anyway we’ve seen this a hundred times before. the conservative communities that produce this sort of overcompensation in self-loathing gay dudes (such that they become outspokenly anti-gay themselves in hopes that nobody will notice or that they’ll be able to cure themselves) aren’t going to be changed by the outing of someone Within Their Ranks, even prominent leaders being revealed to have had homosexual relationships doesn’t make them rethink their prejudices, they just see it as a personal failing of those particular leaders.
these are communities that have solutions for this already: conversion therapy, the narrative of the backslider who is saved by jesus for real this time, etc. etc.
without any other alternative community or support system these people go right back to the closet and continue, as a condition of their survival, to participiate in systemic homophobia and violence against other lgbt folks.
but hey at least some “well-meaning” liberals got a laugh out of it
Is it really a kink if no one is shaming it. Are kinks not by nature supposed to be violation of common sexual sensibilities? Kinks can’t exist without kink shaming, it’s simple dialectics
PROS
- Lifts workers out of poverty to brink of poverty
- One less thing to feel shitty about when leaving Chick-fil-A
- Shorter lines at pawn shops
CONS
- Workers will grow complacent and lazy if they can afford basic human needs
- Still just as insulting that your boss pays you lowest amount he or she legally allowed to
- Awkwardness of being served by cashiers wearing top hats and monocles
More.
i think we all have that one piece of media we like that’s basically “i love this thing, but i dont think everyone should watch this thing and would not categorically recommend it to other people i know, this thing has a lot of problems and i am the first person you should ask if you want to know a long list of criticisms, but i REALLY ENJOY THIS THING” its like holding up a can of trash to everyone else and saying “you are a reasonable person and you would not enjoy touching this garbage and i value that about you” and then pouring it out on the ground and rolling around in it yourself

I hope they make a new Steve Jobs biopic every year and it just slowly gets more and more distorted and ridiculous until 2055’s box office smash Steve Jobs: Fury Road
