ok I'll bite, because I must be missing the bus in the last 10 years. Please do tell what propagandas, as in topics, or ideas, Netflix and Disney are pushing and so was Vice? Thanks.

Hehe, are you sure, you want to be filled in on the latest dystopian woke terrorism?

It is the usual. They propagate homosexuality, gender identity, feminism. All the bad stuff. Probably also propagation of witchcraft, if you ask more religious opponents.

(Seriously, considering Disney as progressive, is very weird in my opinion. And the person you replied to, did not actually think Disney is doing Propaganda, it was a mocking statement to the initial post)

I see. So remakes with women, gay people having roles in TV etc. I guess if you're a religious zealot that would hurt. I miss the days where you had to be intelligent to be on the internet. Sorry, but social media royally fucked up humanity into a polarised war of opinions.

" Sorry, but social media royally fucked up humanity into a polarised war of opinions."

I rather think it made those polarised opinions more visible. The divide existed before, extremists on all sides just had less broad interaction. Now they read each other on the internet and can directly jump on each others throat. And with less restraint, than in real life, as all semi anonymous.

That's very true. We've given every village idiot a platform to shout out loud world wide.

Yeah yeah, girls get it done is of course the most believable trope ever.
Re:Vice files for Bankruptcy by keyle on Monday May 15, 2023 @06:23AM (#35945987)
I'm sorry but they do get it done, just look at your mother. It's silly to silo roles based on sex. Embrace the differences, you'll live a much happier life, rather than being sold the idea of segregation based on anything. Segregation sells clicks, it sells views, it sells ideas.

As for entertainment, it's entertainment. If you're referring to women remakes of films, it's not my cup of tea either, it doesn't mean that it's bad entertainment and the other half of the planet can enjoy it.

Mentioning my mother in this context is as counter-productive as possible. In fact, if it were not for my mother, I would give women a bit more slack.
Re:Vice files for Bankruptcy by keyle on Monday May 15, 2023 @07:26AM (#35946490)
I'm sorry to hear that. Apologies.
Re:Vice files for Bankruptcy by hutzlibu on Monday May 15, 2023 @08:13AM (#35946982)
Whatever your mother did or didn't do to you, she gave birth to you. That is already something big.

Would you rather her have not done this for you?

Destroying is easy, creating is hard.

(and raising a child in this world is as well)

"if it were not for my mother, I would give women a bit more slack."

And whatever happened, you are saying clearly, that because of one women, you see all women less. Maybe that's not fair?

That is part of the problem. That some people believe that getting laid and following through with the consequences is actually an acomplishment. It is not, it is how nature works. Once that is done, the work actually starts, and it starts to become relevant what sort of human you are. How much you know, frankly, how intelligent you are.

Besides, since you seem to love to trigger me with just the "right" sentences:

   Would you rather her have not done this for you?
Yes, now that you ask, I would have prefered if she didn't do that. Why that is is a bit too complicated to pack into a single reply. Just dont assume that your way of seeing things works for others.

Do you think, giving birth is easier, than just taking a pill?

For men it is easy to "make babies". For women it isn't. They usually sacrifice at least a year for it. You aren't really productive, if your brain is a hormon slurry and everything hurts. And most women do get lasting injuries from the birth, taking years to recover. (have you ever sacrifized a year for someone else?)

So it seems, she tried at least. And then maybe discovered that she does not have anything more for you. Or not much.

That is shitty and not fair. No doubt and sorry to hear that.

But that is also how nature works. There is no fairness baked in anywhere. In the end life is a gift.

You can take it, or don't.

But if you continiue to choose life, you maybe would be better off, if one day you can let go of your anger over your childhood trauma of abandonment.

Sometimes things can work out with the old family. Sometimes not, but the world is full of people looking for a real family.

But a family can only work, if the partners respect and trust each other. And sorry if I am crossing a line again (I was aware with my question before, what your answer likely would be), but I think you would have a major struggle with that, with the fear of being abandoned again, this time by your partner. Which can easily lead to jealousy, pressure, all the usual stuff, breaking up and a new generation of half or full abandoned children.

And you might have sworn to yourself, that you would never abandon your children - but when you are done, you are done. I never thought I could get there, but I was close to that point with my children. Kids and everything around it, is undescribable intense, unless everything was set up perfectly before. And I am not aware of many such cases.

Your mother was a human. Faulty, with limited energy, understanding and naivity. Likely experienced her childhood traumatas.

She tried and failed - partly. Because you are alive and can choose now, what you do in this imperfect world of ours.

I am not sure if I understand you right, but are you saying girls are in general less competent?
Re:Vice files for Bankruptcy by lynx23 on Monday May 15, 2023 @06:46AM (#35946156)
Nope. I am against the woke trope that "everything is better done by a women". Absoulte statements like this and the one you tried to imply are always wrong.
Re:Vice files for Bankruptcy by hutzlibu on Monday May 15, 2023 @06:58AM (#35946263)
That's why I asked. (even though your other reply to keyle, implys otherwise)

And actually, I have not really seen that trope very much: "everything is better done by a women"

It surely exists somewhere, but can you give examples for this with any major production?

You missed the bus.
Re:Vice files for Bankruptcy by keyle on Monday May 15, 2023 @06:07AM (#35945870)
Thanks for confirming! I think it's okay to settle down and watch the same landscape after a while.
