It’s because “progressives” are the worst de-growthers and the most ardent NIMBYs at the moment. If it’s anything different than what existed in like 1980, to them it’s very, very bad.
Eviction Notice
If we don’t help Ukraine evict Russia and keep them out, we’re really gonna regret that. Because then we’ll be fighting in Poland and Germany in 2032.
No good. No good at all.
Obj Abu
This is all part of the Gen Z mindset that any attraction or having any relationship expectations at all (especially for men) is equal to objectification and abuse. And it’s pretty anti-human and evil.

You Mean the Trash Gets Trashed?
This seems extremely common for users to do and I’ve wondered about it also over the years. People will store important emails in the “Deleted Items” in Outlook and files in the “Recycle Bin” on Windows and the “Trash” when it used to be called that.
I think because it’s easy to do? Even though it’s dangerous. I assume they are attempting to use these places like an archive. Stupidly, poorly, and with no thought behind it at all, but I guess that’s what is going on. At previous roles I’ve had to make announcements via email and Slack that, “We do not back up the Windows Recycle Bin or Deleted Items in Outlook. Do not store needed or important items in those locations. They will be deleted and will not be available for any recovery or restore.”
It worked better than nothing, but people still did it anyway.
Use AI
To those (idiots) claiming no recruiters and no ATSes use AI, the company I work for absolutely does use AI for filtering submitted applications. Extensively. We do not use any AI interviewers or other horrible abominations like that, but the first and second pass of all resumes and job apps 100% use AI all the way through.
This is the common case now, no matter what anyone on Reddit says.
As Reasonable
Nuclear power haters are so weird and detestable. Like, we find free magic rocks that spew power with 1/1000 the impact1 of fossil fuels and we…just don’t use them.
Because people are a little scared. And we treat this as normal and these people as reasonable.
Verity
It seems like in a lot of life, people want to be conned. They have no interest in the true nor the actual. That’s the case on both the right and the left; this affliction is by no means restricted to one leaning or political party.
The comforting or belief-affirming lie is nearly always preferred to the verifiable and the real.

As much as she is a huge dumbass, she also does not deserve Iryna’s fate. We must also protect the weak and the clueless; I do think it’s noblesse oblige to do so. The truth of the world is just too much for some people.
She’s a good example of someone with “suicidal empathy.”

Well, yes. Expect to see that in a few European countries by 2070 or so. Likely the UK and Germany. Probably others.
Sui Sui
“Suicidal empathy” is such a great and accurate turn of phrase. That’s not why the leaders in question are doing what they are doing, but it’s certainly true that a lot of the followers of those who would destroy the West are beset with that disease.
Truly Unnatural
It really is strange how it’s treated by so much of the left as hateful and anomalous that, broadly speaking, people wish to live near other people like them who speak the same language and hold the same values as they do.
Because, brothers and sisters, it’s the most natural thing in the universe to want that. I’d even say that it is part of human nature. Of course, leftists insist human nature does not exist. They are wrong, of course. If it did not exist then neither would we.
On the other hand, inviting millions of people into your country who want to destroy it and would kill you if they could and will rape any women they have the chance to is what is unnatural. It’s kind of sad that has to be pointed out these days. But it does.
Buffeted
Guys: the girl was in the right here.
His already-sex, already-house partner told him basically what she wanted…which was doable with some effort if you read comments…and he laughed and got a $800 ring from WalMart. Son left the tag, price, and WM sticker ON.

I agree. The woman is the one in the right here. I have no interest in proposals or rings in this sense and neither does my partner, but if my girlfriend said she wanted to go on vacation to a national park as her dream getaway and I took her to play the slots and eat at buffets in Vegas, she’d be right to be angry about it.
It doesn’t sound like this woman is a gold-digger or unreasonable. It more appears she’s not being listened to, which is death for any relationship.
