I don't care how much you dislike them. They have as much right to talk as you do.

As long as it isn’t a direct threat on a person, a legitimate cause for concern, it should be allowed.

Because the moment you start putting restrictions for someone on something, it applies to everyone, it can and will be abused, and possibly pushed even farther.

1.) The hunting family DID NOT force the woman to eat meat. They didn’t. She tried to force them into her vegan lifestyle but they didn’t try to force her into theirs. So stop trying to act like they’re the bad guy.

2.) Hunting is 100% more ethical than the meat industry. It’s sustainable, it exists solely on the ‘kill only what you need’ axis. That’s the entire reason these people switched to hunting their own food. They hate the meat industry.

Both moms are stay-at-home moms while the dads do the work. The children of both don’t really do any chores past small stuff. So IN THEORY the families are pretty similar.

Hunter mom tried her best to create a vegan diet despite lack of knowledge. She went with the daughter to all the protests that vegan mom usually goes and while she found the stuff really weird, she kept that mainly from the child. She did all the chores in the house and pampered the dad a bit when he came back from his 15-hour job. She never belittled them for their lifestyle, only was honest about finding it confusing (like that the humans don’t cook, but they cook for the cat [WHO HAS TO LIVE VEGAN. THEY ARE ONE OF THOSE NUTJOBS THAT KEEP A CARNIVOROUS ANIMAL AND FORCE IT TO BE VEGAN]).

Vegan mom did chores on like the first 1 or 2 days as asked and then tried to skip them or ditch them on the son (she doesn’t do any chores in her own family, the dad has to do everything on top of his job). She tries to trick them multiple times into not eating meat out of pure selfishness and arrogance, she wastes food too (she threw away perfectly good food like chilli con carne and then claimed it was cause it looked bad). She stands outside in the garden x minutes/hours a day cause she believes that the sun will fill her with vitamins (you are so close yet so far from understanding sunlight and vitamin production) and says she hopes to one day be able to live on a sun diet. Even though hunter family never forces or even encourages her to eat any meat, she cries every time they do. Hunter family seemed willing to reduce their meat consumption initially, but dad gets very quickly pissed off about vegan mom’s wastefulness, lazyness and her general attitude.

Also, the vegan family has leather furniture but seem to not realize that animals die for that, so I am not fully certain they understand what kills animals and what doesn’t in regards to animal products…

But in vegetales, they were actually all Christian and it’s just a kids shoooow.

There are no implications, and most CHILDREN aren’t going to point and go JEW VOICE JEW VOICE! JEWS MUST LOVE SLAVERY! like you are.

Demand some quality, have some pride.

Also, you know, sometimes people other than your average cis-straight white dude can offer some insights that the cis-straight white dudes don’t understand or see. For example, the movie Little Women came out recently and while the universal consensus was that the film was great, a lot of the men didn’t understand some of the underlying themes  and as such gave the film a lower rating. Watching women criticizing the film and offering their perspectives helps bridge that gap of misunderstanding and can help elevate your appreciation of the film.

Straight white men make up a pretty large portion of populations in the majority of English speaking places. That being said, a Spaniard will not have the same perspective as a German. A liberal man will not have the same perspective as a conservative. A male feminist will not have the same opinion as a non feminist. While men may not have some perspective into some movies (like your example) it does not render their opinion useless or invalid or wrong, just a different view and perspective.

You’re viewing white men as a similar to same opinions group, which is racist and an issue in itself. In fact your views seem to be in a misguided, somewhat racist/sexist/phobic place, because you explicitly stated you don’t even care if it’s the same opinion, as long as it isn’t from a white man. As long as you aren’t hearing it from (race) (sex) because you’re tired of them, there’s too many! Get them out of here!

You forget critics and reviews, especially more popular modes of consuming it (like YouTube!) aren’t restricted by race or sex. Anyone can make a review, they simply have to choose to do so. But, you may have noticed, on YouTube’s in countries with majority White people, you’re going to have majority white content creators, because when you have a bag full of blue skittles with a few yellow here and there, when you pull out a handful, probs gonna get 99% blue.

Getting a variety of critisicms and reviews on content is fantastic! But it’s important to remember that race/sex/orientation, unless it specifically applies to that film, isn’t variety, backgrounds and life experiences are. Can that be influenced by race/sex/orientation? Absolutely! But that just isn’t all there is.

Even in the comic/gaming sphere, cis white men still tend to have vastly different opinions and tend to form their opinions based on different considerations and factors.

Look at any 2 game reviews of the same games - you might have overarching opinions such as "this aspect was poorly done" or "this was an excellent aspect" but the way they interpret and experience the games are vastly different and they explain why it is so.

Hell, as an example: the reviews for the game YIIK (pronounced Y2K) are all mostly of the same general opinion that it's a shit game, but every review will have insight into different aspects of the game and will expand on why they think those aspects contribute to the overall shittiness of the game. Some reviews even had vastly different opinions on the exact same scenes or mechanics.

