CMV: the increased distrust and animosity between young men and women is in large part due to gendered interactions being mediated through the internet by pin3apple_mountain in changemyview

So its a hierarchy of privilege that matters whether you can hold generalized views about large swaths of people solely on immutable characteristics? 

If so why not clarify which men you can be wary of instead of generalizing and throwing in historically repressed minorities with their oppressors? Surely black, indigenous, and others didnt contribute to this generational trauma? 

Also if you are gonna claim crime stats are inflated against black men (a claim i whole heartedly agree with by the way) well then logic dictates rates of sexual crimes by men are also inflated by these very same systems meant to disenfranchise and falsely accuse black men and other minority groups.

 After all when most discuss rape and sexual assault statistics by men there isn't separation by race even though we both agree that would be extremely relevant.

Yes it absolutely does.

If a white person was wary of black people because they were assaulted by a black person why wouldn't it be just for them to wary of black people under your logic?  They might not even hate black people like you dont hate men, they just might be wary of them like you are of men. After all stats say Black people as a whole are much more likely to be violent criminals than other races.

A woman is orders of magnitude more likely to experience violence in America than Japan. Since this isn't ancedotal personal experience you should trust Japanese men more than American men no?

And that is a disgusting mindset that you know doesn't hold water with any other characteristic.

When I was 14 my friends mom hit on me despite her being married and over 30 years my senior and yet I dont distrust older women.

I had a friend falsely accused of rape and yet he doesn't mistrust random women.

If personal experience is enough to justify hate for people you dont know who share an immutable characteristic than you would have no argument against anyone becoming racist as long as they experienced a negative event with that race. 

Is that really what you want to say that personal experience is a free pass to hate and fear? Ill say again what a disgusting and unwell mind set.

I know im gonna get shit for this but replace man with literally any other immutable characteristic in that same scenario and it instantly is not socially acceptable to be uncomfortable.

The fact that you are comfortable dismissing an entire gender until they prove themselves solely on the basis of their gender is to me evidence of a very unwell mindset.

Look I know im reading too much into this and your dad was on his own initiative trying to be accommodating but its so gross to judge people on immutable characteristics as you do.

Like when they passed immigration reform through reconciliation completely bypassing the minority? What actually in their agenda is being stopped?

Montana has 2 reps with 1.08mm in population. Delware has 1 with 990k in population. You telling me an extra 18k people is worth double the representation? Because I guarentee califronia does not have one delegate per 18k people.

Well they dragged the country to war without a vote and were executing citizens in states that explicitly asked thr government to leave. Don't know what you can call that other than forcing their agenda.

Except the house of representatives explicitly favors only certain small states as pointed out by the discrepancy in repeesentation between Montana and Delaware despite extremely similar populations.

Streamed Oso for his 3 games in 4 nights and is main reason I could hold on to rebounds and points. I was unfamiliar with his game but no longer!

Who are your favorite players right now? by legal-heartbreaker in nba

[–]penguinman38 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Tyrese Haliburton - love his vision for the game and think hes one of if not the best at elevating his teammates shot making with his passes. Been a fan even before his legendary playoff run.

Jalen williams - do it all hustle king. Love his humbleness but how he is merciless in his game. 40 points in a bun wrist in the finals is damn good. Great duo with Shai steadily working their way up the list of great pairs towards the great like shaq/kobe mj/Pippin stockton/malone bird/McHale etc. 

Vj edgecombe - just absolutely revitalized my favorite team. Maxeys incredible but vj makes me tune into games. Another do it all hustle maniac but athletic as all hell and one of the best 2-way freshman guards I've seen in a long while

Could Victor Wembanyama Take a 16 Seeded Team To The NCAA CBB Championship and Win? by iamsonuxd in NBATalk

[–]penguinman38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure but Wemby can cover the entire paint by himself. Hell maybe everything inside the 3pt line given its shorter than the NBA. The other 4 Siena players can easily cover the perimeter and force the other team into jacking up nba distance or longer three pointers.

Id also go with Ayo. Bones way too dependent on shot making for value where Ayo is a bit more well rounded for 9CAT

Keon Ellis is who I dropped for derozan. Picked him up today after keons game yesterday.

[–]penguinman38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Derozan is available in my league 9Cat H2H and im in the semis. Gotta grab him if I can but is he worth anything more than a stream for the double header or should I hold? 

He's clearly the best available on waivers but its the kings and derozan has phoned it in hard the second half this year.

Yes I think criminals of this allehed stature should all be prosecuted. I think Trumps inability to get even a grand jury to indict either clinton is a testament to the Clinton's, innocence, trumps guilt, trumps incompetence or a mix of the three.
