EL BROMANCE posted:This makes me think of a car that was driving near us the other day. Glock and AR15 stickers in the window, probably illegal blackout windows, stripped make and model, and a reflective plate that I couldn't read from any angle bar one that I'm sure has to be illegal. It screamed mentally unhinged person who will flip out and kill you. I don't think she'd ever flip out and hurt someone, she just has to be the center of attention. Always and forever. She can be really fun to hang out with outside of that, but literally talking about homeless people like they're roaches killed any goodwill I had towards her.

So much about this confuses me. What is the genital integrity one about? What do they mean by "agreeing to die", is that a reference to joining the military? Does this person think that men don't have the right to refer to rape as rape? What is going on???

Does this person think that men don't have the right to refer to rape as rape? What is going on??? "Genital integrity" is an anti-circumcision thing. The joining the military refers to how in the US, up until very recently, men were required to register for the draft at age 18- otherwise they weren't able to register to vote (this may vary by state rather than nationally). But instead of abolishing the draft entirely, the senate passed a bill requiring women to register at age 18 as well as men. The rape as rape thing refers to the culturally pervasive, and incorrect, idea that only women can be raped.

Which is dumb because (a) female genital mutilation, which is much more physically traumatic, is still happening around the world, and (b) Congress voted in June that women would be required to register for the draft, although it hasn't even been used since 1973.

Feminism opposes the patriarchy and the negative impact of gender roles placed on both men and women, which have generally had a greater negative impact on women. Rather than engage with that and deal with how those gender roles affect men (which, despite what that picture says, feminists definitely do talk about) in an honest way, they see it as some sort of gender war and say, "See? Men have it bad, too!" and don't bother to provide a solution or do anything except complain to derail the conversation that they don't understand. But yeah they're specifically talking about circumcision and the draft.

The best part about the "only men have to go into the draft" bullshit argument is that the bill that introduced the draft was signed in by, guess what, men. The only person who voted against one of the earlier conscription bill was a woman.

All this propagandising bullshit has made me realise a while ago that the most satifsying superpower, even if it wouldn't do anything meaningful, would be the ability to jump into any persons body. Jump into the closest ally of a union-buster and make him call him out with "Or, howabout if you have specifically put yourself into a position where part of your job is paying your employees, how about you actually do your job and pay your loving employees you incompetent shitheel." It wouldn't work, but it would at least get the secondary rear end in a top hat fired and would be enormously satisfying to be able to yell something like that at some rear end in a top hat that your wouldn't normally be in a position to even meet. All the fun of touching the poop and you don't even get your hands dirty.

Website comments are social media, right? Over at Engadget, in the comments about yesterday's iPhone 7 event. The article's author included the following in their write-up: "The iPhone 7 Plus is only a few grams lighter than the 6s Plus that came before it, but that feels like a significant difference. I had to stop using the 6s Plus because its weight and width were enough to make my wrist hurt after a while. The 7 Plus, on the other hand, might be just light enough to mitigate some of those issues." Someone was apparently not pleased.

That claim has been around at least 15 years if not longer. It's because they were self-identified National Socialists, see? Policies and politics be damned, they called themselves socialists!

I've actually used the north Korea thing to try and explain to these people how they're wrong. Im just confused, because the Nazis have had the title of socialist for nearly a century now, but it seems like only in the last few months it's been used as an argument point by conservatives.
