Can you explain this dogwhistle to those of us not in the know so we can recognize it in the future?

John Hughes is rolling and shitting and pissing in his grave that you said it was in New York. They go to Sears tower, they watch a Cubs game, what more could he have done???
They may seem far away but don’t forget that the frozen tundra where almost no one lives is also technically Canada and closer to Ruzzia so we have to DEFEND CANADIAN SOVEREIGNTY IN THE ARCTIC so that we can open the mines and oil wells and MAKE CANADA AN ENERGY SUPERPOWER as soon as it’s warm enough. If that doesn’t convince you, doesn’t matter, it’s Ukrainophobic to not want war with Ruzzia
Had some purple potatoes a few days ago and they were sick as hell
From this picture he seems happy about it. He is probably in a lot of pain. I know it can be hard to accept, but it’s time. This is the right thing to do.
“How unsafe it is to ask questions” are you for real
Please grow up. Criticism of the niche internet celebrity you have a parasocial relationship with on a social media site with a userbase that doesn’t even crack 6 figures is not a real problem.
Countless trans people facing unimaginably greater levels of persecution and with far less privilege than Natalie somehow manage not to deny the Palestinian genocide
Then I’m confused as to what the reason was for bringing it up
As another trans person disgusted by this blatant attempt to use our identity to excuse or deflect from genocide denial, you put it all into words far better than I could have. Thank you comrade. The implication that people aware of the true scale and horror of this genocide are simply exposing themselves to violent content for some kind of sick pleasure is especially disgusting, thank you for calling it out.
Is the mention of trans genocide meant to imply that as a result trans people are currently beyond criticism? Even when they themselves are downplaying or borderline denying a different genocide?
This is kind of a “draw the rest of the fucking owl” answer
His kimchi grilled cheese video is a masterpiece. The idea is awful enough but the execution is somehow even worse. Cooks it on an open fire, burns the bread to black, cuts it open and says “beautiful, the cheese is melted” as we are shown a shot of the cheese clearly not melted in the slightest. Makes me want to try to get on Hell’s Kitchen just to make it and have him scream at his own recipe.

In White Castle no less, burgerlanders must be devastated
Fair enough. I just meant like “fuck off”, “shame on you”, “fix your heart or die” seemed a little aggressive to me if there wasn’t something to incite it. Especially with how the graffiti suggests this place is quite based, doesn’t seem like the people who need to hear such messages would be there lol
Based indeed, but why are several of the messages left behind kinda hostile? Is this a Starbucks, or is there some reactionary graffiti I’m not noticing that people are responding to?
Alleviating suffering is an incredibly admirable endeavour, and it is certainly true that at this moment the majority of suffering in our world is unnecessary and a result of injustice. However at the same time, even in an ideal world suffering will exist, it is a fact of human existence. Even in a classless moneyless society we will still feel the sorrow of heartbreak, the grief of a loved one’s passing, the pain of injury and disease, the existential angst of wondering who you are and what your place in the world is. These are topics which spirituality and religion address in a way that materialist analysis often fails to. We do ourselves no favours by denying this fact, we just appear like out of touch assholes to the countless people who find relief from suffering through spirituality and religion.
Adding to this, I hate transit stations that don’t have ticket machines. The BRT station near me has an indoor waiting area, wifi, an arrivals board, but no ticket machines. Gotta go to some random convenience store almost a kilometre away to reload your card instead. Why do they do this.
Oh my god, there are far too many to name and I’m always looking for someone to listen to my ranting about terrible transit. Sorry, but for asking this question you’re now going to get a very large wall of text.
1: A lack of signal priority. Countless hours of collective human time have been wasted in transit vehicles waiting at completely empty intersections for a red light to change because the traffic signal uses the state of the art technology called a timer.
2: Terrible right of way. Way too many transit agencies place their transit lines not based on where demand is highest or where transit will be most effective, but just where land is cheapest or where the transit agency already owns. The principal rapid transit line in my city runs along a river because the city already owned the land, but it means that literally half of the area surrounding the transit line is just completely useless because it’s water. Highway median transit is another example of this, which can often lead to…
3: Terrible land use surrounding stations. Almost without fail transit stations in North American cities are surrounded by parking lots, highway interchanges, or just straight up undeveloped land.
4: The North American light rail obsession. Nearly every single new or recently built rapid transit line in the US or Canada is done using trams, often running partially on the street, with absolutely no consideration for if this is the right transit solution for a given city. Link in Seattle is a good example. It’s absolutely absurd for a city the size of Seattle to have light rail. A city of 4 million people in any other developed nation would have a proper metro, but because Seattle is in America it gets a shitty light rail.
I may return to update this later but this was all I could write for now
I’ll preface this by saying it’s just a guess, I have no evidence for this idea, but maybe it’s because tobacco doesn’t cause social disorder in the same way as alcohol. Nobody ever got into a fight because they smoked too many cigs yknow?
