I’m sorry Europeans but America is the culmination of the European project of colonization, enslavement and capitalism. This is your child not claiming them doesn’t make them not yours. America is merely an extension and a continuation of Europe on other shores, as is Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

You’ve been more than happy to align yourself with America for these very reasons. It’s profitable, your own colonial ventures may even get backed up militarily by America and you can still seem progressive in comparison while being an accomplice.

funny seeing the google ai go on full defense for white people over the word honky while the wiki article it's sourcing is just like "yeah its some insult". they're injecting their own #alllivesmatter weights into the bot

[natto-slime]

seeing any variation of "maybe this is too woke" is another instant block for me. idk how valid the actual point is. it's usually followed by the most basic lukewarm social justice/equity take anyway.

literally just "maybe this is too woke but I think ppl shouldn't be bigots" 🧍

[natto-slime]

maybe my nostalgia organ is burnt out, maybe i just was never really a huge fan to begin with, but i feel absolutely nothing about any of the new a/t/l/a media coming out

i did legit enjoy it when i was a kid/teen, but i kinda just don't care about it now

That strange feeling when everyone around you likes a thing that you don’t like. You even gave it an honest try, and did your best to understand why it’s liked, but it’s just so… mid (at best) to you.

And now you’re left wondering why you’re not seeing what they’re seeing. Why your friends and people whose opinion you trust, liked it and you don’t.

I do not agree with veganism as a moral standard. If it is your personal moral stance, that is fine. If you think humans eating meat is inherently immoral, I don’t want to deal with you, you’re hopeless. Vegan ideology behaves more like a sect of evangelical Christianity than a dietary choice.

[literallycrashingoutrn]

Veganism is better for the environment, but claiming that it's a morally superior choice ignores cultural and economic factors that make people eat animal products.

[byjove]

It is not inherently better for the environment. That is the thing. When you begin trying to explain that local, sustainably sourced animal protein is better for the environment than imported plant proteins that are farmed 3,500 miles away using slave labor, they start tuning you out. Down is better for the environment than polyester stuffing, leather is better for the environment than pleather. We should work on making animal agricultural practices more sustainable instead of trying to shame everyone into eating plant products that are also farmed unethically and unsustainably.

[moniquill]

We really need to decouple the idea of 'eating meat and using animal products' (traditional, sustainable, environmentally sound) from 'factory farming' (CAFOs, corn/soy animal diets, ubiquitous antibiotic overload, etc) which DOES need to be dismantled.

Also everyone start demanding more feral hog and whittailed deer meat now.

“supporting neil gaiman isn’t as bad as supporting jk rowling because he isn’t using his money to hurt trans people and he doesn’t seem bigoted!” is a real take i’ve seen and i am going to blow a gasket. “he doesn’t seem bigoted” He raped and trafficked women. Paying for his works and engaging in fandom for them is giving him money and good publicity that he uses to curry good favor with the masses and silence his victims in ongoing legal battles. You are enabling a rapist and abuser.

Important question

[natto-slime]

[creatingblackcharacters]

For context, i know nothing about Pirates of the Caribbean besides the theme song but i looked it up the other day and apparently Jack Sparrow is white??? I’ve seen him a few times and im pretty sure he has locs so I thought he was Black- but also the actor who plays him is white. I’m just so confused 😭

[creatingblackcharacters]

I... Guess? Johnny Depp does not look like this in real life, no.

[greatrunner]

Even without knowing anything about POTC, I feel like just looking at Jack Sparrow tells you the man is canonically white with (occasional fake n bake) sunburn and ratty hair. Like, c'mon now.
