OH MY GOD
YOU'RE RIGHT
For once soviet did something right along with education and upbringing.
[QUOTE=Thomo_UK;46965484]This is already happening if you go to any city college or university[/QUOTE]
I've been to several colleges in Georgia and Florida and never really got that impression. Maybe it's because I'm in the south.

Though hipsters are appearing at alarming rate here. SJW is soon to follow I'm guessing.

Its mainly in the Liberal Arts colleges up in the North East and West.
I never noticed it at my technical college because they focus so heavily on STEM fields that they really don't pay attention to the other fields.
I'm taking communications and we literally almost never talk about social issues, instead focusing on the technical aspects of everything from sound design to digital video production. The closest we actually get to social issues is actually sustainability, we focus way more heavily in most humanities and liberal arts classes in talking about debate or sustainability.

And there's nothing wrong with diversity.
Its how you handle the diversity that becomes an issue.

Which is my point, that you have to go out of your way to find stuff like this.

How former Soviet blocs handle diversity is indeed becoming an issue these days.

If you've seen those communities, then they're clearly far from that. They also aren't arrogantly narrowminded in the left either.
holy shit I actually knew that chick, we went to the same school for a while.
[QUOTE=milkandcooki;46971423]this stuff was funny for a while but come on. be a little bit more creative when you're mocking people because anyone can just slam out a "i identify as a lizard..... my pronouns are garbage/fuck/and shit... haha.. czech your priv!!" joke in half a second.
[editline]19th January 2015[/editline]
i don't have a PHD in sociology or whatever, but my theory as to why this [I]exaggeration humor[/I] got popular is because anyone, regardless of how good they are at coming up with jokes, can just slam one out in a matter of seconds. it's the same reason why image macros got popular; they're EASY. that's why image macros are so looked down upon on here, because they're trash. facepunch just hasn't collectively grown to hate gender jokes yet, but it'll happen soon.
i've never really been one to be offended by these jokes because they're just so prevalent in 2014/2015 internet culture. go on [I]any[/I] gender/tumblr related post on reddit, youtube, imgur, here, and chances are you'll see a dozen [I]super original and super funny[/I] "wow i am so offended... i am a transpoly anthropomorphic anime-kin and this triggers me" "jokes."
it's a stagnant area of humor now; the tumblr-gender jokes that [I]are[/I] funny are just completely buried by minimal effort garbage.[/QUOTE]
This coming from you is hilarious, you're the most passive-aggressive SJW-type I see on this site, a lot of the things you post is just insulting white people or straight people for doing "straight things". They're funny, but when they consistently come from you it's actually kind of sad how you seem to portray the tpyical "make fun of them because they make fun of us" attitude.

no you'll find that when the people in this thread who post hateful shit and generalizations all over the place won't respond to thoughtful criticism with anything more than a witty retort if you're lucky.
This is stupid. It's not even funny hyperbole, it's just dumb hyperbole.

You should do the exact opposite, just have a ton of violence but with a narrator in the driest or most exaggerated voice explain all the violence in overtly sexual ways.
overdrawn. funny for first few seconds, then just got kinda dumb

redpill is just dumb /pol/ rhetoric that you probably shouldn't take seriously

[QUOTE=itisjuly;46981173]Except again, it has nothing to do with politics?[/QUOTE]
I'm saying the excessive spouting of that phrase comes from the board /pol/, or Politically Incorrect, on the site 4chan.org.
I didn't make any connections to politics or government in my post.
I'm saying this because the term 'redpill' is just ubiquitous for being a word echoed by people promoting strongly right-wing (sometimes left-wing possibly?) conspiracist views, in the same way you might stereotype users of Reddit (specifically r/atheism) with 'euphoria'.
Therefore, like 'euphoria', it's become a bit of joke over time to use the phrase, and more often than not, it's used to mock people who seriously use the phrase in a satirical way.
So saying 'redpill' is a bit of joke most of the time, which is what I was saying in my original post, and that you shouldn't really take it seriously, nor should you take people using the term 'euphoric' seriously (unless of course you can actually discern that what they're saying isn't satire).

You really have no clue what /pol/ bullshit is if you think FP is anywhere near that
