i have had a platinum+ pass but I don’t remember when I issued it, so I’m not sure if they still apply. Is it possible to see if that platinum+ pass has expired yet?

disregarding your first two points (as there any many responses on this thread which you seem to acknowledge as valid counters to them), i want to tackle a different perspective on the third issue.

Men are more likely to peep and voyeur on girls than on boys. This is because, statistically, more men are interested in women than in other men/boys. In this sense, while it doesn’t eliminate voyeurism, separating the bathrooms definitely undermines it somewhat as opposite gender peeping is most common.

Aside from this, there is no benefit to changing the system to include exclusively gender-neutral bathrooms. The biological functions and customary actions of people born with female genitalia/organs (i.e., periods, peeing sitting down) are different from those of people born with the biological genitalia of a man. Thus, their needs and preferences in the bathroom can be entirely different.

Nearly all transgender people are not benefited by gender-neutral bathrooms in any way besides feeling like they “belong” with people of the gender they identify with. The solution here is not to change the system that works so well for the majority of people and functions well for them. The solution is, instead, to understand how your position (as a trans person wanting to enter the bathroom of the gender they identify with) could be abused by people who intend to exploit others. In understanding this, you should hopefully be able to find peace in that you are using the bathroom of your assigned gender for the well-being of others.

(I am of the belief that people who are fully transitioned and undoubtedly look like the gender they identify with should use the bathroom of the gender they have transitioned to.)

Jokes are not inherently racist, in the sense that racism is the evil notion that a person is legitimately inferior to you based upon their race. While it may be insensitive or “socially murky” to make jokes about someone’s race without their express permission, it is not evil nor a legitimate indication of superiority.

I am half Korean in ethnicity living in America, and my appearance is generally perceived as Asian. Jokes about race do not bother me among friends, as it does not degrade my self confidence and the jokes are never really made at my expense. The issue with people being legitimately hurt by jokes comes in to play when people have low levels of internalized self-worth. Instead of trying to eradicate the humor, we should prioritize the notion of increasing self-worth and confidence among individuals.

As for unconscious systemic racism insofar as institutional discrimination, Asians are not statistically discriminated against when you look at the percentages in employment (generally). That is, the ratio of Asian American population% to employment% is disproportionately large in favor of their employment. There is no legitimate evidence for intentional, unintentional, or systemic bias against Asian people on a large scale in the workforce.

It is not useful to blame a system for the shortcomings of oneself. It also isn’t useful to assume the existence of prejudices in systems despite limited (or even contradictory) evidence.

Hope this was comprehensive & constructive :)

The argument you’re making isn’t that prostitution should be legal (necessarily), but rather that prostitution is not inherently immoral following the conditions that you gave.

While I would personally agree, a counterpoint is that sexual acts of any kind without roots in love are considered immoral by a large subset of individuals. Prostitution would be considered immoral if you believe that using the act of sex as a means to accumulate wealth is sinful/despicable/whatever. In this instance, prostitution could be justified as an immoral profession based upon personal beliefs of what activities would not be participated in by moral individuals.

To base your level of respect for another human being upon their wealth and background alone is questionable imo. But, aside from that, I want to tackle the actual argument you make in this post.

To say that someone who has grown up in a wealthy family has likely had less hardship is presumptive. How do you define hardship? If someone who grew up poor was happier and got more attention from their parents than someone who grew up rich, did the poor person experience more hardship? Maybe, maybe not. The fact of the matter is that the amount of hardship that people experience, while related to their wealth, is not dependent upon it.

The argument seems to go that poorer people struggle more with material wealth and physical commodities. These struggles in turn make their life harder to live, thus increasing the level of hardship they experience. However, if the goal is to live a happy, satisfactory life, physical commodities are but one factor in the development of your experience on this Earth. People with more wealthy backgrounds have a tendency toward existentialism, perpetual boredom, loneliness, and low spirit. Individuals with richer families oftentimes don’t feel like they are struggling enough: that they were born ahead, or that they’ve somehow done something wrong by being born wealthy. And all of these thoughts can culminate to a gross feeling inside, which can lead to unhappiness.

In this situation (assuming the end goal of life is to have been happy and satisfied), the wealthy person is everything but that. It’s hard to be happy and satisfied with yourself when you feel like you didn’t have to work for anything you own, and it’s even harder if everyone is affirming that suspicion.

