Asking for trouble


Thank you for sharing
Fantastic writing. Thanks!


I have an idea…



But the lesson is “it’s not cool to call your friends fat” and “you can call out your friends if they’re being mean” or even “avoid people who make you feel bad”. You clearly got the wrong message here.
There are shitty people and we have to deal with that, but that doesn’t make these people any less shitty. We know how social consequences work, and you think you know as well, but why you gotta constantly take the shitty people’s side here? Unless… Hmmm… 🤔


Trans people are errant society members who need to be kept in check by completely bigoted assholes?


Friends calling each other names is not the same
Oh no, not this again… There’s enough food for everyone and we throw most of it away. Farming can be improved, and we also need to change our diets and how we distribute food. Water is equally abundant, but we can’t have huge cities in the desert. That sort of stuff.
Calling people existing a problem is itself problematic. It’s a step on the way to socially pressure or outright forbid people from having children, which makes existing power dynamics super creepy. Like, you think the rich and powerful will ever be denied this right? It’s always some nebulous other or people generally who should stop existing or having babies. Dystopian rhetoric if you ask me. The road to eugenics, fascism, genocide is paved with green liberals concerned about overpopulation.


Here’s an example: “Israel has a right to defend itself”


How fucking smart do you think 5 year olds are?


Hissssss 🐍
Don’t preorder, what the hell are you people thinking?!


Nah, the point is that technical limitations are no substitute for actual in-person supervision. I don’t have a lock on the sweets cabinet but that doesn’t mean my kids can eat unlimited sweets.


Agree and using the same approach. Only limitation is purchases, they can’t spend money.
It never stops with parental control. Corps will use it for their own CYA policy as well, specifically age restricting everything


To be fair, it is full of racist and fascist stuff. You can report them but Valve doesn’t do anything.


Exactly. Companies are typically working on multiple conflicting scenarios because you don’t know which it’s going to be
