'Fearless girl' gains little companion

[Enthusiastic Steward]

In a sane world this thread would be about something that actually matters.

In a sane world we wouldn't be on the forums of a website created to provide a discussion platform about a game where a magical gnome can run around the homeland of the panda-people firing spells at a shapeshifting cowman debating the interpretations of heavily politicized corporate art.

It's not a sane world, never was and never will be.

At least it's entertaining at times!

You're really set on wearing the victim cardigan, huh?

In the very last frame the scary "feminist" (a woman standing up for herself) distinctly explains what it is she's having an issue with among those 3 men, not going off on some rant about how they represent every man out there.

But I suppose it's difficult to see if one doesn't see the hypocrisy in the first place within making sweeping generalizations about women but being angered if the same is done in relation to men.

Which comes back to "NOT ALL MEN!! But yes, all women", the point being made within the comic.

And I never said all women. But look at you. A perfect mirror of the comic.

I never said you did, I'm pointing to your reaction to the comic.

And of course I'm a perfect mirror of the comic. Of the woman therein though, not the men. I'm equally against it when the tables are turned, but I rarely see that on this forum and I try to stay clear of sites where such attitudes flourish.

Man, people really dislike this little girl statute.

Yeah, so many man children feel threatened by the silliest things. Embarrassing, really.

But I'm sure it's always discrimination, right?

[Elba]

Well.. It isn't a bad thing, because Businesses generally hire who is best for the Role.

That is one of the biggest lies. "Hire the best for the role" has for the longest time, and still often does, meant "just hire the white dude".

People hire what they know, and as most people who make such decisions are white dudes, that perpetuates itself.

Not sure what you're going on about now tbf.

Nothing's always "discrimination". Doesn't mean nothing's ever discrimination though.

[Noomz]

Doesn't matter still a bitch move.

Okay and the thread right here.

It's time to comrade Lenin to make a come back, he deserves a statue since communism is the main choice for hipsters these days.

We need a statue of Trotsky, then somebody can place a statue of Stalin with an ice axe sneaking up on him.

Now who said there is NO discrimination? Just you.

[Mormolyce]

Sounds like you're going to wind up with a whole ideological nativity set if this keeps up.

I guess next we need a bald eagle shitting on the dog.

... Yes, yes I did. I'm quite aware of what I said, you don't need to play the victim over it since I didn't claim that you said it.

[Gemini Soul]

Was a brave move, sadly doubt it will stay there long. Feminist will protest and sue till it gets removed and the artist gives a public apology, wouldn't be surprised if they try and get rid of the bull too.

[Sett]

Curious how many would change their tune if it was Fearless Little Boy instead of a girl statue being mocked. I wouldn't think so yet-



I don't care either way.

[Powerogue]

There clearly wasn't enough dog representation in statues today and they were rectifying the problem.

[Dextroden]

... Yes, yes I did. I'm quite aware of what I said, you don't need to play the victim over it since I didn't claim that you said it.

Which is why you talked about something no one said.

Feminism in a nutshell, I guess.

[xskarma]

Since it's likely impossible for this to stay on the topic of the actual statues and the act of placing them and will continue to go into forbidden topics (gender issues) I'm going to close this thread here.



CLOSED.
