Opressiin is not a competition

Can’t believe that people are spreading the left-handed agenda on this apolitical shitposting sub. A hundred years ago, everyone was right-handed. But these days, the sinister left-handeds are forcing their unnatural left-handed ideology onto our children! Disgusting!

Left-handed women: straight to the sanitorium

[-] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

As a lefty, gtfo with this. Just open your binder and rest your elbow on the left side. Or grab the one lefty desk designated per school district.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

The older I get, the less a problem being left handed has become. Mostly now it just results in bad handwriting and occasionally awkwardly holding something. But yeah, it sucks when you're in school.

[-] QuinceDaPence@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

Same, scissors and tools that companies try to make too ergonomic are the only problems now. Well that and on the rare occasions that I have to hand write stuff it still gets all over the side of my hand.

[-] spittingimage@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

And if there was a lefty desk, a righty took it because it just felt 'more comfortable'.

[-] Hyperi0n@lemmy.film 5 points 1 year ago

Our schools have always had a surplus of these. Normally the left handed ones would be on the far left wall in classrooms.

[-] c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Not if they wanted to make it out of dodgeball alive.

[-] MrPoopyButthole@lemm.ee 16 points 1 year ago

Bad example. Those desks are shit for everybody.

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 8 points 1 year ago

And those are "good", there were some with only half or 1/3 of the shown table space. Had to sit on those for a number of years.

[-] Xylight@lemmy.xylight.dev 1 points 1 year ago

That's not a table that's a ta

[-] Amaltheamannen@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 year ago

Multiple forms of oppression can exist at the same time. Get out of here with the boomer humour. Also, I've never seen one of those desks in my life. Why not use a normal desk?

[-] totallynotarobot@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago

Calling it "boomer humour" instead of bigotry is sugar coating. Let them own their hateful shit.

[-] dingus@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

It's a joke, man. It's not that serious. These desks are common in many US schools.

[-] Rouxibeau@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

At one of my schools, this was the normal desk. And yes, lefty here.

[-] Default_Defect@midwest.social 11 points 1 year ago

Simply grow up and don't be left handed.

[-] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

What about left handed feminists?

[-] Smoogy@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Naaa. it really isn't hard to teach the left hand to use a righthanded mouse. I got used to it within a day.
I'll take some minor awkwardness that is easily overcome vs being someone's property and being denied a livelihood any day.

[-] Clent@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Look at you casually suggesting genocide of my people

[-] wischi@programming.dev 7 points 1 year ago

How about a real desk 🤣

[-] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

I have never actually seen one of those types of desks even once.

Do they actually exist or are they just a tool to scare left handed people? /s

[-] jasondj@ttrpg.network 5 points 1 year ago

As a fat left handed person, these desks are one of the main reasons I dropped out of college.

[-] Brisolo32@lemmy.eco.br 3 points 1 year ago

i might not be a lefty, but i sympatize with it since those are better for scoliosis (at least on my case)

[-] Gork@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

And all of them will have gum stuck to the underside of the desk.

[-] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Not like these desks were great for anyone.

[-] theFibonacciEffect@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

I feel bad for people who have to correct my exams

man those left-handed feminists are screwed
