@Metamedia As for incels? Guess they just don't trust the system, dunno -

@Metamedia Yeah a while ago I had this sudden realization of "what's up with femcels? Can it really be that hard to get laid? Most men can just be approached by women and asked for sex and they'll immediately say yes"
So I went and looked at them and came to the conclusion that most are actually physically attractive, they just have horrible personalities and absurd standards for partners.
It seems the thing that these types of people have in common is that they perceive the opposite sex as an alien species that has to be conquered with trickery, they never seek true union, they become resentful of their attraction because they can't connect and don't want to learn how.
Reminds me of an incel I once saw who spent 5 years masturbating to nothing but pictures of insects because he was so resentful of the sexual hold women had over his psyche lmao -

"B-but what if you regret it" didn't stop me from making permanent decisions about my body and I don't see why it should stop a person from transitioning either -

BEING ALIVE is about making decisions you might regret, just grow up -

@arcana @icedquinn @Moon @zakiuem @thendrix It's a fine line. The idea that children don't know what they want is ridiculous. Children know without hesitation their favourite colour, their best friend. They always know what they want to do. They refuse to eat foods they dislike. They know what they hate.
But at the same time, they're staggeringly open to influence. The reason I hated teaching them was because they would chameleon to my expectations. It made checking for legitimate understanding almost impossible. I'm convinced that the only way to really do that is to see if they self-initiate in the same sphere (for example, a child who is taught superficial facts about dinosaurs who goes on to check out a book on dinosaurs from the school library and read it hungrily.) So this makes checking for understanding in "necessary but boring" spheres (subjective dependent on the child's preferences) excruciatingly difficult. I don't like subjecting them to sterile exams, but I can't think of a better option.
I agree that it's better to have this kind of open knowledge-sharing relationship with your parents than with random strangers for sure. I'm thankful mine were so open. When I got warned about stranger danger as a very young child, I kept asking "why" in response to presentations of danger, until I was taught about gay rape. THAT definitely made me wary of strange men in bathrooms lol. If my parents had just said "durr because I told you so" I'd have rejected them. -

@arcana @icedquinn @Moon @zakiuem @thendrix As a child I was given a general chest full of assorted costumes. Some were female, like pretty princess dresses. I tried them on. It was interesting, but I didn't like it much. I favoured the pirate costume above all.
My best friend really took to the dresses. His dad had a seethe fit over it and threatened my mother.
As a teenager, he came out as gay.
I think experimentation is positive. I'm glad I was presented with that choice, just like I was presented with choices such as playing house with girls (which helped me face the fact that I'd always wanted a wife, even as a very young child) and opportunities to transgress (such as peeking on girls in the bathroom.)
In a non-sexual sphere, I'm glad I also had the opportunity to get into danger. I explored my town a lot. I trespassed on private property and construction sites. I made secret bases. I could have stolen, but decided I didn't want to. I'd rather just see.
Children aren't sterile beings who need to be coddled with carefully curated stimuli. -

@netdoll Yeah it is. Hatred takes over sometimes. "MILLIONS MUST DIE" is easy to embrace. I thought I was beyond it and then that FUCKING video where some communist latched onto Buddhist cognitions of Anatman and Pratītyasamutpāda in support of "Acid Communism" set me off.
It's all about calming down. Quoth Deus Ex: "You can't fight ideas with bullets." -

@netdoll That's a real fuckin feel and a trap I really need to make sure I don't fall into myself. -

@netdoll Like, seriously, even if only 5 people had been rounded up and killed in the holocaust wouldn't that have been sufficient evidence for its horror? Selecting people based on apparent characteristics and just shoving them off to death camps? The fact that it WAS evidently MILLIONS of people makes it worse. But even if it was only 2 million, or 200,000, or whatever figure, isn't that fucking bad enough? Isn't that a good reason not to repeat it? -

@netdoll From what little I know of Finkelstein, his allegations regarding the holocaust seem reasonable, citing mathematical evidence and clear examples of false testimony (e.g. "It was real in my mind.") If the excent of the holocaust IS exagerrated then it seems to me to have been a stupid move. A watertight historical argument for it having been a real (and horrific) event is very easy to make, and it would have left no "wiggle room" for holocaust denial.
Perhaps I'm wrong on Finkelstein though. My familiarity is only passing. -

@netdoll Zizek is an interesting character for sure. A lot of these Marx-y philosophers fill me with rage (fuck you Fisher) but he actually has some good shit to say. -

@netdoll I wasn't paying attention to them, my CHUD HISTORY involved a stint in GamerGate and when I started seeing my fellows deferring to RT constantly and orbiting the likes of Milo Yiannopoulos I realised "IT'S OVER" and bailed. That's pretty fucking wild. I had no idea. -

@netdoll Wait, what? how are those two things conflated? My crypto lore is very weak, I know just enough about Bitcoin and Monero to use it to buy things, that's all. -

@netdoll Wait, they were responsible for that?
