It’s wild how often the “it was a different time” excuse doesn’t hold up. Like Shakespeare’s Taming of the Shrew is often defended this way but there were response plays *during Shakespeare’s lifetime* pointing out how insanely abusive and fucked up the play is in its treatment of women

For real. Trump can’t even handle comedic ribbing without throwing a fit. He’s got no right telling anyone, let alone pregnant women, how to tough anything out

Jenkins has to be trolling at this point. The statement about how she isn’t familiar with Kirk’s views because the media misrepresented his views is so blatantly dishonest and logically contradictory that it can’t be written in good faith

Women were publicly posting about their own assaults. That took astonishing vulnerability. It's on a completely different level from putting a flag emoji in your bio. CW suggesting they did it to impress friends reinforces the harmful myth that SA survivors only speak up for clout

Woof, Curious Witness's take on social movements is pretty ugly. Sure, peer approval plays a role but that doesn't mean #MeToo was mainly people "justify[ing] their own knee-jerk reaction to conform"

I hate the anti-democratic instincts of these pro-Newsom folks. "You must agree that Newsom is our only choice or else you want Trump to win!" Fuck that. We still have 3 goddamn years to pick our nominee. I'm not preemptively conceding that an empty suit and quisling on trans rights is our only hope

A thing I've noticed is that a good number of pro-Oxcom people just enjoy feeling superior for knowing what it is and don't actually care that much about parsing when it adds clarity to a sentence or not

I guess potentially but it would vary a lot depending on how much prompting actually happened. Like just prompting “give me X in the style of Studio Ghibli” isn’t describing every aspect and doesn’t feel very involved

What you're describing with AI generation sounds more like a patron commissioning a work than an artist creating said work IMO. Where would that type of interaction fit in your current thinking about this subject?

The NYT editorial staff just has to be trolling at this point. There’s no way they can honestly believe “Trump is duly elected and makes good points” is an effective resistance strategy

Yeah, I don't want to dogpile Stancil but I'm baffled how one can read any history on the French Revolution and come away believing material conditions played no role in fomenting revolutionary spirit

Plus one Dem doing a good job doesn't mean the whole party gets a pass from public expectations. They *all* need to step up like Booker did

Jesus, no wonder that person's co-worker asked if it was a phishing scam. "Reply 'resign' to this email to get money" sounds like the fakest thing I can imagine getting in my work inbox
