Tell me you don’t understand language and simultaneously logic without telling me

For all your whining about nuance, you sure love to take the most reductionist (straw-manned) interpretation of things and come out of the gate swinging with insults. Excuse me while I use this to justify dismissing your pedantry.

Mmm, beg to differ. Your whole position is tedious and pedantic.

It’s all anecdotal, folks.

I won’t vote for Trump, I just don’t like having to eat a shit pie and being told it’s french silk caramel, and if I say otherwise I’m Republican, Uneducated, or something else equally insulting.

I’m not saying “they changed the definition”. I’m saying “too many things about the way this term is gatekept from general use are flawed, and done for political gain sometimes, the average discussion of what is happening right now being one of them”. It depends on the context whether a more academic definition standard should be expected, and even then it’s not as straightforward as whoever is trying to shut down its use likes to pretend, and so perhaps a less-important hill to die on than whatever discussion is happening at that point in time."

yeah, hiring her as his assistant isn’t ideal as the risk to the company, but in terms of nepotism, it doesn’t sound as bad to me as the CEOs that will make someone a director over an entire department just because they’re banging (have seen this irl)

I seriously doubt the majority of comments come from men. That it’s what they fixate on, is a different matter.

Maybe you never matured. Maybe you’re regressing. Who knows.

It’s high-school level dynamics, regardless

Eeexcept it’s really not like that. Next rebuttal.

oh noes! men!!

Bad-faith exaggerations, lazy scapegoating, and unwillingness to accept responsibility will overshadow the truths in your positions.

That’s exactly why there’s entire store shelves dedicated to selling magazines preying on insecurities about how men look, shows like househusbands of Atlanta, the Kardashian brothers, and why women men are known for talking trash about each other’s appearance in the workplace

Press x to doubt

That’s what our impulses tell us to do, but you’re not obligated to listen to every impulse. The complexity of life as we experience it affords us the luxury of choice.

It’s not nonsensical, you’re nonsensical. I’m just joining in and trying to be thorough about the hypotheticals we’re listing, here. 😬

gracias

what is it then
