in south africa they’ll murder racists like you for free 😉

“more diversity” includes people whose entire lives are politicized, so you have to pick between “more diversity” and “less politics”, you cannot have both

banning communists opens up space for fascism? whoever could have predicted! 🤯

quit your planet-destroying job

“couldn’t hurt” is a weird turn of phrase for the suggestion of “lubricate the soles of your shoes” 🙃

everything to the left of monarchism = Marxism, apparently

though I’ll agree with you that the rabid anticommunism on .world will definitely help Redditors feel at home

and wow promoting that unhinged naming scheme for US/UK English, really another incredible echelon of coloniser-brain

“what […] Americans did to [their] native population” you mean continuing the genocide that the British colonists enthusiastically started?

he became popular by resisting exaggerating and misrepresenting a government mandate restriction on hate speech

fixed that for you

the person he encouraged to kill themself?

São Paolo in Brazil and Grenoble in France completely banned outdoor advertising, various other cities and regions (Amsterdam, Bristol, Vermont) have heavily restricted them. Dare to dream bigger than policies which have already existed for decades 😝

yes because alcohol prohibition and the WaR oN dRuGs worked out so well /s

if only Facebook had started in 2004 and not 2024 we might have some historical evidence about how the company handles moderation or community safety or protecting user data or…

if only threads wasn’t launching literally today and we knew if they’d enthusiastically welcome hate accounts like Libs of Tiktok https://www.mediamatters.org/libs-tiktok/timeline-impact-libs-tiktok-told-through-educators-health-care-providers-librarians

Wikipedia is hilariously biased, especially on any politics or history topics.

A female changing room (noun adjunct)

Noun adjunct is a noun functioning as an adjective.

“A male character has no stats difference compared to a female.” (Probably an adjective but arguably not)

“female [character]” definitely an adjective

“female-only” is an adjective phrase where “female” is a noun. Compare “lion-only zoo.” Adjectives don’t work here (× big-only zoo)

Yes “female-only” sounds gross.

the only examples here which don’t sound completely gross are the ones where you misunderstood the part of speech…

exactly this

english is a great language with which to get into a habit of saying “according to,” or “traditionally,” before statements like these.

if “why they use” is understood as a question, then it’s functioning as a question. to try to point out a “mistake” in english against some supposed objective or better standard is to fight a classist, sisyphean, and intellectually unrigorous battle against the reality of language in use. spare yourself the frustration.
