Also generalizations are totally fine when they’re at women’s expense but when they’re about men you’re actually hurting the entire leftist cause. Right right right

Criticizing men broadly is unforgivable, because there are SOME men who don’t do the things you’re criticizing, but using rhetoric that demeans ALL women gets a pass because it’s completely normalized and actually rewarded

I think it’s interesting how if you describe gendered expectations backed by significant data you will be demeaned as a man-hater but if you regularly do stuff like casually using sexist language toward women you’re just considered normal

Why do men need an exclusive vision of virtue? Why don’t they want a universal, ungendered ideal of a good life? Why won’t they share in that striving with us?

One thing I always want to ask these masculinity entrepreneurs is why men can’t look to women as role models, and can’t see in women models of human virtue and thriving that are worth emulating. After all, women look to men for these all the time.
Sure, Galloway is better than Peterson
But he still believes the natural order of things requires men to be supreme. Men must protect, provide and procreate. It's dressed in progressive language, but it's fundamentally a patriarchal box to trap men in

If you want to learn to make art, there are countless people out there willing to help you. The only thing is, you have to be willing to try. The AI pushers want what they perceive is the kudos for having made the art, but they don't want to try.

at the other end of genAI "art" is nothing. there is no sentient being, no experience we are being asked to share in, no mind to marvel at, to wonder about. this is why people call it "soulless." there is no other side, it's just... noise

at the other end of art is the knowledge that someone FELT something, and the art is your pathway into empathy. cave paintings from 30 thousand years ago have an "other end," the people who were there, who did this, who FELT something about it, and we can only be in awe and wonder what they felt

It's so interesting that in the name of practicality we are urged to avoid any practical action; in the name of redemption we are urged to exonerate people who have shown no interest in redemption; in the name of civility we are urged to overlook the cruelty of those who scorn all civility

that’s not a “radical feminist” position! it sure as shit isn’t a puritanical one either.
people turn into little fascists so quickly when women put up the most reasonable fucking boundaries in existence. yes that includes weaponizing progressive jargon and therapy speak to justify the behavior

not a fan of how many people cry about “radfems” to delegitimize women who are like “don’t sexually harass me or other women.”
like it’s not actually hard to be normal about women and see our personhood. sexual harassment is like layer 1 of trying to control us because someone sees us as objects
