huh, I didn't know that "asserting unconfirmed information and speculation as irrefutable facts" was bannable on REEE...

This always got me.  Does everyone have to insert "probably" and "likely" into every sentence?

What about excelsiorlef in the naked man thread saying he had mental problems?

He might have quite possibly ....

Guess the guy should have just been an incel then folks would be rallying with sympathy and empathizing with him being mentally ill.

Mental illness discussions are fascinating when it's white men who actually commit horrific atrocities. Mental illness is a way to downplay what he did and ask for empathy with him.

When it's black men it's used as an another excuse for why ending his life was completely justified

Have you any evidence he was having mental health issues? You’ve brought it up multiple times in the thread but I can’t find evidence for that.

It seems to be far more likely he was on drugs which would explain how he was able to withstand the intense physical affects of being tased, and still manage to charge at somebody, whereas mental health issues don’t really explain how he could just ‘ignore’ being tased.

The mental gymnastics they are going through to defend that guy's harassment while still trying to maintain the moral high ground is hilarious. And now they are dancing around the fact that the guy had racial slurs thrown his way, one of the worse crimes you can do as far as Reee is concerned.

But that all good because he wore a MAGA hat. Fuck that n-word, as far as they are concerned. And they still think they are morally superior.

Again, its not real progressiveness. That was obvious by how they treat feminism.

"If you're a woman and don't abide by the rules of what we bastardized feminism to be, you're an outcast!"

Ex, women who are sex workers, stay at home moms.

Just remember how they celebrated that the F1 gridgirls lost their jobs

Exactly.

Equality to me, is allowing people who have a history of being subjugated, to be free to make their own decisions. This, knowing what they might do with this freedom won't always fall in line with your grand vision for what they'll do with your precious gift.

What they're doing is the same as someone buying a date a meal and expecting sex in return, only to get aggravated when they're not obliged.

Its what has always bothered me about this new progressive movement. Freedom isn't the end goal. Its control.

God this is so on point.

[Averon]

They fucking defended the harassment of a porn star that ended in her suicide because she didn't want to have sex with a gay performer. Not because he was gay, but because of the entirely reasonable concern about HIV infection due to the high risk nature of his job. These people aren't nearly as virtuous as they claim to be.

Their entire spiel about women controlling their bodies apparently stops if she don't want to have sex with certain demographics.

So she triggered them twice because in case you didn't know there's also HIV "activism" that is currently succeeding in a couple of states at decriminalizing the deliberate spread of HIV.

How is it not virtuous to rejoice in the suicide of a woman who was cyberbullied for being angry that her booking agent attempted to knowingly decieve her into giving up her body autonomy?

I have no idea why anybody would think is good idea (outside of schadenfreude) to leave that threat open. Is Reee as it worst.

Lets face it though, overwhelmingly the spread of HIV is accidental, no-one's out there thinking "thank god it's not a felony to infect people with HIV now, that was the only thing stopping me". If they have evidence destigmatizing HIV will actually reduce the spread, then I guess I have to support it.

If I had to choose between not having HIV or being comforted by the knowledge that the person who gave me HIV got 5 or 8 years, i'd choose not having HIV.

When you wear articles of clothing that broadcast hate, don't be surprised when you are judged accordingly. Wearing that filth in a family restaurant is especially gross.

people of color aren't always on the same page. especially if they have had different experiences, and particularly if they have lived an entire life of being "one of the good ones".

don't let it psyche you out though, you learn to roll with it. even when they decide they want to play as the diplomatic contrarian thinker and defender of rational thought, on too little information.

Well, that is genuinely toxic way of see stuff, specially for how that view affect the PoC outside of the anglo nations.

Afaik the laws are about the fucking scumbags that have been tested positive and still have sex without condom not about people who accidentally spread HIV. The vast majority of deaths are from disease or natural death, based on your logic we shouldn't criminalize murder because of it? And btw the spread increased iirc after the laws were repealed, it was San Fransisco I think. How destigmatizing HIV would even reduce the spread, I don't get it.

Right - they also try to push promiscuous people that are otherwise negligent with their medical checkups to be more responsible and less solipsistic.

Still a crime, the only difference is they changed it from felony to misdemeanor. It was only ever judged a more serious crime because of the intense fear surrounding HIV. Even giving someone ebola is only misdemeanor.

Is not about being nice, is just not being a horrible prick by ignoring basic decency and give your political enemies more ammo. Yes, you are never going to convince Trumpkins but normal people are going to see news like this and their normal reaction is going to be “what the fuck is happening in this country?”

[agrajag]

One time the other chef at the restaurant I worked at invited his childhood friend to bring his family for dinner. We had an open kitchen so you could see every guest in the dining room. The friends dad came wearing a MAGA hat. You know, in a typical embarassing dad fashion. Like, who goes to a nice restaurant (mind you, this isn't Starbucks or Cheesecake Factory) wearing a MAGA hat? My coworker was super embarrassed and of course all the employees were chit chatting and laughing at the guy amongst themselves, like " why is this dude wearing a MAGA hat in South Beach, what the hell is wrong with him etc." But it didn't even cross anybody's mind to hassle him about it. Why harass your guest, who has not done anything wrong other than offend your delicate sensibilities with his attire choices? That's the epitomy of unprofessionalism. I get it, the hat represents an ideology you oppose, but you're not there to judge the patrons' beliefs. Not only that, but you ruin the establishment's reputation by confronting guests like that, that's not good business. I guess some people don't think like that.

[nachobro]

wow boycotting the cheesecake factory, such a huge effort to deprive yourself of subpar microwaved food

[I'm a Puppy!]

I too will sign up for this boycott of a place I never go to.

[nachobro]

actually now that i think about it...of all the shitty chain restaurants where you WOULD wear a MAGA hat, cheesecake factory fits the bill.

[agrajag]

Well the guy could be lying; as someone pointed out the employees were suspended not fired while Cheesecake Factory sorts the story out.

But real story or not, the people cheering the action on or even going as far as saying they'll boycott Cheescake Factory over the potentially fired employees are treating it as real.

It all sounds pretty far fetched to me.

The guy could be lying, sure. But people are defending harassing someone for wearing a MAGA hat period.

My favorite cheesecake factory experience:

Family decides to go there for actual food. Sister orders their "spicy" thai dish. It's not spicy. So she asks if they can make it spiceir. It comes back with more sauce on it. It's still not spicy. She asks if they can just toss some cayenne in it. The waiter tells her, "we don't actually have the ingredients to the dish. We just have more packages of its sauce."

I would be more okay with Cheesecake factory's total sham of cooking if they didn't jack the prices up. Don't charge 20 bucks for a Trader Joe's prepackaged meal.

What I've learned about chain places is the best bet is always ordering the hamburgers. Ceasar salad and hamburgers are hard for your average chain place to fuck up.

[Jenkem]

of course you bore shitheads are taking the side of alt right gamergater nazi filth. would you be comfortable walking into a panera bread and seeing someone in full KKK regalia? that is what it is like to see someone in a MAGA hat.. it's unfortunate there are no laws against such disgusting public displays, so the best thing to do is to just walk around and leave. I feel bad for the employees of panera bread having to deal with such bullying, but as a human being I want to leave that place as fast as possible to avoid any potential lynchings. this is why I order all of my food from uber eats.

[Great Rumbler]

I only ate at Cheesecake Factory once [about 10 years ago]. I don't remember anything about the quality of the food, but I do remember that for just 6 of us it ended up costing nearly $120.
