      "a 40-minute video unrelated to my question is exceedingly unhelpful.

      it’s good you guys are learning about vulnerable minorities, but it’s not news to everyone and not relevant everywhere."

        I’ll repeat, since you clearly didn’t get the point.

        it’s good you guys are learning about vulnerable minorities, but it’s not news to everyone and not relevant everywhere

        This here. This makes no sense. What the fuck are you trying to say with this? The parent comment made no indication to suggest that they didn’t know about vulnerable minorities. Quite different from your comment which did imply a lack of awareness of the context about why people would be upset at Katy Perry.

          “I’ll repeat…”

          it’s okay, i got it.

          “this here…”

          oh you aren’t repeating anything.

          you’re going to try to explain yourself instead of repeating a vague question.

          good idea.

          “What the fuck are you trying to say with this?”

          it’s good you guys are learning about vulnerable minorities, but it’s not news to everyone and not relevant everywhere

          “The…[reply]…made no indication to suggest that they didn’t know about vulnerable minorities”

          no it didn’t, where did you get the idea they don’t know about vulnerable minorities?

          personally I’m very glad that, as I said, they are “are learning about vulnerable minorities”

          “Quite different from your comment…”

          Right…they had an unrelated answer to my comment…you are agreeing with me, but are trying to sound like you’re not agreeing.

          should I pretend you are not agreeing with me here?

          okay: harumph! you do not get it. let me explain! grr:

          my comment was about how we shouldn’t be attacking someone for something they didn’t say, and my subsequent comment agreed that most of the other comments seem misogynistic(hostile towards women), which explains why people are attacking women.

          so it’s weird that the reply was “quite different from my comment”, but not super uncommon on internet comment threads.

          i asked “hey did this woman actually say what you guys are all attacking her for?”

          the answer was “no, but it’s okay that we’re attacking this woman because other women are also getting attacked”.

          I strongly disagree with that reasoning.

            the answer was “no, but it’s okay that we’re attacking this woman because other women are also getting attacked”.

            Ok. I did actually glance at the rest of your comment after writing that last one. The fact that you’ve written this indicates you clearly don’t understand the broader context, which is precisely what that video was supposed to help with. People are not attacking Katy Perry “because other women are also getting attacked”.

            Go watch the video. Or read some of the other critiques that I’m sure have been written somewhere online. Help yourself learn why vapid “girlboss” capitalism is…not actually good for anyone, including women.

              “I did actually glance at the rest of your comment…”

              there you go!

              now if you read the comments before replying to them, you’re not going to get so confused next time.

              “…vapid “girlboss” capitalism…”

              ah, back to the old “if I change the subject they’ll forget the original topic”.

              not going to work, but fun.

            no it didn’t, where did you get the idea they don’t know about vulnerable minorities?

            You. You made that baseless accusation against them. That’s the only way to interpret your comment.

            At this point you’re just being a troll. Goodbye.

              “You…”

              you are incorrect!

              that is actually a quote from your own comment.

              as you admitted, you are trying to answer a comment without reading the comment first, so you’re bound to get confused.
