    I know right, people hold elaborate ceremonies that cost many thousands of dollars and invite all their family and friends for sometimes a week at a time just to announce, "Hey everybody, we're fucking!" They even get small children to participate in these shameless sex rituals, they should all be locked up for child abuse.

    Ban marriage.

    You know its basically an MLM scam for rings and jewelry? Marriage wasn’t big with rings until jewelry companies thought they could capitalize on it. Modern day marriages are scams to get people to pay a lot of money for an excuse.

    It's also the smallest community unit that we can reasonably be broken up into whilst still reproducing labourers for the economy.

    The more society is ground down and split apart the less we can help one another out of solidarity, and the more we have to spend on housing, transport, and every other appliance that needs to be duplicated for each separate dwelling, and the more dependent we are on money, capital and the state to provide for our needs. The lonelier we are, the more profitable we are and the less power we have.

    You could argue that a lot of this was just a gradual evolution of society into a form that suits the ruling class, but also neoliberalism was a deliberate project to bring this about. Thatcher knew what she was doing when she said, "There is no such thing as society, there are individual men and women and there are families."

    Love the reply, that was my first thought. Any idea what you did to freak this guy out lol? He seems completely insane.

    Wish I could see his post history, but sadly I just get a 404

    When I look at their comment history, it actually looks more concerning. In the, "legitimately concerned for this person's mental health to the point that one probably shouldn't take whatever they say too personally sense".

    Ah thanks, I had missed that! I hadn't slept yet at the time so didn't even notice their instance. Also don't think I've ever tried to look at a mastodon instance. Which Lemmy client do you use? I feel like mine hasn't updated for a while now that I think about it

    Honestly I saw this after it said deleted, but frankly my guy i have zero idea what your rant even means. Are you like....mad bugs is dressed in drag?? Are you upset pug specifically posted it?

    Did you miss the part where bugs has been around since the 1930s, and has been crossdressing at least since the 50s. One could hate Lola since she was created specifically for Space Jam and that was solely to sell fucking shoes, but BUGS? This image could have been made anywhere after 1940 (even with the obvious Female Bugs) and gets a "haha that's so bugs bunny!"

    Your opening rant was so incoherent and your...apparent(?) Accusation that Pug is.....projecting? In denial? I dont even know because it's so off the wall. The only conclusion I can come to is you saying Pug is projecting their identity via a crossdressed bugs bunny meeting lolas parents. Boiled pizza is the only visual shrug that accurately summarizes how much I do not understand your position.

  • My theory is they're having all sorts if stuff kindled in them right now and dont know how to deal with the feelings.

    I think the right move is to reach out, because it looks like theyre into some stuff that coukd get real fucked up without an adult conscience in the room.

    While we're at it don't get me started on people who have these giant bookshelves, practically floor to ceiling, then when you go to visit it's all the woke books, subverting fiction motifs, and really dense theory that shows they really take kindness and truth seeking seriously - it's like, I get it you're smarter and more empathetic than me. But it's not like you have to throw it in my face. I can see their big beautiful bookshelf from the sidewalk for fuck's sake.

    I've definitely had straight people throw their sexuality in my face. I don't even think it's a problem, most humans are sexual beings and we all exist on a bell curve of how much we like to express that.

    Have you considered the issue you take specific to people from the LGBTQ community could be reflection of your view of them rather than a consequence of their actions.
