We’re fighting the war on car dependence.

Cars are fine but car dependance isn’t, our cities shouldn’t be built in a way that requires a car for everyday like.

Requiring that your citizens own a $10000 - $35000+ depreciating asset just to live life is a tragedy that lessens economic mobility and punishes your most vulnerable.

Honestly yes but it seems like it might be one of those things where the cast is just fun to work with so everyone’s having a good time.

it sure is! I proxy watch it by being in the same room as my wife!

Can someone explain to me why Pirate Software has such a big problem with it, I tried to look it up and I’m still struggling to understand.

I eat them.

I couldn’t agree more unfortunately it just feels like the only real solution would be one at the government policy level

I can’t imagine trying to pay with cash anymore, stores aren’t really set up for it anymore

I hear your frustration, and I won’t deny that some feminist spaces have blind spots or even hostility toward men’s issues. But dismissing the entire movement because of those flaws is like rejecting democracy because some politicians are corrupt it throws out the good with the bad. Feminism, at its core, is about dismantling rigid gender roles, which harms men too (e.g., stigma around male vulnerability, custody biases, conscription).

You’re right that some self-labeled feminists don’t live up to that ideal, but that doesn’t negate the millions who fight for parental leave, against male suicide stigma, or for LGBTQ+ rights. If you’ve been burned by hypocrites, I get it but I’d encourage you to judge ideas by their best advocates, not their worst.

That said, I’m open to your examples. If we agree the goal is equality, maybe we can find common ground on where movements fall short.

Maybe in some circles but I’ve always felt welcomed and supported by the women around me. I’m sorry that you can’t say the same.

I want you to know that your feelings are valid but please don’t let the actions of a few reactionaries spoil the entire ideal that feminism stands on.

The only one I could use would be 5.

If I had to pick 4, 5, 9 and donate the money.
