The Juggalos didn't do poo poo. Mostly because the Supremisist rally was like 50 people strong. But Its safe to loathe them again.

I mean, by that logic theres lots of terrible people that aren't as bad as literal Nazi's

You don't have to spend anger on them. But a group idolizing petty theft and assault and worst, poo poo music. Don't magically become good based on worse groups existing.

Its not incongruous to say they are still terrible but I hope they win against Nazi's.

Your friend may very well be a closet neo nazi. Only neo nazis freak out over antifa because on their private message boards antifa is played up as this big looming threat and some people can't help but carry that baggage around in their normal lives.

Sort of like they also carry around the whole "global Jewish media conspiracy" thing and sometimes the crazy just leaks out in every day life.

Another hint is when people bring up Mao/Stalin to somehow "counter" when someone mentions how bad Hitler and the nazis were.

Because only nazis value an idol so lovely that "Not as bad as Stalin" remains the last moral bastion for them.

You say that, but you forget that they have a foothold in the public narrative. Not just neonazis are anti-antifa. Some anti-antifa have been victims of the same propaganda that makes them think black men dressed a certain way are thugs, that everyone with a drug addiction is a worthless criminal, that any broken window in a protest makes it violent and thus invalid, etc. Just garden variety easily duped pearl-clutchers who're often oblivious to their own racism.

They say that Hefner was aromantic, ie someone who isn't interested in romantic relationships. Like asexual, but pushed even further.

Tbh I've never been quite clear on the difference between asexual and aromantic, so let's pull up the way they themselves define it.

From wiki.asexuality.org

quote:

An aromantic is a person who experiences little or no romantic attraction to others. Where romantic people have an emotional need to be with another person in a romantic relationship, aromantics are often satisfied with friendships and other non-romantic relationships. What distinguishes romantic relationships from a non-romantic relationships can vary diversely, but often includes physical connection (holding hands, cuddling, etc.) The aromantic attribute is usually considered to be innate and not a personal choice, just as the lack of sexual attraction is innate to asexuals. It is important to note that aromantics do not lack emotional/personal connection, but simply have no instinctual need to develop connections of a romantic nature. Aromantics can have needs for just as much empathetic support as romantics, but these needs can be fulfilled in a platonic way.

It is possible for an aromantic individual to be involved in, and enjoy, a devoted relationship with another person, but these relations are often closer friendships, naturally reflecting the closeness of the two individuals and not a purposely initiated monogamous separation as is often found in romantic couples. Aromantics may experience squishes which are the aromantic or platonic equivalent of a romantic crush. When an aromatic gets into a relationship that's more than friends - but less than romantic - that is known as a queerplatonic relationship.

Like all romantic identities aromatics can be of any sexual orientation.

Welp, that didn't really help, did it?

E: from the same place


quote:

Related terminology

aromantic: a person who does not experience romantic attraction

demiromantic: a person who does not experience romantic attraction until a close emotional bond has been forged

grey-romantic: a person who does not experience romantic attraction very often, or otherwise feels between a romantic and an aromantic on the romantic scale

lithromantic: a person who experiences romantic love but does not want their feelings to be reciprocated.

squish: a desire to spend time with someone specifically and get to know them personally, sans romantic feelings. A platonic crush

queerplatonic relationship: a relationship that is not romantic but involves a close emotional connection beyond what most people consider friendship. The commitment level in a queerplatonic relationship is often considered to be similar to that of a romantic relationship. People in a queerplatonic relationship may be of any romantic or sexual orientation.

WTFromantic: a person on the aromantic spectrum who doesn’t see the lines between romance and friendship. Any of the following may also apply: cannot define romantic attraction and therefore do not know whether they experience it, have emotions between platonic and romantic attraction, want to be in a queerplatonic relationship

zucchini: a term used to refer to a partner in a queerplatonic relationship. Roughly equivalent to the terms boyfriend/girlfriend for a romantic relationship

It's because he's actually kind of poo poo as an artist. I've mentioned this before in the politoons thread, but Garrison is good at drawing individual parts of things, but he is spectacularly incompetent at making those parts fit together cohesively.
