German flag in username. Opinion super not valid.
It really depends on what they’re talking about. Engineering? Pretty valid unless you care about maintainability. Israel? Not valid. How many seeds should bread have? They’re basically a bird so take it as you will. Weird sex or clubbing? On a scale of Berlin to Bavaria…
It’s not wrong per se to be from Germany, nor to tave pride in where you came from. But displaying nationalism is that way is a surefire indicator of having bullshit opinions. No matter which country.
Tbh I don’t associate having a country flag on your profile with nationalism. As someone who attempts to not assume everyone on the internet is American I find them generally useful so I can better attempt to meet people where they are rather than exclusively use American examples.
Now if they’re out there waving german flags irl for no reason, then I’m side eyeing them and suspecting they might vote AfD
Is it possible that I’ll get some false positives? Sure. But it’s not like it’ll have any consequences online.
IRL, I even talk to AfD voters (because cancelling them is counter-productive). But I’m not gonna change anyone’s mind online, so my filter is more strict there.
“Actually Israel is defending itself and you’re antisemetic”
Where do you think the „g“ in „lgbtq“ comes from?
Godzilla? I suck at this game.
I think it’s actually “Georgia”.
Can’t remember whether it refers to the state or the country, though 🤔
It refers to the O’Keeffe
The one with the vaginal flower paintings?
That’s her! “Lesbian Georgia, Buddy — The Quintessential”
Lebanese German Bosnian Turkish Qatari
Why did the Germans make their flag so similar to the pride flag anyway?
There are more gay Germans than Straight Germans, but many are in the closet still. But they decided it was just easier.
We could always choose to unify the prefixes. We have pansexual which is a Greek prefix but bisexual which is a Latin prefix. If we swap it for Greek it becomes disexual. That implies a grouping of straight, gay, and lesbian as either monosexuals (Greek) or unisexuals (Latin) which I don’t think I’ve ever seen used.
Looking at this table on Wikipedia you could come up with some funny (and nonsensical) derivations en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeral_prefix
Clearly had no education. Opinion truly invalid.
The thing I really hate is how this shorthand dismissal of people’s opinions based on their gender identity or sexuality has become normalized on social media. Yes, the joke is funny, but it’s saddening that this has become acceptable behavior as it encourages discrimination in the real world too. It also makes me wonder how we can continue to function as a society without deprogramming individuals that have gotten radicalized by online hate.
