Big Bang Theory is a terrible show.

It's not because of "nerd blackface." Fuck you :reddit-logo: for making that the presumed reason for anyone to dislike that show.

It's a misogynistic, cryptoracist, ignorantly ableist (setting back public understanding of autism by years) and lowkey homophobic unfunny mess that is written like the script was printed on plastic sheets made from melted down Funko Pops. Also, the :my-hero: worship is insufferable.

    There's a legitimate cause in there, to stop the continuation of a medically unnecessary procedure that takes something away from babies without their say-so because of some lingering festering :grillman: pretenses of normalcy.

    :frothingfash: damage that cause by invading any possible online space, especially if the topic is FGM or the like, and say "WHAT ABOUT MUH PEEN?"

    Some damage it further by being as graphic and alienating as they can about people that did involuntarily get circumsized as babies, trying to "blackpill" them and make them into additional chud recruits in a way that doesn't actually help but certainly is a rush of hate and vengeance against targets that had nothing to do with that.

      Ya they're definitely recruiting in anti circ forums. And much of it is "feminism supports/ignores circumcision" or "women are mostly responsible for circumcision", which is all provably wrong. They're disengenuous af.

        The circumcision fad that started roughly a century ago was an anti-masturbation quasi-religious fantaticism funded and pushed by rich assholes like Kellogg. His ideology lines up quite nicely with the NoFap crowd for the most part, if they ever noticed.
