  • You’re allowed to have your opinion, but you are not protected from the consequences of your speech. That’s literally how free speech works. It’s just a dick move to come in for no reason whatsoever and rain on somebody’s parade. Like you read that comment and decided that you HAD to insult them. It’s free to not be an asshole. If people are saying absolutely brutal shit to you over your comment, then they are also being assholes.

    Bud, you need to take a breath. This was a thing before social media, I promise you. It’s not a psy op.

    It’s simple, toxic masculinity throughout the post war period led to a lot of men lying about their height (same for women and their weight during the same period). Over time public perception of what a tall person looked like shifted, and now every woman thinks that 6 ft is average height.

    This phenomenon came out of American advertising, not Russian agents.



  • I’m sorry that my government is making a mess for you and yours. But please don’t think that there is a lack of action. There have been basically nonstop (very liberal and mostly toothless) protests since before the election even, but the news refuses to report on them. Furthermore, there is a LOT going on from folks who would rather not advertise how they are resisting.

    A resistance to a fascist government cannot, by it’s nature, be public facing, so you’ll never know everything that people are sacrificing and doing every day. But they are. We are.
