I didn’t know much about these subjects at the time, but I couldn’t help but notice the elephants in the room.
Don’t get me started on Kramer versus Kramer or Thelma and Louise.
The whole movie is problematic.
the message seems to be that sexism is real but the obstacle to feminism is women’s fickle, wimpy ways, and only a man can really stand up for them. Also, subplot, competent white men can’t get jobs because of affirmative action. Tootsie 2 would be in blackface.
One of the things that brings me the greatest despair in authoritarianism is watching people react to state violence the way they react to domestic violence.
By justifying anything and everything the perpetrators does through blaming a victim for failing to be submissive enough.

They remind me of CEOs or startups who do their own TV commercials. I basically would never buy a product from a CEO who does this because if they're so deluded as to their charisma, their quality and safety control of their products can't be good.

07.10.2025 05:48 — 👍 8 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Moderation of social networks requires censorship, but it should be done judiciously and fairly. Even when it is done unfairly it is not a 1st amendment violation unless the government does it.
07.10.2025 05:47 — 👍 11 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0That is incorrect. The thing you are thinking of is 1st amendment violations in the US. Only the government can violate the 1st amendment because it only bans government censorship. But censorship itself can be done by anyone with power over others speech. Check the dictionary to verify this fact.
