Well first these are the frequent talking points of incels when they harp on what they consider “low value females”. If you find yourself constantly repeating such devaluing talking points, maybe a break from the internet would do you good. Secondly, and more generally, it is usually more attractive to talk about the things you love than the things you hate. Unless you have already established that you and the other person hate the same things, then you can bond over that too.

This. She probably wasn't disgusted by the content, but by the form of what he said.

I can almmost guarantee this is what it is. One of those isn't even a big deal. If I was single I wouldn't date a single mom, not because there's anything wrong with them but because I'm looking for a serious relationship, and I know I'm not emotionally ready to be a father and I know I never will be.

I don't want kids for that reason. I was raised by a single mom and have seen how difficult it is. Nothing but respect for all of them out there.

Yeah, I don't know why no dating apps. What's that about?

[-] Naboo_calls_for_aid@sopuli.xyz 9 points 1 year ago

Probably something about the hookup culture? Strangest of the 3 imo

[-] Riven@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 year ago

For sure. I met my now fiancee on a dating app, neither of us are into hookup culture. She's demisexual so it's actually the opposite for her and I'm just not interested in it. These guys are really huffing the 4chan sauce hard.

[-] Naboo_calls_for_aid@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

Probably true, I found my wife before dating apps were commonplace, just what I've heard from others my age, I can't imagine trying to date these days. Also kinda surprising 4chan is still around.

[-] Riven@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 year ago

Yea 4chan is worse than it used to. I browse the X board which is just supernatural stuff. No kidding, 5 percent is the stuff I browse for which most people would be interested in, ghosts, cryotids, aliens, scary stories the usual stuff but X is overrun by semen retention, succubus, manifestation, literal religious nut jobs, actually literal insane conspiracies, the nobody (sounds interesting but it's actually just delusional people), divination and spirituality and any and all combinations of all these topics sprinkled with casual racism and xenophobia.

I'm not even nitpicking these are common and I just pulled up the app and saw all of the there.

I unserstand how some of these could fall under paranormal but the board is just overrun by insane posts and nobody sane could remotely believe them.

Being pretty familiar with it in the late 2000s, I kinda forgot about it in the mid-late 2010s only to recently find out the role of it & 8chan in the junk like q-anon and the rise of the alt-right. Like where did we go wrong?

[-] Riven@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 year ago

Non moderation in a world that is increasingly connected. All the crazies can easily find themselves and use propaganda to turn youths into them.

[-] Shard@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

My boi here knows how to hold a conversation.

A skill OOP seems to be severely lacking in

Don't bring object oriented programming into this.

Anons member will forever remain private.

I believe a lot of the problem with 4chan is that they publicly declare everything, when a lot of it should really be contained to a private scope

[-] abbadon420@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

We, the plebs, do enjoy the public declarations of 4chan though. It's like how normies enjoy gossip magazines to hear what bullshit some actor has done this week. In both cases, people also like to complain how bad it is to like those things.
