Yes, yes, conservatives don’t care at all about other people or what they think BUT HOW DARE YOU JUDGE THEM OR CRITICIZE THEM IN ANY WAY.

So, your standard for not being a transphobe is “wrote a gay character who didn’t groom his students.” Sounds about right.

“So tired of people labeling JK a transphobe”

Jesus Christmas. That fucking thumbnail for the interview at the end of the article is like a demon staring directly into your soul. Could we get a NSFL warning on that thing?

There are no good people involved in crypto or NFTs. 

Well that’s the thing, it removes race from the perpetuators, but not from the victims.

Yeah, that last paragraph there is what we call feminism.

I think a lot of dudes like to romanticise harsher times, because they think they’d thrive in such times. They consider everyone else beneath them, therefore their own mediocrity must have been forced upon them by a society that elevates others.

I love how "I like to do my own research" has become such a convenient shorthand for me to instantly dismiss the person saying it as a complete fúcking moron.

Referring to women as “females” is like the free space on a MRA / incel bingo card. It’s fucking weird and gross, and a dead giveaway that they don’t see women even remotely as equals.

Isn’t judging people by their actions like the one thing we should judge them for? I get it if you want to stick it out with a bad actor family member because there’s a lot of social baggage in those kinds of relationships, but JK Rowling is probably nothing to you. If you can reconcile their shitty behaviors…

“Loads of people say and do terrible things and nobody should be judged for it”

I did disown my grandmother for being a massive cunt and I don’t regret that decision. So there.

Also: wouldn’t “the ultimate embodiment of role playing” mean including consequences for one’s actions, particularly ones established in the lore of the world?

Y’all are missing part of the story. It’s not the court hearing that resulted in his firing — Cartoon Network has been well aware of that for a couple years now — it’s the revelations that Roiland reaches out to underaged girls on social media in hopes of sexual encounters.

Counter: what if you’re leading a team of five people and everyone is amazing. This policy forces you to pick one of them as the “worst”, and suddenly that person’s financial and employment situation takes a direct hit.

This is sociopathy and sociopaths. The structure of the modern world and its ‘economy’ both rewards and incentivizes them and their behavior, which should come as no surprise, given that sociopaths are the ones controlling society and writing its laws. Built by and for sociopaths. What we’re seeing is the perfectly…

Uh, no. Maybe at some jobs I’ve had, but I work in an office now full of talented, dedicated people who bust their asses every day and consistently hit targets and generate verifiable growth. (Coincidentally, it is also a place which regularly prioritizes the financial, physical, and mental wellbeing of employees.)

but are the actual shitty workers getting called out? or they don’t get picked because they’re friends with so and so all buddybuddy
