Every 'All lives matter'-spouting motherfucker knows this already

Not really, no. There are a lot of folks who are decent enough but never took the time to really think about it - to them, morality should be simple and straightforward, so "All Lives Matter" feels better because they feel like that covers all of the bases instead of playing an endless chain of "well what about X lives".

There are definitely people who are saying it to be lovely, but it's about 50:50 on misguided:lovely from my experience.

McNaughton is actually an incredibly, incredibly competent artist, and it's an absolute shame that someone with such skill and an immediately recognizable style got corrupted as hard as he did by the brainworms.

Though looking at it a second time, I can't help but chuckle - Nadler was clearly never intended to be holding a pitchfork, and Romney's bible(?) is massively out of perspective.

Is he though? He can render half decently but everything always looks like he traced the faces and postures from a photo. He'll capture likenesses pretty well but his paintings are all ugly as sin, his perspective is always off, he has no sense of composition, and everything looks superimposed.

I said "competent" instead of "good" for a reason - his paintings usually look okay despite the errors and he works well within his style. He's hardly master-class, but if he wasn't such a shithead, he seems like the kinda fella that I might commission a portrait from.

That's actually a pretty good tweet but a lot of folks don't want to have the conversation

there's like eight different potential conversations to strike up from that source, which one are you referencing?

Jaxyon posted:

That people don't talk about the fact that Bernie has the privilege to sit there like a curmudgeon while women and especially minority women often have to pretend they feel one way when they really feel another because there's repercussions for being emotionally honest for those people, and this takes labor.

It's less a criticism of Bernie and more a statement about white male privilege, and pretty true.

hard nah

the pulp of that conversation is "it would be unacceptable for a woman to do the same thing!" and then whoops, turns out janet yellen did the exact same thing and nobody got up in arms about it


i guess you could try the follow-up tactic of "women are pressured to smile and be pretty all the time, men should have to as well" but that's actually "it's fair for me to demand that others suffer as i have" in a lovely disguise and i hope i don't need to explain to you why that's a garbage opinion for garbage people

in conclusion:

also it's no coincidence that it was specifically bernie that got targeted with this rhetoric, hope this helps

I'm a leftist who loves Bernie and nobody is accusing him of oppressing anybody.

I'm done here, it's not the right thread to have this conversation and nobody is bothering to try and understand.

it absolutely is the right thread to have a conversation about it, we're Debating and Discussing the context and interpretation of the image in the D&D Pictures Thread

though for future reference you don't need to make up an excuse to exit the thread after getting pushback for your poo poo take, you're allowed to stop posting quietly

Oh if that's how you're going to play it, I'm happy to continue posting here.(yes I'm aware that was the intent of your bait)

Do you want to engage with it, or did you just show up to defend the honor of Bernie?

I'm not sure how "women frequently have to pretend to be feeling one way instead of another, due to patriarchy, and that is emotional labor" is at all controversial but if Bernie's involved there's really no stance that's too defensive, huh?

hell yes the knives are out

alright buddy let's break down the sentence. do a little Writing Analysis here

https://twitter.com/kenklippenstein/status/1352634003115954176?s=20

gonna bold the relevant parts for your convenience, because i love you

quote:

I love Bernie, really I do, but sir: emotional labor is not beneath you.

its directly addressing bernie. literally and actually. those words are pronouns, and those those mean something: "these pronouns are referencing the aforementioned specific person"

which happens to be: Bernie Sanders

this is not about Feminist Critique Of Emotional Labor. this is lashing out at Bernie Sanders using Feminist Critique as a cover to do so. this has happened before and it will happen again, and it's incredibly telling that you don't see it for the transparently disingenuous justification that it is - especially when every single defense of these actions has been torn apart with ease because they all suck. the only good faith interpretations of your take are that you're incredibly gullible or you've completely memory-holed every democratic primary that Bernie has participated in and are unwilling to do any kind of research in response to the pushback you have recived from multiple posters saying that you have a poo poo take

also lol @ "defending the honor of bernie". i'm just capable of pattern recognition and loling that you are not, don't try to make it more than what it is

Sure there is, and it can be as simple as "yeah it's true women do sometimes have to do emotional labor that men do not" and left at that, but that wasn't ever going to happen here.

that's not a conversation, you knob. that's you being desperate for someone to pat you on the back and say "great post, OP!" as if your surface-level reading of yet another obvious bad faith attack on someone is praiseworthy

like jesus christ the whole "twitter feminist ties themselves in knots to produce a poo poo take on bernie because he's The Enemy™ for having the audacity to run against A Woman" was so loving prolific that mainstream memes picked up on it



but no we're definitely pushing back on your shallow idiotic take because we don't believe that women perform more emotional labor than men. that's absolutely the case. 100%. SA is just not the place to have talks like that. you solved it.
