Your grammar teacher’s head would explode at this comment, with you for some reason taking issue with the singular gender-neutral version of “they”.
They/Them/Their have been used as singular gender-neutral pronouns for decades. Don’t know the person’s gender or talking about “the player”, use they/them/their.
I can count on one hand the number of times something someone else has posted has gone against the community standards for Facebook, but the one time I pushed back against an asshole calling for newspapers to die on the platform, I get a warning saying I’m being flagged for bullying and going against their community…
But my crazy, unhinged former friend from high school can post all the pandemic misinformation she wants.
Teach them science, unless it is climate change, evolution, disease transmission, or about the existence of gay people. Teach them civics, unless it is about the history of this country in anything other than a flag humping propaganda way, or about how elections work.
File assault charges.
It’s becoming so common for people to go maskless on public transit in Toronto. I really want to just start punching maskless assholes as I/they walk by.
You can’t walk into a store smoking because the smoke could hurt other people. Not wearing a mask and spreading deadly germs is no different.
I feel that the real danger is the violence and abuse. Giving abusive people a way to practice and work out violent scenarios is very dangerous. They aren’t blowing off steam or getting it out of their system. They are practicing for real life actions. The only real way to get it out of your system is to never give in…
The fundamental difference to me is that people aren’t going to grab a sword and try and scale a wall to attack a fort because they played assassins creed, but it is extremely common that women receive the kind of verbal abuse that people say to chatbots. A better comparison would be that people who spew racist and…
Do you really believe, especially how a lot of men actually view women and are perceived to view women, that a lot of these men would stop with just “abusing” these bots?
Right, but it’s that obvious that if they’re going to do that in this situation, they’re REALLY going to do it when it counts and actually gets them points by actually hurting other people.
My disgust is, primarily, at the behavior of people who would simulate assault, and that you aren't disgusted as well (and choosing to focus your useless rant on the blocking feature) leads me to believe that you're the type to do this.
Y’know..
Jesus Christ what a dark story.
Pretty sure trying to tell the Jewish people that they have not been oppressed throughout history is not going to win you any Jewish friends.
No reason to suspend Whoopi, she was technically correct being Jewish is not a race.
Oh pretty much all of Hollywood did that for YEARS. Now they’re just pretending Polanski doesn’t exist until he kicks the bucket so that they can have a “deep look at the art vs the artist” while never having to address decades of trying to enable his return to Hollywood.
In the UK they use the term “Visible Minorities”.
