One person responded with “because modding and boobs are fun” and if that was the only response the furries gave to that post it would’ve been so normal. Instead it’s Nuremberg Trials but with dog titties
"if you say that you find something that makes me horny a bit weird you are literally Goebbels burning down the Institut Fur Sexualwafflemaker" tumblr socialisation has nuked your mind

Not sure how bad the deepfake problem is? Read Stella's farewell thread.
This is an extreme form of remote sexual harassment that can now be used to target anyone, regardless of platform, in seconds. Despite news stories focusing mostly on CSAM it's still unchecked and rampant on Twitter.

I‘m discontinuing my social media use for the foreseeable future and I want to explain why.
I woke up in the new year to discover that some guy on here had saved photos I took on New Year’s Eve and used Grok to remove my clothes. I know this because he showed me.

If banning conversion therapy for all people would make your religion 'illegal' then your religion deserves to be illegal.

Loads of us are poor, most of us don't choose to join the racist murder squad about it. Constrained choices are still choices and I would choose anything over becoming an enforcer of imperialist brutality 🤷♀️

Full-throated admission that torturing queer people and designating women as reproductive property is core to the sanctified patriarchy of your belief system.

So the zealots whose entire conception of "feminism" is defending the legitimacy of 'woman' as mother and womb are buying into nationalist, reactionary politics?
The story here is actually how shit most people's definition of "left-leaning" is.

This is the biggest and most important thing. Pretending it isn't happening and hoping it goes away is naive. It will neither stop nor end until it is MADE TO.
The sooner you realise that "Who's gonna stop me?" is what motivates the bulk of conservative politics and animates today's male grievance movement, the better.

The fact this brave child-murderer is blocking everyone dunking on him (for the crime of racist mass murder and such) is funny. Courageous enough to go shoot unarmed civilians and children, but not enough to face some social media criticism!

Feels like for a lot of people, the president's biggest sin is just being to blunt too put a nice, jingoistic, propagandistic cover on what the what US is and does and always has been.
