That might be the most based headline I've read in a long time

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah. There's been something of a drought recently though. Most of the headlines I read these days make me cringe like a salted slug.

Also I don't know how old Chelsea is now but she looks great in that photo

also the person that GRIMEs was dating, when musk was freaking out about trans people. 1 , 2punch nailed his entrenched transphobia, the other being her daughter.

Wait so Elon’s whole anti trans thing is because Grimes dated Chelsea Manning?

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 month ago

Right around when his ex daughter disowned him

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 month ago (1 children)

grimes dating chelsea kinda was the nail in the coffin for him going off the "deep end", its also why he so buddy buddy with jk rowling, she has a similar bizarre hatred, although with a "Feminist" twist, hence the name terf.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

jowling kowling rowling is one of the most misogynistic women I've heard of. terf is a misnomer; transphobia has a strong connection to misogyny.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago

No it’s because he feels emasculated by having a trans daughter. Because he’s got this weird breeding kink and can’t understand how someone can be born hating penises.

A dragon slayer and a rogue fair maiden meet in the halls of justice. The beginning of a merry band of adventurers!

Everybody likes United Health but this one is so, so much better

Reality Winner would be there but she’s serving her time like a real one.

Fuck Sabu.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Isn't she out by now?

[–] [email protected] 57 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I respect her but I really don't think she's helping here. She's muddying the issue - not to mention, a lot of people really hate her and Luigi doesn't need the second-hand hatred.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

I'm sad to hear this because I really like Manning. You're might be right though.

[–] [email protected] 57 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The people who don’t like her already don’t like him

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I think she’s a fucking idiot and I think he’s great. So not sure you’re right there.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

I read her book readme.txt, and she comes off as a very thoughtful person to me, much more than other memoirs I've read lately. I assume you think she's an idiot for the files she leaked? Or perhaps you think she's naïve that she can make a difference using her principled tactics. At least she's trying, y'know?
