  • Dems for decades failed to properly address social inequality, while proudly parading their politically correct talk about “communities”, “affirmative action” etc. This is a feel-good talk for their white middle-class demographics, while actual people in actual “communities” felt like animals in a zoo with a bunch of aliens around them figuring out what’s the best name to call them. At the same time no meaningful change ever happened.

    Trump won Latino votes in Miami. Just think about how much distrust the other side must have built.

    Stop blaming the voters. Look into the mirror and ask yourself how could this have happened.






  • The whole point of creating it was so that at least everyone gets to talk.

    Any union that would force any sort of rules couldn’t exist. But a one with no commitments does exist, and countries talk, and sometimes things happen when it’s not in a direct conflict of major powers.

    Lemmy somehow always imagines some higher international power existing and also that power somehow ruling in accordance with their beliefs. I’m not sure how they imagine that would actually work and who would enforce the order.











  • There’s a comedian who told a story, that I feel almost every guy can tell as if it was theirs…

    They had that friend in their friends group. You know, the kne always making misogynic jokes etc. Well, yeah, that guy eventually raped someone.

    You know where he says it was his, the comedian’s, fault? The whole group always laughed at those jokes, or maybe didn’t laugh, but definitely didn’t dismiss them, didn’t lecture the guy, didn’t tell him it was not ok.

    There’s this men’s club where misogyny is an accepted business as usual. And it enables deranged individuals.

    So, as a man who’s aware of the statistics, you can start doing some prevention: shame other men for misogyny.

    Oh, and btw, fuck the lady with sign. She’s a petty sexist using someone’s tragedy to support her hate for men.


  • And so, what’s the course of action? To give all men some sterilization treatment?

    How does this help with anything?

    And, I promise you, the real numbers are probably scarily equal, just like with domestic abuse. Because men are definitely taught to never come forward with those.

    But even if the true ratio was 1:50, what’s the solution? Let’s write the law that when it’s a man, he gets a double prison sentence. Or maybe the police shouldn’t believe men who say they were assaulted, but vise-versa barely check, cuz for sure it’s true?

    Criminal statistics should in no way enforce the course of justice or legislation. They could only maybe influence where money is allocated in prevention campaigns. At best.
