  • I genuinely think shit like this is what promotes antisocial behavior in children. As in clinically antisocial, not just a synonym for introverted.

    Children learn hundreds of new words and new things every week. That’s their entire purpose in life at that age.

    Deliberately lying to them about how basic reality works for extended periods of time is likely what causes the neural short circuits of religion and conservatism.









  • They do, every year, at career fairs across the nations schools. It’s called divesting from the military industrial complex.

    You just pretend not to see it.

    This issue is brought up literally every time the Saudis are mentioned. However, your take is a fresh and interesting one that makes absolutely zero sense.

    What are you doing?

    Oh that’s right, nothing. Okay.

    It’s not even a fucking meme in the tankiest Putin apologist communities to support Saudi Arabia.

    Seriously where are you even getting this from?


  • The problem is for those of us who go out of our way to make women feel more comfortable and safe in male dominated environments, hearing women treat you with the same disdain as a sex pest just makes you stop giving a shit.

    Which again, I’m sure has happened with other “women when x occurs” memes as well.

    Overall very eye opening. I’ll hold my own doors and stop moderating conversations I guess. Just keeping to my own business.

    This entire issue is clearly just another culture war wedge being pushed by right wing think tanks except the target audience absolutely ate this one up as well as the victims.






  • Historical context: the KAL007 incident immediately followed the intrusion and activity of a USAF Boeing RC-135 recon plane that was in literally the same spot earlier that day. This aircraft has the same radar signature as KAL007.

    The Soviets, in a hurry to shoot the spy plane signature hundreds of miles off civilian air routes while it was still in their territory (the second time the unresponsive KAL007 crossed it during the flight), shot it down.

    Yknow, as regularly and justifiably happens with spy balloons today.

    Russia does enough bad shit without the propaganda, going full onion just makes it seem laughable (not saying you are, this is just an extremely common take).
