@AMischling@sentientist I'm just trying to explain where this pickiness and fragility come from. As long as they attempt to enforce any reasonable filters at all (like ask that male has own place to live, or ask that female respects the male) the search space immediately collapses to nothing.
@McSmurray@sentientist There is massive undeniable narcissistic crisis, which boils down to a single fact - most young males are broke. At the same time girls are being taught to compete with males and often succeed in that. How dating is supposed to work? What textures are there to observe?
@3Cryptard92598@reformexposed You are not Nazi, mate. You're fascist. Not because you ruin somebody's views or throw Nazi salute. But because you're primarily motivated by nationalist/racial collective narcissism, which is the core of any fascist movement. And pathetic is pretending you're not driven by that.
@DrDaniS Apparently collective narcissism does not spare psychology scholars, who in theory have all the cards on their hands to be better than this. Very disappointing.
@NoahCarl90 Assimilation is a myth. Many people fail to "assimilate" in their own country. Immigrants do not come to assimilate, but to give better life chances to their kids. Assimilation is another pointless and unrealistic demand used to justify alienation, which prevents assimilation.
@jimthegiant The reality is that this is only a part of the story. Government could absolutely rein in these foreign companies by legislation and taxes. The other part is just how the economy is structured around financial leverage and rent-seeking. Thatcher didn't do that part.
@TheTinMenBlog The lesson here is that sometimes it takes just one influential journalist with some bad non-causal charts to convince a lot of people in some overly simplistic, sensational narrative. So yeah, social network definitely have some negative influence.
People like you, who are trying to build nationalist utopia are fascists. That's the meaning. You don't have to be Nazi or believe that Jews must be murdered to satisfy the criteria. And yes, you did great job converting majority of the British population into fascist ideology.
Calling everyone you disagree with โfar rightโ has destroyed the meaning of the term.
Iโm sick of seeing serious labels abused to smear ordinary people with legitimate concerns.
In 2015, before Brexit, over 50% of the country was concerned about immigration. Does that make half the country โfar rightโ?
Throwing these labels around is reckless, dishonest, and damaging to public debate.
@JesusFerna7026@13orangesbc It's feminism. It's not political. It's a mind virus. It's a pathological concoction of attractive beliefs around female narcissism against which nobody has immunity. It just spreads.
@JesusFerna7026 Smartphones are obviously not the reason. We'll probably need to roll-back feminism, contraceptives and a bunch of very sensitive social norms to fix this. Or wait for the feminists to die out.
@LukeTryl This is demonstrating how brainwashed and capricious British public is. NHS waiting lists finally go down. Major drop in immigration. Isn't this what people demanded? And the most damaging things Labor did (which is Tax) are barely mentioned. But they won't forgive Fuel Allowance
@sentientist I wonder if limiting somebody's work, blocking colleagues, suspending incoming bills and free tickets to Maldives would have a similar effect on "self-reported well-being and mental health".
@EPoe187 I'm pretty sure that nobody can explain what this "people love their culture" statement even means. As usual it's probably just a virtue signaling cue harnessed to justify xenophobia.
@Jerseyxx@eliotranch@SDPThamesValley Narcissism is always about loving yourself - this is why patriotism feels so good. I agree - it can be useful if you need to send few millions to die in a stupid war without asking too many questions. Not sure there are any other applications. Wokeness btw is also a tribalism.
