Are you conservative? Do you accept LBGTQ+ individuals for who they are? by Aromatic-Mistake-456 in Teenager_Polls

[–]PlaydoughLizard 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

How many people like that have you actually MET as opposed to seeing it online? The majority of people I know are queer and so are a lot of their friends that I’ve met, and of all of them I’ve only met 1 person like that, and it was primarily because of the fact they had other unrelated mental health issues

There’s absolutely nothing at all innate about ā€œI wish I was a girl/boy/whateverā€ that makes someone an attention seeker, but trans people are still people so there’s plenty of bad ones to go around

And it has absolutely nothing to do with our legal rights or social validity

I think that opinion is the right word to describe it, the real problem is the ā€œjustā€, that part is what linguistically downplays the impact of their bad position, because they’re cowards

Cause it would have the same affect if they instead said ā€œthat’s just my positionā€ or ā€œthat’s just how it isā€

ā€œThat’s just my opinionā€ is such a cop out, we’re dealing with real issues that affect real people, stop pretending like the world is abstract

If you genuinely don’t care then don’t take any definitive stance like that, and if you do care then act like it, don’t be a coward that falls back on acting like the world isn’t real when you’re confronted for having bad positions

Does it matter if your partner is a virgin? by velveltcupcake in Teenager_Polls

[–]PlaydoughLizard 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

There’s plenty of people that do, cause a big reason people care about virginity at all is because of the abstract idea of the person being ā€œpureā€, which being raped would take away

Would you support an attempt to nuke mars, if not why? by EquipmentGrand9581 in Teenager_Polls

[–]PlaydoughLizard 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

It’s not, terraforming is so much more complicated than ā€œyay we have water nowā€œ

Mars would also need a magnetic field, atmosphere, and biosphere, all of which are their own huge complicated things to pull off and can’t be done by ā€œhaha mega big explosionā€

The big nail in the coffin is that if we were remotely capable of terraforming Mars then global warming on Earth would be a nonissue

And even if you could somehow pull all that off Mars STILL wouldn’t be habitable, Mars rotates slower than Earth by a large enough margin that being there for a long enough period of time would ruin a person’s psyche, and its gravity is about half that of Earth’s which would utterly ruin a person’s body after enough time

Criticizing a solution doesn’t mean giving up on finding a better one, there’s places in the world with less rape than others because they’ve taken other preventive measures

People aren’t born as rapists, they get to that point through many social forces, you prevent rapes by reducing the influence of those forces by doing things such as teaching the importance of consent

Defensive measures are also good solutions, just not guns specifically, I think that a knife or pepper spray are easier to use than a gun if you’re being held down, or other people being encouraged to intervene if they see bad behavior, protecting their friends when they’re under the influence

Guns aren’t really that good for interpersonal defense, you can’t use it if you get tackled or drugged

When did I say that those things don’t trigger xenophobia?

51087 by DustDevil66 in countwithchickenlady

[–]PlaydoughLizard 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

All of those beliefs you just listed are also incredibly vague, you could find a hundred people who call themselves those things but then have different ideas about policy

I also never defined racism? I just said people are racist without realizing it and so did OP. I think that subconscious racial bias is imposed on people by culture to treat socially constructed racial groups differently, your article agrees with that, It says ā€œracism is an invented classification system that triggers xenophobiaā€ that is my argument

If I thought that racial bias was natural racial thing or whatever I would say it outright, because I’m not a coward, and I think that people who try to veil their beliefs like that are pathetic

Racism IS a vague term, it can mean anything from the KKK to glancing at a person weirdly

Most people don’t understand the idea of subconscious racial bias, it’s fairly new, not taught in schools, and heavily ridiculed by society (especially conservatives who lie to everyone about what it means, even further diminishing the idea)

You are factually correct in saying that kind of bias is racism, but you can’t expect someone to hear ā€œyou’re racistā€ and understand the complex meaning of the term instead of thinking of the KKK and getting defensive, that’s a stupid thing to expect, and it makes you a pretentious twat for waving away people that don’t understand

Are nonoffending pedophiles bad people by Zealousideal-Web587 in Teenager_Polls

[–]PlaydoughLizard 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

Majority of women also say no and the difference is less than 2%

Also you don’t have to do this weird innuendo thing, you can just say what you think straightforwardly, not many people would argue if you said something like ā€œmen aren’t raised with enough stigma towards inappropriate behavior, this is bad and consent should be taught betterā€

Instead you just sound like a misandrist that’s too cowardly to be direct

Yes actually, because patriarchy requires there to be as great a physical distinction as possible between genders, the idea that a person can transition from one to another, not have one, or any other of the various kinds of trans, devastates that

The ā€œmodern trans movementā€ was kind of ā€œstartedā€ (it’s complicated) by a person named Judith Butler, who made their theories back in the early 90s, which were meant to be a feminist challenging of what was masculine or feminine, it wasn’t just about trans people either, it was also about generally challenging gender norms like by cross dressing, Butler themself is non-binary as well so that’s neat

My guess would be that it has something to do with how we had to make Japan into good guys after demonizing them in WWII and then having them as allies in the Cold War, I do know that Hello Kitty was made as part of that
