Account abandoned due to dbzer0 members disparaging me for sharing my experiences and trying to provide interesting leftist OC
What is the 196 sub?
Shitposting community that is expressly LGBT+ affirming and trends leftist (see stickied posts, for example)
Why is the bad guy depicted as a Chad?
Good question lol. Maybe because the person who doesn’t look like a male stereotype is the reasonable person in this post?
Do we get a poem?
Then I’m left with no choice but to depict myself as the gigachad
I was hoping to avoid such extreme measures
I realize most people who would visit 196 certainly know this, but I still feel compelled to point out that anarchism is entirely incompatible with capitalism.
So up until very recently, Japan was requiring transgender people to be sterilized? 😬
Housing is a basic human right
Even misdemeanors can be hard. I know I’ve been turned down for jobs based on my two arrests for disorderly conduct years ago. They’re not felonies, but they show up in a background check.
Every big web site in 2024 looks like the sites people warned you not to visit in the 90s
Every new fact I learn about Stonewall makes me respect the people who were involved even more.
Yeah full disclaimer: This is a screenshot of something my friend posted and not my experience. I’d imagine it would hurt, but maybe I could practice it with … a very trusted friend lol
I can’t believe my hooker name is Bofa
Same in our house, and we used to have all kinds of Goya stuff. Fortunately, it’s never been that high quality to begin with and can be easily replaced by alternatives.
I remember people on reddit misgendering that antiwork mod for the crime of [checks notes] a botched interview on Fox News that didn’t even fucking matter.
It was an ugly thing to see all that transphobia out in the open like that.
To have a solution, you first must have a problem. This isn’t one. It’s only a problem for racists.
Treating people’s lives like political pawns in a campaign is NOT okay. Stop trying to normalize this shit.
Don’t ever speak to me again. Enabling this shit is a horrible thing to do to people. Let’s put you in a camp or send you into a violent situation and see how much you like it. “BuT iT’s ElEcTiOn YeAr” I don’t care
“Just a few hundreds more people in concentration camps and thousands more deported, and we can finally stop the Republicans from imprisoning and deporting immigrants and refugees!”
Democrats having a normal one about human rights, eh?
Edit: This may be a good place to remind everyone that the people we’re de facto targeting with these policies are people with indigenous roots. This can and should be interpreted through the lens of colonialism and our ongoing genocide against Native groups.
Edit 2: Oh boy I cannot believe I have to say this, but these people with indigenous roots are not limited to Mexico and Central America. Does anyone know anything about history here?? My God, I’d assume if one is going to comment that one would at least have the slightest idea what they’re talking about.
Edit 3: And to the people who think it’s some kinda “gotcha” to point out that I’m disengaging from people who are shit-deep in the anti-immigrant hysteria, you got me. Nearly half my family are immigrants, some of whom have been detained and/or deported by our racist border policy, and I live surrounded by batshit conservatives. So yes, this is a sensitive and personal issue to me. If I wanted to talk to people like that, I’d go to the gas station or bar. Lemmy is my opportunity to talk to people who at the bare minimum agree on certain fundamental ideals, an opportunity I don’t have much in real life. I will block and report you for name calling or other uncivilized attacks on my character.
You just expended a shit ton more mental energy on these lyrics than he did
One thing I’ve learned living in a conservative state in the US is that everything is my fault by proxy
I should just be rich enough to move, how hard can it be
Ok, but how much will my cut be?
This is what it is, and it’s sad that it’s so normalized that people are defending it.
Everyone knows the kids aren’t technically required, but they’re “required” by social pressure.
I remember having to go door to door selling things when I was a kid. It may have been voluntary in a technical sense, but I was pretty well mandated to do so if I wanted to be part of that group with my friends. And there was even more pressure from my mom and dad because they didn’t want to be the family whose kid didn’t do the thing.
I think it’s time we start taking a long hard look at some of these things like fundraisers and de facto coerced employment of youth (without pay) and ask ourselves if a healthy system would allow this.
I think about this tweet a lot.
