You don’t even begin to understand the horrors of the last few centuries. If you did you’d realize why Europe/The West in general lies so much and basically accuses every socialist/anti-Us country of doing cartoonishly evil things because it’s the only way Americans see a government operate; not only that but most Americans believe whatever the state department tells them about any country even though they KNOW the US lies about them.

It’s always “yeah, I know the US is bad, but I just KNOW this unprovable slop about China and the Middle East is true this time! They really did kill a bajillion protesters so we have to be involved, US has a responsibility to promote its democratic values!!!!” Completely dropping the criticism they claimed before.

Yep, I’m secretly Asian which is scarier to liberals than me being white. I’m sure we both understand the implications of this viewpoint.

So with this logic, because of America’s current and past war crimes if America wins gold we don’t get to fly a flag either or hear the anthem? Even if the athlete wants to? What then about Germany, or France, or hell, Iran? I honestly don’t know what countries are in the Olympics these days but sometimes libs tend to get all up in arms about weird shit like olympians should be able to fly their flag?? Why not?? What significance does it hold for this athlete? You just want to humiliate her on behalf of her Government?

I mean, in a simpler world we could just do sports instead of war. Ha. What a cool world. I’m just trying not to let people get away with equating modern Russia with Israel and saying they shouldn’t be allowed to fly their flag or play the anthem. It’s not like Putin wrote the anthem or designed the flag. You’re clutching pearls.

You still didn’t answer my question tho: Why humiliate this woman on behalf of her government? Do we not let Alysa Liu play the anthem or hold a flag because she needs to be embarrassed for her governments actions? That’s what I’m trying to point out here. You guys hold strange standards for Russia specifically, it doesn’t matter who’s doing “bigger atrocities” because the reality is Russia is treated unfairly because of their government.

What’s the point in humiliating this athlete who probably doesn’t even support Putin?

Yes but when it’s Russia people tend to clutch pearls, what we’re engaged in right now (US) is a million times worse before you even get to Iran. I’m not sure if you mean to imply Iran is “representing a fascist regime starting wars and committing atrocities” from my words or not, which was not my intent.

So let’s ban every country currently involved in or creating war in Olympics & World Cup. Hell, Eurovision too. Isreal being involved should be reason enough to boycott them altogether so now let’s do Ukraine, Russia, US, Iran, all NATO countries, Congo, Sudan, Japan/China/Taiwan, throw in Argentina too cuz fuck Milei am I right? …

All of a sudden the sportsball games are real fucking boring … without the worlds most major,oldest, most populated countries… You see why this is dumb and it’s kinda short sighted to place so much nationalist sentiment into fucking sports… I don’t give a fuck about the Olympics anyways cuz they’re always a fascist big dick contest of which country can get the best publicity fluff.

But tbh even tho I don’t care about the sports let them fly their fuckin flags. Except Isreal, they should be barred and shunned from the world stage continually and without exception until they dismantle the genocidal apartheid and change from the ground up.

Like it or not, Russia in its current form ain’t going anywhere. They’ve been a country far longer than most. If the USSR hadn’t been illegally dissolved we wouldn’t be in this mess with Putin anyways. When Russia was Socialist, Isreal was called fucking Palestine and Palestinians were mass killed and forced out of their homes. That’s something that these feverish anti Russia people love to forget when comparing the two unfairly.

What?

But that’s the thing I’m not equating sexual desire with evil. I never said he was evil for being horny, or evil at all. I said he’s a pig because he’s acting like a pig. That’s also not what secular means.

So many people just itching to reveal they can’t be normal about women. I seriously hope people in here don’t post stuff like this acting like it’s normal. I’m gonna stop replying to these weirdos probably for my own good. The reaction to this is making me sick.

You aren’t entitled to women’s bodies just because you “cast a wide net” and you do activism. Women are valid for calling this act sexist, childish, objectifying behavior.

He should specifically be held accountable for being a pig, just as you are being for defending him. Seriously what is wrong with you guys? Too much Chapo?

You think I want a sexless future because you’re being a fucking pig? Western men are truly all the same, y'all can’t even face criticism for your sexist opinions online without resorting to telling me I believe things that I don’t.

All of a sudden telling other men to act normal is me saying I don’t like sex and women and men can’t be horny, you guys have seriously twisted world views of you think Jacob’s post is OK but women calling him gross isn’t. Tell me, why aren’t you arguing with the women in this thread who don’t appreciate your pig comments, are they also anti-sex puritans?

Women aren’t your objects. Asking women randomly to send their titties and pussy pics is absolutely entitled. The fact you see it as “Just asking” is so dumb.

Insult me all you want you are not entitled to seeing anyone’s body and I sincerely hope no stupid women fall for your (or this actors) weird behavior. Don’t send these gross fuckers any pictures of yourselves ladies they’ll probably end up online

Hold him accountable for being sexist. defending this in this way just says more about you than you realize.

I don’t even know what you’re saying tbh. Context dependent dynamics? Power is bad and context is bad? Is that from some anarchist theory?

Because that's a kindergarten understanding of socialist/ML theory and politics in general

Do you even know what secular means? How is this secular or puritan?

The thrashing these guys are doing to defend general sexism under a guise of “you’re anti sex and actually I’m a feminist for being okay with naked woman” is astonishing. And very sad… Casual Sexism & Rape culture is huge in the online left it seems

Yeah because I call out a pig being a gross pig, I want a sexless future. Literal child thinking. You may think you aren’t acting like a fucking dog but you are. It’s okay it just shows me how most other men deal with their sexual feelings. Go and sexualize more women and call me a puritan lmfao.

Bragging about your “feminist circles” online to make a point on a post about a man objectifying women that you’re defending is a strange choice. You should pay attention in those meetings more instead of oggling the women, maybe you’ll actually learn something.

There is a very strange western liberal tendency to draw the line in patriarchal structures at women’s sexual liberation. Sexual freedom and liberation is important but it’s not the end of your duty as a man (or even as a woman) in a patriarchal society.

I’m not gonna pretend I know what that Brooklyn comment means other than, shot in the dark, there’s a lot of rape that happens in big cities so people in general are more likely to be sexually repressed? And you think that’s a good argument against my point, that where rape culture is more prevalent they’re more, how you put it, puritan?

Please, if you can, bring up this guy & his post in your feminist circles if you’re gonna use them to make a point on the internet and let me know what they think about your take on this Berger guy’s post. Seriously I would be interested.

lol I’m not a puritan. You guys are being really gross. Go talk to a woman in person without hitting on her. Actually scratch that, just leave women alone. I know they already don’t feel comfortable around you

No comedy police here, if this is your idea of a joke you might not have a serious girlfriend any time soon if that’s your goal… If it’s serious then I’d rather not bother getting into the deets of what is right and wrong, it’s just proven thru reactions of gross dudes like this. Yall will trust literal rapists like channel 5 Andrew Callahan and then go and defend dudes like this for making sexist comments on a freedom boat? How come I have to focus on the apartheid and not Jacob who clearly is focused on getting his rocks off in this post? It does just spell gross to me idk yall are pretty wild in defending this tbh. Comes across as unserious at the very least.

I mean… just being a normal guy here, it’s kinda gross no? Even as a “joke”, it’s kinda gross. Not even kinda, it’s just gross. I think OP was more concerned about the responsibility public figures have and calling him out for being weird like this is totally valid. We should be holding people accountable for things not shielding him because he’s on a flotilla. Even if he’s not a grifter other people should be telling him to shape up. I’ve seen crass YouTubers do this flotilla thing and they weren’t gross or never allegations from Palestinian Americans that he fetishizes the people he wants to “help”…
