Protesting through dance is indeed very cute.

For more info, please watch Newsies, a 1992 musical drama about the paperboy strikes produced by corporate behemoth Walt Disney Pictures :)

It's wild to me how consistently the internet can comment on a woman's looks no matter what the context.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

I would say something like this if there was a good looking dude up there... I really doubt it has to do with her being a woman. Did u see the thirst for Luigi? He's not a woman.

This is a wild misrepresentation. Luigi is an outlier when it comes to women commenting on a man's appearance on the internet.

I'm sorry you feel that way but I wasn't being derogatory.

These tired tactics are getting tired.

Idiots online can't read tone and make up intent to they can argue...

Thank you clarifying. Not everything is fucking a culture war issue jfc

Please keep distracting from the class war or people might start noticing that we’re losing!

People said suspect pictures in the killing of Brian Thompson were attractive too.

Especially when most of her face is covered by a mask. "She has pretty eyes" would at least make sense, but I suspect in this case it's just code for red fever.

I take that back. You can't even see her eyes. She's skinny and Asian; that's probably all that mattered.

Yellow fever? I think I got the wrong term. It's not something I use or think about a lot :shrug:

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago

I think you're overthinking it a little. She's fit and wearing flattering athletic wear. I don't think people saying she's attractive is indicative of them fetishizing her ethnicity.
