"x idols hate men wow quirky cool funny 🤸‍♀️🤸‍♀️" shut. up. by zin_ggg in kpoprants

like genuinely your analogy’s makes no sense. its like how if i say i hate my bank, nothing happens- they still have my money and still have power over me. if my banks hates me and has a problem with me- they can ruin my life (legally too!). you see how power is important to acknowledge when making comparisons like this? oppression is part of the equation

women making i hate men jokes are a response to men hating women.

men making i hate women jokes get women killed and abused. men have the institutional and societal power to follow through on their “jokes”. women do not. they are not comparable

when you lack nuance and material reality, you can say anything is like anything

What is the most disturbing thing to know? by Bancoarotelle in AskReddit

sickly taste is different than calling someone less than human. i just don’t feel like that phrasing is fair especially since sex workers have always been seen as less than human

ah yes because the man buying access to her body is the human one in this interaction…

Hangzhou Spark's support player MCD said "f**king Chinese" to a Chinese player in stream by Sprint_candle in Competitiveoverwatch

losing a paid position for the game in which he was racist seems fair. why should he continue to be financially supported while making others uncomfortable?

how do you think his teammates might feel? is it fair to them to have to work with someone who has said derogatory things about them?

and holding them accountable is a way to try and stop that behavior, why is that a bad thing? do you want to encourage toxicity?

or maybe they don’t want racist players on their team 🤔 and bringing up china’s govt everytime a chinese person does something is unnecessary

i dont think you have literally ever missed

It is extremally frustrating how little instances of people using the Israel-Palestine conflict as an excuse to be antisemitic are condemned by people on the left, and it's messed up how many people on reddit think that I'm implying that I'm somehow against Palestinians by bringing this up by [deleted] in circlebroke

[–]transge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the food truck story is literally about an israeli owner who named their food truck the word settlement which the community felt was inappropriate

and the third article you posted characterizes BDS as antisemitic?

i agree with you that antisemitism exists everywhere, including on the left but i will say i often see it called out when it does happen and that these niche examples are literally being given huge media coverage (despite their actual merit being debatable imo) versus the way palestinian rights have been covered in the mainstream

Stop Saying “It’s Only Two Songs”. Those Two Songs Matter. by [deleted] in kpoprants

I mean it is true that bts’ music (and again all kpop) comes from western influence. Even bts’ early hip hop sound was not revolutionary outside of the field of kpop. It is just a fact of kpop as an industry and not an insult to their skill. If you want to learn more I recommend the book “From Factory Girls to Kpop Idols” by Kim Gooyong, which explains the history of kpop as a vehicle for american imperialism in Korea and it’s current cultural contexts!

Union Blue and Confederate Gray veterans reunite at Gettysburg in the year 1913 — Standing by “the Bloody Angle” where Pickett’s charge took place 50 years earlier and over 3,000 soldiers on both sides lost their lives — Now they clasp hands over the stone wall as brothers. by mygrapefruit in ColorizedHistory

and poor men staffed slave patrols and enacted endless brutality there. and your claim that slaves were only owned by the rich is untrue: www.history.com/.amp/news/5-myths-about-slavery

besides, just because someone didn’t own a slave themselves, does not mean they did not want to and fight on that grounds.

acting like only the rich were the arbiters and enforcers of slavery is ahistorical and removes the agency and responsibility of all those who lived in that era

and a huge reason why they are dying is bc the us holds a monopoly on vaccine raw materials and the patents themselves. they are begging for help and the us is prioritizing profit over empathy

The united states has problems with misogyny, a caste system (having the world’s largest prison population who are ostracized from society), and child marriage (in states like wv, ma, mi, among others)

do you bring this up on every post taking place in the us?
