I know one (teacher at my school was accused, got immediately thrown out because other students were witnesses and backed the teacher), but I know literally hundreds of unprosecuted SA against women and dozens against men I know (both gay and straight)

I made myself 18th century detached pockets, and you can modernise their side tying skirts and wear the pockets on the inside. Pocket your wine bottle, pocket your cat!

Im sure they're hopped on amphetamines but that's because every single army in a protracted war since fucking Crimea has shived uppers at their soldiers.

I have thus far managed to avoid the hell of the dating app and I hope to never, ever, have to resort to it. it does help that as a communist I am so very very attractive.

As someone who is so very very old and tired. I remember nothing but wailing and gnashing of teeth over the Taliban oppressing women and forcing child soldiers into their religious doctrination camps etc which is why we had to bomb said camps of women and children.

It's one of the differences between the Isekai and the Portal Fantasy. Sure sometimes the protagonist ends up staying, but the portal is in principle always there. Think Outlander where at this point they're popping back to the present for toilet breaks.

Heck sometimes in the more Isekai-like variants they start up a roaring cross-universe trade.

But ultimately that adds a sense of responsibility that Isekai lacks, because you never know when the FBI is gonna start wondering where all the gold and jewels are coming from your "technically not a smuggling operation because you technically don't cross a designated border."

They think people interpret it as "Struggling smol bean trying to get ahead in the world" and not "My worst ever boss who was an absolutely gigantic fascist"

That's true, but on the other hand there's a fine line between not falling into ultra-ism and being a tailist. You have to stick to your guns on, say, women rights, but be where the people are, arguing and exhorting them to consciousness, rather than just handing down commands from on high.
