Ironman doesn't seem very gay in this picture. It would be a queer boner to take dick from him.

(Iron man doesn't seem very happy in this picture. It would be an odd mistake to take advice from him)

    That particular panel is a hoax.

    This is real.

    Edited. Original panel says 'advice', not dick.

    The common refrain, "it's not a lie it's a [near meaningless term]!"

    Ah yes, the "near meaningless term" being only the centerpoint of this community, what a great analysis you've provided

    "dude they used the rock solid defense of 'this doesn't have to conform to reality because it's a widget' so you can't say that's dumb. It's a widget community! Triple stamped it no erasies!"

    ...however, this panel is from 2022.

    Funny how that particular slang term kind of shriveled up got tucked away.

    I don't believe you. I think Marvel was around in a time where it was normal for two bros to give each other the D to cheer one another up.

    Boomers and their casual insults across all media. Is Captain America not manly enough to accept therapy without insulting his friend?

    If only people could accept that English being a living language isn't just about the past, but words are changing now, and that's OK.

    This is for the people who gouge their own eyes out when they hear people say "unalived"; the people who (suspiciously) insist on the clinical definition of pedophile; and "it's called a magazine actually" gun-brains.

    "Unalive" is stupid NOT because language changes and ree, but because it came about via over-censorship by megacorporations.

    it wasn't over censorship. It was them choosing to not show children stuff that probably talks about adult themes, like death. Because maybe you shouldn't be talking about blowing someone's head off to children, right? Sane decision.

    Then influencers decided they wanted money and more money meant avoiding the algorithm from noticing you talk about adult themes, so they show more users ie children, and kids love watching weird shit especially if it's talking about adult themes. Then you get a bunch of weird fucking influencers talking about people "unaliving themselves" and targeting children viewers

    I get what you're trying to say, but no we don't need to be teaching our kids to be afraid of topics like death or god forbid cursing.

    While I agree, I also think we have a responsibility to use language as a tool to be fair and precise. How should we react when for example far-right people start using the word "groomer" about LGBTQ people in general? Should we push back, or nod and say "interesting, this usage is catching on I guess"?

    Also SAed instead of raped. Then there is PDF-file.

    The reason is more due to the algorithm searching for words to censor, strike, or other reduce the likelihood of recommendation. Not natural language change.
