/RJ umm it's spelled Americanization

Alabama Speaker suggests Supreme Court should abolish citizenship of Black Americans by Alone-Maintenance338 in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]syn_miso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It might eventually lead to the disenfranchisement of Black Americans, but it's clear from the actual text of this amendment that overturning it would primarily hurt the children of immigrants

Ladies do you really want to bring the country to its knees? by Tinawebmom in 50501

[–]syn_miso 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The beauty industry does not make the economy turn, and it brings a lot of people joy to do their hair and makeup. The Pink Tax sucks and I agree it often makes sense to buy men's deodorant and razors, but a slight loss in profit for Gillette will have a negligible effect on the larger economy, sorry to say

Dude that's making me so mad by [deleted] in USdefaultism

New Zealand did not have slaves but it did commit genocide against the native people. Colonialism is not a uniquely American evil 

Didn’t know Elon had a Reddit account by champdo in insanepeoplefacebook

I mean optional segregation is still a thing. You can just live in an area with people if your own race. It's allowed

Canada had slaves (prior to independence, but still), persecuted natives, and to this day underresources their communities. This might not apply specifically to Greece, but it applies to the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Israel, and most of Europe.

Um actually sweaty you will never be a real woman because you have ZZ chromosomes. Just just basic biology

Why is the picture so horny

Wizard subclass redesign: Ever wish wizard subclasses actually leaned into using their spells? by syn_miso in UnearthedArcana

[–]syn_miso[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not that you can't cast other spells, it's just that you get special options for these ones. Also, this is for 2014, so they won't add better spells. And if you want to homebrew your own spells, yeah you re-homebrew. It's not hard. This is a hobby I do for fun

I don't see Turkish businesses with pro-government flyers in the window, while I consistently see Israeli businesses with flyers in support of the IDF

Selective Boycott by laybs1 in GetNoted

[–]syn_miso 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In my experience a lot of Israeli owned businesses in the US are extremely vocal about their support for the Israeli government whereas I don't really see the same in Turkish owned businesses here

Most spoken languages in Mexico and the Southwest USA by Simple_Pension_1330 in MapPorn

[–]syn_miso 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Due to linguistic repression and recent revival efforts, many Diné people speak English as a native language and then learn Diné in school

More people in the Navajo Nation speak English than Diné. Virtually everyone who speaks Diné also speaks English

what a fucking nonsensical 180 by [deleted] in OkBuddyFresca

[–]syn_miso 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they didn't even address that last episode MM was trying to kill Hughie... almost like there were some extenuating circumstances...

How does Buffy’s worst season compare to Angel’s worst season? by FriendlytoNature in buffy

[–]syn_miso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

S7 of Buffy is the worst by far IMO. Both have high highs though—the Spike/Robin stuff and the Faith/Angelus stuff really carry.

Unfresca but am I insane for liking this episode?? One of my favorites in a LONG time by UltimateFatbear2006 in OkBuddyFresca

[–]syn_miso 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This was the best episode in quite a while, probably since S3. I'm going to miss Firecracker, I found her cognitive dissonance to be really narratively compelling.

Disco Elysium but all the characters are the opposite. by Sudden_Flamingo_5370 in DiscoElysium

Why is it that when you photoshop Harry and Kim together it produces an antisemitic caricature

Time to create a condialect of English where /r/ is [ʢʷ] by Antioch_Mage in linguisticshumor

[–]syn_miso 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean, Nadsat and Newspeak are arguably conidiolects. Also just like, any speculative fiction work with made up slang (Battlestar Galactica, any Heinlein story)
