Looks true 👍

Pretty victim blamey, NGL. Norms should be in place to ask for consent (tacit or explicit) before touching someone else

It's clearly sexual selection; high testosterone results in early baldness, which in turn is deemed unattractive.

Thus, in order to save western society as we know it, we need to start worshipping bald men as the virile hotties we all know they truly are.

While I'm a big fan of community action against bigotry and fascism (cable street based), I still don't have it clear in my head about how best to structure society to protect those without power. If you have a police force then inevitably it's going to serve the needs of the wealthy; if you don't then community justice is often also likely to favour those with more power.

What about anarcho communists 👉👈

While I agree with you that the actions of the man are horrible, I fundamentally disagree with your interpretation.

I do not think that this woman is the butt of the joke in any way; the comic is not punching at her. In fact, I'd argue if anything she is the person we are meant to identify with and cringe with. Her perspective is the one we follow throughout the comic; her slow realisation is one we the audience follow.

The butt of the joke is the man, and how he is unable to let go of his attachment to Wilson, the volleyball, after his time on the island.

I do not think it is morally objectionable to laugh at this comic, and I do not think the comic itself is morally objectionable, and further I think it completely lacks nuance to condemn art (even webcomics) just because it features characters who are morally objectionable.

Men on dating apps known for posing with fish. This long running web comic with swords. Thus sword fish gag :)

tw: mild transphobia, JK Rowling

On a podcast, Rowling defined the word 'woman' as the 'producer of the large gametes' (large gametes referring to The Egg), which is obvs terfy as it's attempting to reduce the category of 'woman' to the ability to produce eggs.

'large gamete producer' has since been taken up by terfs as a transphobic dogwhistle.

I had a mild hope it'd be an ironic username, but checked their Tumblr and the first post is digging up someone's dead name, so yikes.

Finally, the prophecy has been fulfilled

Happy sticking around here, for my vote

Now kiss

So block this instance? I'm not sure why you feel the need to post about it.

Also I have a bone to pick about the 'telling people how to think is wrong. We have a word for the latter and it's not pretty'. Firstly that's pretty polemic for no good reason. Assuming you're dancing round the word fascist, it seems pretty unpleasant and unnecessary to allude to the group that committed genocide of queer people and deliberately destroyed research into trans issues to set it back decades.

Now onto the substance of the claim -- that telling people how to think is fascist. This is completely absurd, the key difference being that fascists don't just 'tell people how to think'; they brutally enforce it with violence.

This post and the trans women making it are not about to use the full force of the state to prevent people thinking about transphobia. What they are doing is posting that, to take part in the community that they are investing money to host, you must unambiguously support trans rights.

The comparison you have implied is completely and utterly absurd, and the dramatic language and comparisons you have used to make it is cringe.
