I think this is what it feels like to be radicalised. I've been feeling that a lot lately. What hope is there in this utterly corrupt system? Honestly, where's the fucking hope??

You think you have no faith in the system because you're no dummy, but you always really do; you have that small hope things can improve, the little flicker. Perhaps that's just youth. Now? I know I have no faith at all. I feel it, and it's a black, deep, dark hole where no light exists. And it's not just in the "system"; it's in humanity as a whole. Fuck, I hope this is just my depression talking. They place brick after brick upon you and you look to others for something, anything, and the majority of people don't see the problem and they'll argue in favour of the bricks. I'm so sick of it.

I know this isn't useful.

Dems need to remove the filibuster and remake the SC as deeply as possible into something as different as possible. Anything short of that and nothing will change.

I'm glad you admit it was bad judgement(At best) but it's still he supported it at worst or he still supports it as worster.

Also thread got weird with someone calling 'getting to third base' heteronormative and anti-lgbt

The bases are just heteronormative bs that I wish folks would move on from so it's probably for the best.

What's heteronormative about it? I don't even know what about it would be restricted to certain genders or sexualities

The baseball metaphor is heternormative because it flattens the sexual experience into a series of distinct, hetero-focused actions, with fourth base (the "goal") being penetrative sex. Queer folks don't necessarily engage with sex within these distinct actions – many gay men and lesbian women don't participate in penetrative intercourse at all, for example – so the baseball metaphor necessarily can't be applied to all or even most queer sexual relationships.

Not all heterosexual couples have intercourse either, btw, so your argument has a fundamental flaw in it.

All sexual relationships have some escalation, though, and given that there aren't hard-and-fast rules for what the various bases apply to, I see no reason why it couldn't be applied to queer relationships as well.

… sure but the metaphor is literally based on heterosexual sex.

And definitions can be expanded over time.

Again, there's literally zero reason why queer sexual relationships couldn't also have an escalation scale, and there's also no reason why every analogy has to apply to every person.

If a man has tried to touch the statue's penis instead of a woman, the third-base analogy would have still made perfect sense.

and blueballs wonders why we make fun of that place

Even if it is heteronormative, literally who gives a shit? How dare the overwhelming hetero majority talk about sex in ways that applies to them?

That has to be a troll. There’s no way it’s not

Why is calling America a sick country inflammatory but calling a developer pro colonizer isn't?
