This right here is the reason I still bother to engage people on this topic. The women who honestly believe a bear is less threatening than a random man are a lost cause imo, so my goal is to help men find supportive people and spaces that aren’t dangerous idiots like Tate.
You can be a man without being forced to exist in the manufactured redpill/male feminist dichotomy.
hell of a thing to say about yourself lol
In countries like India and China where women are less free to choose quality of life and human connections over money, a lot more of them go into IT.
I got asked by a team of first timers who have never done any professional coding or design if I wanted to chip in on a competitive MMOFPS they want to make.
That’s not going to happen. Between the rise of cheating, the insane hardware and optimization requirements of an MMOFPS, the general lack of interest in the genre (most have died due to low player counts), and the sheer amount of time and effort involved in designing and balancing the game even after it’s largely feature complete? Forget it, I’m better off buying lottery tickets than hoping for anything to come of that.
In an ideal world we’d all be encouraged to take on creative pursuits and have the ability to do so, rather than feel guilty for them. Maybe someday, right?
Stopped myself before I got in as far as you but realized my roadblock is art. I can’t solve this one: I lack the creativity and patience to do the art, and naturally nobody will ever work for free, nor should they.
I wasn’t really sure how to proceed so I started studying for various tech and cloud certs instead. Might as well put my skills to use somewhere.
Make sure to add mandatory EGS accounts later.
Those are the crime statistics. I wasn’t going to break out all the reasons why the stats are the way they are, I’m just using the same metrics you folks are using when you say men are more dangerous than bears. I’m using your logic applied to your data, but for a different demographic.
Interesting that it’s suddenly bigotry, no? It’s almost like you’re a bigot.
If you’re a man who thinks all men are dangerous predators, I have a message for you: this says more about you than it does about me.
You didn’t prove anything, you typed a bunch of antisemitic bullshit
No you typed out a whole bunch of bullshit, all I did was change the word “men” out for “Jew”. Suddenly what you said was so hateful it got deleted for being against the rules. You honestly don’t see how what you said is against the rules if you say it about any other demographic?
I’ll go right on ahead harming nobody with my cautious approach to interacting with men
In America, black people are much more likely to commit violent crime. Using your logic, does that mean I would be justified in taking a “cautious approach” when being around black people?
If polls indicated that the Afghan people preferred it that way, would it have been worth the deaths of so many to try to change it?
This is like those really embarrassing 2000’s era gotchas where someone would say some cringe shit like “you spelled X wrong and therefore I win this argument”. You said the following:
I already made it. The Nazi Gun Control argument. Afghanistan is back to how it was before the U.S. invaded, thousands of deaths later, so if that’s an example of how the Nazi Gun Control argument is false, it’s a poor one.
How exactly am I to interpret this if not you saying that Afghan culture has a problem, or that you are comparing them to Nazis? Do you believe that the culture the Americans brought with them was better? If so, can you share a few ways American culture is better than Afghan culture?
No, that is what you’re saying. You started with choosing the bear because you said men are dangerous, then when it was shown how hateful what you said is, you refused to acknowledge it and attempted to paint me as an anti-semite despite the fact that all I did was use your words. Now you’re saying you didn’t actually mean all men, you just meant rapists, as if using “men” interchangeably with “rapist” isn’t the core of the whole damn problem in the first place.
This is a Motte-and-Bailey argument and it’s bullshit. You are a hateful bigot. Admit it.
I take it you don’t want to engage the question because you realize the trap you’re in? That’s fine. Perhaps refrain from comparing people to Nazis in the future?
Are you saying that there is a problem with Afghani culture, and that American culture is better or more valuable?
Now you’re saying all men are rapists? Interesting.
What argument are you making here?
To show you how hateful your shit is. You are a bigot. Accept it.
