Are you genuinely attributing your sense of life dissatisfaction to the fact that billionaires haven’t died or been killed yet or are you just saying the popular thing for applause?

I’m not unhappy either. I’m relatively content with my life. Things could be better but they could be much worse too.

My mom usually woke me up since she was already awake anyway but if she didn’t I would’ve just used an alarm. I knew how to get dressed and make myself a bowl of cereal at that age and I don’t need to pack a lunch because it gets served at the school for free.

Roaming free is dangerous to all wildlife.

Some kind of a wild cat like Ocelot would be cool assuming they could behave themselves but since they can’t, a normal house cat is just fine too.

That’s not at all unusual in Finland. I walked alone to daycare before I even started pre-school - granted it was at the end of the street I lived on.

The City of Helsinki encourages children to walk or bike to school. It is quite safe and several studies have shown that the daily exercise improves school performance. Children with a disability can apply for special school transportation.

I too have flexible work schedule but I don’t feel like working untill 7pm which is why I wake up at 6am.

Cancel all the work I’ve got lined up and go on a drug induced spending spree to try and use up all my savings.

You can’t be seriously suggesting that being in a sexual minority is somehow tied to one’s political leaning. Depending on the poll roughly 2 to 9 percent of the US population identify as LGBT. That is of the total population, not just Democrats. The extremists on the far right spouting hatred toward gays don’t represent the right as a whole any more than the far-left antisemites do. They’re simply holding the rest of the group hostage as hardly anybody dares to speak up. The gays on the right are under just as much oppression as the gays on the left - possibly even more.

If you make it a left-wing event you’re by definition excluding everyone not identifying with leftism. It’s one of the few things that should unite the left and the right but instead it gets politicized to the point that even people in that minority like myself turn against the whole Pride ideology.

Which sexual minorities wouldn’t feel welcome at left-wing-events?

The right-leaning ones.

Being gay is not a left-wing position. A Pride march is a claim about sexual orientation and gender, not a general anti-oppression festival. By making it a left-wing event you’re making roughly 50% of sexual minorities not feel welcome there. Pride is supposed to be about tolerance and inclusivity but these people are making it conditional.

Pride flags being present in other events doesn’t weaken my argument but just further highlights it. That is exactly the same thing as flying a Palestinian flag in a Pride event. It does not belong there.

Cashier virtually every time. Self-checkout when I only have few items which is almost never.

Both. The far left and the far right have more in common with eachother than with the people in the middle.

I don’t know what else I can say to make my view clearer. There are people in those events that I don’t want to be associated with. If they would only focus on the pride thing and keep the rest of it to themselves, then I could choose to not care about it but they don’t and thus I wish to not partake.

You don’t have to endorse anything.

No but presence is read as assent. I wouldn’t join a right-leaning march if people were flying Nazi flags there either. It doesn’t matter that I don’t personally support them. By being there I effectively do.

And I’m not equating a Nazi flag to a Palestinian flag. It’s just a provocative example to highlight my point.

I don’t see the issue. I have a friend I hang out with once a year for a day and we don’t talk eachother a single word for the remaining time.

If you are against one kind of oppression but not against another, you aren’t really against oppression.

Which circles back to my original point: simply being gay is no longer good enough.

No, I’m not excluded. I just don’t want to march for an unrelated cause that people smuggle in which I don’t support. They wouldn’t tolerate me waving an Israeli flag there either, nor should they.

Last pride march here had a ton of Palestinian flags there for example that not only has nothing to do with pride but is also a hilariously ignorant thing to do considering how gays get treated in most Muslim-majority countries.

It’s a left-wing event pretty much. If you’re gay who leans right you’re effectively straight.

And it spreads everywhere. Can’t even partake in pride march because of my wrong cultural views. Simply being gay isn’t enough anymore - need to sing up for the package deal.
