It was, infact, not all good there.

Good lord the discourse here is about as well as the man or bear discussions.

Something I notice is how everytime someone makes these kinds of criticisms, the counterarguments turn into a pit of semantics and extropolations. As if the original post was a massive research thesis rather than just women venting frustration over the entitlement and danger they're subjected to daily.

You gotta look past the specific wording to see the overarching societal themes, emotions, and issues. It's like those magic eye pictures.

Ok hear me out, what if his ear just did that?

The joke is people will mention the latter at any chance they get even if it doesn't fit.

So the format is:

[Important discussion]

[Unexpectedly simple response]

[Some guy interjects with thing he always talks about]

But the most important detail is I personally have a fast metabolism, I can eat as much as I want and not gain weight for whatever reason lol.

For normal people, to be late to something.

For this guy, the R slur against those with learning disorders.

Don't know if this has been fixed but Gemini was telling people it's unethical to teach people C++ or memory management.

Because it's considered "memory unsafe" but Gemini took it literally and considered it to unsafe to teach.

The brother being a better parent than most actual parents.

It all seems to boil down to patience and Pavlov in the end.

There was a weird incident in class where a good amount of my classmates, including some who were POC, believed that black people were biologically more aggressive based on anecdotal experience.

I'm white but I was arguing against this because it made no sense. As a possible explanation I argued that black communities are typically poorer because of history (slavery, segregation, ect) and that poor and desperate communities are whats more likely to be violent.

It seemed to get them to pause for a moment. I'm sure I wasn't as nuanced as I'd be now but I was a dumb reactionary teenager talking to dumb reactionary teenagers.

At first I found the absurdity silly and amusing.

But then I realized, this is the same demographic that would shoot up a drag show, simply because of men wearing dresses. Now they're wearing diapers in public support of a convicted rapist that shits himself.

As a trans woman, the thought that they would even wear diapers to justify their hatred of me and love for their incontinent idol, it is disgusting. I'm literally nauseous right now, they think people like me are beneath an actual man baby.

So one Question I'm always asked. Who would win in a fight? Who would win in a fight if Galactus fought The Hulk, or if Thor fought Iron Man? And there's one answer to all of that. It's so simple, anyone should know this. The person who'd win in a fight is the person that the scriptwriter wants to win!

This specific instance probably.

But the point is soo much of history ignores the female perspective (or the non-european perspective). Sometimes intentionally like all the female scientists that contribute to foundational studies and don't get their name on the published paper.

And this is really damaging; I have a family member that legitimately believes that european-descent men are the smartest throughout history (when I brought up the Islamic Golden Age as a counter example he accused it of being propaganda).

American schools are so bad at teaching diverse history. So many still struggle with the basic truths about Columbus and the Natives.

People don't understand that I choose every word carefully in a sentence to convey the most meaning and answer follow-up questions up front. Then they think I said something that literally contradicts what I said or that I already accounted for in my first sentence.

Yes I'm a programmer with Autism and ADHD, why do you ask?
