@PotatoMcWhiskey I don't think it's an impossible term for them to understand, but rather it's a term that they would rather misinterpret. Probably because the classification does invalidate the humanity point of view and makes workers easier to abuse by employers.
@mathdemigod@PotatoMcWhiskey You could pull anyone off the street with anything above lower quartile IQ and show them how to do the job and they would be able to do the job in a reasonable amount of time. It requires no prior skills just basic coherent thought.
@IwriteOK I'd been following it from the very early days and it was a constant thing to see the ranks increasing as much by convincing as it was the other side purging the unpure.
The left handed the right such a rich harvest and the renewed ability to fight what was a losing culture war.
@IwriteOK Different take, the reaction to gamergate was what catalysed things. A relatively small-scale concern was responded with coordinated alienation by mainstream and pushing people into the fringes as suddenly there was not only a loss in trust put also hostility against them.
@Spectrathegame This feels like a motte and bailey. If it were so benign then impressing your politics upon art would not be something not being complained about.
@comitatenseocc Those are not relevant to the point I was making, that people are in fact upset about the change because it feels like "and suddenly we found this letter about how Dick and Rodger were just the bestest pals and always have been".
@comitatenseocc @parsnipfan40285 @IanNolWriter Now imagine that was just done in a story after 30 years of those characters existing and letter writing. Could you see the community reaction to that? They just did it to sell more stuff in more territories, they make these changes all the time.
@comitatenseocc @parsnipfan40285 @IanNolWriter This shit has the same vibe as thinking historic love letters between two men could have just been "close friends" because they never explicitly mention having sex with each other. Then announcing that they were always heterosexual.
@laha_jeet I love women, strong women in general. But I also care about the pre-existing lore warts and all. Retconning and then lying about it is both insulting and hiding ulterior motives.
Just like I never expect a character like Inkeyes to show up in skaven because that's how they are
@Nijagen@Helixel@DublinComicCon @brenach_ Did he like just the one antagonistic tweet or the other blatant tweets? If it's the former than what does the latter have to do with it outside of implying people should do full background checks for every nominal social media interaction. If it's the latter, thats noteworthy.
@arvalis@XNews Why are you shitting on someone who manages the account and announcing features like damn near every company of note has? How is that not a real job? You have plenty to be angry at but man you might benefit from introspection, this is really just needlessly hateful.
@meltborne The few comments about her appearance are going to be great fodder for deflecting from the negative response it will get for being bad.
All it takes is like 2 or 3 to screencap while some shill writes an article about how the people who don't like the thing are horrible people.
@GonerThomas@user29_unknown@ShitpostRock Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Tryin' to hold on, did-didn't even know
I wasted it all just to watch you go
