エミュレーター 違法 is now only the 4th auto-complete suggestion. The first is エミューレーターとは (What is an emulator?) I guess there's been a sudden surge of lawlessness in Japan.

Oh, so Marxist-Netflixists aren't welcome here? Whatever happened to leftist unity?

It really is depressing how eternally relevant this meme format is.

You claim slavery is bad, yet you wear clothes. Curious.

It's almost as if there's no ethical consumption under capitalism.

And one she's probably completely unqualified for. I can only assume that the meritocracy loving conservatives will come out against this nepo baby diversity hire.

I discovered what appears to be the only bar in my current country of residence that specializes in Peruvian pisco in December 2022. At first I went just to try a pisco sour, which I've long been interested in. After getting the chance to revisit it over the holidays, I experimented with different varieties and ways of serving it, and realized a short tonic is my favorite way to drink it without masking its natural flavor.

Previously, I mainly enjoyed cocktails and didn't have any particular favorite spirit, so this is all very new to me. Should I be taking every opportunity I can to inform people of my fondness for pisco and how my refined tastes are beyond the comprehension of the plebs who enjoy lesser drinks like beer, wine, or vodka? Just how far should I go? Am I now required to be a dick to Chileans and go out of my way to remind them that their pisco is shit, an opinion that I certainly have come to after extensive research and experimentation to form my own judgement, and am absolutely not parroting from opinionated reply guys? Are there any gender studies scholars who can help me with this?

I know transphobes don't have a solid grasp of grammar, among many other things, but why would they think that "went" can only be used with singular pronouns? "They went to the store" is correct regardless of whether or not they is singular or plural. A spell checker can't even tell if "they" is being used as a singular pronoun, and it doesn't need to.

Climate change is making the Middle East uninhabitable. This can only lead to two different outcomes for the state of Israel. We will either see a second holocaust by Israelis choosing to remain in their unsafe homeland, or their citizens will have no choice but to flee and once again be dispersed among other states, undermining the Jewish people’s right to self-determination.

Do not be fooled by so called pro-Israeli American Jewish conservatives who receive funding from fossil fuel companies. There’s a very good reason Ben Shapiro defends Israel from the comparative safety of America, all while enabling the fossil fuel industry to bring about the downfall of the Jewish state. He knows exactly what he’s doing.

My textbook got really woke on me all of a sudden.

Conservatives are claiming they did it to chants of "beat that fucking Jew". Obviously that would be completely unacceptable, but the video doesn't seem very convincing to me. From what I can make out, all but one of the people are screaming yeah. There's a women who is definitely screaming "beat that fucking ...". I can't make out the last word, but it sounds like two syllables, with a rising intonation on the second one, which would be a really strange way to say Jew. I also wouldn't describe it as a chant, as there's no melody. It just sounds like shouting to me.

I have absolutely no qualms about criticising anti-semetic elements of pro-Palestinian protests, and think we should keep that kind of language out of them. Shouting "beat that fucking Jew" is absolutely unambiguously anti-semetic, but I'm not going to accept the right wing version of events without clearer audio.

The people commenting there are of course accepting it uncritically, and are calling for jail and deportations, like any small government free speech advocate would. I'm sure none of them got mad that time the news said people were chanting let's go Brandon.

Edit: I watched the video in the tweet too, and it sounded like it could also be "rip that fucking ... off." I don't know how anyone can be so confident about what the woman is saying when the audio is so bad and she's drowned out by everyone's screaming. One thing I can say is that the only chanting was "Free Free Palestine".

How come you guys have a house speaker but no techno speaker? Isn't Detroit's legacy just as valid as Chicago's?

You may wonder what lead to this, so I must confess that I made the mistake of claiming that Palestinians deserve basic human rights (my exact words were "I support an end to the occupation.")

I used to think human rights were unconditional, but then someone told me that Palestinians are actually homophobic, so as any rational person capable of critical thinking and nuanced thought would do, I abandoned all of my values and pivoted to support for apartheid.

They made an excellent point, namely that I should support the murder and displacement of homophobes, which is why I propose the following.

Every queer person in North America will come together and form a milita. I'll assume George Soros will pay for everything. For your first mission, you'll take over the state of Florida. I have it on good authority from Conservatives that the US military has gone woke, so I expect them to cooperate with you.

To any Floridians reading this, you have 24 hours to leave before you are crushed under the high heels of the Pink Army. You brought this on yourself by voting for Ron Desantis. Do not resist. Bigots deserve bombs. Anyone who is opposed to this is a homophobe who supports Hamas and is literally worse than Hitler.

QUEER PEOPLE HAVE A RIGHT TO DEFEND THEMSELVES!

I remember reading that article in 2015. I believe that guy actually claimed that he was no longer a white supremacist by the time he was in Ace of Base. Some of their lyrics definitely do sound very dog-whistley though.

[-] Umechan@hexbear.net 35 points 11 months ago

Even if someone might be hypothetically homophobic, I still do not support an apartheid and ethnical cleansing.

Even if we didn't accept that, what point are these conservative pundits actually trying to make? That we should support the murder of bigots/people with ideological differences? In that case, who's going to tell them that they'd be the first to go?

What I find most confusing is their insinuation that porn is inherently right-wing.
