Random thought: this country hates when people born as one gender dress like other genders (or no gender at all). But, oh boy, we love when (white) people dress up like pretend cops and fake military.
Thanks, Costco
Every day I thank the gods that my son is into firetrucks and firefighters and not into cops and soldiers.
Eh, playing guns and watching war movies was all I was interested in, ages 6-16. Says more about society than it does the kid themselves
Imagine how in a future society kids will play fascists and revolutionaries and get mad that it is always their turn to be the fascists.
Glad you got better. I can't stand watching ww1 and ww2 films any more because od how hard they jerk America off.
The fact that it looks like the kid's wearing a functional FLC with functional MOLLE webbing is actually more disturbing to me than the whole "dress your kid up like a soldier" bit.
The webbing is completely attached, no loops except for the binoculars. Saw it in local Costco today
Profoundly sick society, yada yada, entrenched militarism, etc. and so on :zizek-preference:

Tbf white people love when POCs dress their kids like cops and military too.
Although tbqh that makes it worse
But, oh boy, we love when (white) people dress up like pretend cops and fake military
It goes a long way back in time. The weird old-timey thing about dressing up little boys in sailor costumes started as a bunch of 19th century German parents jacking off about how awesome the German navy was.
God 19th century German intellectual culture is just the most ridiculous fucking thing, I love reading about it cause it's just bizarre even though it's very influential for intellectual culture today.
Yes please I would like a 1500 page book with thousands of Latin words explaining which ones are "classical" and which ones are "barbarians"
And let's have a big discussion on the patriotism of printing stuff in blacketter or not.
yeah when its full on fraktur i dont even bother trying to read it, i know i could just learn but its fucking annoying
turns out there's pretty good OCR for fraktur though.
How long do you think that hammer and drill have been setting out?
I support the troops in the protracted children's war on Tesla
I’m not sure what identification is being censored on the left so I’ll just assume someone drew a dick on that house
