I experienced the same thing. Thankfully it eventually stopped automatically feeding up his vids.

Still won't make it funny.

Also Don't look up how the US military was able to influence that movie! It's uselessly vague or redacted!

But those trade relationships are definitely equitable these days, right?

...right??

Sure, it was for spices, definitely not for money.

It was a different time. We don't do that anymore!

Doesn't matter how many siblings I've had, how many kids I've raised, or how long I've worked in environments where people talk rough.

Don't be a debate pervert. Go learn about mutual respect.

Definitely not. Knee-jerk response. Do you not think about the impact of what you say to others?

Always look on the bright side of life

When was the last chattel slave in the US released again? 1942.

When did slavery end on a global scale again? Never.

Damn. Sounds like we traded the evils of merchantilism for the same evils under capitalism, but with a fresh coat of paint.

Go read some socialist theory if you truly support socialism. Your ignorance on the topic is palpable.

Some grow up without fearing words, but understanding the implications of the language they use and the effects it can have on others.

But no, it's definitely that people are "afraid" of the words, not that they try to be cognizant of their words and actions.

Thank you! What a reasonable take.

I don't post my dissent because I have no sense of humor or because I expect people to universally agree with my own sense of humor. I posted this because I hoped some people would think, "huh, maybe I shouldn't post jokes that further propagate the harms caused by patriarchy when there are plenty of other jokes I can make or ways I can phrase the same joke that aren't at the expense of those around me."

Maybe I want to live in a world where women are treated with the same respect as men. Part of making that change is not continuing to use language that is harmful towards them and calling out others for it when I see it.

TLDR: Do better OP. The bar is on the floor and you and everyone upvoting you still somehow missed it.