Same rule applies to comic reviews. Same thing applies to movie reviews.

And this is just in the casual sphere of the fans where we find this variety.

I'm positive people in the industry also have different opinions, but that others are unwilling to hear them out or to understand the reasoning behind these opinions due to stereotyping them as having "worthless opinions bc cis white male".

Different perspectives are important, but acting like all the members of one group for any industry will have the exact same opinions?? Fucking whack.

In fact trying to emotionally manipulate a partner to have sex with you when they clearly don’t want to IS abuse. It’s called coercion.

I said that withholding intimacy and affection as a punishment is a psychologically recognized form of abuse - same as coercion is. You guys are not only putting words into my mouth, but you’re also ignoring the context and the sources I gave because for some reason you think you know more than the field of psychology which by the way you do not. 

Someone going “you talked to another man when you know you’re not allowed to do that so I’m giving you the cold shoulder and not giving you any attention or showing you any affection” is indeed an abuse tactic used as a punishment, as a way to further control their victim, et cetera.

Does that mean the person withholding sex from their partner needs to have sex with their partner? No, of course not. It’s just recognized as a form of emotional abuse if it happens repeatedly as a punishment. 

Until the 1980’s it was SCIENTIFICALLY ACCEPTED that women had smaller and inferior brains. We now know that was false and fueled by institutionalised misogyny. Which is happening here.

As for psychology, I fucking studied it twice at college, along with sociology. You don’t get to run around and act like an authority on it when you clearly don’t understand scientific history and how it axis with misogyny.

Also I find it incredibly fucking rich I’m clearly being talked down to about my lack of life experience when I’m fucking 22 and I’m judging you’re no older than 15. You’re just a know it all jumped up teenager trying to get a reaction by sharing your edgy opinions.

I can see why you needed to study it twice since you missed a shit ton and clearly even twice isn’t enough to get it to stick. Ouch. Also, you do realize that withholding sex as punishment isn’t just done by women to men? I think you’re getting this confused with actual forms of misogyny and spousal rape. There’s a different between what I’m talking about and that. In fact, this form of emotional abuse can be done to any one - a man to a woman, a woman to a man, a man to a man, a woman to a woman. Same as any other abuse tactic.

I won’t play your game, although I certainly could. Instead maybe if I quote my friend who put this in different words than I did, maybe you’ll finally understand what’s being talked about here because whatever you’re hearing isn’t it.

Ignoring the fact that withholding sex can be a manipulation tactic sends off huge red flags to me, especially since it’s just a different version of withholding desires/necessities, and are used to alter behavior

Refusing to fuck your partner because you didn’t like something they do/think, until they “correct” that behavior to fit your own views? Very much an abuse tactic. Like I can understand not wanting to have sex, but there is a huge difference between that, and “you get sex when you learn to behave" 

Dog behave - dog get treat. Dog don’t behave - dog get no treat. It’s very similar to me at the most base lever at least.    

I have no issue with using reward and withhold tactics to train dogs and to teach children good behavior. I implement it in as many of my pracs lessons as I can. But there’s a difference between wanting to improve good behavior /discourage bad behavior, and forcing your own views onto someone through abuse tactics. They’re also overlooking that this tactic never goes alone. It’s usually part of an already toxic relationship 

Not wanting sex isn’t the same as deliberately withholding it from someone with the goal to have them reform their behavior to suit your own abusive views/needs

No one owes anyone sex for any reason, but it’s also healthy to look into the motives behind certain behaviors. Someone in an abusive relationship might not be able to recognize this as an abuse tactic, which is extremely bad

And I mean, as example - someone can give someone candy or a gift, and you can argue that it’s ‘good’ or kind or whatever of them, but if no one knows that their motives behind it are sinister (luring a child for example, attempting to gain trust from someone in order to manipulate them and such), there’s a huge danger in viewing actions as separate from the person and their intentions.

anyway, i also study psychology, and uh. yeah. withholding affection is abuse. we went over this in developmental psychology in the context of parent-child bonding. this can, logically, also be applied to relationships, as similar mechanisms of bonding are used, albeit on a less instinctual basis.

if that’s not enough, have this:

Point number 5 of emotional abuse is, guess what…

Going beyond that, we also covered operant conditioning/behaviorism (Skinner, 1938) several times, and the ethical ramifications of it. Conditioning an adult human like you would a rat or dog is just strange and bad, is what we decided in discussion. Withholding something IS A MECHANISM of operant conditioning. 

It’s in German because I study in Germany, but hey, here’s a source from one of my professor’s lectures. C+ is a positive consequence, C- is a negative one. Positive reinforcement is giving positive stimulus, negative reinforcement is taking away a negative stimulus (think: torture, you get tortured and if you talk they stop), you can give a negative consequence, or withhold a positive one.
