He's not saying it's acceptable. He's saying it isn't rape. There are many bad non-rape things.

I would guess, given the demographics of both gamers and rioters, that video game stores are disproportionately looted.

There's probably tons of vets that really want to work with exotic animals on a zoo staff, not so many jobs to go around- this is the usual pattern for such things- the majority of vets being women working on designer dogs is because owners of designer dogs have money to spend.

Since women are equal to men, the notion they're "too re-traumatized" is special pleading.
They are not equal in this sense. Women are in general much weaker and lower in fortitude than men.

Watermelon is an african-american stereotype, but I think in context it means 'commies deep down'.

Uh, wasn't the main protestant church involved the wee frees, who are not headed by the british monarchy?

'Paranoid'? Jean-Luc Melenchon is just openly cheering it on.

Cajun French is generally easier to understand for metropolitan French speakers than Quebecois, because Cajun, like most creole languages, uses no inflections(yes, some inflections are written, but they are in the half of the French word which isn't pronounced). However, almost no one under seventy speaks it. Cajuns are, at this point, basically just Catholic harder-drinking rednecks with better food, and follow the usual patterns of redneck populations elsewhere in the country culturally- a huge wigger underclass occupying itself with drug use and a mostly country dixie upper 2/3 outmigrating to sun belt metroplexes. Acadiana itself is a depressing place with high crime rates, high average ages, horribly intractable poverty, and where substance abuse is the norm.
There is a fairly small elite group that is meaningfully more 'French/Cajun', but it's a tiny elite clique that has largely abdicated its responsibility to govern(in fairness, under substantial pressure to do so).

My assumption is that cattle are what pay the bills, and mostly-horse practice is relatively rare.

'Hot drug fueled gangbang' is unlikely to be something women value sufficiently to distinguish clearly from rape.

Large animal veterinary care is not only gross, it is dangerous, and most of it is not pets, it is livestock.

In the fifties they didn't have any of this. Sex made babies and that was an acceptable price to pay. Housing, transportation, groceries, etc were all more expensive in real terms; but if you wanted to copulate there was a chance you'd have to get married on short notice and have a suspiciously developed premie. And that's the way it was.

These things, in 1950, generally happened in your twenties, and now most people are forced to delay their home and family starting activities into their thirties which reduces the likelihood of having lots of children and thus raising children.
The difference is birth control, not economic reality. If you have kids you will find a way to keep them fed and clothed. There are government programs to help, even. Impoverished teenagers have kids regularly and, yep, those kids don't starve to death, they have diapers, etc...
In the fifties these things generally happened in your twenties because their birth control didn't work very well. Today birth control works very well indeed.

If you were wrong about the determination, yes, just as if you called her a sex worker. On the other hand actual streetwalkers would probably respond with a pricelist.

Again, Galicia is going to be fine demographically- as a region they're a viable contender for the highest fertility rate in Europe- and that's who's going to be ruling over what's left of Ukraine after the war. The rest of ukraine was basically a giant nursing home anyways.

Employers don’t want the things universities teach you, they want the evidence that you can function in a normal white collar office environment.

Isn’t art school typically a non-collège program focused on teaching technical skills?

It’s not really a slur, though. A slur is an unflattering term for a large class of people- for example, ‘bitch’ is a slur for women. Whore is a term for prostitutes, a smaller and mostly voluntary class, and it isn’t usually taken as offensive when applied to actual prostitutes. The offensive part was saying these women, who presumably have never had sex for money, were acting like whores. ‘Sailor’ is not an offensive term, but ‘so and so talks like a sailor’ might be taken that way.

That is not transgressive, and they don’t think it is either.

But many of them are operating within the paradigm that late capitalism turbo-charges human stupidity
No we are not, we are operating under the paradigm that people are not really independent actors and social norms need to be shaped to lead people to make good decisions.

Most normie drunk uncles are probably squishy rather than opposed, and consider that Trump likely doesn’t have a terribly good grasp of what ‘livestream’ means- to him it means it’ll be on TV, which normie drunk uncle thinks is, well, the criminal justice system should be transparent and if you don’t want to watch it you can just change the channel.

TBF, op Ed journalists kinda do have to watch it.
Something about French redditors being upset about videogame stores being terribly affected.
