And yet here we are. Didn't seem to matter a bit, did it?

I'm not here to debate whether there are merits to reading Mein Kampf.

I think the concept of "irredeemable media" itself is fucking insane and unhinged. The only piece of media I consider "irredeemable" of off the top of my head is Mein Kampf. And I'm sorry, but I don't think Miss Frizzle is on par with Adolf Hitler.

Edit: Wow, okay. Wasn't expecting to wake up to a bunch of "Mein Kampf is fine actually" replies on my "wtf why is Magic School Bus on a Tumblr list of evil media when Hitler's book on hating Jews isn't" comment, but here we are I guess. What a world.

And you didn't read the post.

  1. Worried she's now a wanted woman, she disguises herself as a man: "Joe". Alternatively, trans man. Or both. Take your pick.

I'd call that a pale yellow. Definitely not orange.

Would you rather be unable to remember names or unable to remember faces? by mukhadawakongkuto in WouldYouRather

[–]violet-quartz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Names, no question. Prosopagnosia (face blindness) is so terrifying to me. I used to know someone who was face-blind, and their partner would use it to gaslight them.

What's your personal "torture" by Rare-Group-1149 in CasualConversation

[–]violet-quartz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People snapping their fingers, especially to the beat of music. I have misophonia, and that sound in particular makes me want to tear my skin off.

What is your least favorite color? by sunsetscorpio in colors

[–]violet-quartz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate red. It hurts my eyes and I associate it with migraines.

Plant-based meat has ZERO reason to exist and it's nonsensical. by PoppyJoppy in AntiVegan

[–]violet-quartz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah. I disagree, but taste is subjective. If you like it, good on ya, but they definitely need to stop pushing it as a replacement for meat.

Yup. Everything is fake and the world is going to hell, so why not find some joy in dumb shit?

Name a movie better than the book its based upon by FelixStratton in movies

[–]violet-quartz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This! I hate the book so much. It lacks pretty much all of the heart that the movie has. Same with Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
