What “stance”? ASD is tracked and its prevalence studied by the CDC - that’s a fact.

Literally nothing in the article says that. Please quote where it suggests the rates are leveling off.

It shouldn’t - this rise has happened at the same time that vaccination rates have dipped. They’re already mistaken that correlation equals causation, but now they can’t even show correlation.

I don’t know - have people stopped misconstruing a perfectly benign quote and pretending in bad faith that it’s antisemitic yet?

How about this: go fuck yourself, you useless piece of shit. Do better: the people around you deserve it, and I guarantee they can’t stand you.

Uh... nope, you’re just a fucking scumbag. You’re also a coward if you don’t tell them up front that you’re not tipping. Here’s a tip for you: be a better person. The people around you fucking hate you.

Morality and legality are two separate things. Are you really an adult in 2019 and don’t understand this? Apologies if you’re actually 14.

Good thing human languages, especially English, never change or grow in any way. You’re definitely never going to be disappointed by another new piece of slang, meme reference, or an idiom you’re unfamiliar with.

If all you’re missing is “2 lines of dialogue,” try using your imagination like we do for every other movie in the world. Two lines of dialogue does not constitute “character development.”

I hope you have the exact same gripe about Palpatine, because he had ZERO character development in the original trilogy.

“Telling on anyone who crossed you” is very different from “reporting verbally abusive behavior to HR.” There’s a difference between good-natured joking and being called a “f***ot.”

It’s about advocating for a productive and healthy workplace. If people DON’T report abusive behavior, then it gets normalized to the…

I have many male friends, and they simply don’t talk that way, whether women are present or not. So if YOU think that thoughtful, kind men don’t exist, I’m here to tell you that YOU have a piss-poor understanding of human beings. You don’t have to live with shitty, toxic masculinity all the time. That’s a choice that…

What? I’m honestly not sure where you’re coming at with this comment? I work at a small business owned by women, with a majority-female staff, where toxic behavior like that in the article is not tolerated.

Bravery in calling out abuse, whether directed at oneself or others, is part of what I consider a BETTER…

I NEVER said I do nothing toxic - that’s asinine. We are all culpable in this culture of toxic masculinity. But your “whataboutism” is foolish. Pretending that calling out toxic behavior is equally toxic is just piss-poor reasoning. Yes, I believe that “real masculinity” involves empathy, kindness, and standing up for…

The fact that toxic masculinity is extremely prevalent in male-dominated professions is not in any way a justification for continuing it. That you think this is some kind of argument in its favor is completely baffling. That’s like defending pedophilia by pointing out how prevalent it is in the Catholic church.

I get out all the time - I just don’t tolerate abusive assholes in my life. I’m sorry if you do. Real masculinity requires enough bravery to advocate that people treat each other with empathy. Tolerating abuse of yourself or others is toxic and cowardly.

Nope, I work at a small business and we all get along swimmingly. If you’re too big of a coward to demand to be treated better, that’s on you. I suggest being braver - that’s what real masculinity looks like.

I’d rather be a sensitive, thoughtful person (what morons like you call a “pussy”) than an abusive shithead like you. Be better - the people in your life are fucking sick to death of your toxic bullshit.

No, you won’t report it because you’re a toxic abuser yourself. Be better - the people in your life deserve better than a shithead.

I’m a man, and I have NEVER been verbally abused where I work. If I were, I would report it and expect management to take serious action. Stop being complicit in abusive situations - no one should have to put up with that, regardless of their gender identity.
