We tried so haaard, and got so faaar 🎵

This is the shit that conservatives think we care about

“Patriarchy” is a funny way to say “Capitalism” so the concept can survive and that is just needs more women to be in positions of power to exploit it.

Sorry but that’s a bad and extremely reductive take. There is absolutely a unique factor of oppression towards non-cis-men that

a) evolved historically
b) reproduces itself in our current economic system, but
c) isn’t guaranteed to dissolve and could be perpetuated in a post-capitalist economic system and
d) could be eased even under capitalism and materially benefit those affected

Ignoring this factor of oppression results in a reductive analysis of the kind of “let’s overthrow capitalism and everything will be great”

Yes - the liberation of women, trans people of all genders, non-binary people etc. necessitates an end of capitalist structures - but that alone won’t solve the problem. So saying “patriarchy = capitalism” is reductive.

And of course men suffer from patriarchal structures too - but it’s qualitatively not the same as the explotation of their labour or the way non-cis men experience gender oppression.

Fuck Dave

Does anybody remember BASED_BALL and after their ban the follow-up accounts when nobody knew whether it was the real one or not?

Because there’s two wolves inside the Linux community:

One wolf knows programming open source is programming communism

The other wolf is a Elon Musk wholesome 100 bitcoin techbro

NOOOOOOOOOOOO BUT HECKING E A DOES LOOTBOXESERINO, WHY ARE THEY SUCH A GREEDY COMPANY?

I noticed her more feminine presentation in the recent videos but I thought that was just because she was now out as bisexual and more comfortable presenting more feminine

How do I recalibrate my gaydar?

FAQ

What does this mean?

The amount of bears(points) on your post and Chapo.chat account has decreased by one.

Why did you do this?

There are several reasons I may deem a post to be unworthy of positive or neutral bears. These include, but are not limited to:

Rudeness towards other Chapos,

Spreading incorrect information,

Sarcasm not correctly flagged with a /s.

Am I banned from the Chapo.chat?

No - not yet. But you should refrain from making comments like this in the future. Otherwise I will be forced to issue an additional downbears, which may put your posting and commenting privileges in jeopardy.

I don’t believe my post deserved a downbear. Can you un-downbear it?

Sure, mistakes happen. But only in exceedingly rare circumstances will I undo a downbear. If you would like to issue an appeal, shoot me a private message explaining what I got wrong. I tend to respond to Chapo PMs within several minutes. Do note, however, that over 99.9% of downbear appeals are rejected, and yours is likely no exception.

How can I prevent this from happening in the future?

Accept the downbear and move on. But learn from this mistake: your behavior will not be tolerated on Chapo.chat. I will continue to issue downbears until you improve your conduct. Remember: Chapo is privilege, not a right.

Good morning

Sunday morning

I’d honestly get your leftist friends to read Luxemburg’s “Reform/Revolution” and Bernstein’s “Evolutionary Socialism” if they get through that.

Honestly Luxemburg is the reason I’m a liberal and if they read her and aren’t convinced she’s totally wrong then they earned radicalism.

Yeah, let the leftists read theory, that’ll show them :galaxy-brain:

This thread is so weird lmao. I didn’t know what you were talking about and posted multiple posts today, I think it’s neat to remind people about specific communities, because it does seem like everything gets posted to !main@hexbear.net which clogs main and drains other comms.
