"I can't believe I have to say this, but arresting civilians for collecting paint chips and not arresting the people in power for raping children is fucking evil."

I find that really easy to believe actually. The level of vitriol makes a lot of sense in places where women have some power. Why bother where they are powerless?

I don't know about that. My time in customer service has taught me that it's actually pretty hard to win customers over.

It's really hard for me to wrap my head around why it's so easy for certain extremely online guys to hate women so much and so easily.
I encounter a little bit less of it on the fediverse but it's not immune either. Yesterday on lemmy someone posted something making fun of women who get plastic surgery, and pointing out that they were being kinda misogynist* got a lot of replies about how men are the real oppressed class and you can never make jokes about women and other incel bullshit. No where is immune.

I wonder if part of the issue is that we raise kids with a lot of platitudes like "don't rush it, you'll find someone" when the truth is not everyone does find someone and you're not promised a life partner

U.S. tech megacaps slide as SpaceX extends slump, AI expense concerns grow
Isn't this exactly what was expected? I think I am in kind of a bubble because it makes no sense to me that anyone would buy into SpaceX.

Yeah, that's a thing I still struggle with! Understanding how not being able to date turns them into misogynists. I guess it's entitlement, but I can't really relate to that in this case, so it's hard to understand.

You are honestly helping the US by doing this. People down here aren't going to learn from this until there's more pain and layoffs, and we really need to learn
