    One of my most unpopular takes is that toxic masculinity is at the root of people pretending to like/deluding themselves into liking beer

      is it really that hard for you to imagine that other people like things you don’t like? breathtakingly solipsistic

        beer being independently invented in multiple cultures by various peoples

        Uh aktually, people have just been pretending to like beer for 13 millennia. Every beer ever made tastes exactly like that warm cup of Budweiser my dad gave me this one time when I was 10 years old.

          Me after synthesizing every single comment I have read in this thread with my big brain: People need to drink beer to develop theory of mind.

      I don’t like most beers, but taste is purely subjective.

      Also Guinness slaps

        See, I like a lot of beers but Guinness isn’t one of them. Taste really is subjective, lol.

      probably some of that yeah, but i think toxic masculinity is a subset of fitting in with the cool kids kinda shit because women do it too and highschool girls generally aren’t trying to prove their manliness.

      Beer is good, this is so silly and childish of an outlook. People having personal tastes isn’t a misogynist conspiracy it’s a fact of life

        too many people who don’t like their first beer keep drinking until they like it because of shitty social norms that literally get people killed but ok

              They died of “the taste of beer which they forced themselves to like”? Or maybe you are being really fucking disrespectful to them by misusing their memories this way.

              Yeah they are dead because people forced them to like the taste of beer? What a stupid and infantile attempt at an argument. Alcoholism is a disease with a lot more complex causes than the taste of a single type of alcohol being acquired. Alcoholics don’t get drunk because they like the taste, they do it because they have an addiction which fills a void, is used to cope or deal with despair.

              Now tell me, do you think your friends who tragically passed from addiction and disease and despair would appreciate being used by you as a bludgeon to win unrelated pointless online arguments? Don’t you think you are being wildly disrespectful and out of line?

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember… we’re all comrades here.

Rules:

– PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE –

Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.

If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.

Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.

Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.

Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.

Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like ‘Raid: Shadow Legends’ in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.
