Stating a citable fact is “defending” a position? Hunh. That’s quite the world you live in, citizen. Is it just an asteroid with a rose under glass, though?
That analogy only works if the clothing factory/farm first spent decades oppressing & exploiting its staff & neighbors, then began bombing the fuck out of their babies, elderly, hospitals, schools, parks, residential blocks, etc., in efforts to nonchalantly complete a “nothing to see here” genocide… They’re at war. Stop fucking about.
That’s like asking if the upcoming pageant queen’ll be judged by her oral skills. Sure, but is anyone ever going to simply stop the system of rape & other traumas in the first place? Who knows.
Øπ3ŕ@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Tell me of a time when you seriously misread social cues and said something stupid/slip of the tongue.English17·29 days agoYears ago, in college, I was heading to a dinner with my GF’s grandparents, and her father was driving w/ her sitting passenger and myself in the back seat.
The trip was ~1hr each way, and after 20-30 mins of their front-seat banter, it felt like a great chance to chime in (had spent a total of a few hours around her dad, felt it was a great opportunity to engage & build that relationship), so I began focusing on context cues to gauge my conversational entry point & topic — ya know, like ya do.
Mind you, the stereo was on (weighted to the rear speakers, as usual) and the road noise certainly played a part (windows up, thankfully) but I was able to catch a few clues and decided on opening with a tangential quip, so I loaded a few solutions and fired from the hip.
“Did someone say ‘Florida’? That mythical place that old, white folks go to die?”
/prolonged, increasingly discomfiting silence
/GF’s father quickly changes the subject w/o mention of Florida topic nor implying my inclusion
Days later, GF asks “WTF were you thinking? The whole dinner was for my dad to discuss their decision to move to Florida.”, and certain details of the entire dinner & its conversational scenes began to make sense. 🫣🤦🏼♂️
When the fetch quest is the game.
