White people finally figuring out what names are for… https://youtube.com/watch?v=63ldknEhOMM

Oh, you aren’t looking for an answer because you’re an idiot. Go on with your life then.

The logic should apply both ways, but it can’t because patriarchy prevents it. Meanwhile, people who don’t have a critique of patriarchy can’t really explain why this is the case. They simply point to it and say, “this is unfair and it hurts men,” without having enough context to actually fix the underlying problem.

Under patriarchy, men are the only ones seen as having agency so they are assumed to always be the aggressor. The assumption is true, even when the reality is not. At the same time, men are socialized to ignore boundaries meaning that most of the time they will be the aggressor, reinforcing the assumption and justifying the application of laws that align with that assumption.

Men will always be the abusers and never the abused. Men will never be seen as the care givers, even when they are the actual care givers. Men will always be the rapist, never the victim. And, because society tells men these things, we often enact them against our own interests.

The fact that this logic doesn’t make sense is something feminists have been calling out for a long time as part of the larger system of patriarchy. While patriarchy usually gives more power to men, it doesn’t always. But even when it does seem to benefit men, it still harms men… Just like how every other system of oppression harms everyone involved, not just the oppressed.

See: MRAs failing to understand how this kind of “reverse sexism” is really just the same patriarchy that feminists describe, and that basically every “gotcha” example is really just an example of patriarchy hurting men… In exactly the way feminists have been describing for decades.

That’s correct. The reason it was there is that some games were written assuming a specific processor speed. When faster processors came out, the games ran too fast. The turbo button let you play older games on your new computer.

Y’all remember the turbo button?

I remember summers without smoke.

I keep being told that the canals used to freeze over and people would skate on them.

“Should we watch the show in East Coast or West Coast time? Or just watch all the episodes for the whole season without ads as they’re sending them to local stations?”

Yep.

“Boy” is only the opposite of “girl” if you’re working within the framework of gender binary. One could equally argue that “non-binary” is the opposite of both “boy” and “girl.”

Similarly, “Right Libertarian/AnCap” and “Tankie” are opposite ways to justify authoritarianism and atrocities (dictatorship of the “market” vs dictatorship of the proletariat). “Anarchist/Left Libertarian” is the opposite of both because both assert that non-consentual hierarchies are normal and excuse the atrocities that come with them while anarchism rejects the validity of non-consentual hierarchy.

Fixed:

Ancap: *incoherent statement*

Tankie: *heavily cited mix of cherry picked accurate and utterly incoherent statements with a sprinkling of denying atrocities*

Ancap: *nonsensical response indirectly quoting literally Hitler*

Anarchist: *blocks lemmy.world*

It is not the opposite of tankies unless the continuum you’re looking at is awful politics.

That’s also my understanding.

In the US it’s really common to have an accelerator.

Also eBikes in the Netherlands don’t have acceleators unless they’re illegally modified.

I feel like this is some kind of backrooms mimic.

Exactly, also, anyone taking the gun and the bullets has obviously never used a handgun. Your chances of doing any damage is pretty low without a ton of range time, which takes bullets. Hand guns aren’t accurate at any kind of range so you’d make some loud noises and that’s about it. If you did manage to actually hit anyone, an Archer would kill you from way beyond your effective range and just take the gun and any remaining bullets.

The gun is the absolutely least useful thing on that list after the bullets.

Exactly.
