If people could stop centering their entire lives around a mediocre piece of entertainment and letting themselves being spoonfed art in the form of capitalist “Franchises”, maybe people like Rowling wouldnt get this much undeserved attention.

Nicht nur Problematisch dass das suggeriert, Kindererziehung wäre Frauensache, auch dass es überhaupt normalisiert dass man gleichzeitig Familie haben und vollzeit arbeiten sollte. Stattdessen müsste das Ziel sein, für Eltern die Arbeitslast so zu reduzieren, dass sie bequem auf ihre Kinder aufpassen können, ohne dass dadurch Karrierenachteile entstehen. Früher war es auch möglich, dass ein Mann mit seinem Verdienst die Familie ernährt, dann sollten heute Mann und Frau das mit halbem Einkommen schaffen.
They should be investing their energy into finding a way to make better use of these small logs instead of wasting them like this.

“Geißeln” ist ein bemerkenswertes Framing… die Klimaschützer als weltfremde Mönche, die der Normalbevölkerung ihren realitätsfernen Lebensstil durch Züchtigung aufzwingen wollen
We should stop seeing it as an “old people thing” to be critical of a specific technology or innovation. After all, nowadays it’s often the boomers who are the least aware of the negative aspects of things like social media or “the cloud”, simply because they don’t understand it, and just assume it’s how the world works nowadays.
The guy is German, and the German language traditionally uses generic masculine pronouns, although that has become a big political issue in the past years. Some new gender-neutral forms have developed, but some of them have even been banned by the “center”-right-wing clowns in two state governments, and it’s all a bit of a mess. The guy probably thoght “they” in English is a similarly experimental concept, and while it’s still dumb and he should just try to be as inclusive as possible, it’s probably not a matter of him purposefully excluding women from the documentation.
Schon wahr. Die Vorstellung find ich trotzdem merkwürdig.
Frage mich gerade echt: wenn die Geste verboten würde, dürften dann die Kinder auch keinen Schweigefuchs mehr machen? Kommt dann irgendwann ein Lehrer und erklärt denen “euer Schweigefuchs wurde leider von Türkischen Rechtsextremen appropriiert und ist deswegen jetzt eine Straftat?”
The best part is the guy telling his viewers to not be creative with their music but make exactly what people want to hear. Really shows how people are just bullshitting art, and the bullshit generator is exactly the right tool for that.
Are people here reading the whole mastodon thread?
it is 200% okay to bully them into submission
Sounds rather toxic, and also counterproductive.
Well, German has almost as many vowels as English and we’re doing just fine I think. On the other hand, French orthography is similarly fucked up although it’s a direct descendent of Latin and they don’t even have any weird sounds they can’t write concisely. So I think its just a matter of trying.
The english language badly needs an orthography reform
I read it like russia sabotaged the PMs own arson attempt
Garbage take. Just fill it into a glass jar at home. Nobody cares about the 0.03g of flour lost leaking out during transport.
Is there any science behind this or is it just some guy pulling stuff out of his ass that he feels people can relate to?
“Arbitrary scale at which water freezes” is such an annoyingly dumb representation of the Fahrenheit scale, that even as a European I feel the need to defend it.
In dem Fall meinen sie wahrscheinlich Inhaltliche und nicht sprachliche Zensur. Ich könnte mir schon vorstellen, dass auch sonst Werbetafeln abgelehnt werden, die als zu geschmacklos bewertet wurden. Das ist doch im Grunde das gleiche wie bei YouTube und Tiktok, wo alles demonetarisiert wird, wenn man nicht “unalive” statt “dead” sagt.
Meine Abneigung gegen die Ströer-Werbetafeln ist eigentlich ein bisschen größer als die gegen das Plakat. Ich hab nur auch keine Lust auf getarnte Wahlwerbung in Form von Ragebait.
Maybe I wasn’t clear, I don’t think calling out Rowling’s shitty views is part of the problem. What I was trying to point at was that fandoms are just a means of marketing and people are too uncritical about how capitalism interferes with art. People are getting steered towards “investing” time and attention into something that isn’t really worth it, and the author, unable to follow up the success because she really isn’t that talented, instead clamps on the attention by putting out edgy political statements.
