I think we’ll eventually get to that stage - where everything is one big EU-like superstate. It would, of course, require that we don’t annihilate ourselves before then, but it seems to be the general trend at least. I doubt we’d ever get rid of borders entirely, though. Human beings are the same the world over, and should be treated as such, but the world itself is not the same everywhere. Life brings different challenges depending on where you find yourself. So there will always be a greener side of the fence for the vast majority of the population. That ‘temperature difference’ will always bring a certain conflict, and that conflict will always bring a certain siege mentality for those who are on the aforementioned greener side of the fence.

On the bright side, as climate change devastates the planet, we’ll all be living on the same 100-square-mile patch of land eventually, so this debate will be moot.

Joe Pesci, circa 1995

Joe Bond: You hear a little girl, Moneypenny? Where’s the big tough guy who told my friend to shove his pen up his ass? *more stabbing*

Q: Sir, please… *choke* I was just explaining… *cough* the pen’s unique bidet feature…

Joe Bond: Bidet feature? You made me pop your eye outta your head over a fuckin’ BIDET FEATURE? You dumb motherfucker!

Q: Sir, I apologise, but if you just… *splutter* use the pen’s other feature, the wound-cauterising laser, I might yet… *gasp* live…

Slightly different motivations in play. For a start, how can they be femcels if the whole premise of the app is to screen men for the purposes of safe dating? Secondly, screening men so you don’t get abused is not even in the same country, let alone ballpark, as doxxing people on 4chan because you’re an antifeminist incel, an actual incel, who wants to score points with other worthless societal lip crust.

Was it a perfect app and did everyone on it comport themselves impeccably? Of course not, but you’d be an obtuse bad faith dickhead to demand otherwise. It’s just the case that these are the kinds of lengths women have to go to to protect themselves.

And let’s be clear, men do the same shit. Men talk about their bad dates with psycho women and warn each other about them, and they share nudes and other private stuff that the women didn’t intend to be shared amongst the man’s friend group. We don’t need an app with photographic evidence and licence plates and addresses because the abuse men face is usually not being raped or beaten to a pulp. But if you’re a pickup artist or a virulent incel, you’ll probably have a database of women you’ve compiled for reasons other than your own safety. Stop pretending that the stresses of relationships that men and women face are equivalent.

That app is an emergent property of decades of men’s grotesque behaviour. Technology has now put some power into the hands of women so that they can quickly and efficiently share info with each other, and you expect them to wave away that power and just let RNG dictate whether they have a normal date or a survival horror video game.

Fuck 4chan, fuck incels, the end.

This is somehow more offensive to my brain than if they’d simply said “electricity is god”. The way they completely muddy the issue, making the reader not just misinformed but made to feel complacent, like there’s no correct information to be found, is way more grotesque. It shuts down the mind of the reader. It’s anti-education.

Maybe the father is a scumbag and cheated on her during pregnancy, so she posted this as a diss? That’s the only way this could make even a modicum of sense to me 😆

Conspiracists are such tedious fucking morons. Yeah let’s risk exposing ourselves and our shadowy organisation by committing a murder after the dude we wanna protect has already been convicted and is now dead and buried, and when the target is already world-famous and whose death will be greeted with the same moronic scrutiny and meme-brained bleating that greeted Epstein’s death. Yeah, let’s do that 👍

“But she specifically said she would never kill herself!” yeah, just her and literally every other suicidally-depressed person on earth who went through with it 🙄

Inventor of the Foote note. Not a lot of people know that.

I appreciate the 100% complete, unbiased and unvarnished picture of the situation Green OP (Gropey?) has painted for us.
