I’ve even tried to HELP vegans by giving them useful tips on how to advance their cause, like, “Never bring it up under any circumstances,” or, “Stop making people feel bad by bringing up the consequences of their actions,” or, “Why don’t you try eating meat sometimes in order to be more relatable to non-vegans?” But they never listen to me! It’s like they completely write off what I’m saying just because I fundamentally disagree with everything they stand for and all of my advice essentially boils down to “Shut up and go sit quietly in a corner.” Clearly this proves that they don’t actually care about advancing their cause and just want to congratulate themselves and feel like they’re better than everyone just because they’re objectively reducing the amount of suffering in the world.

NATO is seeking to take control of decision-making powers on future aid packages — normally led by the US — in an effort to limit the impact of a potential second Donald Trump presidency on the ongoing conflict.

This is wild. It’s bad enough that the US president has the power to start wars wherever he wants with no congressional approval. But now they’re trying to make it so that the only people with the authority to withdraw from a conflict are unelected NATO officials accountable to no one.

Dronies will support this, because they love endless war across the globe and want to remove any potential for popular support to achieve peace.

Le average redditor is probably a native English speaker

Also i don’t think i like the suggestion that Chinese don’t know english.

“Knowing English” and “making subtle references that only work if everyone thinks of a cartoon character’s English name” are very different things. I assume that most people seeing Tigger will think of whatever his name is in their native language, regardless of how many languages they speak. You generally don’t cycle through different words in every language you know every time you see an image looking to find a pun.

It’s possible but it’s a really big stretch. It’s definitely not the main thing to be criticizing when people are painting an Asian person’s skin yellow.

I’m not really convinced that they would be making a reference like that that only works in English (and is a bit of stretch even then imo).
