As a white person, this is ridiculous. That word is not comparable to the N word. N word was said by oppressors to their slaves. Cracker was said by the slaves to their oppressors. The meaning is totally different. Any white person offended by cracker is a joke

I dont think that word or any other has to be equivalent to the N word, for it to receive punishment. Twitch seems to have an itchy trigger finger at times.

You're not actually saying anything. Yeah you can call it an 'emergency induction port' but everyone else calls it a straw so you're just making things more complicated for no reason.

No.

You're upset that a lot of people wont use the words you approve of. They already had words to describe male and female humans. But to avoid confusion with the words man and woman, they threw in qualifiers like biological, natural, and real. And now its sex-woman in this thread. Clearly that still pisses some people off, so were back to whatever youve decided is correct. Except not everyone wants to bend the knee. Threatening people does work sometimes, so go ahead and lean into that if you like.

All of these terms are made up.

We use what we use because this is a time of ambiguity and wariness, where we cant all agree on anything concrete and not using socially approved words can easily lead to being silenced.

The average parent can't be bothered to monitor what media their kid consumes, then wonders where they learn dirty talk, let alone be involved in their education. That said, a parent that is going to care enough to home school and actually teach their kid is probably more involved in their child's upbringing than average.

Really the biggest downside to home schooling is they tend to grow up to be socially maladjusted weirdos since school didn't beat out most of their individuality.

Those are good points and I suppose its true that homeschooling would not be effective or even practical for most families. I mean quite a few parents prefer traditional schooling because they want (need?) a babysitter. They want the teachers to parent for them, but the teacher will catch heat if the parent isnt happy about something.

She should not have access to you like that. Its basically letting her have the last word and letting her know she still has some power over you, no matter what you say.

Sorry about your experience.

Only thing I can offer is that I knew when I met women worth spending my time and money on when they were the ones who wanted to pursue me. Im not saying relationships do not work unless shes the one initiating things. But I am saying that you wont really know where you stand with girls who dont show the same enthusiasm and sacrifice that you do. If you lose your job, lose your car or whatever, those women could show you a different side of themselves that no amount of pretty can make up for. Taking your example, I knew this one girl was different when she would drive miles to see me. Sure, I also drove to see her. But she had that same Hell yes Id drive for you attitude that I had for her.

Good luck with future dating.

You dont see a connection between a school shooting that took place because the parents encouraged gun use and bought the mass shooter his gun and a family posing with guns that the parents bought for their children?

This is one of those correlation does not automatically equal causation examples.

We could probably identify dozens, if not hundreds, of similarities that also dont ultimately mean much such as that pictured family eats breakfast and checks their social media every day and so does the school shooter. Youd have to prove that the examples lead to school shootings, considering that families all across the country also have multiple guns in their homes and train their children to operate them, yet never end up shooting anybody. In the 80s and 90s, a lot of people took it as fact that playing violent video games lead to more violent students. It just seemed so connected.

It sounds like youre doing things right to get your life in order. I agree with Boban. Your perspective will change when youve been able to put some emotional and physical distance between you and your ex. Meeting new people could help with that, but thats your call. Whatever you do, dont fuck it up by going back to your ex.

What if you were walking around and an alien grabbed you, stuck it's proboscis in your nose, and then for the next year your abdomen grew large, made you sick and depressed, and one day soon you could possibly die when the eggs hatch.

and you could easily remove the alien eggs and go on with your life... But there's law that says you can't. You don't have the right to your own body.

It's not about the abortion, it's about the right to your own body.

Thats not comparable.

Ive heard the scenario described before with variations like waking up with an important person, say a genius musician, attached to you and needing you to keep them alive. Regardless, these hypotheticals always start with the assumption that its a complete surprise and you never had any input at all. This would only be true if you were raped or a complete moron who did not know how babies are made.

Keep in mind that Im not making a pro life point, but merely pointing out that its not a good pro choice argument.

Sure, that example is not acceptable to absolutely everyone, but even those content creators who gripe about it arent socially accepted mainstream. You literally used the word incel to describe members replying in this thread, which is another indicator that a generalization like that is not really a problem like saying something racist.

I dont remember Barkley saying fuck the community, but maybe he did. He does say outrageous things, sometimes serious but sometimes for comedic effect. He definitely did say he was not a role model. His explanation was that kids should learn from their parents, not him.

As far as Jordan goes, who knows what hes done. Hes fairly quiet about it. I dont think he is obligated to do anything, although a lot of people expect the rich and celebrities to use their platform to contribute. I never had that expectation, so its not disappointing when they dont.
