Then this is a good opportunity for you to check your confirmation bias. You and I both know you're not replying to me with a coconut radio.

I think it's fucking weird the comic attempted to differentiate indigenous from the rest of humanity so that's specifically what I'm taking issue with.

Dude... The VAST VAST VAST VAST VAST majority of indigenous aren't out there "protecting lands", and have no more connection to nature then you or I.

Nice casual racism though!

And that other 90% of humanity is working to industrialize to get where we are. It's a massive issue that as far as I'm aware we have no solution to.

A French blacksmith who did this knife using a meteorite and mammoth ivory.

It's a beautiful blade, but it SICKENS me a mammoth had to be killed to make this.

BE the change you want to see 🌟

I love the goal post shift!

Feminism: "We need to promote body positivity"

Society promotes body positivity towards women.

Men: "What about us?"

Feminism: "Men don't experience body policing like women do!"

But.. what about body positivity..

This is the shit that confused me about people pushing vaccinations. It's all "body rights body rights body rights" until someone gets recognition you don't like.

"Oh but traditionally women have been.. etc"

Oh so now we care about traditions? Now suddenly we're pushing social norms? Now conveniently personal rights, and freedoms don't matter?

Do you know why feminists suck? It's because they aren't actually egalitarian. And worse, they are blinded by their own friggen biases.

I've watched feminists chop a fucking guy down, and gaslight him that "it sounds like he hates women" for talking about not getting emotional support in relationships. Dude then got muted. Women calling men trash though? "Ohhh you should know they're not talking about you. A good man wouldn't take offense to this".

Fuck, I'm nonbinary, I date a lot of other nonbinaries. I've literally got in arguments with nonbinary feminists sitting there telling me "You have to understand society sees you as a white man".

Shit is fucked. Just completely fucked.

I am fucking happy to see men getting recognition instead of seeing everything blamed on toxic masculinity.

What side jab? Showing men can face similar issues is a side jab?

Why can't things be compared?

Ohh! So I rewatched Voyager!

Sevenofnine never wanted to be human.. Like she desperately missed the collective for a LOONG time. Janeway forced it on her.

Also! Janeway fucking killed off Tuvick. Dude was begging for his life.

Sorry haha, just wanted to bitch.

This is not authoritarianism, in this case they said it is due to their inability to moderate.

Rationally I think this is straight bullshit. Their inability to moderate is because of the desire to control the political direction of topics. If people want an echo chamber, fine, but I'm calling it out.

Beehaw is some pseudo moral purity echo chamber. They consider anyone with a contrary opinion a troll. People create these "safe spaces" under the guise of protecting minority groups, but fuck.. I'm a minority, and I knew immediately I wasn't going to be welcome there.

People are free to judge it as they please.

--edit--

Why aren't other instances having this problem? Like if trolls and spam are such an issue, why do I only see relevant on topic comments in other instances?

The issue isn't trolls, it's political dissent. And if you care about the truth, if you care about having the ability to talk about and express your ideas freely to other people, to have uncomfortable discussions with people you disagree with, to be exposed to new ideas, and fuck.. to possibly even change your mind, you shouldn't support beehaw.

If you genuinely want that type of environment, go for it, but that place should be called out for what it is.

This type of political authoritianism is why I left Reddit. It kills discussion, and I'm here for critical discussion.

Dude... Like....

Duuuude...

I don't know how to phrase this, but Reddit was getting filled with... Normal people? Nongeeks? The socially adept?

I'm sooo glad to be back with silly peeps. I missed that sense of critical self awareness haha. And I've been able to express some controversial opinions without getting locked and banned, which is mellowing as fuck.

I think having both votes available and displayed are massively beneficial as a tool against echo chambers/dogma.

Fuck group think. It's an illusion.

Probably because banning people based purely on political ideology is kind of facist 😝
