Good lord the discourse here is about as well as the man or bear discussions.

Something I notice is how everytime someone makes these kinds of criticisms, the counterarguments turn into a pit of semantics and extropolations. As if the original post was a massive research thesis rather than just women venting frustration over the entitlement and danger they're subjected to daily.

You gotta look past the specific wording to see the overarching societal themes, emotions, and issues. It's like those magic eye pictures.

This feels like something an incel would seriously suggest.

When you want to be like Putin so badly you adopt his leadership style:

While watching the debate it was funny watching Trump say she'll end fracking like that's a bad thing (though even with green energy, I do admit we'd still need it for plastic).

I joked "next he'll attack her by saying she'll drive up green energy" then he literally did. Said she'd return to windmills and dare to use desert land for solar panels, oh the humanity xD.

I wonder if it's because, regardless of being rich and famous, he can't coerce a pop star like Taylor, he's not that rich or famous.

She's unattainable, and for a narcissist that's irresistible.

Thing is Trump made his most ridiculous statements highly memeable.

"They're eating the dogs!" is gonna live on like "They're turning the fricken frogs gay!"

That might draw enough of the disinterested crowd to figure out what happened that night.

Or in some cases might crash 8.5 million computers worldwide.

Yes the Crowdstrike crash was caused by going 1 past an array length, caused by a magic number index and a regex mistake, and wasn't caught because the tests didn't work.

The whole thing was a compound series of amateur mistakes, but with kernel access at boot time.

The pronunciation of "nowhere girls" is homophonic

I had to carefully reread that...

As a pansexual I feel that Bi and Pan have enough differences to both be justified while the others are micro labels (not invalid, just less useful as labels).

But I recognize I'm drawing that line very conveniently for myself.

Could just say "I'm nobody", then when they realize just say "I wasn't answering your question or giving you my name, I'm just nobody".

God I want someone this competent in office so badly. I'm tired of bad politicians conning the system and "good" politicians just running things on autopilot. I want a leader that understands their government so badly.

This echoes what I've been feeling about Kamala's campaign too. I feel she'll be great at the job of presidency, but may have to rely on Walz to grease the wheels of congress to actually pass things.

Ah I understand, sorry for being blunt but there's a lot of people acting in bad faith when they question victim's actions in abusive situations.

Rule of thumb is once abuse is involved, don't assume people will react rationally, you may accidentally say something insensitive.
