was thinking the same thing...probably just another "not-racist-fascist-sexist-etc" that is just complaining about "really important things", that are going on, which us tolerant people just can't understand

Fight off your paranoia. You're clearly getting a lot of bad news from sources that want to scare/outrage you. The world has always been a mess. It was no easier for St. Francis to find peace, no easier for the Buddha, than it is for you and me.

Mostly this. The op is a prime example of how scared and lashing out can a solid stream of media make you... It makes me sad.

I loved the way in which you never mentioned my country, Italy, a single time.. that's quite another proof of the fact that we have never mattered and we will never matter sht in foreign policy in general xD
We always think inside we are such a big nation, while no one gives a fck about what happens here ahahah and that's funny too..
But the positive thing is that since no one cares about us, we are more free than we think and most of those things you listed aren't frowned upon or aren't seen as problems or simply no one gives a f*ck if we think them or not or if we do them or not..
I don't think you'll get banned, if you wanted to express your feelings without offending anyone it's ok! Probably the thread will be closed though xD
Consider coming to Italy. Relocate to Sudtirol, you won't even need to learn the language and you'll be more free and happy =P

Yeah come in Italy and you'll see the human representation of the word hypocrisy. 😀

we can't deny we have every day something to laugh about xD
come on, in every other country there's always something important happening.. here we live like on a donkey island where everything can happen every day and we're full of each and every single human cathegory one can imagine of!
no one gives a sht about what happens here, we think we count something but not even in Europe someone gives a fck about Italy, so that we can keep on going with our awesome, huge Court of Miracles!

It would be much more exhilarating if I was not Italian myself. I can do only a sardonic smile in this condition.

People pretending there's more than two genders.
Do you not see the conflict inherent in those statements? And you seem to be very hung up on the idea of there being more than two genders - so much so that you listed it twice. Why is that?
As far as refugees being a security risk, in the US 99% of terrorist activity has been committed by US citizens. So, statistically, accepting refugees would have a negligible effect on security. In fact, refugees and immigrants in the US are among the most law abiding.

yeah, it's one of the first thing I noticed..
these years, this "genre" thing is really getting louder..
and it's one of the topic that interests me the least.. not only 'cos I'm for an American freedom of speech model but also 'cos.. I don't really get the reason why it should be important to make debates and such about these genres.. who cares? what will change?
so yeah I don't care about the issue but I also think there are valid reasons not to care about it..
Keenzor's answer below basically wrote better what I was thinking xD

Well talking about gaming, consider language used in your favourite games and now think about adapting that to all possible genders representation, the amount of work would be massive only to not ofend people because of their gender.
Lets face it there should be one gender like in amebas world, easy life 😌🤤.

well, I'd never propose such things! XD Oh I was just wondering about the Jenova issue in final fantasy 7.. the translation problems on how to call her or it or whatever, from japanese to english and then to the other european languages.. xD
it's great to have males and females, it's great to have quina quen and many other characters too =P I'm male and I want my male characters to be referred as males, if they are transgender or whatever else, let them change xD but all the existing games must stay as they are, and they have never offended anyone =P

In fact, refugees and immigrants who have immigrated to the US legally are among the most law-abiding.
Fixed it for you.

Haha, well said. :)
Although I heard something very interesting recently with regard to immigrants and how the words we use influence how we feel about them. For example the term illegal immigrants gives us a negative view of them because of the word "illegal", but that is only applied to immigrants. People who speed in their cars or don't wear seat-belts aren't called illegal drivers. People who don't pay their taxes aren't called illegal taxpayers. These terms are chosen with precision to effect our opinions without us even really realizing it or stopping to think about it.

Car drivers without the proper license are driving illegally or illegal drivers in that case. People who don't pay taxes are tax evaders/dodgers. Taxes are forced on you like a responsibility. You don't pay money or hold a license to be a refugee, but you still have to abide by laws of the land.
The term "invader" is more descriptive than illegal alien/immigrant. People illegally entering your house is called home invasion, not illegal immigration. You can also be considered a biological hazard if you have communicable diseases, like the current cases of Polio currently spreading in the US, and cross another country illegally. People could die just being around you. Entirely the fault of that individual.

