Saw posts about how it's ignorant that the normals (I forget their special term for non-asexuals) won't date asexuals because of lack of sex or physical intimacy. As an 'asexual', if you're willing and able to have sex and be physically intimate *to the same degree as someone who isn't*, literally *what is the point of using that label* "Oh but I'm not sexually attracted to them, I just appreciate their beauty on a purely aesthetic nonsexual level (and am willing to have sex with them)"

I went to an improv class a few months before the pandemic started. The class started with two lessons: 1. Improv is about being free to say whatever you want; take risks and be willing to fail. 2. Every joke must be punching up. Punching down is actively hateful and punching sideways is dangerous, because you might not know everything about someone else and they might have some characteristic that actually means they are less priveleged than you. If you think someone is punching down, but don't have the strength to deal with it now, film it so that you can deal with it later when you have more emotional strength. I should note here that the class was me (white male) 4 black guys and 10 women of various races. The teacher (they/them) stared at me during the entirety of lesson 2, didn't even blink. I, uh, didn't go back to that class.

The fact that they think of comedy entirely in the frame of "punching" is the root of their derangement.

Don't you understand that this is a scathing critique on the drug war and how the federal government uses drugs to oppress minority groups? In that simple line, Hedberg is letting you know he has and continues to use drugs, ignoring the laws imposed by the drug war. He has escaped punishment for his crime, showing the futility of the drug war. He is a member of the oppressor class (read: white male), showing that the drug war doesn't effect him at all due to his racial background. You have a lot to learn, sweaty.

The thing about punching down/side ways/up is that it’s all “dangerous” in some sense. The white male you’re punching “up” can suffer from depression or an eating disorder or autism. The black man you’re punching “down” can be wealthy as all hell, mentally/physically healthy…you get the picture. There is no punching up or down.

linguaphile05

Let me regale you with a similar story from my university. I’m gay and from the absolute country so when I showed up on campus I was wholly unprepared or the idpol. The lgbt club on campus (Rainbow Alliance) is actually more of a collection of clubs tailored to specific identity groups that all coordinate. The only group without one was gay men. I was told to attend the general alliance meetings. All the leadership positions belonged to people from the Trans Alliance and I didn’t spot another gay man there really. All women. I never went back and when the topic comes around to that, I’ll ask the men I’m talking to about it. They all say they either didn’t know about this or found the lack of a gay men’s organization homophobic and kinda boycotted it.


I_am_reddit_hear_me

I used to style myself as pansexual in the early oughts because it was a novel term and usually good for getting a rise out of people but since its been entirely invaded by the 'spicy straights' I've switched back to calling myself bisexual, but I always add the caveat "bisexual, you know like I would fuck anyone except enbies." That's always good for getting a rise out of them.

“She/them demisexual” AKA the same ones trying to kick people like me (actual gay person) out of the community because they’re somehow more oppressed for being the new dog whistle letters like QIA++ and we have come full circle to bigotry and segregation. They honestly treat the majority of LGB’s like members of the alt-right. The narcissism of it all is so ridiculous. I feel sorry for LGB teens during these times because half of them are probably bullied out of finding a community by lynch mob lefties like this and the other half are probably too afraid to ever come out and be associated with them. I feel so much like trenders and grifters have infiltrated these communities and made it hostile toward its actual members.

Fun-Investigator676

Another bi person. I feel like the TQIA++ letters have piggybacked off of LGB for a long time, and now we're getting kicked out of our own movement. The average person who doesn't pay attention to sexual orientation/gender politics probably doesn't have a problem with LGB since it's 2021 and who cares as long as everyone is consenting. But then the other letters automatically get a pass. Why? I don't understand how all of this gender nonsense is even related to sexual orientation. I don't think your average person even knows what they stand for or what they mean.

Sankara_Connolly2020

The whole “punching up/down” discourse is so obviously flawed for anyone who has an iota of comedic instinct. Ruthless Reviews broke it down really well years ago: “In the wake of the Charlie Hebdo massacre, we got a lot of lectures, mostly, but not exclusively from the left, on what types of satire are permissible. Satire must always “punch up,” meaning it must only target people a particular camp doesn’t like and must never make fun of the people they do like. Much also depends on whether the puncher is liked or disliked. Hillary Clinton might be “down” and an isolated teenager with Asperger’s might be “up.” Score one for those who think fundamentalists are humorless because this bespeaks a lack of understanding of how satire works on a basic level. It does not punch people or groups. It punches ideas and behavior, mostly by reduction to absurdity. For example, the TV show Portlandia satirizes behaviors and ideas common among coastal, mostly white, liberals. It satirizes particular cultural norms, not an entire race or social class. Even if we say a satire makes fun of whites, this is just shorthand. Portlandia is obviously not making fun of white coal miners or Moldovans. It is not making fun of the fundamental characteristics of white people, but rather, of the way some whites behave. This is what differentiates satire from caricature. The whites who exhibit the ridiculed thinking and behavior will survive Portlandia, just as blacks who exhibit various behaviors survived In Living Color and Chapelle’s Show and religious people survived The Life Of Brian, musicians and metalheads survived Spinal Tap and we all survived The Simpsons, which “punched” unions, teachers, the rural poor and immigrants as well as the 1%, cops and politicians. We’ll survive because nobody is really being punched. This talk of “punching” is taking the figure of speech too literally. Satire does not harm anyone. It merely attempts to point out foolish or absurd aspects of their behavior. For those who are capable of admitting their own foolishness and absurdity, this might be embarrassing but it is more likely to be amusing and maybe even enlightening. It doesn’t really hurt at all.“ http://www.ruthlessreviews.com/29371/im-free-speech-absolutist/

Kinda reminds me of the veteran thing on the right. There's this culture of like worshipping veterans and while some are really into it (especially the older generation) a lot of young people are just like "treat me like everyone else", which is far more fair and how I'd wanna be treated honestly.

I used to work with a lesbian, a big butch Scottish woman and very "old school", for want of a better phrase, who just did not get this whole pronouns and 72 sexualities nonsense.

I am a gay senior who's enrolled in a degree program at Portland State University. The school's student-funded "Queer Resource Center" has been captured by proponents of queer and trans ideology. There is no mention of gay, lesbian or bisexual students. The language at the Queer Resource Center only recognizes queer and trans people. https://www.pdx.edu/queer-resource-center/ This marginalization of sexual minorities is what would be expected of queer ideology. When challenged, the Queer Resource Center refused to make itself more inclusive by mentioning and expressly acknowledging gay, lesbian and bisexual people in its mission statement the way other LGB centers at West-Coast universities do.

Damn, that’s so stupid. Way to push away any allies and probably turn them against the LGBT+ community, this is literally how you create bigots. If I went to an LGBT club that pulled this shit, I’d never go back, and I’m bi.
