There are a million good programs and services out there, why use the ones that are completely shit in every way

And also the other half

Death to amerikkka

Why is it not religious and only cultural?

I don’t know, that’s literally my question.

I haven’t yet seen evidence they wouldn’t.

Are you telling me that they have one garment considered modest and all other clothes on earth are immodest?

Edit: also I understand your point but personally I’d fit in just fine in cartoon bear culture, I don’t need pants

I just don’t know if I believe that their culture has exactly one garment considered modest.

That seems like a very disingenuous framing. Khaki pants are no more or less modest than jeans. A rule saying “don’t wear this specific article of clothing” is not a rule against dressing modestly, and I’m certain that there are plenty of modestly dressed children of all sorts of cultures at all these schools.

Sincere question. Obviously France is racist as fuck and instituting (or enforcing, whichever) policies in a racist way. But I’m seeing a lot of people saying that these outfits being banned are not actually religious at all, and are only culturally popular within the cultures of the people being targeted. If that’s the case, why are they still coming to school wearing them? If I were a kid and the government suddenly decided I’m not allowed to wear blue jeans to school, I’d wear khaki pants and then meet up with my friends and say “wtf is the deal with this new policy”

If they’re just clothes and not religious garb, why are kids still wearing them to schools which don’t allow them?

If you can’t behave civilly with another person you have no business swinging a sword at them. You should protest the event hosting them if you feel so strongly about it. You certainly shouldn’t be participating in the event. If you decide to show up and compete against the other person you’re already past all that, and now you need to behave civilly with them.

The point is, sure, there are people who don’t deserve respect. But respect is a necessary prerequisite for this kind of competition. If you can’t respect your opponent you shouldn’t be competing against them. You can’t disrespect them and also compete against them, you pick one or the other.

When did this russian fencer invade any countries or kill anyone

Only one side threw a tantrum over matters of basic courtesy in the competition over nationalism.

In other words, “whataboutism”

Did she think some random fencer was responsible for a war? Nationalists are so fucking insufferable

Because queer is a slur many of us have been called by bigots

This is why I only use machine code

What happens to me now with Firefox and ublock origin is if i leave a video paused in the background for a long time and then it unloads it and then I click it to continue watching so it loads back up, then it plays an ad. I was legit like because I haven’t seen an ad on the internet in years.

Your vlc is probably busted and could use a reinstall. Happened to me once. It still works.

Based. Absolutely true, there is no good use for advertising.

Punished for what?

without sending any of our troops to die

what about all the people from other countries
