Not yet. I did get a comment removed but successfully appealed for saying what citizens do to kings. The appeal was me saying it was in a historical context, of course ;)

I disagree, memes should be mspaint

They didn’t keep the mythological stuff, that got edited out too as needed once it started disagreeing with the State and the Church.

And there’s the toxic form of that sentiment

I’m sorry you equated me saying we want to help our partner feel better with ‘stop whining’.

I think it’s because we feel that we can find the solution to the problem, it will stop the pain that our partner is feeling at the situation.

“It’s human nature” used to describe something horrific like war or rape.

It’s not. Human nature is as when we were children, playing with friends and loving each other.

Militaries have to condition humans to do violence to each other and to follow orders from “superiors”. Half of school is quashing kids’ creativity and making them follow arbitrary rules because “the adults” say so.

I’ve heard horror stories on the programming subreddits of incompetent managers that require their employees to write X new lines of code per week. Those code bases probably could have huge chunks taken off.

Clearly that hasn’t happened here
