    There’s nothing wrong with being an adult man who watches superhero movies, or plays video games, or watches Netflix, or browses reddit

    I don't admire passive consumers of pop culture.

      I was getting that vibe, but didn't no how to look it up. Just kind of throwing out things like "don't we all agree that people having kids is bad?", or "why would people want to talk about CTH and have irreverent political discourse?" seems kinda weird.

        The tell for me is always when a brand new account has really deep and developed opinions about the state of this website. Like damn you've only been here an hour and you already have a diatribe ready about which emojis are too stigmatizing? Lmao at least cool it for a little

    Soy milk is fucking good. I hate how almond milk has replaced it as the default non-dairy milk. I can't even find chocolate soy milk anymore, and most stores don't have store brand soy milk like they do for almond and dairy, so I have to shell out the extra buck for namebrand Silk, and I have to go with almond or oat if I want chocolate.

    It's so funny that so many people believe that soy of all things feminizes men when at least 20% of all humans consume soy regularly as a staple part of their diet. You'd think there would be literally any evidence of this phenomenon spanning back thousands of years lmao

    I cant say I don't feel you on this, maybe to say that these meme get created by people who are insecure and have to project these into imagined other soy person to disavow it, I personally like seeing these meme as I think they can be recontextualized into something more liberating like I think has been done on this site? This is just my gut feeling but yeah I get that soy Wojack isn't good for men or other non gender conforming people in its original context.

        So? "gay" meant dumb/lame/weak or whatever negative association you wanted it to throughout the late 90's to 2010ish, the original intent and association still remains even if the supposed "meaning" changes

    I'm not sure I quite agree with wojaks being inherently reactionary, but I do think that there's a ton of ableism that's baked into quite a few popular memes that came from reactionary spaces. Like there's an interest policing angle to some of the stuff about how it's bad supposedly that someone's intensely into a particular bit of media, the manchild archetype is very much built on autistic stereotypes and mocks them essentially for being autsitic, etc. Shit like Redditor is usually more clear that people are mocking people for being massive libs or chuds with beliefs they don't really expect real pushback on, but even that can sometimes be used to interest police over someone that uses it to talk about a special interest.

    But the broader criticisms of superhero movies, video games, etc aren't really directed at any marginalized group, those are things that are mainstream as fuck. Everyone plays video games and watches superhero movies, often on Netflix. Jokes at the expense of consumerism are going to be p standard leftist humor.
