Hey maybe you can’t *technically *become asexual but you can certainly lose interest entirely given social or environmental factors. And from what I’ve seen of meatspace outside of the internet, the latter would certainly be me if I were in the dating market.

Any idea why they’re asexual? That seems strange for all three to be like that, to say the least. Though in this world if I were their age? From what I’ve heard and seen I might become that way after a while!

You’d think this would be common sense…

Then I guess men don’t date anymore, lol

We need to use another word besides Alpha. The division that the word “alpha” is associated with is the division between men who are desired by women and men who are not. If you’re using the controversial word “alpha” that is what you are talking about. It’s like classifying the rich vs the poor. Lemmy users don’t want to accept this but most heterosexual men want to be the former in either case, no one wants to be the latter.

Too bad the term “Alpha” males has gotten such a bad rap from cretins like Andrew Tate.

The term “Alpha male” refers to men with a mix of being tall, very good looks, charisma, authority, and social popularity. I think we can all agree that men with a high level of those traits are very popular with heterosexual, or have we fallen so far that most people don’t see that?

To put it more simply, all the men on Lemmy combined will not have as many women lusting for them as Jason Momoa or one of those Kpop dudes. Don’t call it Alpha Male if you want, because the term has been tarnished by hucketers. But we all know the type of man that has zero trouble attracting women.

How about snatching aid from Israel until they stop this genocide? That’ll hit them harder.

I donate all the sensitivity and offense I might have about your post to the sensitivity and offense that is needed to be summoned in response to that ghoul of a human being who plotted to murder a ton of women. Multiplied by all the downvotes. Wanna be mad? Throw that mad at him. Thumbs up to the FBI for catching his ass.

Prison rape is horrible. (Disclaimer: I’m totally not a feminist) But this shitbag planned to massacre a bunch of women so IDGAF what happens to him in prison.

Maybe have a blacksmith reverse engineer a rifle, get some folks behind you and overthrow some lords. Kill the old money, set up a government for the people, keep manufacturing as many simple rifles as possible, sail to america and give them to the natives and tell them to shoot at boats before they get too close.

Freaking epic. Make sure the Taino get them first. That’ll stop the whole Atlantic slave trade before it starts!

The day I see an ad that peddles something I want is the day the moon falls out of the sky.

Theoretically. Targeting anyone’s children is far out of bounds, and at 30,000 dead including people stampeding for food, it’s not just Hamas or Hamas kids they’re going after. Nor is it only Hamas that they’re starving to death en masse. It is, however, the bullshit they’re spoon feeding an uncritical world.

Israel is restrained by modern morality. We didn’t see Hitler coming, and we didn’t care back then. We do care now. If Israel went ahead with cattle cars and gas chambers and ovens they’d get curb stomped by the world. Israel has to tread carefully, portraying this as a war on terror instead of what it really is: mass extermination. Plus they literally cannot just mow down the whole populace, again because the world hasn’t forgotten Hitler and would shut them down. They have to boil the pot more slowly… because scrutiny has increased as have standards of human rights.

Without all those restraints…

Leopold II, Stalin, U.S. Indian Removal Act, Genghis Khan. It’s doable, sadly, but with Israel the issue is scale, not intent or magnitude of the hate involved.

I live right next to a Vault Tec vault, man. Vault 87! I’m set!

I can testify, fat in ground beef makes a heck of a great burger.

UGH!!! Dudes like this test my opposition to the death penalty.

Oh look at you, Mr. Keyboard Badass. I’m out and about and will continue to be long after long COVID has finished rotting your brain, which it apparently has started doing.

And look what that got them. A bunch of Chinese citizens who never got another chance to participate in anything because they’re dead. SMDH at a government responsible for Tiananmen Square. They got balls when it’s time to be evil but not when thousands or millions of lives are at stake.

I remember when people used to say “lock your doors!” to residents and “don’t use ATMs at night”. Now people are kicking down doors and robbing people in broad daylight. “Use 2 factor authentication” they say. Hackers laughed at that and smashed stacks to break in from the floorboards. “Look both ways” they say. Then you get hit by a super quiet electric car with no lights on.

You can look both ways and lock your doors and use ATMs in daytime all the live long day and someone will find a negligent or intentional way to end you. What always makes it WORSE is when they don’t get punished. Especially cops.
