Gen Z and are so funny to me (another gen z) because they're like "we are against CAPITALISM ! we are the rebel generation !" but they'll defend porn (a capitalist industry based on the exploitation of women), prostitution (a capitalist industry based on the exploitation of women), makeup (a capitalist industry based on women's insecurities and sexist beauty standards), cosmetic surgery (a capitalist industry based on women's insecurities and sexist beauty standards), transition surgery (a capitalist industry based on using the issues of dysphoric and gender non conforming people to make money), fashion industry (a capitalist industry based on the exploitation of thousands of people and that's harmful for the planet) and like thousands of other capitalist shits. it isn't an anti capitalism generation. it's a very pro capitalism generation. they just use all these capitalist things (porn, prostitution, makeup, surgeries, fashion) to paint an anti capitalism aesthetic, an illusion, a look (based on their appearance, their content on social medias) to look anti capitalists, but they are not. if they were, they wouldn't think it's okay to traffick, exploit and sell women as objects, they wouldn't think it's okay to maintain and spread sexist beauty standards to push women to buy your products/surgeries because now they feel insecure about their face and body, they wouldn't keep supporting and industry that exploits other people and hurts their planet, they wouldn't support an ideology that tells you to alter your body by selling you lies about how you are born in the wRoNg one and need to pay to be your true self.
it's an aesthetic for them, they want to look cool and rebel and revolutionnary, but they support capitalism. and misogyny. (but but but it's EMPOWERING)
"trans ally" gay celeb men like troye sivan and pedro pascal etc will wear "protect the dolls" tshirts and spend all their time on social media saying TWAW, but won't eat a transman's pussy. despite all their posturing, their actions show that they know transwomen are men and therefore deserving of their time and energy, whereas transmen are women and therefore a forgotten afterthought. the uk supreme court's ruling that sex is biological affected both transmen and transwomen equally, and yet i have seen zero gay celeb men posting about how transmen are real men. it's allllll been about the transwomen.
no one has class solidarity quite like the male sex.
probably having fun working with this team

hello smosh nation. welcome to love is blind gay
decided to color up my silly sketches…enjoy
taking smosh reddit stories so seriously and being so mad about cast’s takes is really stupid. they are reacting based on the small piece of info they are given, they can’t really see the full picture and obviously they don’t know these people personally. they can only interpret a situation in their own way and speak theoretically or from their own experience.
also, guests don’t have the post itself in front of their eyes so they’re only relying on hearing it and this way of receiving information is hard for some people. thus, some context might (and does) get lost. they don’t have time to reread it, fully digest and form a solid opinion (about a story that could easily be a lie). but they still try. they still find ways to approach the situation from different perspectives and to see both sides.
keep in mind, we’re talking about entertainers, not counsellors. they are ordinary people with their own opinions which can (and maybe should) contradict with yours. they can’t take into account everyone’s feelings, povs, struggles etc. so they probably don’t mean any harm, just sometimes possibly could’ve known better. i think we have other and more important things to call smosh out for.
I think people's issues with Smosh Reddit Stories would be solved if they filmed it in a different way.
On most reddit videos, there is at least one story that there is a bad take to. And the comments always get on it and sometimes are put off of the person the take came from. (Personally, I'll usually disagree and have a rant in my head and then just move on). It has been pointed out though that these are their first impressions, and they are often filming reddit stories at the end of a shoot week or like first thing in the morning.
If that is truly the cause of the bad takes when they happen, then a different way of filling could theoretically fix it. Since we probably still want their first reactions, there could be a start point that is just them being read the stories. Then their takes could be filmed at a later time, either later in that day or later in the shoot week, thus giving them time to process and think instead of saying absolute first thoughts. This would also probably reduce the amount that they miss key details.
Idk it would probably be a lot harder to do this way, but it was fun to think about.
oh, trevor did angela so dirty when impersonating her (i hate to admit it was pretty accurate)
i love her, hope she’s not upset
I actually fucking hate it here, when will women wake the fuck up.
“I’m not a boy, therefore I need to wear makeup!” This is sooo progress 😍 gender ideology isn’t misogynistic at all!
“Thank you mom for that inner beauty talk that still has me googling makeup advice” this one is so heartbreaking because even if a mother tries to raise a daughter to be critical of beauty industry/fitting the standards of beauty in general, she still faces the whole pressure of the world
Women have the most freedom now more than ever, and therefore the beauty standards have been lifted to the point of skyrocketing makeup and plastic surgery sales in order to “keep them in their place”. It’s normalized to make fun of women for not performing makeup or femininity correctly, if you criticize this industry you’re “not a girls girl” and called ugly, gross, and unhygienic for not shaving or wearing makeup. It’s enforced by women as well as our capitalistic system and patriarchy.
I truly cannot see how anyone can argue that makeup is “just for fun” with comments like this being so common by women. Makeup and beauty isn’t for “fun”, it’s driven by patriarchy in an effort to keep woman in a self-created panopticon where they constantly criticize themselves.
