@NOD_Goblin_Nico The “hostile media landscape” (we really aren’t hostile enough to the people enabling Israel’s genocide) has nothing to do with Tomoe’s choice, don’t use her as a soapbox.
@WWuffel42430@_Lord_Skinfant_@SasaArtRoom While it doesn’t hurt to be nice, I think that a lot of people are so sensitive to any kind of perceived coldness (myself included) that we’ve come to expect too much parasocial affability from artists and get cold feet as commissioners when it isn’t there.
@StarsBurning_@GSVbrickstump If I agree that everyone exploits someone, that doesn’t contradict my original point that men inevitably exploit women across cultures. Is your agruement that everyone exploits someone so we shouldn’t treat this particular exmaple of exploitation as something that can be fixed?
You need to realize that these questions are not interesting or important to anyone other than yourselves. They just don't matter. You all are obsessing over edge cases that dont matter and ignoring the huge problems at the center of gravity of the machine
@StarsBurning_@GSVbrickstump The extent varies across cultures, but as surely as people in the global north benefit from the exploitation of the third world by the circumstances of their birth, men will inevitably exploit women’s time, their autonomy and their bodies. It’s implicit in any culture.
@a_fellow_of Do you attribute this to being young and impressionable or has your life since highschool just been berefit of people who genuinely challenge the way you think?
@jumper_snowchad@FeistyKittyPie She doesn’t have a choice in the matter, that’s the outfit girls have to wear to play netball. I agree that it’s somewhat indecent by design, but his aggression towards her is definitely misplaced and speaks to a failure of parenting and a deeply misogynistic culture.
@FeistyKittyPie What does facing the reality look like in practice? I agree with your comments on incestous attraction going unspoken but I think the actual causes of CSA lie in pornography exposure, lack of parental supervision and power dynamics, rather than actual desire for family members.
@xfoM9@haravayin_hogh A lot of those 2010 “nightmares” were also lone wolf attacks, the Boston Bombers were self-radicalised and killed people with bombs made from instructions from the internet, the Manchester 2017 bomber might have been trained by ISIS but also made his IED himself in the UK.
@eugenicskun@chopwaterwood@oldsoundcard I have observed everything you stated about self-aware BBWs myself and it’s true… but it’s also such a crushing noctulian vantablackpill that being aware of it drives men mad… you are either insane to state these dark truths so plainly or the overman capable of bearing them.
@xfoM9@haravayin_hogh The Crocus City Hall attacks being perpetrated by an ISIS off-shoot five years after the military defeat of ISIS really shows that “extreme prejudice” has done nothing to stop Islamic terrorism. Even ISIS itself shows that direct military intervention only creates more jihadists.
@xfoM9@haravayin_hogh The GWOT has only made more self-radicalised terrorists motivated by the West’s actions in the Middle East as well as Islam. There are still Islamist terror attacks occuring well after the military defeat of ISIS: Crocus 2024, New Orleans 2025, regular knife and truck attacks
