None of what you mention is Socialism or Nazism or Communism *if you ask them for their definition of themselves*.
You don't get it. No one is asking socialists or communists or nazis tro define themselves. No one cares what crawls out of their mouths. No one has to respect a single they say, and no one does except of course for their apologists.
Socialism communism and nazisim are what they do. They are what they have actually done.
So your attempt to refute my points with a self-generated definition which you then expect me to honor is the height of narcissicism.
No one is playing your games. Instead, we're funding the military.
I am going by the textbook definitions of socialism, communism, fascism and nazism, not the weirdo alt-right definitions you've made up yourself.
Doesn't really explain women being paid less for doing identical office jobs though.
They're not, that's illegal. They're not *earning* the same because they're unwilling to stick around for another 4 hours after quitting time.
Are you seriously arguing that it should be expected of people to stay for 4 hours after quitting time, just to earn their pay? That is a deeply disturbing idea.
I know exactly as many women as men who are willing to stay around after hours to finish something. All of them consider it unhealthy and not ideal, but a willing to do it occasionally, to make stuff work when deadlines are looming.
Doesn't explain toxic masculinity leading to depression and suicide and violence among men either.
Oh boy there's the bullshit one. "Toxic masculinity" is right there beside "white male tears" when males point out that there's systemic issues that aren't being address and they see no way out except through suicide. You know, like how a women can destroy a mans career and life by a false rape allegation, or fake sexual harassment claim. And there's almost never any punishment for that false claim.
The systematic issues are there because of toxic masculinity. The whole expectation to be on top of everything, to be macho and in shape with a porn star penis, while working 60 hours per week running up the career ladder, going on adventure vacations, being an accomplished cook and a loving family father. These are all expectations men have of each other, as their metric of being "A REAL MAN", who shaves with an axe and fixes his own truck.
How many fake rape allegations are there, compared to actual rapes? How many are there compared to genuine cases of rape, that get thrown out because of technicalities or because the rapist has a rich daddy with connections?
Some are apparently too scared to even talk to women now.
Well I wonder why that would be? Man in a workplace to a female coworker: Would you like to go grab a coffee sometime? Women in that workplace to the man: No thanks. Women begins screeching sexual harassment to HR.
Has that actually ever happened outside of a stupid sitcom plot?
In my opinion, feminism is actually not a bad thing but it already has done its job in many Western countries. In the western world, it's not needed anymore. Women and men are equal on many terms. If they're not, then the "inequality" is due to biological reasons.
It may be your opinion, but it is factually incorrect. You obviously haven't taken the time to actually talk to women, I doubt you have very many female friends (that is not meant as a denigration of you, simply as an observation). Even in western countries, is it not safe for women to walk home alone after a party, because of men. But you say feminism is "done"?
What a magnificent forest of strawmen you've created there. They're all wrong, though.
You seem to want to "protect" women from the horrors of corporate culture, by making them stay in the home to raise children. In other words, you want to make the choices for them.
Here's a novel idea: Why don't you let the women choose for themselves?
I've been using, supporting and promoting FreeBSD for decades. Sadly, now that I'm aware of this change to the "Code of Conduct", I no longer can, nor will.
Consoles. If you don't have to absolutely play the very latest games, second-hand consoles and huge stacks of games can be had for barely any money.
I'm currently working my way through the absolutely ma-hoo-ssive PS2 library, and I'll get started on some of the Xbox360 games I missed out on the first time around (I basically stuck with Assassin's Creed, GTA IV and Red Dead Redemption).
It's the place that has historically been very welcoming of "guest workers", as we called them in the old days, and of anyone interested and willing to make the trip here and integrate. There are so many descendants of immigrants here that you don't even take special notice of them. Or did you think Scandinavians originally had olive skin, brown eyes and dark hair?
Hell, both sides of my family are filthy dirty gypsy immigrants from who-knows-where, and I'm as Scandinavian as they come, you'd think I was a direct descendant of Gorm the Old.
Things started turning to shit when various right-winger forces in government insisted on concentrating immigrants into ghettos.
GPM is a trainwreck. Their catalogue is a mess, with tons of artists lumped together because of similar names, albums with duplicate tracks and a host of other problems.
They never fix anything, no matter how many times you report obvious errors.
In contrast, Spotify generally fixes content errors within a week or two.

Sorry I didn't look at your patch earlier. Some crazy woman ran over my dog with her car killing him!
That is completely unprofessional conduct, and not something that should have been aired on a project mailing list or bug report.
Keep that nonsense on facebook or whatever.

"Doesn't explain toxic masculinity leading to depression and suicide and violence among men either."
That's none of feminism's business.
It absolutely is. Toxic masculinity affects everyone, from depression, loneliness and suicide in men, to risk of rape and assault on women.

Good riddance, then.
"Oh boo hoo, they won't let me bully people anymore on their mailing lists. THEY'RE BULLYING ME BY NOT LETTING ME BULLY PEOPLE!"
Too bad, so sad. Their org, their rules.
Who's praying for neo-Stalinism?
Stalin was a murderous tyrannical despot. Where was the social ownership and democratic control of the means of production?
He cloaked his regime in the rhetoric of socialism, but he didn't actually implement it.
None of what you mentioned is socialism.
Socialism is social ownership and democratic control of the means of production: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
It is not "whatever I don't like", as you seem to think.
I think most regular users use the image search to find the original galleries of porn JPGs :-)

SMPlayer with MPV as the backend is probably the best media player on any platform right now.
Nonsense, SMplayer is vastly superior to MPC.
If there was a "+6, Correcting severe misinformation in the headline and summary" mod point I could give you, I would.
Thank you for giving us the facts.
The very strict immigration rules are a very recent development.
Good luck picking me out in a lineup, I'm tall, blond and blue-eyed, text-book Scandinavian looks :-)
Closed, cleaned out (only used for keeping track of events), never had one.
You obviously don't know Northern Europeans very well at all. Or Europe. Or people in general, actually.
We will right this ship. And we will stand tall and look down upon the shattered remnants of xenophobia and racism.

That's funny, because Northern Europe is doing really goddamn well currently, despite the doom-and-gloom spewed by mostly right-wing tabloids.
You can keep your "alpha male" bullshit. We don't need it.
Jesus was Jewish, and was (according the Gospel of Luke) circumcised 8 days after birth, in accordance with tradition.

Don't bother with Tidal. Their selection is crap, their app is crap and they keep pushing the nonsense MQA format (which has DRM baked in).
Buy from Bandcamp. They offer FLAC downloads of everything.
