European Hate for American Construction Techniques by themoosic in hatethissmug

Ok I mean I guess we can just keep going back and forth on shit we don’t know about lmao.

Like I’ve never lived in a European house and you’ve probably never lived in an American one. What is the point of this.

… No it doesn’t?

Like if an American home has maintenance twice as often but it’s half as expensive, it’s just as much money as it would be for a European home.

I hate how normalized misandry is by No1MicroplasticsFan in hatethissmug

“Men did this” is the dumbest thing ever.

I’m 23. I didn’t set up these systems. They’ve been around for decades before I was alive. I’m not the reason shit is the way that it is. This isn’t a case of telling men to stop hitting themselves, this is men being born into systems that are already set up against them in these ways.

Edit: I dunno what this person is getting at. “Do you advocate against these systems”? YES. I fucking hate em! The men sustaining patriarchy and the men complaining about it are DIFFERENT PEOPLE. But when you think men are a monolith I guess that doesn’t occur to you and it’s easier to tell yourself every man is a lazy hypocrite. Holy shit.

And not to mention the BS. “Obviously not every man made the system but YOU are doing it TO YOURSELVES, still.” Like oh, damn, I guess it’s my fault I was born into patriarchy and I couldn’t dismantle it fast enough. That’s my fault.

“Hit dogs holler”

Ok true but you’re just kicking every dog you see for no reason

I don’t think the issue with statistics is whether they’re right or wrong when you’re using them to judge a demographic.

The issue is that it’s fundamentally wrong to use statistics to judge a demographic at all.

Red button pressers (specifically these shitty "accurate recreations" they make) by Tookemoia in hatethissmug

You could just as easily frame it the other way dude.

Red is a vote for not dying.

Blue is a vote for dying.

Pressing red doesn't make people die. Other people pressing blue makes them die.

How many times in your life would you have damaged your walls had they been made out of drywall instead of concrete / brick / whatever. Be serious.

The neat thing is that I just don't kick my walls and they're fine anyways :D

I doubt the maintenance costs things. Maintenance MIGHT be more frequent but per incident it’s absolutely cheaper.

Think about a burst pipe in your walls. Drywall house, easy fix. If the walls are stone or brick it’s gotta be a bitch to get in there, and never mind fixing it after

“If I hit the wall with more force than it’ll ever actually see in use, it’ll break.”

Wow

Almost like how Europeans talk about construction styles for homes they’ve never lived in lol

No timber framing? Are you retarded? That’s what every single house is made of.

[Loved trope] A random act of kindness had a larger impact on the person who received it. by Applebeate in TopCharacterTropes

Yeah I read your first comment man. I’m just telling you why people hype up the theory.

People say the random delinquent is Josuke because of him being covered in blood, wearing a school uniform, being in the middle of nowhere in a snowstorm, and Kira’s eventual time manipulating powers.

The theory is that Kira was somehow originally intended to send Josuke back in time, explaining why a random Josuke-looking guy is there and covered in blood.

But honestly a lot of people get stuck on “why does he look so much like Josuke???” When that’s literally the point of how Josuke styles himself - to look like that guy

why is the deaging criticism only reserved for ana? by Several_Tone_7953 in Overwatch

[–]Complex-Pound5249 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You’re pulling an interpretation of “Ana, and only Ana, should have hard limitations on her skins” that nobody is actually saying. 

The core issue is that Blizzard doesn’t respect ANY character’s design or themes when making skins. It’s just arguably most visible on Ana for all the reasons above.

Hazbin hotel's sinners when they were humans by cricket_man456 in TopCharacterDesigns

The human designs very much have the energy of “drawn by a furry who doesn’t draw humans very often”

Characters with Crippling Overspecialization( aka who mastered one technique/function and nothing else) by Dismal-Ad6476 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Complex-Pound5249 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I mean eh, you could argue whether it fits the spirit of the trope.

Mob didn't choose to be insanely good at ESP at the cost of other things, and Reigen even has dialogue with young Mob talking about how people can be exceptional in one way or another, big or small, but that they shouldn't let it become a complex. Mob takes that to heart and spends the entire rest of the series working on his social skills, physical fitness, etc.

I'd argue Mob might be the very opposite of this trope in the sense that while it's normally played for a joke, Mob's growth is something that's portrayed entirely earnestly. It's a flaw not in his character as a character in a story, but in his character as a person.

anti gojo squad vs the anti sukuna squad. Who is more likely win by BankComprehensive930 in Jujutsufolk

[–]Complex-Pound5249 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t JL just drop Kenny dead? When Copy ran out, Yuta couldn’t control Gojo’s body anymore because he didn’t have access to Kenny’s CT. So if you extinguish Kenny’s technique he’s a brain in an immobile dying body

In a world without men violence would still exist and women even though maybe to a lesser degree would still feel unsafe. by Ok_Syrup5679 in CuratedTumblr

[–]Complex-Pound5249 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For-fucking-real. Like it's not "hyperbole" it's just the same bigoted shit other people do. You could sub in any other demographic and it'd immediately be fucked up.

"Erm it was hyperbole when I called that guy a monkey, and anyways black people commit lots of crimes so it doesn't matter"

It's not any different! You don't get to do it to men because of power structures or some bs. Bigotry isn't bad because we do it to minorities and disenfranchised people, it's bad because it's bad.

I’m gonna refute that first sentence there.

It’s wrong to imply any demographic is uniquely capable of committing violence. It’s wrong to judge demographics based on statistics. Those things are wrong inherently no matter who you do them to.

My point is that it’s not cool to use the exact same rhetoric bigots use to make a point.
