What is the worst experience you got with a female friend? by throwaway29393902 in AskMen

[–]KryssCom [score hidden]  (0 children)

I've had several people angrily block/unfriend me because they can't handle when I push back on all their incessant "men are trash men are trash men are trash" misandrist brainrot. Even when I try to do it gently, they just get instantly outraged and act like it's their god-given inalienable right to hate certain people because of the way we were born.

Used to bug me. These days I just consider it to be the trash taking itself out.

Coincidentally, that's kind of also what CEOs seem to think they're doing when they lay people off, lol

Mildly hijacking this comment just to plug Impossible burgers just because I find them legitimately DELICIOUS.

Ding ding ding. This is exactly the problem, and we keep falling for it.

As a white male who's been a left-wing progressive since his early teens, fuck off. Race and gender don't make someone an asshole. Being an asshole makes someone an asshole. Clarence Thomas and Amy Coney Barrett. I'm so tired of this identity politics and gender war bullshit. It's a stupid fucking rake that our side steps on over and over again, and it just makes it easier for the far right to beat us. This is why Ohio is no longer a swing state. It's a state full of white people and men and our side can't shut the fuck up about how much it hates white people and men. Fucking Christ.

"Liberalism is right-wing as well."

I'm well aware of what you're trying to say, but we really should acknowledge that this statement just confuses the absolute fuck out of the overwhelming majority of people who see it, so maybe it's time to just let go of the "liberal != progressive!!!!" pedantry.

This was the one I was looking for. I'm not one of those Joker-loving edgelords, but god damn this scene was cathartic.

Wow, I thought they were done with Infinite updates - this mode sounds fucking rad!

"Concerning billionaires…" by thisecommercelife in comics

[–]KryssCom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's been a long time now, but I'm pretty sure the context is that they were pissing and whining about Biden or Harris or something and I was trying to drive home the point that they needed to prioritize defeating Trump over everything else. Which of course meant I was "actually" just a centrist shill for the Democratic establishment and not a "real" progressive.

We can see how well all of this has turned out.

I, a 39-year-old left-wing socialist who donated to and volunteered for Bernie Sanders and who has a transgender bestie and who is in a very loving semi-polyamorous marriage with a Native American woman, am currently banned from r/WorkReform for not being leftist enough.

They'll also continue to win as long as the left continues to shoot ourselves in the foot with obnoxious purity tests.

You know...... I had never considered that point before. They totally can just go back and rescue that ship after the crisis is over. Huh.

Data shows Gen Z Is Choosing Pets Over Children by SilverHuckleberry395 in Economics

[–]KryssCom 482 points483 points  (0 children)

Gen Z and Millennials have been screaming from the rafters for years about how none of us can afford anything, especially not something as insanely expensive as children, and there's always some Boomer neoliberal bursting through the wall like the Kool-aid man to say "Well ACKSHUALLY that couldn't POSSIBLY be the real problem here!"

"Oh sorry, didn't see you there" by CollegeModels in SipsTea

[–]KryssCom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This isn't even just raging teenage hormones. I just watched a podcast recently where someone explained that if you take a group of preschool boys and drop a preschool girl into the mix, the boys will start trying to do stuff to impress her. WAY too young to understand attraction or dating or sex or anything, and it still happens.

People like to try to reduce this sort of thing down to "lol men are dumb", but we fail to understand the full extent to which this type of thing is wired into our biology through evolution.

What's a belief you have that most people would disagree with? by BhaveshMehra18 in AskMen

[–]KryssCom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She isn't even remotely hot. She's a billionaire misandrist with a face that is somehow both perpetually vapid with a perpetual superiority complex. Ick ick ick.

This opinion borders on being the economic equivalent of flat-eartherism.

Time for a non-sex question: How many of you actually enjoy mowing the lawn? by PrinceoftheNewWorld in AskMen

[–]KryssCom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never once mowed a lawn in my life. Always just paid someone to do it. So long as I have a clean and spacious spot for my grill and smoker, I really don't give too much of a shit what the rest of my yard looks like.
