EMP systems usually are heavily regulated for a very, very good handful of reasons.

I just shoot them with a pellet gun.

Asking questions is being angry now?

Man you guys really don't like having your opinions challenged lmao.

Dude made an absolute arbitrary selection between two groups of people about who's generic enough to not be angry at being targeted by stereotypes.

I'm just curious about where that arbitrary line sits.

You're right, a bear wouldn't call women irrational.

Personally, I'd rather be called irrational than get mauled/eaten by a bear, but I know better than to kink shame people.

I'm not angry, I am curious. This whole man or bear thing has been an absolute blast for me.

It's a shame you refuse to answer though. That makes me sad. Why are you uncomfortable with this question?

What if it was stereotypes targeting idk, LGBT people, Christians, Muslims, liberals, right wingers, etc?

How do you determine whether a group is sufficiently generic that they are not allowed to be annoyed at stereotypes targeting them?

Sorry to ping you again, but I want to run a few other things at you, as I find people with the ability to doublethink without blinking absolutely fascinating.

Let's say, okay, 'men' is vague enough that a single individual man should not feel insulted when someone says they're so bad they would rather get mauled by a bear, because... Reasons idk.

Is 'women' vague enough so that it's just as fine to say, idk, some stereotypical bullshit like 'women are weak, dumb, and therefore belong in the kitchen'? Should an individual woman not be annoyed after hearing this? Is it not sexist?

I never claimed the opposite.

"black people" applies to all black people, but "men" doesn't apply to all men?

That's honestly an interesting way of thinking.

The automatic moderation is kind of funny here lmao

Oh so if someone says 'black people are dangerous thugs, I'd rather encounter a bear than a removed', it's all good, a black person shouldn't take it personally? After all, no specific black person is mentioned. Come on, just be a good ally, stfu and nod.

I am willing to bet many, many people wouldn't be ok with that, and rightfully so. I know I would not.

I live in a relatively small city in northeast France, about 10k pop

I can probably go everywhere if I take multiple forms of transportation. However it's so badly integrated that it's usually not worth the hassle.

I'm taking my mother, sister and her kids for a week at the beach late june. Direct car trip is like 6-7 hours of mostly highway, probably 40€ of gas and tolls.

Taking public transportation, it's 10+ hours, the only train line goes through Paris for some fucking reason, it's 60€ per person, and then I would have no useful means of transportation when we get there. Or maybe we will, idk, it's impossible to find any useful information about buses trams or anything anywhere.

So I'll just take my car instead of gambling on the train conductors not being on strike.

I'd love to take public transit, but if you need to travel further than the immediate neighboring cities, it's just so fucking inconvenient.