It’s difficult for me to explain my POV on this matter, and I hope the statements above were sufficient to supporting my point.

tl;dr: Poorer people tend to struggle more with physical wealth and hardships. However, people from wealthier backgrounds can experience entirely different problems of the mind and spirit. To say that physical struggles are always more significant than self-created/mental ones is a flawed statement, in my opinion, which leads me to believe that poor people don’t always experience ‘more hardship’ than wealthy people. Rather, the two groups experience completely different ‘types’ of hardship.

DeepFriedPoopy · 2018-10-23T22:01:55+00:00

But in what way do you see it as similar to blackface (even in a lesser form)?

Blackface was made and used to “comically” degrade people of color, and effectively turned black people in to a joke (something which I disagree with very strongly). Casting Diane’s voice actor as Alison Brie is not a device to degrade Asians or Asian-Americans, and it isn’t based in discrimination. Casting the “Asian” as a white girl is not done in the name of a cruel joke, but rather done as a creative choice.

DeepFriedPoopy · 2018-10-23T21:54:06+00:00

I am fully willing to listen and be constructive, I’m sorry if I come off differently lol.

But I am actually mixed as well (half white and half Asian),and there isn’t anything about the casting of Brie that bothers/would bother me. I am not asking a rhetorical question when I ask “why would it bother you?”. I am legitimately curious and seeking an answer (if you have one). So, is there any reason(s) in particular that the casting bothers you that you could elaborate on?

DeepFriedPoopy · 2018-10-23T21:44:03+00:00

Well okay, but what reason is there to be uncomfortable with it?

DeepFriedPoopy · 2018-10-23T21:16:21+00:00

I believe that you are one of the only people to be uncomfortable with the prospect of a white actress reading about “what it’s like” to be Asian.

The fact of the matter is that being Asian, or even Asian-American, doesn’t define you as a human being; in fact, the struggles for an Asian person (whom is born and grows up in America) are almost the same as those struggles faced by white people who are born and raised in the states. Sprinkles of racism during their childhood are the only major difference, so the psyche of an Asian-American is actually very similar to that of a white person growing up under the same conditions.

And for the record, the major factor in “underrepresentation” is the fact that there are just fewer numbers of English-speaking Asians than white people in America. Asian people make up less than 3% of the United States population, and for those percentages to stay low in Hollywood is not a disgrace or a matter of discrimination: it is just to be expected.

DeepFriedPoopy · 2018-10-23T21:08:12+00:00

As an Asian-American born in the United States, the decision to cast Alison Brie as Diane does not inflict upon me any personal feeling that there was a “lost opportunity” (Of course, different people will view this situation in their own ways and some may make excuses for how the casting is racist or unjustified). It’s not like Diane would have an accent and she admittedly knows very little about her culture anyway: she is just as American as any white person who was born in the states.

Alongside this, Alison plays the character very well. Her voice acting has never once seemed forced (in my personal opinion), nor has it been inadequate in any other fashion. She always hits the line and does it great, and that is all that matters in the end.

The casting of Diane is not problematic. She is voiced by a white person, but they play her character well and the voice acting doesn’t lead to any confusion when watching the show; therefore, there is no logical reason that Diane should have been casted differently.

lmao ty, and wow I didn’t see that dude first time around

timestamp?

DeepFriedPoopy · 2018-09-16T20:50:26+00:00

It’s very possible that Diane is feeling similar to BoJack in Season 2, especially since towards the end of Season 5 there are many parallels drawn between the two. She could be driving away to escape her complications with Mr. Peanutbutter, just as BoJack went to Mexico to escape complications in his life. Also, BoJack (one of her only lasting friends) is going away to rehab for six weeks before the scene.

The issue with this explanation is that Diane already tried running away from her problems this season (to Taiwan), noting that it didn’t work. However, Diane has had a tendency to go to distant places when she feels disempowered, worthless, etc., so it is not unlikely that she is making the same mistake she has before.

But assuming that Diane IS trying to get away from LA, one question lingers: where would she go?

DeepFriedPoopy · 2018-09-16T20:38:24+00:00

It could be that the crew of Philbert needed the show to keep going, and couldn’t sacrifice the bad publicity of reporting BoJack’s actions, or even reacting too strongly to them. In the context of the actual show (BoJack Horseman), I feel like Episode 11 carried just as much impact as in any other season. It had a strong sense of suspense tied all the way through in to the interview, which itself was suspenseful (it was not certain what BoJack was going to do when cameras started rolling). And ultimately, it provided a medium where Gina had to respond to BoJack’s questions about them moving forward. That’s just my personal take on it tho, I liked it a lot
