    Growing out a wizard beard and standing in the fruit section of a grocery store telling people how different fruits are the product of imperialism in various nations

    The context for this is that there is an inside joke among transphobes that if you're transphobic on twitter you'll get told off by someone with a beard. Then they started just calling anyone disagreeing beard. Now they've convinced themselves that everyone with a beard is against them.

    So they've invented their own enemy out of nothing, and they're currently crying about their invented enemy owning them.

    Wtf is a beardsplainer?

    Just have a beard if you want one, you fucking baby. Why do these people care so much about looking cool?

      It's not about looking cool, it's about accidentally identifying oneself as a member of The Other.

      Would you show up to class in a blue jean vest and a trucker hat? Yeah, like that.

      When certain people remind me of someone I hate they lose the right to their opinion. There are tons of conservative beardos out there too

      “Excuse me sir but your massive beard is taking up a whole extra seat and I have nowhere to sit!”

    Since this is not posted in the dunk tank, it can only be interpreted as a vindication of my views. Thank you.

    Imagine writing that and thinking you're in any position to call somebody else insufferable.

    I for one think JK Rowling is right, there is nothing weird about an adult man riding around on a tricycle, no matter what the wokists say!

    Can it really be mere coincidence that as the popularity of the beard waned over the course of the 20th century, so too did our country’s global influence? When Delilah had Samson’s hair chopped off, it sapped him of his strength. Shearing off our magnificent Victorian beards, it seems to me, had the exact same effect on Britain.

    That does in fact sound like a coincidence

    "Liberal bad. Conservative good. Popular opinion good. Give money."

    The absolute state of journalism. Lying media at its finest.
