The beginning of 2025 came in with a bang! The flash of lightning, the rolling sounds of thunder. The year of the dragon is ending, the year of the snake is set to start. The symbolism of the snake, paired with the storms for me invokes imagery of Thor battling Jörmungandr.
In 4 years we will be at a point where the 1980s and the 2080s will be equidistant from us. At this time 1976 is as far away from us as 2076. The 20th century is over and never coming back.
And let’s also not discount those “cringe” compilations. We called them cringe, we laughed at them, but they were endless examples of college students, professors, members of the media repeating insane conspiracies about how men, specifically white men, were evil. They denounced concepts like free speech and academic freedom, they perpetrated the rape hoaxes and the college campus scares. They’re the ones who say all men are rapists, all white people are racist, and it’s important to hire BIPOC and other marginalized communities (open discrimination). These people ruined lives and promised to do it again and again.
Remember trigglypuff? She went viral for screaming at a conservative speaker to “keep your hate speech off our campus.” A horrible retrograde attitude to have as a university student, to denounce without giving a fair hearing. Well she moved on, she changed her name, she’s working on her PhD. She writes about fat phobia and prison abolition. Terrible ideas now being spread by the next generation of college professors.
An entire power structure with open race and gender based contempt. You know, the thing you guys pretend to care about.
@shortmagsmle Right. All It instilled in oneself was boomer parents weren't going to care if you cried or complained about anything, they're not coming to help you and they never will. Much too uncomfortable and inconvenient for them. Time to put a stop to that.
Would be happy to show ID. No big deal. I actually support secure elections. How do you think it makes folks on twitter dot com feel when you scream at them Ryan? You're a very rude and obnoxious guy. Many people are saying this.
Okay I can point out the illegals. They toss their beer cans on some of the trails and leave their trash out on the benches at parks and I’ll be happy to see them gone
