I love when people get genuinely upset about this
There are too many aliens in star wars. There should only be like four species: humans, tall bear man, little green man, and squid man. Star Trek was good about this until recently and now also has Too Many Aliens. They should have humans, forehead man, ear man, and green man.

valid, they were figuring things out at first but settled for a long while but now are back to the spaghetti-wall method for introducing new aliens

Starting my new YouTube channel the Seahorse Traditionalist
2040 trend: seahorse men. Some flabby guys who get women to menstruate on their fat bellies and then jerk off over it to create hundreds of babies! This is what nature tells you!!!!

last thing, why is he expected to be more nice than other are to him? Why is the onus of organizing on him? I think there is a second order effect of lowered expectations or lack of agency on the majority-language-speakers to be nice and organize themselves and include the english speaker.

Is there a concern that if his story is true then it undermines teh narrative of structural racism or power dynamics? I don't think it does. I think it's just illustrative of the Human Condition. You don't need to excuse discrimination against him nor excuse white supremacy ideology.
February 10, 2026 at 5:52 PM
why is his story met with skepticism? I loathe to bring up "anti white racism" but it's extremely Not Hard to imagine a group of angry people un/consciously picking a scapegoat who shares cosmetic characteristics of their oppressor?

had to unfollow someone who replied to the story of the irish guy in ice custody reporting anti-english-speaking discrimination with "were you nice to them?" and "you could have said organizing is difficult across language barriers" mf he is a prisoner in an illegal jail, get off his back

ah hell the robot men can stay

sorry if unclear but that's under the umbrella of "ear man"

you, stupid: wolf packs and lions prides show its natural for an alpha male to assume leadership, ergo women shouldn't vote

me, smart: ant hives show it's natural for one woman to give birth to all the babies, all female, save a choice few breeding males each season, ergo men should die after sex

I guess my point is I don't like it when people compare human societies to wolf packs or lion prides, then draw conclusions that it's "natural" for men to be Alpha or whatever. We're not those animals! I'm going to become a Formicidae Traditionalist. One queen gives birth to all children
