Can’t stand him anymore, but his delivery has always been good imho.

But he just doesn’t get it. He thinks slinging shit at “sacred cows” as actual literal fascists are forming ranks is somehow fair play. Like, it’s not illegal, but you should know that some people are taking real sides in this, and to them jokes are more ammunition in their culture war.

In a better world I’d agree to sling away, but I think because of his privilege he doesn’t see how tenuous the situation is (I didn’t either back in the day).

Even if it wasn’t it excuses nothing. I’m sure there are more copies of that book in the US–should they start a brutal bombing campaign on Colorado next?

Hahaha yes, even adults complain about the lack of “snacks” when they visit. Like what do you call an apple or carrot. :P

I always found this such a demented take, because like why are they so tilted by the idea of NOT eating meat? Do they truly believe that it’s ethically defensible, or are they actually relishing the idea of participating in increasing the net suffering in the world?

Firefox makes a good fork base anyway

Shame about all the stuff, but I like the consequences for owner class part of it

Ethically I feel like it’s a more defensible position too.

What’s fw, Precious?

I’ve scouted up ahead and recommend turning back

I feel that. I’ve come down with a really bad cold this month and just stopped everything for 2 weeks, and really slow getting back into it.

I feel like such garbage from just that bit of inactivity. I was actually shocked by how quickly the wheels fell off, I started to hurt, feel a sluggishness that I couldn’t shake, feel more depressed and hopeless… Working out helps but it’s taking me a while to climb out of this hole. It’s so hard, it’s like I’ve lost the ability to believe I could feel better, let alone want to workout.

You make a good case…

Nope, just silly haha

I’m not debating you, friend, or assuming yours or any other viewpoint. Just letting you know.

Please enter the query “how do mentally disabled people feel about the r word” in any search engine and let me know what the sentiment looks like on the first page. Go ahead and take a screenshot.

Maybe you and your friend have a different understanding, buy now you know how it’s seen generally.

I see the confusion. The word is still a slur if it doesn’t apply to the person you’re using it on.

See the insult deflection meme.

The image really does illustrate a fascinating thesis

Yeah even without ads or profit incentives we still haven’t solved the social problems of social media, let alone the ethical problems in the hearts of people

That word is legitimately still used as a slur though. In a way that moron, idiot, or stupid, aren’t.

Get some grub

Thanks, Cap 🫡 (great username) I wonder how we can help shift that culture so that we can properly problematize greed. P

ublic shaming, or… Like maybe an action to collect donations outside of profiteers’ houses, since they clearly don’t have enough :p

Yeah as soon as I started making real money I didn’t go nuts, but I started to notice little signs of a new sickness: stopped feeling bad whenever I used a paper towel, would buy things without looking at the price, got into expensive hobbies like cognac and cigars.

I wasn’t even rich, just had lots of disposable income all of a sudden.

Anyway, it didn’t suit me at all. I’m actually really ashamed.
