Bruh I forgot “charts” are still a thing. I’ve not listened to an artist above 600k monthlies on Spotify in like 5 years neither does anyone I know. We’re all in our niches. I guess this “death of common big media/pop culture” is yet another intellectualist bubble.

Most Americans don’t understand what an election is they just think it’s funny content like pranks or something

Not a meteorologist but definitely aliens. Don’t get probed man.

What?

Nobody is trying to be manipulative bro, the boogeymen in your head aren’t trying to be offended - you come off like an asshole that’s why they’re assuming you are.

Kamala lost. The idpol of kinder language is a trashfire and a failure because the assumption that “empathy” is a shared quality among humanity is wrong and “bloodlust” is actually far more common, while complete ignorance and anti-intellectualism and accusations of “overthinking” prevail over both as you can see in the programming.dev techbro below.

Talking about how language influences views of marginalized or minority groups is useless when most people can barely even read more than a paragraph without bitching because they never developed reading stamina.

As for those who make these conversations necessary in the first place - they will always use the meanest word they can and all this has done is fed fuel to reactionaries.

There are far more important real fights to fight, like access to HRT and surgeries for people suffering from gender dysphoria - a crippling disorder, before you metropolitan libs start going on about “trans-femmes” and “masculine gendered language”

☝️🤓 - HR sounding ass

That’s rough. That said as a trans woman (no idea what a trans-femme is) I don’t see a problem with it in the context of “you guys”.

I use “dude” as a general exclamation towards my own also-trans gf sometimes even. Really y’all oughta chill on the language policing. If you pass people will treat you like the gender you look like, if you don’t, they won’t really, no matter how much they try, and your main issue is not passing and thus money which can fix that, not other people and their language use.

Yeah I’m not so sure anymore either. I used to buy into this thinking from personal experience, like nobody amongst any generations could have the nuanced detailed discussions about progressive subjects like race and gender and it’s depiction in media as your typical Gen-Z or millennial on Tumblr or Reddit and all those massively popular decent video essayists and science communicators on YouTube, heck even the right wingers used to make fun of millennials for “heckin’ science” and whatnot.

But now it’s like there’s been a change, now everything is so massively anti-intellectual, people unironically say that a paragraph is too long to read in comments they choose to browse, simplicity is glorified versus complexity/reality/nuance.

Perhaps Gen-Z is just far more polarized and radicalised in both directions. If I have to think of the most “lame” thing someone could say in my generation and the most easily attacked position it’s to be an establishment or status quo simp like a milquetoast republican or democrat.

Also true

Aren’t tons of young adults also MAGA now

No

Plenty of nice scientific info in the thread but from a personal experience as someone who used to hit the bong 3x daily for months, it makes you okay with being bored, it’s instant entertainment, and at the end of it you feel stupid because you wish you’d done something with the time and been bored more to get that spark of creativity to come through.

It’s honestly what they deserve at this point. Honestly misinformation is a spook. Just Google it, if you’re wrong it’s your fault.

If these are so easy to verify you’d post them here yourself and own me with facts and logic like I’d deserve rather than resort to insults.

As it stands, I’m not even sure what primaries you’re referencing as there was no democratic primary this year. You sound like chatgpt spewing things that make sense at first glance but have little to do with reality. Either way, blocked.

You’ve got the coolest instance name I’ve seen btw! Not sure if it’s depression lofi band or a real thing but awesome either way

Delusional

That’s on them at this point

The Muslim vote in the end stayed literally the same, so did the Jewish vote. Most Americans prolly haven’t even heard of all this shit lol

students were arrested under their watch, a key demographic for them in a tight race. Students are often motivated canvassers. Their response to the outcry? There must be order. Get bent biden/harris.

Yes and most people support that. They see you as more unhinged than the anti-police protestors and think Trump must be onto something with demolishing the DoE if the nation students are protesting for who they see as Islamist terrorists.

they lost 25 electoral points in two fucking swing states directly related to this. In literal numbers codified in the outcome.

Source?

they completely fucking ignored the economic issues caused by corporate greed

Yeah that’s socialism. They already lost the Latino vote by being too socialist. The electorate wants tax breaks for Kelogg’s CEO.

Sigh. You didnt do well in math did you? Tell me where did the 20 million votes for biden last time go?

Some of them probably to Trump.

Trumps numbers are unchanged.

Are you an idiot? You’re implying that these are the exact same people just because the numbers are roughly the same?

Biden convinced a lot of swing voters due to COVID.

Never mind the fucking fact most adults dont vote.

Source?

And token handle the rest of your nonsense with the polling numbers.

Token handle? Like JRR Tolkien? Did you have a stroke?

FYI: https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fp2jwdarksy0e1.png

The vote count was roughly the same. Many dem voter swinged to Trump because they want a far-right ethnostate ruled by thugs and criminals.
