I could have been clearer - it kind of has to be read in context of how I personally interpreted the original post. So no worries at all obviously. :)

I am not talking about people enjoying things that I don't personally enjoy, I was talking about an instinct that men (allegedly) have to share quote disgusting stuff with each other.

This post doesn't seem to me to be about sharing a weird common interest with your friends. There's nothing (inherently) toxic nor gendered about having weird hobbies.

The post is about seeing something disgusting and immediately sharing it with all your friends who will also be disgusted, and portrays this as if it's just a completely normal thing for men to do. And while I can kind of understand where the assumption that men behave like that comes from, I have never experienced anything like that with any of my friends, and I'm pretty sure I never will. So it seems like a bit of a misrepresentation.

There's so many weird societal constructs about how men are supposed to behave. I have never encountered any of that shit with my friends, but that's probably partly due to a selection process where I have no interest befriending people who display toxic masculinity traits.

If you genuinely think men obsess over disgusting shit and talk about who they want to fuck all the time, maybe take a moment to reconsider a) who you're hanging out with or b) the cultural impulses you allow to shape your perception of the world.

I think the main reason men act this way is that they're trying to fit into an image of masculinity that has been imposed on them, in part through tweets such as this one.

Yeah, happens to me all the time as well. People specifically ask me not to commit acts of genocide in a specific population, and I just accidentally bomb them anyway a few hours later.

It's truly tragic, but there's really nothing I can do about it, and I honestly wish people would stop bitching about it.

Yeah, the zoomers I know who make an effort with regards to fashion all dress in a very fun way. I dig it.

If I'm upset by it it's just because young people are not wearing the same clothes as me and more, implying that I'm getting old. It stings a little.

Norway has a relatively outspoken that it's pretty much just a question of strategy in order to maximise impact.

Prime Minister Gahr Støre, April 12 2024:

We think along the same lines [as Spain]. We are ready to recognize the state of Palestine and their rightful place in the UN. The question is when, and on that we are closely coordinated [with Spain]. [...] I do not exclude the possibility [that Norway will recognize Palestine by the end of June], but we have not yet decided, and it is a very dynamic situation in the region.

Spain and Norway play different roles in negotiations: While Spain rally support and are louder, Norwegian peace processes have a history of happening entirely behind closed doors until they are ready to see the light of day (if that ever happens). That probably explains why the Norwegian position has not been more clearly marked, as any such step could weaken their position in negotiations.

Benjamin Netanyahu and Yigal Amir are ideological brothers. Norway has a policy of always keeping open negotiations, but we know damn well there can be no peace with Netanyahu.

You'll never find peace with these fascists.
