Pretty sure it is some STEMlord's job to ensure the coupons and couponing apps are designed with precise calculation in order to not benefit the consumer in the long run but only appear that way.

He is supposedly the author of the book "Woke Racism" which has very predictable Amazon reviews. He seems to come across as an educated black guy giving libs permission to be angry about anti racism having "gone too far".

The only affection people experience for a while is through familial relations so I feel like young people (as in the pic) just use these terms as short hand while learning about things. I think explicit incest fetish is a leap of an assumption.

Hypothetically killing teenagers without remorse may socially ostracize you, yes

I've heard the idea that if men were more like women the world would be a better place (frankly still not totally unconvinced of this assertion), but her point that this particular type of submissive/docile woman that is being referenced in the aforementioned hypothetical is in fact manufactured in part by patriarchy is a great point.

In general though, feminism without class consciousness is very pernicious and from my US POV is pretty widespread among middle/upper class groups. It can be difficult to criticize because blatant misogyny is still such a common perspective here, so offering nuanced views on feminism to a bourgeois feminist can be difficult and often seen as hostile.

This is so so widespread that I am very curious about it.

One hypothesis I have is that people believe their sexual inclinations are completely separate from social and cultural influence. That the sexual preferences are somehow innate or beyond influence--even though they clearly are heavily influenced.

At the very least fucking keep it to yourself that you don't date black women or prefer dating east asian women you weirdo agghhh

Wondering if this is because that meme that went around about how some (white) men think about Rome at least once a day. Probably felt he was missing out so vomited up this nonsense.

For real, sitting here flabbergasted by this claim. I think it is interesting though, it highlights a very specific isolated Western dominated historical worldview to assume capitalism is naturally occurring. I demand more anthropology in school!
