Yeah, it's obviously framed like this to dunk on the non-gamer for being goofy, but the reality is (most of the time) someone forcing an ultimatum like this is doing is because every other method failed. So, it's hard for me to see this anything other than a sort of power fantasy. I'm not sure what to call it. An "I'm right" fantasy? A high-horse fantasy? Not sure.
And the frustrating this is that goofy posts like this hide this so well, because yes, ultimatums are generally bad, but if you point out something like that, they'll just say something like the non-gamer just jumped to the ultimatum with no warning... But... It's just a single panel. There's literally nothing else.
Idk, it's just weird to me. Also feels a little misogynistic.
Lost me at the misogynistic part. There’s nothing about this that necessitates a specific gender, just happens to be what’s in the meme.
And yet it's usually the woman in memes like this that's behaving inappropriately and usually the woman that's acting boring in the memes comparing boys and girls.
You're free to do your own memes about whatever you want, buddy.
Never said I couldn't.
And it's ok when other people do, too.
Never said they couldn't.
Never said you did!
But you sure felt the need to tell me "it's ok when other people do, too" though, so it sure seems like you interpreted what I said as saying people couldn't.
This absolutely happens, and women can be toxic too. Not everything is misogyny. I've had some absolutely horrible girlfriends and women in my life. I've also had amazing women in my life. Instead of assuming everything is misogyny you could idk.. maybe consider that women arent always sunshine and rainbows?
When did I say otherwise? I even specifically mentioned most of the time in my comment, acknowledging that it's not universal.
Huh?
You derailed the whole post because you have no concept of nuance. Now, this is a misogyny thread, because that's the only lens through which to perceive the world, apparently.
No, minimizing my comment to one small thing I mentioned at the end in passing at an aside and saying that it was "derailing the whole post" is the derailing.
Theeere we go. It's misogynistic everybody. Pack it up, we're done.
"Feels a little misogynistic" is all I said, jeez. 🙄
No, you're cooked. Tonight at 10 there will be two ogres in linux t-shirts at your door. They'll escort you to the lemmy dungeon where you'll spend the rest of your life.
Oh gods, not the Lemmy dungeon! I better eat some beans as I'll need to not poop for three days.
That explains why you're full of shit.
Huh?
