Mmh. Yeah. That’s a sound point.

95% because they’re basically nazis.

Well, in some countries, there was indeed historical link between sexual/gender minorities and pedophile advocacy movements (well “movements” is kind of a strong word here) during the 1950s to 1980s. It’s hard for us to understand today, but during my studies, I’ve worked on that topic and met a few people invested in creating or dismantling this link.

But :

1. It didn’t last for long.
2. That’s certainly not what they have in mind.
3. Most importantly, although public and documented cases exist, those minor parts of the LGBT movements were CERTAINLY NOT the strongest allies of the pedophile advocacy movement. Their strongest allies were actually well… more probably from the ruling class.

WooOo we spinoposting today!

Weird flex but ok

Note that the person actually didn’t define imperialism!

A while ago, I read a sociology or social psychology study about children and how they were given attention by their teacher at school. The sample was like a bunch of 9yo, 50% girls, 50% boys.

It showed that when the attention given was like 30% for girls, 70% for boys, boys would feel the girls were given unfairly high and constant attention.

The way they’re educated by their parents and, more potently maybe, society as a whole.

Off topic but it needs to be said :

Star wars 7, 8 and 9 aren’t terrible. Or if they are, they are in the same way 4, 5 and 6 were. (we don’t talk about 1, 2 and 3)

Nostalgia is not a synonym for quality.

I’ll dissolve into the force on that hill.

You may resume your ongoing activities.

Makes sense, indeed.

Imho an even better idea : abolish the whole concept of self worth. It can’t be negative if it doesn’t exist. Being is enough, it’s what matters the most. Having to “be worth” on top of that, in the eye of others or even oneself ? No thanks.

I know what I’m saying is not very different from the OP, but I care about the nuance.

This message was made by the “my psychiatrist is on holidays” gang.

But I mean it.

But hell are those holidays long.

Fair, but I thought it was a given on Lemmy.

I’m not sure it’s in those exact terms, but I think there were a few cases with high levels of preparation. Ended up being ruled as suicides anyway by the courts and the media. Not saying they’ll always win, though. But their idealogical power is not to underestimate.

A minister in my country was deemed to have committed suicide by drowning in a 50cm body of water. Strangely enough, all witnesses have committed suicide too just before being heard by the courts.

And it worked. Everybody know it wasn’t a suicide, but it changes nothing for those responsible of the murder.

Thanks for the laugh!

P. S. : The sarcasm was a distant reference to this and other kinds of resembling discourse floating around today.

I wish I could, fam, I wish I could.

But in the meantime, I can write sarcastic posts for my Lemmy pals during my commute to my 8 hours of work for my boss.

Indeed, this was supposed to be satire, like you know, the opposite of “budget better” corporate initiative.

I think we should get better at budgeting our work time.

It may sound daunting at first but when you want to work eight hours, first think : “can I afford this eight hours of work? Shouldn’t I rather be playing Monster Hunter?” and take good habits from there.

Maybe in the beginning try working 5 or 6 hours. Don’t rush it, but keep your determination.

You’ll slowly begin to perceive more opportunities as you grow in focus : “Instead of working another hour for my boss, I’ll write my own TTRPG setting or hit that solo queue”.

It’s hard at first but others made it. Why wouldn’t you?

What’s Reddit? A clone of Lemmy?
