“We Wuz Robbed” isn’t a sign that Bok is racist, it’s a sign that he’s really really old. It used to be a pretty common catchphrase in sports with exactly that spelling, and it had nothing to do with AAVE, it was based on Joe Jacob’s NY accent. https://www.dictionary.com/browse/we-wuz-robbed

*sigh* AGC. So, the American government should fund, regulate, or otherwise encourage more parental leave and childcare options for the people who choose to raise a family despite the hardship, right? And all pregnancy and childbirth-related medical costs should be fully reimbursed under Medicare for All, right? And there should be more funding for public schools, which most American children have to attend (because charter school spots are limited and most parents can't afford to send their children to a private school). Public school funding should be statewide or nationwide, and not completely hosed for the families who live in impoverished areas with low property tax revenue... RIGHT???

Trapezium Dave posted:Rall: We Have Seen the Future, and It Is Stupid For a brief moment, I thought there had to be a good, if dated joke there.

They assume Toxic Masculinity just means being a man is toxic, as opposed to a culture that demands men align to certain standards to such a degree that hurts everyone involved. I forget where I heard this, but one dude claimed peeing standing up fell under “toxic masculinity.” There’s no intellectual curiosity here: they just want a strawman to play the role of villain in this weird fantasy they have with themselves as the Crusader of Conservative Social Norms.

They know what toxic masculinity means, the hyperbole is to distract from the real definition, because as the old adage goes; If you're explaining, you're losing.

Well I guess it's not necessarily a contradiction since they do have a "solution" in mind: ban birth control

I think there is a "our terminology is extremely easy to misunderstand" problem in many ways, but also some people are determined to misunderstand it and even if it was redone it would just end up like global warming/climate change.
