  • [VIdeo] Recent Israeli ad for a marriage matchmaking service depicts a young white Jewish girl reject a young Yemeni Jewish boy for his ethnicity

    Jump

  • I literally can't find a scientific explanation. The closest is a reddit post that says most blondes turn brunette, so blonde hair is associated with youth. My spouse is an example.

    I'm mexican american. White, blonde, and blue eyes = rich hollywood star to mexicans. There isn't much research into the genetic preferences, so it could be a matter of forms of exposure? They watch a lot of american shows? I don't know.

  • I read elsewhere that he was detained for questioning due to financial ties to terrorist organization (probably partisan bullshit). The news says he celebrated Oct 7 but fails to supply evidence. I've seen like 4 articles with broken links so clearly something about this is making it tricky to report. CNN made sure to suck up to Isreal though. Not a lot of context available yet. Doesn't look good.

  • I struggle with the concept of forgiveness and consequences. There isn't an objective good. Someone who reforms can repeat the same mistake. There is no single state of existence that makes someone right or wrong at any given point. Sometimes, the difference isn't in the person but the environment. Things like the golden rule seem flawed and overly simplistic.

  • I mean, I didn't provide a lot initially and that's on me, and I think you're being sincere and I appreciate you're perspective. I didn't look onto leftwing male sub at all, I trusted without further research, my bad. I agree that it's disappointing to see so much incels in the comments, they completely validate her deflections. Even so, I can pretty clearly give the rundown of why I see her this way.

    She abused DMCA. This is bad for fair use. Fair use protects artists ability to speak freely. I'm also an artist so this hits close to home. You can't attack people for disagreeing with you (it's illegal).

    Regardless, she targeted the mods. The benefit to this is by eliminating all her content, she made all criticism disappear. Her choice in target was also an issue. Why go after BHJ and not other discriminatory hangouts on reddit? Is it because what they post is perceived as credible? Personally, I believe the mods were diligent, and I think so did she, which resulted in more valid criticism to rise to the top, and motivated her to go after this sub in particular.

    She also deflected blame to incels through posting. Hater comics, responses in comments, and the implicit brigading. The comics mods are a bunch of simps. She used them to blanket ban tons of people who clearly didn't deserve it. I think this is easy to miss, but she really doubles down on some shitty takes and dissenters get nuked by downvotes. Hivemind also happens here, but not nearly to the same degree.

    You can try to percieve all these actions in good faith. I don't. Her overreactions are in line with someone who is desparately insecure and controlling. I think the only reason we give a damn about this conversation is the same reason we ended up on lemmy—putting your eggs all in one basket. Comics has a lot of great work which is not so great if a mod bans you for not liking pizzacake.

    I think you probably understand where I'm coming from if you got this far, and I truly appreciate your time to read this because I spent an embarrassing amount of time writing this. If you still disagree, I can't say I blame you. This really is a rabbit hole for me to hyperfixate on. Either way, I think I got what I needed off my chest.

  • Man, you missed so much context.

    https://www.reddit.com/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates/comments/1dpyynb/misandry_from_a_popular_webcomics_artist_and_more/

    Top comment was a male SA survivor, pizzacake argued her misandry in a really sarcastic and insincere way ("men are even worse to men"), and then the mods banned the user and nuked the comment section.

    If you go there, it's been entirely scrubbed of criticism.

    https://www.reddit.com/r/comics/comments/1dpptkk/talk/

    Obvious BHJ was making fun of this in high volume. Mods were absolutely taking efforts to ban misogonist.

    https://www.reddit.com/r/bonehurtingjuice/comments/1dqkrqs/double_standards/

    This is what triggered her low faith response. I think going back and reading her tone worth context actually matters. The DMCA is absolutely bullshit. Even if you don't like what someome says, fair use is fair use. She took advantage of her status and weilded to her full extent because of course she did--she's an asshole.

    A while has passed and she finally rescinded her threats, but her comics remain banned due to the lingering resent of the community.

    I don't condone mysogony or misandry, speaking as a male victim myself. I've noticed she's removed some of her god awful takes, but man she really pisses me off. I mostly agree with her poltically and don't give a damn about her OF. I just don't want to be lumped with the incels, which she has effectively done for her critics.

  • It's a fucking bummer that the people here don't know how much of a Karen pizzacake is. I literally just wrote a long ass comment yesterday about why she in particular is a piece of shit. I know for some it really is the OF/blatant misogyny, but I really think people underestimate how shitty her takes are and the lengths she'll go to silence her critics through legal action or bans. People like her are part of the reason why Reddit is so god awful.

  • Pizzacake posted a comic. What if guys were sexually harrasssed? Top comment is a male survivor addressing insensitive tone of the comic. They get banned and the entire thread is nuked and locked.

    BHJ has a field day poking fun at her insecurity and simp mods overreaction. She does not like this. This is where Karen starts to come out. She demands mods take down negative posts. They reply asking for examples violating terms so they can help remove hateful content.

    She threatens DMCA takedowns against them. They add a rule banning her comics and decide to go public with DMs exchanged with her. It's a bannable offense to even mention her or attempt to circumvent this. She's absolutely insufferable.

  • There are 2 kinds of people: those who were born with empathy and those who learned to mimic it. You live among the descendents of nature's most extreme survivalists. The transactionalist is simply wired to act in best interest, which sometimes means feigning empathy.

    Religion seems to be an answer for these types of people. It's an escape from real and true empathy, a justification for acts that otherwise would be unacceptable.

  • Oh No!

  • My take is different. I know someone who started going to therapy because their kids threatened no contact. They're on medication now but the narcissism still persists. Now, they act enlightened and projects their shortcomings on to others by not so subtly encouraging them to watch self help vids that only validate their own feelings. They are basically going, "see? I'm better now. This video talks about letting the past stay in the past so we call all get along," but now the subtext is that the others are the problem.

  • There are different ways to interpret this. I don't think fiction should be a source of artificial validation, but I recognize there's value in finding something that resonates with you, even if seemingly mundane.

  • They have no issue dismissing the notion that Trump raped children because they've spent their lives hiding from inconvenient truths. What is religion but the laziest answer to all of life's most challenging questions? If you go into those cults, you'll find the members participate against their better nature because even their own commitment is lazy. For those people, comfort and convenience is king.
