I would just tell her that you should really not ever “create an account for your newborn child” who may not want their whole childhood documented on the internet forever later on in their life.

For all you know they may not turn out to keep being your daughter forever. It’s kind of a gross overstepping of parental boundaries and something that should be left for them to decide.

This doesn’t mean you can’t keep records in case they want them in the future but as someone that grew up well before all this social media stuff it sort of terrifies me regarding the privacy and agency of younger generations.

Makes me glad I have always been extremely averse to having any sort of photos of me or any of my personal information anywhere online that I did not post till well into my 30s.

Do with this information what you will but I had that boundary crossed just with photos and such shared around way before I had any way to consent to it and some aspects still make me feel violated to this day and there is nothing I can do about it.

Ukraine’s lack of experience with such advanced tanks

Love how they do a little victim blaming too

Least safe places on the planet: Palestine and American schools.

U.S. Navy amphibious assault ship USS Wasp, which was sent to protect Israel.

holy shit this is way too on the nose lmao

In that case I appreciate what you are going for, and a nice complimentary community can be found over at hexbear.net/c/bloomer though you might occasionally find posts celebrating for example a billionaire getting imploded in their vanity submarine.

I would definitely suggest crossposting stuff there because we could all use a bit more good news in our feed and it isn’t the most active comm to be sure.

While that is very cool and I totally love the idea, it is important not to overdose on hopium and I hope it doesn’t become like similar reddit communities that tend to devolve into perseverence porn or the depressing trend of people thinking we can just invent our way out of this self made apocalypse and the intrinsically relevant reverence for some tech billionaires or entrepreneurial solutions to problems inherent to capitalism. We absolutely do need to acknowledge how fucked everything is and let that motivate us to also try to improve things.

In short I hope that this space is going to be welcoming to people finding creative ways to smash the beast within whose belly we are trapped in.

I hope they get their shit kicked in.

This is fucking stupid on so many levels lmao

You forgot the operative word “unearned”.

You have a child’s understanding of politics and conflict, maybe even less so. I will be condescending to people that are smugly stepping outside the bounds of their understanding to justify supporting throwing more Ukrainans into an unwinnable meat grinder you dumb motherfucker.

This is why people hate liberals. Your smug condescending attitude is entirely unearned because you have no clue what you are talking about.

Liberals are going to get us all fucking killed

If racism or sexism is normal or accepted where you are, we are truly in different worlds.

Tell me you’re a cis white man without telling me.

No but it should be treated as seriously as it is. Mask mandates, enforced distancing, not forcing people that could easily work from home to come be under the watchful eye of some middle management sicko, etc.

Your arguments sound like bad faith and therefore I still stand by calling you a troll.

I don’t have the time or patience to deal with someone that deliberately is this ignorant/making up a strawman to satisfy your smug sense of liberal superiority.

Because the churn of propaganda convincing people to go to work and risk their health for the profits of capitalists. Jfc children can understand this. You’re just trolling.

You’re just being an annoying pedant and rules fetishist. We are saying that it is ridiculous to treat it as a common cold go fuck off back to reddit you civility obsessed debate pervert.

I ain’t reading all that go back to reddit dweeb.

I smell a sequel to Cocaine Bear in the works.

Why is criminals in scare quotes? By it’s very definition burning a party HQ is a criminal act. This is not a moral judgement one way or another.

Might be because they are on mastadon
