eltimablo, to asklemmy in Ladies if all the men of the world disappeared for 24 hours, they are fine they will come back, BUT during those 24 hours what are YOU doing?

That's on you, pal. I don't feel entitled to anything but the same basic respect I give anyone, man, woman, or otherwise. All I want is not to be looked at as an existential threat just for existing and I really don't think that's unreasonable.

Feel better?

A bear isn't trying to find a dating partner in a human woman...

You're sick in the head if you think being depressed over being labelled an existential threat makes me dangerous.

The issue isn’t with you, it’s with common experiences women have had with men.

And that's exactly the problem. I'm not those men. I have no intention of acting like those men. Yet I'm still scared that I'm going to get pepper sprayed anyway just for asking a woman for directions.

I am listening, and what I'm hearing is that I, as an innocent person, am a source of terror for someone I've never met because of a fact of my biology that I have no control over. I have no ability to change the feelings of someone else, because no matter what, those feelings are only able to be changed by the person feeling them. I can say I'm innocent and not a threat until I'm blue in the face, I can act as non-threatening as I possibly can, I can leave women alone in public. None of that matters because I'm not the one with the power over those feelings.

It's toxic to not want to be treated like a monster for something I didn't do?

eltimablo, (edited ) to asklemmy in What linguistic constructions do you hate that no one else seems to mind?

There are a lot of phrases from reddit that annoy me due to overuse. "Play stupid games, win stupid prizes" and "fuck around and find out" both annoy the absolute piss right out of me now.

eltimablo, to technology in Is this really the final laptop you will need this guy is claiming? it is completely customizable.

Just curious. Proton takes all of that effort out of the equation, plus I'm willing to bet there aren't as many driver problems, if there are any at all.

eltimablo, to vent in The bear vs man trend is digging up some tiresome and stressful thoughts

Your "observable reality" is based on heavily skewed statistics and anecdotes.

There was no chance of a productive discussion with you because you're fully convinced that your mindset is the only valid one. Why else would you so completely dismiss the views of the people that are being actively harmed by this shit? You didn't want a discussion, you just wanted me to stop causing you cognitive dissonance so you can keep telling yourself you're right.

You're a bigot in an academic's clothes. This whole conversation, your slavish devotion to "the statistics" have made you sound like far-right-wingers do when they talk about Black people. "10% of the population but they commit 35% of the crime so I'm right to be afraid of them."

The world is better with you in it.

That's not the sentiment you've been conveying by lumping me and billions of other innocent men in with the small percentage of us that are subhuman filth.

If I were to say "I'd rather face down a bear than be near a black person," you'd rightfully call me a racist.

Because I really doubt coming to this thread upset and angry did anything productive for ya.

Nope, all it did was put me in contact with someone who wants to justify their own closed-minded bigotry by dismissing other people's lived experiences and further convince me that the world would be better off if I killed myself.

But fuck male fee fees, they're a myth anyway, right? There's no man that's safe to be around and society changes too slowly, so it's best for everyone that they should be quarantined or exterminated.

eltimablo, to lemmyshitpost in Found this great deal on a new chair for my living room. Almost 50% off!

My first thought is that this is meant for custom upholstery. If you're spending $1800 on a single chair, you're probably willing to shell out another grand or whatever to cover it in fabric that you like.

Nah, that's working as intended according to the "bear>man" crowd.

eltimablo, to games in UK Government Response to the Stop Killing Games Petition

Because cars are a useful tool made up of physical parts that can wear out, while games are an entertainment product made of ever-changing software. You need a car. You don't need video games.

eltimablo, to technology in Tesla is already pulling back Supercharger plans after firing team

Not to mention, it's a standard now, and the old Supercharger protocol is being phased out in favor of another standardized one (I forget which). Further development done on their chargers from here on out is going to be done by a consortium of companies rather than in-house anyway.
