This is one of the most insane takes ever

Gen z is… *checks notes* too empathetic…? Are the older generations okay? Are you alright?? Who hurt you?

[context, if you were curious: this was a comment on a Webtoon called Nevermore, which I would definitely recommend]

I know that we mustn't judge people by the meme pages they follow but couldn't help feel a little weird about damiano following a meme page making misogynistic and fatphobic jokes some of them even homophobic... I usually dont go through anyone's following list but i was trying to find the page of a Japanese artist that Damiano used to share posts onto his story from, a few years ago. I stumbled upon this meme page instead.

No, no. In this house we absolutely judge people by the meme pages they follow. Especially on their public, professionally curated, extremely popular insta.

Anon, I was fully ready to go spelunking for you. I scrolled to the very bottom to see what garbage he liked at age 16 which was totally unnecessary. Because he just recently followed ravidememe! Who posts some stuff like this:

But a whole lot of mainstream misogynistic, toxic, and woefully unoriginal shit like this:

And occasionally something truly abhorrent like a Napalm joke.

Apologies for the google translate. The page is Italian so I’m sure I’m missing a lot of problematic cultural references too. But this one I got:

“Milanese women” = women from Milan. Damiano’s ex of 6 years is from Milan and moved to Rome to be with him.

P.S. I will only respond to claims that this is solely the translations fault if you can give me a thorough explanation for each instance.

I know it’s the most bleeding heart bs I could say but my heart does kind of break for vulnerable young men who fell victim to the creepy predators who sold them lies for power and money. They’ve slowly but surely created the hell they claimed existed when it didn’t.

They where told that women didn’t like them because of their gender and all women want to have sex with a handful of men for money. So they’ve obtained no hobbies, no social skills, and reduced themselves to what they can offer financially. So they only attract women who want them for money making them feel even more lonely. Meanwhile men who don’t actively hate women can land any girl they want because they offer partnership.

And the predators that targeted them get to bleed them of their money as they trap them in this spiral. It’s heartbreaking.

Why is so okay to neglect your sons to the point that some man twice his age on the internet can feed him hate and make it feel like love?

Ironically I think it’s traditional gender roles that has kept us from seeing how messed up it is. Because if a bunch of unmonitored 16 year old girls where being targeted by a 50 year old man on the internet people would notice. People would see it.

what's going to happen? will Ruby live up to her generation's humor? we've only had one episode! so far it seems like the Doctor is speaking more slang than her!
