I’m just imagining the keylogs for meta video editors looking like pages upon pages of

At least pills taste better than tablets.

Too much glass and metal.

(iPhone) Depending on the framing of dumbing down, an alternative camera app could be suggested. I use Halide to get rid of all the photo processing Apple does by default (which ruins night photos imo).

Yeah sorry, I wasn't trying to equate the two words, just the arguments to defend using them. I can agree that the words hold very different weights.

There's an argument to be made, even though "fellate" might be something that is done by a wide variety of sexualities, it has history and that history is as a homophobic insult. Sure, words can be reclaimed by the gay community, but the metaphor of sucking dick as a subservient action is so fucking pervasive (especially in discussions about politics for some reason) and it points towards unexamined patterns of language that are very harmful. Add on the borderline ableism at the end and it comes across as bad faith at the start, so it's no wonder a mod responds like this.

This sounds like the exact same argument my ex high school friends used to use when overusing the word "r*ped" when playing video games because it's apparently "just a metaphor for a power dynamic".

Your life is nice because of the death and destruction of those who your system deems to be lesser. If you can't be motivated to change things because you can't see the issue with the cost of your comfort, you're going to learn some very hard lessons once people you thought were on your side start fighting you.

Are you the caricature of someone who was given an extra money in a game of monopoly but believe to have earned your winning position through sheer strategy and "working harder"?

The unit of "drink" is not very specific. That martini or Rusty Nail is just as harmful as a 2% cider I guess. How about those 5 liter beer boots?

I got shadow banned (seemingly site-wide) after pointing out that the Biden and the Democrats’ messaging shifted from “Trump is a fascist” to “we have to think about unity!” after Trump got shot in the ear, which proved to me Biden et al. were either allied with fascists by protecting them from harm or never believed Trump was a fascist to begin with, which pointed to Biden (and his team and the whole democratic news media) being more closely aligned with Trump than they wanted people to know.

The tipping point for me was probably the line “if Biden actually thought Trump was a fascist and had an actual problem with that, he would’ve shot him on stage”

You’ve already hinted that you desire to or plan on leaving, so why do you care if someone carrying out white supremacy through military action beats out someone carrying out white supremacy through legislative action by voting to ensure the person who carried out white supremacy through military action newfound access to legislative power? Both deserve [redacted], not a vote.
