Decent f*cking human being.

"I wear a mask as a sign of respect for others. You moron. You fucking asshole."

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@AdlucemSophia @Philosophi_Cat @HazelAppleyard_ Exactly too many people just rattle off whatever pithy slogan they absorbed somewhere rather than actually thinking about their lives and values and change their minds when, if, they do. Mom probably should have taught her a bit better to try to avoid that though.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@wanyeburkett Weren't women raking some democrat politician over the coals for referring to "unwanted rape" some years back? Similar type of joke. Or that West Wing joke about the guy "accidentally" sleeping with a prostitute and Toby's like "did you slip?"

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@wanyeburkett I think she's just making a joke.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@anton75960 @wanyeburkett Is she particularly pro-immigrant? I didn't immediately see it on her feed. I thought she was just making fun of the wording.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@darkfang1989 @memeticsisyphus Tbf it makes it pretty clear what the context of the tweet is. People in her social circle are not dating men with criminal records. So if they end up with an abuser it's one of those covert types of abusers.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@TakiVan1 @memeticsisyphus Maybe this explains all the post-apocalyptic stories in pop culture, only way to safely express a will to live.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@memeticsisyphus Gives me super creeps when white boomers nod approvingly about another race kind of taking over their neighborhood. Like, populations shift, I don't expect them to be mad about it, but why are they glad?

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@Sun_king97 @peternorvig1816 @memeticsisyphus Also as in, the abusers would use that excuse and their family (if applicable) would use that excuse.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@Sun_king97 @peternorvig1816 @memeticsisyphus I was using "who" to delimit a subset, if delimit is the word I want. Not all abusers but specifically the ones who have that excuse used for them.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@Sun_king97 @peternorvig1816 @memeticsisyphus I didn't even think she was trying to generalize to all violent men, I thought it was pretty obvious she was talking about abusers and their family who use the excuse of "lost control", maybe she just made the wrong assumptions to get in under the character limit.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@blakeston888 @notsocrazy24 @memeticsisyphus X has character limits so we often have to assume our audience will get the context of what we're talking about. Personally I got it, I thought it was a pretty common trope.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@quachelsey @moontruther34 Yep there's a reason I don't have siblings.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@moontruther34 @Dave66925928150 I'm sure part of it was raising kids in an ecosystem of strict expectations so there was no one person holding the line by themselves, but I'd still expect to learn some tricks from them.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@moontruther34 @Dave66925928150 Yes it's so weird to me how boomer grandparents obviously were either more chill *or* more strict but anyway have no access to it anymore. Like I'd be fine with older relatives disciplining my kids if they want certain behavior but they just throw up their hands.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@sympatheticopp @nvpkp Either that or it's just a reflexive thing like when the check in person at the gym says have a nice workout and you say thanks you too.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@cmunchhof @dantypo Does it specify who has kids? I'd think single moms / main custody would be a big difference.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@HarleyFQuinn777 @CassandraRules Exactly like people can't always help how they look, maybe the skinniness and shaved head are important for other roles, but the nails c'mon now.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@BlTCHEVAP0RATE @smoke_nd_pearlz Men what's stopping you from looking like this.

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@MichaelAArouet

[I somewhat disagree @rugstump]

@GhostStalker451 @maryarchived This but on so many levels because you never even got to see it in theaters.
