Transwomen are not a joke. Full stop.

To what? Which character?

if the kid is doing their work and being at class at time, what's the incentive to be nice to the teacher? Why is it okay for adults to do "Minimum work Mondays" but it's not okay for kids to just show up to class, do their work, but don't give the teacher any ounce of respect?

This post made me realize I am more so talking about "best friends" like someone you would do anything you would also do with your wife/girlfriend minus being intimate.

Still absolutely possible, and the only reason to think otherwise is if you only think with your dick.

But you said:

Which would imply that she's a good example because her only qualifying factor for being considered right wing is hating trans people, when that hasn't been the case for a long time now.

That's fair, but why would you join the discussion to make assertions about what people believe if you're not well informed on the subject?

basically, "liberal" has come to mean "left" in a US context, but that doesn't really line up with what it actually is; the US is just skewed really really far to the right.

as an ideology, liberalism is more like center- to moderate right-wing ideology.

liberals as individuals might support some social justice movements for women/black people/etc.; and some might self-identify as left-wing because of it. some might even recognize the reality that social justice fundamentally cannot happen without economic justice.

the thing that fundamentally prevents them from being left-wing is that they naively believe that economic justice can be achieved under capitalism; and therefore they ultimately support the continuation of capitalism as an economic system.

as for "progressive": the term isn't necessarily tied to any specific political ideology, so it's fairly nebulous, but generally I think it kinda starts at the leftmost part of liberalism. that is; people who recognize that there are problems that need solving, but don't recognize that they're unsolvable under the current economic system

"liberal" and "right-wing" are not mutually exclusive categories. far from it in fact

So you don't know what you're talking about, but wanted to use her as an example of people virtue signaling anyway?

Bro, I dont know everything about her.

right, but the stuff you decide to speak on is exactly what you know the least about.

JK Rowling is a decent example. For the most part, she is fairly liberal to my understanding.

Totally ignores the context that JK Rowling also platforms messages of right wingers like Posie "armed men should use womens bathrooms to protect women" Parker and self described "theocratic fascist" Matt Walsh.

You must think we're fucking stupid if we're supposed to look at someone surrounded by people like that and think she's anything but right wing.

most ppl cant name one drake song though

Virtue signaling, strawmen.

You can literally load into a high demanding graphics game like RE8 in seconds from the ps5 menu and then never load again if you don't die, Im pretty sure

It's wild how obtuse you're being. "Just take the guns" is the most ivory towered/sheltered take there is to dealing with this issue. Posting your platitudes on a message board won't do anything but move your nose further into the air.

Yeah, great. Tell them to their face they aren't Hawaiian enough, fucking idiots

An average woman has a better chance of getting laid than an average man.

Its like, dudes can only think about ease of sex and just stop thinking there.

In the dating market, men absolutely have it harder.

And no, "stop dating online" isn't an option. Cold approaching women irl can have you put in jail or accused of being a predator if you're not good looking.

Brotherhood skims through all of the stuff in the original. Instead of a full episode + some build up the whole thing gets a bit less than half of an episode. Like, you barely even find out Nina's name prior to the events, which basically ruins any chance of caring.

Is there actually a game with that dynamic? Adult woman protecting a boy?
