? What does this have to do with liberals?

[–] Justus@lemmy.ca -2 points 1 day ago

Sure. But I “made” this one and thought it was funny

It’s about standing up when someone picks a fight with you. It’s not turtling or capitulating.

It’s not throwing punches to escalate, it being aggressively defensive though. It we get into a tussle, you’re not coming away unscathed, you’re going to take an elbow to the chin.

Sure it’s about trump. He’s the one attacking, who we have to defend against. I’m guessing you’re not a hockey player. Maybe the context doesn’t make sense to you.

I have no idea what renaming anything would have to do with this concept

If you think the exact same way you thought 20 years ago, well you’ve wasted 20 years.

Bragging to Peterson that he never changes his mind is just stupid. Always talking about growth but admitting he has no interest in personal growth. What a broken human

What does your mother/wife/daughter think when you tell them that you call women you disagree with cunts? Does that make them feel good?

[–] Justus@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Right. Simple question. Total cop out. Why doesn’t word cunt in the context of your mother make you uncomfortable? I don’t think you actually made a point

[–] Justus@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 week ago (3 children)

How often do you call your mother a cunt?

Aussie vs can or us. Yes different cultures

I mean, it’s a Canadian sub talking about Canadian politicians. It may be different if we were talking about Aussie politics. I’ve been to Australia, lived in nz for a year, I’ve used the term with buddies pretty often.

It is different when you’re speaking about a woman in power (awful woman in power) and take all her horrid aspects and boil them down to a demeaning misogynist term. There are a million different insults that can be thrust upon her. Why does it have to be one that means vagina. Whether it’s been appropriated or not by other cultures, here in Canada it is misogynistic and is interpreted so by nearly every woman here
