      a lot of people are more socially inept than you think and don’t have many conversation starters

        THE GAME being the patriarchy approved “normal” topic that ALL MALES MUST be able to have a conversation about in order to be socially acceptable is toxic as fuck. The way your turning it around to say poor smol bean hegemonic culture enjoyers don’t know what else to talk about is kind of true, but that doesn’t make it any better. If anything its another example of how patriarchy hurts men as much as women.

        Just to be clear, the problem isn’t sports but patriarchy. This may be less of an issue outside the US. Hopefully its not as bad in the US as was, but i doubt it

            People do talk about sports - and that’s fine! I don’t hate sports or have a problem with people watching sports or talking about sports.

            I’ve been pretty clear about what i have a problem with. It’s when someone says “i don’t watch sports” and that’s a problem because it isnt considered the approved and acceptable answer to that question

              “I don’t watch sports” means you view not watching sports as part of your identity. The person you’re talking to clearly enjoys sports, and you’re stating that some core aspect of the way you think of yourself is just against sharing that with them. Generally when I talk to people I stay open to their hobbies even if I’m not into those hobbies at that time.

                  I’ve been here since the “do you want to fuck the bunny cop” days but anyway there are other ways to say that, like “I haven’t gotten into that sport yet, what’s the deal” or literally any other phrase that doesn’t murder the conversation on the spot

                    I’ve tried many times pretending to be something I’m not to get others to accept me, and it has never led anywhere good. It just makes me feel like an infiltrator while being miserable and hating myself. This is a lesson I have spend half of my life learning the hard way.

                    Were you also telling people on Hexbear that they "need to go out" to kiss strangers during New Years during the ongoing covid pandemic, all in the name of normalcy and to make sure no one “embarrasses leftism” by being “shut-ins” too? sus-soviet
