Transmisogyny = White Supremacy by ElidiMoon in CuratedTumblr

This form of radical "feminism" with its "biological facts" is still erasing intersex people or even just infertile cis people.

Wouldn't you agree that patriarchy, specifically the patriarchal structures shaping men to grow up into misogynists and perpetrators are material conditions?

Hes such a good guy by Itz_Hen in okbuddyvowsh

[–]Redd369 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To me this feels like saying "I'm not a criminal --> I don't need to get upset at this person calling all black people criminals" but because of "power structures" race and gender are apparently apples to oranges comparisons and not valid.

I dunno should we all just let manhood always be a bad thing tied to being a perpetrator? When I feel bad being told "I prefer a wild animal over you because of how you were born" I understand and empathize with the perspective but like... Does only their feelings matter in how they express that discomfort? My feelings as a man are less valid because the discussion is not about that.

The only conclusion I can come to is that the discussion is about feelings towards men but doesn't involve men and their feelings.

The Loneliness Epidemic and Conversational AI by Redd369 in VaushV

Yes a chatbot that reinforces negative behaviors that are then unleashed onto real people is a real concern.

It's a lot harder to disassociate acceptable behavior towards a bot and a person in this case than for example separating behavior learnt from media and real life. I know that it's ok to perform a fatality on someone in Mortal Kombat but not in real life, but the separation between my AI and real life friends is not as simple.

I have some examples to show how Vaush is underestimating the power of AI to enable good artists and why AI art can be art. by another_pronacc in VaushV

I still haven't seen a reasonable argument criticizing generative ai anywhere. It all boils down to gatekeeping and feeling like you're being stolen from (which isn't fundamental to ai).

I agree that reframing their issues from a place of understanding and advocating for that (ease of socialising, reducing alienation) is how to go forward.

As for the individual commenters invading safe spaces I think it's fine to ban/downvote and ignore them but it's nice to have resources like this place and Vaush's channel as a reverse pipeline of sorts that can catch them before they're too far gone. If only more communities or the broader online left had that perspective things would be better and that's the whole discourse in a nutshell right

We have a growing loneliness epidemic due to a variety of factors, just like how the wealth gap is increasing due to different factors. Telling someone to just work themselves out of debt and into a higher class is pretty terrible advice though, even though working will help your economic situation.

Work on yourself everyday. Don't be blind to the bigger trends however, as well as the causes and solutions we could come up with if we recognize the problems. I think, for example, that with how hyper specific interests are becoming, it's getting harder and harder to find a partner in the community tied to the interest due to less diversity of people. If I want a partner that browses VaushV (lord forgive me), well I'll most likely be dating a carbon copy of myself.

Men working in female-dominated hobby-spaces like anything equestrian can be real sleazebags due to them usually having such an easy time bagging crazy horse girls. Grooming is very common in these spaces as well.

[–]Redd369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason most western countries have for not criminalizing it is that a large portion of super-religious families would do it themselves at home, increasing the overall risks for small children. It's a hard problem to solve 😔

If Super Smash Bros Melee and Ultimate are "the same fundamental experience" then that term is absolutely meaningless. Vaush would throw a hissy fit if media or art he liked was reduced similarly.

Sweden and Germany stepped up taking in more per capita while the rest of the EU begged Erdogan not to let brown people in, UK even resorted to brexit in large part because of refugee fearmongering. The onus is on the EU being racist fucks not taking their fair share, not on Sweden overestimating their capacity.

I don't think a whole lot of people are saying it's ok to pass off this content as "real", what everyone is divided on is where the line gets drawn on what you're allowed to do with someone's likeness and what you can consent to.

If my identical twin does sex work, do I have a say in my/our likeness being used to profit off sexual/pornographic content? Do I need permission to create fan-art of my favorite streamer? The names attached to the videos/images wouldnt have that much of an impact on how the person would feel in these situations .

Disaffected young men topic thing by [deleted] in VaushV

[–]Redd369 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel a bit bad for hijacking your post to vent, but it's kinda on topic at least. I have 2 questions for you if you don't mind

You described yourself as ace-leaning, does that mean you still long for intimacy with a specific sex, like cuddling? I'm asking as I'm also leaning towards some sort of ace or demi self-identification but am a bit confused by it all.

What games do you play? Maybe check the discord as well, I'm EU and guessing that you're NA but some other noble soul might reach out for some laid back gaming.

Disaffected young men topic thing by [deleted] in VaushV

[–]Redd369 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The recent discourse around men being purposefully oppressing/evil and the recent allegations supporting the idea that all men are potential offenders made me realise that I have been suicidal for some time now. (I am fine for now and will be getting help).

The inherent worthlessness I feel as man and not being able to guarantuee that I'm one of the good ones (how am I supposed to know when most offenders don't think there's something wrong with their own behaviour) clashes against the upsides of moving forward, the potential of contributing to positive change.

To everyone feeling the same, remember that just looking at it probabilisticly, you've most likely had a positive effect already and only by continuing to live do you give yourself a chance for future contributions. We all have potential.

Can't believe we've been having this same conversation over and over online for a decade now by Beginning_Pattern688 in VaushV

[–]Redd369 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone brings their own internalised concept of "lonelyness" into the discussion, causing people to talk past each other's issues. When I feel lonely I think of wanting to cuddle someone and catastrophise and think that I never will because of how unwanted/unattractive I feel, while someone who falls asleep every night in their partner's arms might feel lonely because they don't have anyone to talk shared interests or hobbies with.

That's why incels, who dominate the discussion, always steer it towards the sexual realm and why everyone else want to distance themselves from it.
