      They get told what to feel every night on the Fox Lies channel, they hardly need the projection. Don’t worry, Daddy Tucker will command you, just do what you’re told, like a big strong man.

        Anyone still using twitter should be considered far right,

        Changing platforms can be a death sentence for an entrenched artist. Also, Threads is a miserable experience, Mastodon’s decentralized nature makes it confusing to navigate (especially for the olds), and BlueSky simply doesn’t have enough content to engage people at the same level.

        It’s ironic, but a big chunk of the trans community is effectively stranded on Twitter purely thanks to decision paralysis. They all want to leave but nobody has enough sway to send them in the same direction.

        Maybe if Elon can get himself banned in a few more countries. BlueSky got 3 million brazilian new users practically overnight last week.

          As seen with Tumblr decay, and then Twitter, I think proprietary platforms will never be a safe haven por LGBT communities.

        Unfortunately some of my favorite lewd anime artists more or less only share there. So it’s either use that for the following feed for manually check their tags one by one daily on gallery sites

            Same reason as everybody else: because everybody else is still there. I’m almost alone on my Mastodon, Bluesky, Threads, and Tumblr.

            Almost no one has ethical ownership as a priority when picking a social media, the deciding factor is always who else is on there. Weirdos like you and me are way ahead of the adoption curve.

            I believe that fediverse platforms are superior, they’re more structurally resilient and they will outlive Twitter and Reddit and all corporate social media; but that’s a bet on the long run.

        It’s going to be so cool to see reactionaries lose their shit, while they struggle to decide if she’s too black, too woman, or not enough of each.

        I fully expect next year is the year we see conservative politicians start using the N-word openly again.

          Never if you’re a middle aged white guy. Then where would Bitcoin and sports gambling advertisers find a target rich environment to fleece?

          That’s half Tucker’s ad revenue

    It’s actually wild how insecure people get over the subject of veganism. I still browse Facebook as a lifeline back to my friends and family back home, and for some reason my algorithm serves me up pro-meat posts jam packed full of rednecks losing their minds over vegans and making piles of meat and juice their personality. I eat meat myself (albeit in very small quantities compared to before) and I just don’t get the insecurity.

    Maybe it’s being married to a lifelong vegetarian that helps, but man, I’ve honestly come to enjoy a lot of meat alternatives. Beyond Burgers/Sausages are great. IKEA’s plant-based balls are too (their veggie balls still suck ass and just taste like bell peppers). Gardein’s supreme chick’n nuggets/fillets and 7-grain tenders are also delicious.

    Shit has really come a long way and it’s gotten to where larger portions of meat actually rip my intestines apart and give me disgusting bouts of gas and bloating. Basically just down to the occasional fast food burger, chicken quesadillas and seafood. Meat is still really tasty, but the vegans are right. At this point we’re just eating it because it tastes good. The longer I go without relying on it, the more fucked up the entire industry becomes to me.

      Haven’t been in an ikea for years. What’s the difference between a plant based ball, and a veggie ball?

        Veggie ball is full of pieces of corn, bell pepper, onion, etc. It’s colorful inside and out. Tastes heavily of those things too. The plant-based ball resembles a brown meatball in both appearance and consistency, but made entirely with plant-based ingredients. They’re awesome on a bun with marinara and mozzarella.

        Don’t know about Ikea, but when I see this distinction it is usually because the item is made of specific vegetables, where as the plant-based is usually textured vegetable protein.

        Basically veggie balls don’t try to look like meat, a vegan meatball does try to look like meat

      I assume you’re implying that John’s problem is that he’s constantly called out for shitty behavior by the groups listed. I think everyone understand’s John’s problem, they just think he’s wrong.

      Johns problem is generally that he’s insecure and needs a scape goat because he can’t accept responsibility for his fuck ups.

      So he picks a few minorities to target so he doesn’t need to acknowledge that he fucked around too much in high school or did too many drugs.

      He doesn’t even need to be a majority, because there will always be someone else to blame
