I’m just talking about how other members of the subculture might feel when they see people mocking this one high profile guy for his participation in it. They might not mind.

I don’t know much about the “bimboification” subculture, but it might be the case that even they don’t really want it to be normalized. It seems like one of those kinks where part of the fun is the tabooness. Not everyone wants a Disney parade float and a rack at Target.


It’s the same kind of situation as when a homophobic Republican turns out to be secretly gay. Is it fair game to mock them for their hypocrisy?

For there to be a whoosh, there needs to be a joke that was taken at face value. I got that you were trying to make a snarky comment about the people getting kicked off health insurance, but those people aren’t the ones who get their insurance through their employers, so your “joke” doesn’t land.


No, I don’t think so
I know, I was just explaining for the non English speakers.

They ironically got this one wrong too. It’s supposed to be Achilles’ Heel.

The original comment we are threaded under is claiming that the Trump administration, by committing the clear war crime of targeting civilian infrastructure in Iran, would also be committing genocide. Do you agree with this assessment? Do we need to lump all evil acts under the definition of genocide or risk being guilty of “apologia”?

People will still get emergency care, even if they can’t afford it. They go bankrupt. They will forgo preventative treatment, but this is kicking the can down the road and leads to a net increase in medical costs in the long run.
In any case, your original comment about people having more free time to protest because they don’t have to go to work to keep their insurance is nonsense. The ones getting kicked off their insurance are not the ones getting it through their employers. They are getting it through the ACA marketplace, i.e. purchasing it themselves. Even if they were losing work-subsidized health insurance, they would still have to work because other things people need cost money too. Things like food and (as you mentioned) housing.


Americans still have to work to pay for their healthcare. It will cost even more now.


He doesn’t believe any of this. He’s pandering to the dumb, too-online young right wing men who get their news and opinions from comedians’ podcasts.