I think we can all agree that "undocumented worker" and "illegal immigrant" are both inaccurate and politically motivated. A more accurate term might be "unauthorized foreign national," but that doesn't incite as much passion as the others.

I can understand how one would feel threatened by the escalation of the situation between Russia and Ukraine. I can also understand how the influx of refugees into Europe can be worrying for some people as it was not exactly a smooth sailing so far (nor the apocalypse some are trying to paint it as) but I really wonder how one can feel threatened by transgender people, the fact that some people want to identify as other gender or women asking for equal rights (and yes, there definitely are way too extreme feminists that tend to take things too far, though I don't recall a case of any of those taking up arms and blowing someone up).
Really dunno why would you mix all of those things together and if you really feel like the world is coming to an end you might want to try talking this out with a professional.
Comment has been collapsed.
well, for the genre issue you wrote way better than me what I was answering and writing two replies above.. I really am not interest in the gender topic, not only 'cos I feel no interest at all about it and that could be ok.. but also because I feel it's really something that poses NO threat at all.. so since I'm not involved, why should I care? and most of all.. why should I worry or even feel a threat?!

Maybe it is time to unplug your internet and TV cables, and get out into the real world and meet some people and see how the real world actually works instead of being spoon fed your information from bias sources trying to control you.
Or, you can just post anonymously online because that is sooo edgy.

Worth a watch on that note (and as spoiler free as possble). Stars Ron Perlman, released 1981 I believe.

Merkel inviting thousands of refugees into Germany - which are NOT BEING SEARCHED, leading to terrorist attacks.
If the relevant part of the sentence is the one with capitals - why not only writing the second part? Because you disagree with the first part as well? Meanwhile, regarding several other countries you didn't add it, because "refugees are a security hazard" - in general? How could searching them help then anyways?
Everyone who doesn't fully agree with the leftist media is a racist.
If all media was "leftist", you couldn't parrot well-known (far) right media attitudes.

Assuming that you mean mainstream media by this acronym, I don't understand why this should be anti-semitic, since the term mainstream only indicates that something is popular/used by masses and therefore doesn't have any relation to being semitic or anti-semitic.
Also I would never disagree with any media per se, but with their content on a case by case basis. If I don't like any specific media or think that it isn't accurate, I just don't consume it anymore.

Sincerely, I read that commentary as anti-semitic itself, 'cause the only thing that makes it be the least bit logical is some kind of "THE JEWZ CONTROL THE MEDIA OMG" bull.

Majority of above is nothing compared to people that seriously believe that earth is flat or to those with vaccines being the cause for autism. Idiocracy is reaching so high levels that soon enough people will once again prefer to visit local shamans rather than a hospital.
Ukraine-Russia war is very sad though, I wish people could learn something after those 3000 years if not more and stop making people die for stupid reasons.

The earth it's a globe, not doubt about it, but the universe itself could be a 3D reality from a 2D proyection like a videogame its a recreation of its source code.
People don't claim vaccines causes autism, that's disinformation about it and sheep thinking, some people claim that since the 50's and 60's they started adding aditives in the vaccines that causes autism.
Don't took me for a flat earther or antivaccine, but not everything it's black or white.

I think the "safe space" concept is truly bizarre (mostly because I expect such places would be targets for the kinds of people they're meant to separate participants from). And I do think the concept of racism is being heavily misrepresented these days.
But in general I think its best not to get too wrapped up in what you don't like about the world, and try to find and focus on what you do like. Life is too short to go through it angry about things you have limited control over. While as everyone has a voice and can potentially influence changes that make the world a better place (though this is quite subjective), you shouldn't focus so much on what you'd like changed that you forget to enjoy life and the world for what it is.
