Oh I was just kidding because of how similar Nick is to Nicole, and evidently I don’t have to tell you about her haha

Hmmm…Nick…🤨

FUCK

Honestly I’m not the best resource for this information as somebody else set up my account, but I think there’s a usenet community on Lemmy!

Usenet isn’t as easy to get caught using as torrents just because of how it works. I don’t know enough to explain why, I just know this haha.

Highly recommend replacing those with a Usenet subscription!

Omg pink is such a pretty colour I’d lovvvvvve that

If there’s one thing the French are good at, it’s resistance

I agree with most of your points here and had to give you an upvote for this one.

The last bit about how some things are “good in theory/not in practice” is a phrase I’ve heard a lot, but it often ignores the systematic structures in play to actively prevent those things from working in practice.

Take communism for example. Cuba was very near being functional and working in practice, if it weren’t for the west actively interfering in it to ensure it didn’t work and that this [anti-communist] rhetoric would be viable. Good in theory/not in practice just lacks nuance imo, but i understand what you’re getting at and we don’t need to get into it as you’ve gone into plenty of depth already and I don’t feel like discussing it further.

Thanks for getting back on track, I feel like people (including myself!) were misunderstanding your initial point but I feel like this comment represents it better.

I just feel like your anger is directed in the wrong place here. DEI related initiatives aren’t the cause for men being left behind.

Often men are left behind because capitalists find them easier to exploit. The rhetoric that it’s because women are being favoured is false, and i can think of plenty of examples, medically and otherwise, but pushing that rhetoric onto young men to sow resentment towards women and therefore division within the working class is very intentional on the ruling class’s part.

If we can get this back on the rails for a moment:

Was your initial point that Angus bringing up DEI related initiatives in relation to Canada won’t help get the attention of young men?

If so, I don’t disagree, because as I mentioned before, using that rhetoric is a pointed distraction from the class divide, and there was a reason the right was able to seduce young men.

I’m not great at articulating myself, but I have found a video that possibly better explains the reason why

Ignore the clickbaitey title, it’s actually quite a good video

Who knows if he’s actually quitting for good considering the attention he’s getting right now. He’s almost more vocal now even

Ya ya ya I get that. I already deleted my comment before you responded, guess this app lags.

My issue with this is that, with all the ways the medical community has failed women over the centuries, and still does, I just don’t understand why you’re focusing so heavily on the one time recently that boys were left behind.

Do you advocate for equitable medical studies and treatment when girls are left behind, too, or is it just to prove a point?

Hes totally got Jack Layton vibes, but more working class, like your neighbourhood peewee hockey coach that isn’t a dick

Unlike one of the main assumptions capitalism is built on – that people always act in their own best interest – people are extremely easy to manipulate. Basically, capitalism is broken (does not actually work on the assumptions it is said to be built on) and there is financial incentive to keep it that way and exploit it. This is what happens when profit is king.

In short: late stage capitalism is what’s happening.

It means I don’t touch grass nearly as often as I pretend to

The fact that I already knew the answer to this embarrasses me
