Tech companies as soon as they are publicly traded:

Here in the UK we just pretend it's not a problem by calling it a lifestyle choice.

Backwards thinking.

Andrew Tate isn't creating these young men out of well adjusted people.

Young men today face a mountain of issues with zero sympathy from the people or institutions around them. And grifters prey on these men.

Having grown up in the "teach boys not to rape" era of progrssive rhetoric, it's actually insane to see all these people just insist being in a guy's world is all sunshine and rainbows and all these men are just awful people falling of their own accord.

Young men get told some pretty damaging things growing up, even from progressive people.

No clue what that street sigh means, but I guess it's supposed to signify a shared space?

One of these share footpaths with pedestrians. The other two have to use their own dedicated pathways.

Americans always seem to think that there is some kind of pan-ethinc bond between people in completely different counties, as if we weren't all killing each other until that whole "world wars" thing.

Our government can't pay doctors, but it can give away trillions to private corporations and constantly raise the pay of politicians.

Ideologically, de-federating an instance just because you don't like the guy running it would be a bad thing, but Facebook/Meta has been just so toxic to the internet as a whole it's hard to really find fault with it.
