I would say that but too me it’s been apparent since long before lemmy was set up

I used to watch all their gang beasts episodes. They were amazing. Lovely to hear they are still around.

Edit: the videos are 9 years old now. Holy fuck.

Funny you mention the MCU because the audience for those movies is practically the same. For everything I’ve read and seen it basically sounds like a animated MCU movie

Teens dating are the norm in most Asian countries what are you on about?

You mean in the middle east where women are basically seen as property in most of those countries. Literally not able to leave the house without a chaperone. Or you mean Asian countries like South Korea which is facing the same issues to such an extent that incel like public policies are bring implemented or Japan which again is facing literally the exact same problems.

I mean you won’t be able to save absolutely everyone but you’d be amazed how many get into abusive relationships because they don’t know any better. Not even just abusive relationships either just relationships were they aren’t valued that much.

Yup. We wonder why young people are committing suicide more often when their entire self worth is based on how good they do in school. You combine that with late stage capitalism necessitating two parents working meaning the child might not even see them that much. More kids are neglected with their grades being the only source of validation. It would help so much of them being taught how to love themselves.

Not true. Its never been as bad as 63% not in relationships and 15% having no close friendships. Its clearly an issue that has gotten worse evertime. Why do you think this period of time is known as the loneliness epidemic.

I get what you mean. I am on the autism spectrum and I struggle significantly with socialising with people. You know I just find it difficult. And there’s no one that really reached out to me when I was a teenager. What broke that cycle for me was being the one who reached out and made friends with people other people never cared about. You know sometimes being the one that breaks a cycle like that can be powerful and it can even give you a stronger sense of self worth. But that’s just for me. It might be different for you because I am a very extroverted person I just really struggle with the making connections part.

Yeah. There needs to be a stronger push for communities.

Boggles my mind how in the late 80s how much the Filipino had to do to get his dad out of power only for them to vote in his son (who has the exact same name as him) out of nostalgia for the good olde days.

I would like to apply please. For the community engagement team

What you describe as “voluntary” homelessness sounds to me like the devastating physiological effects of drug addiction.

If most people are not ok with this then explain why the tories have such a death grip on the electorate. Most people in the UK will just shrug their shoulders few will actually have the balls to say they support this. These same people are outraged with Corbyn doesn’t sing God save the queen but are alright with literally making giving homeless people tents illegal. Try to suggest any social programme and grandpa will break out the fucking abacus but fuck the homeless I guess.

Yeah. The fact that so many people are ok with this mask off cruelty is astonishing. No one sees the connection between the cost of living and sky high rents leading to an increase in homelessness. No one sees until they are on the streets themselves.

An air fryer. Those things are miracle machines.

Yeah. Seeing tons of people claiming the vote was too vague and that people wouldn’t understand while also clearly understanding what this amendment was and what it’s implications are has been pretty odd to say the least

If you want to defeat Hamas the best way to go about it is to give Palestinians rights and agency over their land. Invading the Gaza will only make Hamas stronger. Once their homeland is gone they will always come back, they will never forget and they’ll want revenge against any country that remotely assisted Isrsel.

A good way to start would be making sure they have adequate political representation. Shutting them out of the politically. When you don’t get a groups voice in when making decisions that can lead to consequences. Big issues that aboriginals face in extremely high unemployment, decaying infrastructure and high incarceration rates.

Yup. Can’t understand why UN weapons inspectors allow Israel to have white phosphorus.
