  • Although I haven’t read Lolita myself I recently came across a video explaining how many people misunderstand the book as being some sort of tragic romance. LOLITA: The Worst Masterpiece

    It’s ironic that one of the most famous and successful writers in the world made this same mistake of trusting and sympathizing with the pedophilic murderer while claiming that she wants to protect women and children from the trans.


  • I didn’t hear about the vandalizing of private jets until people were complaining about stone henge.

    It’d be a bit odd if you had heard about the jets before the Stonehenge stunt since they vandalized the jets one day after Stonehenge. I heard about each of them on the day they happened as I was listening to the news.

    this does seem like a much more effective way of bringing attention to the issue.

    Even most leftists didn’t support the Stonehenge stunt while the majority of comments and posts I’ve seen on the vandalism of the jets was positive. The majority of the public has grievances towards private jets, their pollution and who’s using them, and how they should be taxed. You’ll be hard-pressed to find anyone who thinks Stonehenge is bad or that vandalizing it is good.

    This only serves to make them and other climate activists look like petty fools, besides creating infighting on the left. Nearly everyone already knows about climate change and has an opinion on it, and the Stonehenge stunt does nothing to move the public to our side.


  • The Stonehenge stunt was an ineffective attention grab. Vandalizing the private jets was an effective attention grab.

    Like if some Just Stop Oil activist took a shit in the middle of a busy NY street that would get them a lot of attention, but it wouldn’t be even remotely positive or effective in any way.

    They should stick to vandalizing the property of the biggest culprits of climate change. I and most other leftists can get behind that, and it actually puts a spotlight on the people causing the problem. The Stonehenge stunt just comes off as a petty attack on the public who has little to no say on climate issues.


  • made climate activists look stupid for centuries to come over some nonsensical and ineffective attention grab

    didn’t stop climate change

    Yeah, seems about right.

    They had the right idea when they spray painted those private jets. IDK what they were thinking with this.




  • Most of the time my inner voice is my own voice, but sometimes when I’ve been watching a lot of videos from the same creator I’ll start thinking with their voice and speech patterns. This was moderately annoying when I started hearing my thoughts be narrated by Jacksepticeye.

    A while back on R*ddit I had this discussion with a “libertarian” where they defended the idea that a local government should be able to dictate people’s clothes. For leftists “freedom” means expanding and protecting the rights of the people, while for them ot literally just means “freedom to oppress others”.



  • You can and should read the full report here. Several experts and researchers who work in a variety of fields relevant to gender and youth healthcare reviewed hundreds of studies, commissioned several literature reviews, and conducted thousands of interviews with gender diverse children, their families and healthcare providers to reach their conclusions.

    To dismiss them as “conservatives who just hate other humans” and handwave away a 388-page report that took more than 3 years to complete by vaguely gesturing at some nondescript “statistics” would be extremely shortsighted.
