Crazy, I would have thought reddit and lemmy were tight.

Many places won’t rent to someone that cannot prove monthly income greater than 3x the rent.

And just like that, suddenly Alles Scheiße is no longer cool, go figure.

Europeans are the masters of nihilism. It’s kind of honestly surprising your birth rates aren’t lower. We have our own growing culture of nihilism to battle and we certainly don’t need it harder.

Americans are far from prudes, but there’s a place and a time for nudity. If we allowed public nudity in advertisements, half of our billboards would turn into porn. If you don’t believe me, look at any state that’s legalize marijuana: it seems literally half of all advertising is for weed. Maybe if we didn’t have hyper aggressive market forces we could relax our laws a bit.

You are missing the point. Conservatism isn’t anything that you, specifically, believe it is.

Hmmm, I bet it’s no secret who your team is!

This place is very similar to reddit. Notably, chains of “removed by moderator.”

I’m not sure how you can be on lemmy or reddit and not recognize out-grouping from the left. Groups fundamentally define themselves by what they aren’t. And each group will strawman the other to strongarm their adherents into staying within the group.

Communist. Pink haired liberals. Nazis. Fascists. Meaningless boring out-group names that are repeated ad nauseum. But go. Indulge. Join a team and have fun. But don’t sacrifice real relationships for some politician. Be smarter than that.

Are you European? Do you think nothing matters? I have been around far too many Europeans that think that way and definitely do not look towards Europe for what I want America to be. Is it the desensitization of nudity? Probably not alone. But it’s one tiny piece of the nihilistic puzzle.

Look, you have it, you enjoyed it, and now it’s no longer a big deal. In other words, you no longer enjoy it like you once did. We’d rather not go that way. Everything in moderation. We’ll save the cyberpunk dystopia for another day.

I think Americans are mostly terrified of European nihilism and don’t want to fall into the same trap.

Driving drunk is known to be dangerous. People who indulge in that behavior eventually hurt others. We don’t wait for a drunk driver to crash into someone before we arrest them. We arrest them the minute they turn on their car while drunk.

Someone who indulges in sexualizing children will eventually hurt a child and we should not need to wait for it to happen before we arrest them.

I’ve said far milder stuff than this and had my comment removed for incivility.

We’re going to need flock cameras in every kitchen now.

Every time you post it you should put it in quotes and end it with --nonentity for a stylist touch.

Do you just post this everywhere?

Maybe even alien civilizations look down with disgust!

If you want men to like your body, yes. Personally, I don’t want that.

You made the implied assertion that people need to like it because it’s natural.

Isn’t that for you to decide? I know gay men who think facial hair is disgusting. Some like it. Regardless, I don’t get to tell my audience what they like, which is what you’re trying to do.

Natural body is a polite way of framing ungroomed. Men nor women like seeing poor hygiene. Some types of poor hygiene are seen as worse than others. Dirty hair? Sorta gross. Body hair? Disgusting.
