A prominent men’s rights activist is now saying it’s gay for guys to like women’s bums.
I am the very gayest of the gay, then.

Suppression
I wonder if Mozilla is aware of just how many people now despise the organization and how much that matters? Probably not, because people like me get banned from discussing it.
I’ll be glad when they are fucking dead as an org and so will many others. At this point, they are just in the way and not doing any good.
Matches
To all those supporting plant-based diets and a reduction in meat consumption for health and climate, I thank you. In the last 6 months, the personal nutrition consulting side of my business and practice is booming.

Most people aren’t working out as hard as I am, but the thread above matches my experience. Consuming animal protein really makes my muscle soreness go away very quickly. Plant proteins and protein shakes help, but not nearly as quickly or as much. Also, I have a lot more energy when I eat meat vs. anything else even apart from soreness and recovery. If I were forced to a plant-based diet, even heavy on protein, I think I could work out 1-2 times a week vs. the 6-7 times a week I currently do.
Also, I noticed this as well:
EAT limits starchy veggies like potatoes & cassava flour (high glycemic index). Neither grain- and legume flours, nor high glycemic index fruits are restricted, allowing processed food companies to sell pasta, cereal & juices. No wonder that Barilla, Kellogg’s & Dole support EAT.

I'm an old fashioned liberal lefty, champagne socialist type of guy. A pro-equality, opportunity-for-all, welfare state snowflake. But, if I ever defend freedom of speech on here, I'm suddenly an alt right nazi. How did that happen? pic.twitter.com/9pYrTJlQHK

I wonder that myself. I’m even more to the left than Gervais in most areas, but believing in any sort of free speech these days to many people means you are goose-stepping and “sieg heiling” ceaselessly.
I can’t say I understand it or care for it.
RIP Caring
Those under 30 know they are at real risk of death and far worse lives due to climate change, so they have great incentive to do something about it.
What’s puzzling to me is why their parents and grandparents don’t seem to give a rip.

Why did it take a month of shutdown to understand that 800,000 federal workers are our neighbors?
Because most people are wicked dumb, and even “smart” people aren’t really that smart.
Ok, that’s glib but not inaccurate. Better to say perhaps that systems thinking is highly discouraged, not taught, and most people are utterly atrocious at it. Or, in other words, wicked dumb.
Tolerance
My daughter is getting married in July.
I’m not interested in mass immigration from cultures which have a problem with this. pic.twitter.com/FgofF6MJTS

This is the progressive dilemma, isn’t it? It’s been discussed for hundreds of years in philosophy, going all the way back to Locke’s “A Letter Concerning Toleration” in 1689. What should our tolerance for intolerance be? To the standard, thoughtless progressive who advocates open borders, we should meekly accept any and all comers, no matter their culture or beliefs (and beliefs of course lead to actions), caring nothing for what effect it’ll have on anyone currently living in a place.
This tolerance for intolerance is obviously not something I support. It’s not as much a problem in the US as it is for Europe. Not by a long shot. But it’s something we have to be wary of because the progressives tend to cultural destruction in this direction as a form of virtue signaling.
