You really need to screenshot and record everything these people say and do.

I have legit to see a leftist use the phrase toxic masculinity. Was it said once by a vaguely liberal person in 2015 and then the right has used it nonstop since then?

@AwGabrel @MayngueneBanana What does afab mean???
Is some shi like "foid" or what?

I never once considered Shitpost Reels to be afab. Maybe I'm a bad person

@TheMoodyTrues @TheeOutpost @jakebrodes People are entitled to the right to defend themselves, and have access to the best technological means available to do so. This right is not invalidated simply because there are evil or foolish people. It definitely shouldn't be dictated by governments primarily made up by both.

@TheMoodyTrues @TheeOutpost @jakebrodes Even if I am to grant that illegal brandishing are far more common, by great multitudes, it doesn't do anything to actually philosophically grant merit to the gun grabber argument, anyways.

American and Texan here: Americans mostly use guns to kill their whole families or random people in road rage related incidents. Lots of times we use them to kill children too. Our 2nd amendment is 50% a cyanide pill we chew on all day and 50% a vanity project for suburban morons

@100shemar @Le_Unorthodox @NebsGoodTakes That's probably more where the propaganda seems to come from.
Imagine that instead of just being one series, it felt more and more like a constant stream of it popping up, and wasn't just about the earth being flat, but about how it's a paradise because it's flat.
English
@100shemar @Le_Unorthodox @NebsGoodTakes No, but that's not exactly analogous. There are plenty of series with "God is real but actually Le Bad", or the Church, or whatever other Christian stand-in is appointed. After a while of seeing the same safe edgy slop, it can get tiring and feel like a concerted effort.

Religious people are deathly serious about their made up bullshit and constantly fuck up all of our lives because of lunatics in government but god forbid you play with the concepts of heaven and hell in a fictional superhero series lol.

The latest Invincible episode is literally Satanic Propaganda. It's not even canon to the comics. They had literally no reason to do this. Fuck this show

@popculture72632 @HLC_actual >on par with US military

Now we have to assume Iran not only has the technical skills to enrich uranium, but further they can produce something on par with the US military?
That’s a flimsy justification for going to war with no logistical plan, limited support from our allies and no case made to the American people. This is the geopolitical equivalent of a cop trying to justify an illegal search because they found something.

Apparently the US has been breaking the laws of physics since the 1960s.

FYI a nuclear suicide vest isn’t feasible due to basic physics. Nuclear explosions require critical mass, which means slamming the particles together. It needs space, so containers are large & heavy. This isn’t limited by tech. It’s limited by physics and reality.

I "love" how these kids are probably siblings, the boy is older and the only one in rubber boots.
But traditionalist already imagine them as a couple. That's disgusting.

Is this what they call "toxic" masculinity?
English
@victor2_10 @Anglo_Nomad @Milfox023 There's going to be some strange people in the initial post, sure, but they're a minority, meanwhile the quote poster is treating it as if there are large swatches of people coming to that conclusion instead.
English
@victor2_10 @Anglo_Nomad @Milfox023 There are plenty of people who complain about the 'toxic masculinity' of people who are brothers, uncles, fathers, sons, etc, and not just in terms of romantic interests, so that's just blatantly false.
The people confused are people like the quote poster.
English
@100shemar @Le_Unorthodox @NebsGoodTakes Christians come at the matter with the assertion that our beliefs are true. Militant atheists do the same
If Satan were a real force, but people didn't believe him, only decided to use his name as an edgy joke to anger Christians, do you think that makes much difference?
English
@100shemar @Le_Unorthodox @NebsGoodTakes Let's assume for a moment that the necronomicon is real. Let's assume that a bunch of dumb teenagers have it, think it's fake, and decide to play around with it. Do you think the necronomicon cares about their lack of belief in it being real when it pulls them into Super Hell?
English
@victor2_10 @Anglo_Nomad @Milfox023 Normal people understand exactly what the reply you're responding to said - good forms of masculinity are for everyone the man knows well, not just for lovers and the like. This is easy to grasp.
English
@victor2_10 @Anglo_Nomad @Milfox023 You've literally got it backwards. The only person making the assertion that they're in a romantic relationship of some kind at so young an age is the person making the quote tweet. That's where the idea is coming from - not the original poster.

@TheeOutpost @TheMoodyTrues @jakebrodes Generally speaking, however, gun violence, mass shootings and the like are all typically done when there is a lack of a threat of return fire (save for the indiscriminate gang shootings that get lumped in with mass shootings, despite being, what I feel, should be a different cat)
English
@TheeOutpost @TheMoodyTrues @jakebrodes Depends on their definition of defensive use. Actually firing in self-defense is one, for certain, but there are times when violence would occur had there not been the presence of somebody brandishing for self-defensive purposes that should count as well. Harder to track that.

@MustardFren @Antithesis27 @pixelelatedG @p3achcakegirl I'd personally prefer if all racial demographics were more similar to how white people generally are, without statistically significant racial bias for insiders or outsiders.
We've seen where that gets us when the outside groups don't agree, however. Especially with low-trust.
English
@JustAnothrAcct @Antithesis27 @pixelelatedG @p3achcakegirl The person with that image saved to their phone is ceying about racism because a white person said blacks back each other up
I actually view that kind of solidarity as generally a positive thing. All racial groups should do it.
English
@TheMoodyTrues @TheeOutpost @jakebrodes Literally the entire point of the post is to point out how people don't use guns to kill tyrants which, once again, would be violence.
There are times when guns are used as a deescalating factor without even firing a shot, as well.
English
@TheMoodyTrues @TheeOutpost @jakebrodes Violence is mostly committed by African Americans in inner-urban communities where gangs violence is prevalent, despite the same areas typically having higher gun restrictions. Not all cases of violence are bad, either. Look to self-defense - that's also violent.
