yeah bro, it's the internet, everybody has opinions.
"yeah so actually i think this is a big problem"
"yeah evidently it must be a problem, but like, this has always been a problem, and seems to be a consistent problem"
"YOU'RE LITERALLY THE PROBLEM!!!!"
Lemmy User: It’s not really about women. Everyone suffers from this.
also to be clear, you are literally straw-manning me here, i'm not saying that "men have to suffer with women having an opinions" nobody cares, it is what it is, i think it's interesting actually. You're the one arguing that because people discuss topics that they find personally relevant is somehow "oppressing women"
I'm not saying you shouldn't shitpost about that stuff in shitpost threads, by all means do, there's interesting dialogue in it. I'm just saying this is a common occurrence anywhere on the internet, for any community. Hell go find a community for something as mundane as lego, you'll find the same shit there.
Not everybody NEEDS to have their own specific issue that specifically effects them for it to be a valid or real problem. I just think this issue is far broader than most people expect it to be, ironically, i could argue you're literally behaving the exact same way you claim i am. Because you are, and that's exactly what's happening.
Do i care? No, i don't it's the internet do whatever you want.
i've never seen a pro genocide lemmy instance, everytime i've argued against it i've been banned or moderated on, granted my instance isn't pro genocide, so there's that. But that seems to be a regular occurrence on lemmy in my experience.
I posted one thing on the one hexbear thread people used and immediately got banned lmao, what a terrible instance. I just ended up blocking the whole thing because why even bother at that point.
i wonder if it's not just worse on lemmy, but gotten worse over time, with the manosphere shit and all it's relevant problems, neither feminism nor the manosphere, or traditional male gender role has really addressed this issue comprehensively, and we're starting to see pushback from this issue in real life now, men are enrolling into college less than women, they do worse in most environments, and also are generally worse when it comes to mental health.
I wonder if we just need like a dedicated "social issues space" where people can talk about this stuff.
i mean, if they're doing it as a haha funny, i see no harm, but if they're also being assholes, i think that takes precedent. You aren't legally required to fill in your gender tagging appropriately so.
Try making any post that focuses on situations uniquely or disproportionally experienced by women and you get mostly “what about men” or “men have it worst” responses.
that's kind of just how controversial things are on the internet though.
Evens shitposting from men will get similar responses from women, it's just how it is now. Sort of always has been.
the paper doesnt necessarily need to absorb the ink, the ink just needs to dry on the surface is such a way that it adheres well enough it doesn't rub off, or stay wet.
So really, you want a high adhesion, quick drying ink, which would basically let you write on any surface it'll stick to.
i mean obviously, but unless you aren't teaching kids how to read/write in school, the amount of complete ignorance you would need to expend in your adult life to backslide so far on something so ingrained into your brain structure is genuinely impressive.
sentences in foreign languages are complete gibberish to me, unless i partly know how the grammar structure and language works, but that's also sort of automatic at that point, if i wanted to actually comprehend it, yeah i would have to put work into it, but that's literally me translating the sentence at that point lol.
being aloof or absent minded isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's just a different type of engagement with the world, would it be nice if we didn't forget shit the second object permanence stops applying? Yeah, can we work around it, also yeah.
