casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

I don’t support Nick Fanta or any other political streaming mouthpieces, but just as you said this sounds like a plausible explanation and if true then we’d all be better off acknowledging the truth rather than running with sensationalist lies.

That is to say, the people that downvoted your comment are children who can’t employ critical thinking to see the uncertainty here-- or perhaps they know something we don’t.

Regardless, fuck this Nazi streamer in particular, and all like him. But goddamn people make sure you have your facts straight otherwise you make your opponents look more credible than yourself you tools. Seriously, you make everyone who supports your view look like idiots by being blatantly obvious idiots.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

I am admonishing you for not acknowledging uncertainty that contributes to the credibility of your argument. It doesn’t matter who your opponent is-- if you use a false argument against them, you tarnish the credibility of your side.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

was it just the porn, or was there anything that would indicate he was watching it? Because yeah it sounds very much like he might have been hacked based on the description of it only occuring on the one platform-- if it didn’t go through OBS, then it obviously was not him forgetting to turn off his stream…

but yeah, again, the dude has always sounded like a twat regardless

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Do people consider shuttles and buses the same thing? Because this sounds like a shuttle, which as far as I’m aware is completely different from a bus. I take a shuttle to the airport, which requires a reservation and ~$50 whereas I take a bus to get around town and it’s typically free.

Essentially it sounds like they are trying to dip into the shuttle market, not the inner-city bus market. Though maybe both?

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

… the reading comprehension level of the average Lemmy user scares me

I literally said that I take the bus. And the shuttle.

Best part is they don’t realize they’ll save nothing on taxes when the orange devalues the USD even further.

Also, has anyone investigated whether Trump or any of his shell companies bought US bonds during his presidency?

If it wasn’t obvious that the Debian box is a parody, here’s what the Japanese Chinese text along the top reads on each box:

Please read the instructions carefully and use it under the guidance of a physician. It is strictly prohibited to be used in food and feed processing.

Please read the installation instructions carefully and use it under the guidance of the administrator. It is strictly prohibited to use for server installation.

so yes, the title is correct-- this is not a coincidence, the Debian box was made explicitly for this joke

edit: thanks for the correction folks, honestly thought it looked more like Japanese than Chinese at first glance and I am obviously not an expert in either. Appreciate the call-out, very deserved.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Yeah that one’s on me. I did Google lens it, but I realized I had no hope of knowing what glyphs those were, I just assumed Japanese cause idk. But good call.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Yeah I got it completely wrong.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

This is behavioral therapy, which you could say is a responsive mode of “parenting” that is highly effective.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

I only ever call myself things like cisgender for the sake of argument, as it is the identity I was born into and lived with for many years before realizing I was agender.

I personally consider cisgender and cishet to be slurs solely because I’ve so largely seen it used in a derogatory context, the same way “white male” is used by certain bad actors to signal outrage

In all reality gender, sexual preference, race, ethnicity are all our of place in most civil discussion-- the majority of the time it is brought up is in discussion of identity politics. And if what we want as a society is equality, then identity should take a back seat to humanism.

Unfortunately, as I’m sure my comment score will no doubt soon reflect, a lot of people take issue with this notion of equality and, as I’m sure replies to my comments may end up reflecting, are ready to disagree and offer their own definitions of equality. It is therefore the duty of the reader to decide what equality means to them, unfortunately.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

How about a community that includes everyone?

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Everyone is normal. There is no different, only human. Do you disagree?

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Gay until proven otherwise

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Y’all wanna do a poll for context? Hope that’s allowed, since pretty sure updoots means nothing on Lemmy. Apologies if not, anyway here I go:

Is trans a slur? Updoot the corresponding comment to cast your vote, or downdoot to be a troll I guess idk

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Yes

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

No

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Maybe?

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Because I think people’s disagreement makes my point more effectively than my words ever could.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

And trans is also a descriptive term, right?

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

You illustrated the point better than I had the energy to do-- I simply don’t care enough to be that eloquent because the majority of what I get is nonsense in return. So instead of wasting my time, I chose to take the lazy route and encourage people to come to a consensus on this one key point so that the point you made would become irrefutable.

Neither trans nor cis are slurs by default, but anything can be a slur if used in a derogatory manner-- I think some comedian had a bit about this, but I can’t recall who and I’m sure even if I did there’s a good chance someone would give me a nasty label for saying such comedian made a good point…

But the same people that say trans can be a slur, cannot deny in good faith that cis cannot be a slur. They are both simple classifiers with no basis on prejudice. But some people will still argue they are slurs simply because they are used prominently in derogatory contexts.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Correct-- humanism is equality. But some people don’t want humanism, for whatever fucking reason.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Cis and trans are both the same type of descriptor. If trans can be used as a slur, so can cis.

Not saying either are slurs by default. But they most certainly can be turned into ones.
