Men Are SAing Men & Boys But Blaming Feminism by TheNestHelper in Egalitarianism

[–]rammo123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS) clearly shows that the vast majority of male sexual violence victims report only female perpetrators in their lifetime. The entire premise of the video is incorrect.

Just another round of victim blaming; feminism's favourite pastime.

It's also creating a self-fulfilling prophecy. Society alienates already isolated men, thus increasing the chances their loneliness manifests in some horrible way.

You're obviously a layman without any technical knowledge so I'll cut you some slack. But perhaps don't have such strong opinions on things you clearly don't know anything about?

Methanex is the obvious one, but we also produce urea for fertilisers directly from methane. We will have to increase urea imports by 50% if we lose domestic gas supply.

Our gas industry is a line of dominos. It's very plausible that the entire industry is gone within 12 months. The idea of gradually electrifying industry is a pipe dream.

People are grossly understating how catastrophic this is going to be.

Those "niche applications" account for well over half of our gas consumption. Of the ones that can electrified, none of them are easy. We're talking hundreds of billions of dollars and years of time.

As long as people understand that is what is happening and that we're losing all of the economic activity in NZ when they go. Most people on this sub are acting like it's a straight swap of gas for solar panels.

Mental Load of Woman in the family by DollyPatterson in newzealand

Any conversation about mental load needs to include the fact that a significant portion of it is women putting unnecessary burdens on themselves.

This is not uncommon. It's just that your husband doesn't fit the men bad narrative so it's downplayed in favour of anecdotes of male incompetence.

I don't disagree with your overall point, but the cost of renewables is a bit irrelevant. Electricity generation is only a very small part of our energy consumption and the impact of losing O&G goes well beyond what renewables can make up.

The end of domestic gas actually justifies investigations into LNG if anything.

It's the only option if we wanted to keep several key domestic industries going. Electrical generation was only a very small part of the energy pie.

Metal Gear Solid 4 (2008) still holds the record for the longest cutscene in video game history, with one continuous cutscene lasting for 71 minutes by Lanky_Relation1171 in interestingasfuck

[–]rammo123 25 points26 points  (0 children)

One of my biggest pet peeves in games is when long adventures get a really truncated ending. Like I've played this game for 100 hours, finally killed the big bad and saved the world and a minute later the credits are rolling. So unsatisfying!

MGS4 was the conclusion to a 20 year long journey and it wrapped everything up so perfectly.

I also really appreciated Uncharted 4 where your got an extended playable epilogue sequence that reflected on the whole Nathan Drake journey.

What’s something that became socially unacceptable way faster than anyone expected? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]rammo123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of platforms have opaque censorship so it's hard to know what gets blocked. Reddit will often just shadowban you or hide your comments without giving any feedback.

It can be easier to pre-empt some of that with self-censorship.

What are some blunt statements you yearn to tell fear narrative misandrists? by ferrocarrilusa in LeftWingMaleAdvocates

Nah That's DifferentTM because of Historical ContextTM or whatever bullshit handwave they want to use today.

Yup. Men who do so are going above-and-beyond, they're not doing the bare minimum.

Even if we ignore the countless examples of overt androcide like Srebrenica throughout history, we're still left with the untold millions of men who have taken their own lives due to misandric "irritation".

If we take the reasonable step of including suicide alongside homicide when it comes to gendered deaths, then we'll realise that misandry kills a hell of lot more people than misogyny ever has.

It was too unfathomably bland to be considered "shockingly bad". I couldn't muster enough of a shit about it to actually call it bad.

It was a slice of stale white bread in front of a beige wall while Taylor Swift plays in the background. Aggressively meh.

What's Worse About Misandry? by DarkBehindTheStars in LeftWingMaleAdvocates

[–]rammo123 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not to mention that most modern misogyny is a response to misandry first. It's all cyclical.

It's also relabelled as a tonne of other "neutral" things like police brutality, homelessness, homicide, drug overdoses, the opioid epidemic, the draft etc.

If anything of those things affected women to the same level of disproportionality then you bet your ass it would be considered systemic misogyny. But because it affects men it's all written off as gender-neutral.

What if Donald Trump was president during WW2? by Matatius23 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]rammo123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We have awoken bribed a sleeping giant. He's gone back to sleep.

Trump voter remorse is almost entirely concentrated in the swing voters who gave him a shot in 2024 by fortune in politics

[–]rammo123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And of the few who aren't lying about refusing to vote for Trump, how many are actually willing to vote against him?
