There should have been strikes after citizens united. I don’t think it’s too late, but now it feels like a scramble to organize.

Job description says US Senator “Obviously, my job is to acquire the best possible scenario for a foreign country” lol go be a fucking Israeli senator then, asshole.

Me then: “Haha ‘time marches on’ what a cool phrase”

Me now: “Yo, time, can we maybe slow the pace or take the break?” Time: “No. Only march on.” Me: visibly aging

The “strongest military in the world” couldn’t even handle a single war in the middle east. How are we supposed to win multiple wars with multiple fronts in multiple countries against much stronger militaries with many more allies? It’s pure hubris.

Living through the “decades in weeks” part of history isn’t as fun as I thought it’d be but, but I guess I always thought we’d move forward through decades in weeks instead of backwards.

Nah, he deserves a much more ironic punishment more suited to make him miserable.

He deserves to be forced to afford rent on minimum wage in an inner city surrounded by the people he hates.

Prison is where they should have sent their opponents instead of a second strike. They deserve death.

Depends on what kind of radiation. Alpha radiation? You can hold the banana forever, but you better not eat it. Gamma radiation? Kinda fucked either way.

I guess I was a little to aggressive in my original comment. I meant to explain why minority only groups get less flack than majority only groups, not to suggest that men only groups shouldn’t exist.

Women only groups exist alongside the people who disapprove of them. I don’t see why men only groups can’t. As many have pointed out, however, men only groups DO exist. Someone linked to dull_mens_club as a Lemmy specific example, but more broadly, fraternities exist. Battered mens groups exist. I think some groups like nights of Columbus and the masons are or were men only. Men only schools and colleges exist, as do women only. Most veterans organizations are primarily men just by nature of who makes up the majority of most militaries.

You’re putting words in my mouth and confusing the difference between a demographic and an individual. AS A DEMOGRAPHIC, women are oppressed. AS A DEMOGRAPHIC, men are not. We’re talking about statistics here, not individual experience.

The fact that some men are oppressed does not imply men are equally or more oppressed than women.

The fact that women AS A DEMOGRAPHIC are oppressed and men AS A DEMOGRAPHIC are not does not imply all men are oppressors. It DOES imply that men opress women, but like… fucking duh? If men aren’t pressing women, then who is? It doesn’t mean all men are oppressors, but are you seriously going to sit her and act like the majority of domestic abusers, sexual harassers, and discriminators AREN’T men???

You’re interpreting a defense of women exclusive spaces as an attack on individual men. You should unpack that.

I didn’t place them in the oppressor group, I said they weren’t oppressed.

The mens club you’re talking about DOES exist though. Since men are not a marginalized minority, that club is just called society.

Your logic mirrors asking, ‘Why not create a whites-only club?’ Technically, you could, but people would rightly view it negatively because white people, as a group, are not marginalized. Exclusive spaces for minorities exist to provide relief from the discrimination or bias they routinely encounter. For groups that do not face those barriers, everyday society already functions as their ‘exclusive space,’ which makes it difficult for non-minorities to understand why others might need a separate environment.

You know someone called him that like 5 hours before he used it.

My guess is he was talking to bubba and spoke out of turn.

At least they’re not wasting resources and fossil fuels during a time that is critical for the planets climate. /s

Brace as in brace for all the alcohol I will consume in celebration?

You either die a start up or live long enough to become google.

Please go talk to a real person, because this is the kind of shit you’re supposed to share with your close friends so they can say, “Jesus dude are you okay?”

It’s not a hard pill to swallow. You’re ignoring that not everyone learns by reading a book. Some people learn be performing actions, some learn by observing instructors. Just because the way that works for you is free doesn’t mean that everyone has access to that.

George Carlin said it best.

So glad the most armed nation is history is run by such mature level headed adults.

Seriously, why does everything feel like fucking dumbass highschool bullies are running things? Was that Bowling for Soup song right??
