  • But that’s really sad, if you think about it.

    “Generally in the USA, it’s considered suspicious.”

    That means generally, Americans are unaware of these father-child activities.

    That means generally, Americans didn’t have a good father.

    Now, a lot of people would intuitively jump to “Nah my dad was ok” - but if this isn’t normal behaviour for you, then you’re just unaware of how bad your whole frame of reference is. That is a tough pill to swallow, though.



  • I think that’s a slight pun.

    The “-archy” part comes from the greek for “to rule/command”. Monarchy = rule by a king, oligarchy = rule by few, etc.

    And the “an-” part means “not” or “without”. So anarchy technically means “not ruled” or “without rule” - but if things are still being ruled, it would still be an “archy”, not a “not archy”.












  • And in this story specifically, the cyclops is a main story point.

    Someone might describe the story as “It’s about a guy who gets lost and fights a cyclops”. If someone describes it as “It’s about a guy who gets lost and fights a black person”, I wouldn’t know what they’re talking about.

    I don’t care if there’s black people in historical dramas, but the person responding in the image probably feels like they did such a sick burn, while what they really did was utterly fail logical thinking.
