So it will fit right into Meta’s work culture then!

First world problem. Rest of the world is afraid that a tick bite will give them Lyme disease and the US is afraid it will make them allergic to burgers? And they expect everyone to feel bad for them?

Absolutely

Learning is woke. True patriots stick to their misconceptions for life.

Do people actually use stuff like this? Like who has ever needed help reading a text message?

Christ was an asshole too. People who haven’t read the bible give him way too much credit.

He’s gonna be real surprised when YHWH sends him to hell for violating the commandments (thou shall not kill and don’t take the lord’s name in vain).

The US itself is a risky and inefficient project.

Arguably that’s because they were basically conquered and made a vassal of the country that dropped bombs on them.

The cool thing about this is you can just arbitrarily pick which part of the cycle you consider the “start” of the conflict in case you want to selectively accuse one side of being the aggressor.

It’s the correct amount of paranoia. The issue is society has normalized completely not giving a shit about your own privacy to the point where any attempt at preserving it is seen as abnormal.

Reading it back I can see how I might have come off as arguing with the OP. I had just intended to add some context in general around why “straight pride” isn’t a generally accepted thing but gay pride is, because whenever this comes up you usually get at least one person asking "what, so we’re supposed to be ashamed of being straight now? That’s just discrimination in reverse!”

“Straight pride” isn’t a thing. It’s purely a reactionary response to gay pride.

The point of gay pride is for gay people to show that they’re not afraid to be who they are in the face of systematic discrimination. It is specifically countering the culture of gay shame that had been the norm in the past. Straight people are already the overwhelming majority and have never been oppressed for their sexual orientation. There’s was never any shame associated with it so it makes no sense to proclaim that you’re “proud” to be straight.

It’s like someone who finished a marathon expressing their pride for their accomplishment, and some loser who has to make everything about themselves says “well I sat on my ass all day and I deserve to be proud of that too!”

The issue is not that it’s not okay to be proud of being straight, you’re welcome to feel pride all you want. The issue is when you but into someone else’s moment and make it about yourself.

This is so poorly written I have no idea if it’s sarcasm or not.

They have the same mentality as the people dunking witches in the middle ages. “It’s fine to kill them because they’ll go to heaven if they’re not a witch Jewish.”

Tell them to leave their front door unlocked. They should have no problem doing that, and if they do, call the police on them because it means they’re hiding illegal activity in their home. /s

Doesn’t Israel claim that Iran imprisons Jews? They can’t even pretend to keep their propaganda consistent, or worse, they actually believe it and wrote any hypothetical imprisoned Jews off as necessary sacrifices.

Nihilism. I’ve fully accepted that humans are definitely going extinct and I’m just along for the ride. It’s oddly comforting to realize nothing you do matters in the long run because your entire species and society has no future. I’ll focus on being a nice person to the few other humans that know me instead of trying to change the entire world, because realistically I can’t change the world. If I can make some positive impacts to a few other individuals before we all die, I’ll take that as a win.

Is that a healthy mindset? No. But I’m not a healthy person to begin with so I don’t care.
