If other sites are anything to go by, drama. Nothing but complete and total drama. Stats are ok, but only if they support maximum drama. Play analysis and tactical discussion is completely unacceptable.

Yeah, and I’m also not extracting grandma

You’re not supposed to have fun. You’re supposed to learn so you can get a job that you enjoy.

Hi, elder leftist here. The whole education system is already set up to produce obedient workers. If you don’t believe me, ask yourself how much time is spent teaching kids to organise effectively, or advocate for issues they care about. Or even just build good communication with their classmates, like how to react to bullying.

All that matters is to follow the authority, don’t question the rules, put the things in your head that they give you and nothing else.

The reason kids are bored in school is because the current system doesn’t address the real problems they have, so why should they care about the system.

Luddites, the original ones were pretty rad. They were anti tech for anti capitalist reasons.

I agree that Luddite is the more correct term since it’s more general now, but I hate that the term got warped over time to mean anyone that hates any new tech

“I have to work 3 jobs to make rent and health insurance”

“But look at the numbers! We’re almost at full employment! Isn’t that great?”

Soft rain and an umbrella

You don’t have to put rainbows on anything if you don’t want. I don’t even use rainbows!

The main thing is, when you hear someone in a cishet group spouting homophobia, be the one to say “hey that’s not cool”. Lots of people say they’re allies and put it on their social media and whatnot, but where it counts is just being able to stick up for us like you would for any mate when the time comes

If I’m being honest, the only thing that would be strange to me is why wouldn’t you consider yourself an ally? It sounds like there are are a lot of important people in your life who are LGBT. I guess if you’re wondering about perception, someone who has a lot of queer friends but doesn’t want to stand up for them usually rings alarm bells in the LGBT community. Not saying that’s you, just in general.

But I will say from personal experience, allies are like gold for me. Love them all to death.

And no worries, I feel like it’s a respectful question. Hope you can keep learning!
