| Torgo 02/09/24 10:13:52 AM #120 | This is dumb misogynist men's rights crap isn't it?
Let's take a common relationship pitfall, and then accuse all women of it... and the men's rights guys will agree because they are straight men that have only had romantic interest or relationships with women, right? So any toxic relationship behaviors they can relate to or have experienced are going to flow from women to men, and it plays into their existing biases and this culture of blaming women for acting in ways our patriarchal capitalist culture has socialized them. --- Moderated for telling people not to commit illegal acts of assault and murder.09/2/23 Also moderated for not responding to obvious bait. - 10/03/23 |

Seinfeld ran for nine seasons, just so you know. Seinfeld was a show about nothing, not a show where nothing happens. It's a sit-com, but not a family or romantic sitcom like Growing Pains or Mad About You, and it's not about a workplace like The Office or Night Court. See the difference?

It was a gradual ramp up from warning about the foreign invaders weakening the blood of real Germans, or the internal threats poisoning the children's minds and threatening the culture with deviant behavior.
