Similar post was made on the .world lemmy community but I banned from there and some people don’t federate world so I though I’d ask here too to see how the answers differ.

fossilesque is a big one for me that I didn’t see in the .world post

    Explain why this idiom has the intended demeaning effect, without implying sexual submission and drawing on societal shame. Even further, explain “good boy.”

        Forget that you sexually harassed me? The only alts I have have the same username, just on different instances.

          Your inability to understand an English idiom doesn’t make its intention sexual harassment. Your decided to interpret it as such so you could use it in an argument instead of focusing on the actual topic. Typical ML. It’s like you’re following a script ;)

            Amazing mental gymnastics to justify sexual harrassment, when you could have just apologized and grown from it. It’s not like you engaged with my points in that thread in good faith to begin with.

              Man, I knew this guy probably sucked after the first comment but I didn’t want to profile. Most users who claim they are being harassed by alts are either assholes who take the public disgust with their assholery as proof of a targetted harassmemt campaign or people who are simply too stubborn to be reasoned with under any circumstances. Often both. I didn’t want to assume this of them only to find out they are actually a victim of targetted harassment lol.

              Sorry they were gross to you comrade :/

                Thanks, I appreciate it! Somehow people think it’s entirely normal to do shit like that, and when called oiut for it they blame the target. It’s absurd.
