it "boomer humour" instead of bigotry is sugar coating. Let them own their hateful shit.

[-] Rouxibeau@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

At one of my schools, this was the normal desk. And yes, lefty here.

[-] dingus@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

It's a joke, man. It's not that serious. These desks are common in many US schools.

[-] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

Right. Kids should bring their own desks.

[-] Smoogy@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Naaa. it really isn't hard to teach the left hand to use a righthanded mouse. I got used to it within a day.
I'll take some minor awkwardness that is easily overcome vs being someone's property and being denied a livelihood any day.

[-] Clent@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Look at you casually suggesting genocide of my people

[-] Brisolo32@lemmy.eco.br 3 points 2 years ago

i might not be a lefty, but i sympatize with it since those are better for scoliosis (at least on my case)

[-] Gork@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

And all of them will have gum stuck to the underside of the desk.

[-] originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 1 points 2 years ago

man those left-handed feminists are screwed

[-] theFibonacciEffect@feddit.de 1 points 2 years ago

I feel bad for people who have to correct my exams

[-] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Not like these desks were great for anyone.

[-] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Are you kidding? Best chiropractor you can get.
