At the risk of losing brain cells, I'm extremely curious what her reasoning is here.
Is it just cause it's childish? Is shaming men for liking childish things not enforcing toxic masculinity?

If Cindy is commenting on him liking something she considers childish, then Cindy is indeed a bitch.
But if she’s commenting on his apparent expectation that it be free for men in their twenties as if he’s owed something, that I can kinda see her point.
Would be nice if she made her point in a way in which her meaning could be clearly understood.
He didn't say that it shouldn't also be free for other subsets of society.
Sorry the government doesn't have the funds to subsidize go-kart rides. That money has already been sent to Argentina.

Before seeing the reply, my l reaction to his post was “this is some bullshit. I wanna ride go-carts too.”
Cindy needs to calm down though. I’m sure he didn’t mean women wouldn’t be allowed on the track; just that this man really likes go-carts.
Maybe it's sexist to imply only men like go karts
Maybe because he advocates for something to be free for men instead of everybody?

"Engagement"
I'm just curious how she expects us to educate ourselves about this.
The feminist literature on go-karts does seem to be a bit thin.
The red flag I see is the word “Caucasian” in his username.
Most likely a reference to the character Jim from Mark Twain’s book The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Although he wasn’t ever called “N****r Jim” in the actual book, the character was referred to by that name throughout the Jim Crow era.
I suspect it’s a joke based on The Office. Oe of the main characters is a Triscuit-American called Jim. There is a different character called Asian Jim. Caucasian James = white Jim.
But "Caucasian" is now recognized as a racist term (in that using it produces racism), kind of because it's a science-y word for "white", an unscientific concept.
Who recognizes "Caucasian" as a racist term? I'm asking this in all seriousness as I have never heard this before
Caucasian should mean "from the Caucus mountain region"
As a science term for "white", see "Too Many Scientists Still Say Caucasian" in Scientific American, also "Abandoning the word Caucasian" in the Journal of Genetic Counciling and "The Ongoing Incorrect Use of Caucasian in Medical Research" in the journal Health Equity. There are a bunch of scientists who think this.
I think if you are actually describing something or someone from the actual Caucasus mountain region, it would be correct, but people might thing you meant "white" so even then you might be better off with "from the Caucasus Mountains".
Thank you for this.
My understanding was “caucasian” applied to all groups that migrated through the caucuses and that’s why Persians and other non-European nations were included. To be clear Im in my 50s so the above could just be the result of institutionalized racism that never got addressed due to not having much in an education in sociology/ anthropology

Educate yourself in what? Men shouldn't be allowed to enjoy themselves? Happy guys are red flags? What's the problem?
I mean, I guess the entitlement, but also it's a twitter shitpost lol
Yeah, god forbid that men have hobbies, they should work 25/8!
Women like go karts too, Todd!
Lets-a GO, Margo!
If you do things that bring you joy, frequently, you're less likely to become all festery and bitter, angry goblin.
I struggle to see what Cindy's getting at, it's ridiculous, of course, but I'm still curious and can't imagine in my wildest dreams, why, because someone wants socialism and she's brainwashed to believe capitalism is the only way? I don't get it.
I think it might have something to do with him only wanting it specifically for men.
All he did was creatively say he likes go karts.

Cindy really talks a lot of shit for looking like that
That's not very nice
It’s not, and it’s rather crass, but Cindy seems like a really shitty person so I don’t care
👍 as long as you understand that what you're doing is wrong and why. Not because it's crass, but because making fun of the way somebody looks because of something wrong they've done is mean and unrelated. There may be other people, who look the way she does, who do not deserve the meanness you put out. Don't hurt people who do not deserve it; it doesn't bode well to be mean as a response, especially to something as inert as the way somebody looks.
I don’t need to be preached to about it. I’ll respond to it how I’ll respond. Other people aren’t putting themselves out there being assholes who look like her so my response isn’t directed at them or victimizing them for their looks. I’m no peach either.
I'm sure there are plenty of very nice women who look similar to Cindy. When you attack her appearance, you're accidentally attacking them also.
Cindy's one of those arseholes that thinks age-appropriate applies to leisure activities , isn't she?
Unless the guy in question is responding to a free sanitary products post, then he can eat my entire flatulent arsehole
If anything, it's more age appropriate to drive a go-kart in your 20's than as a child. It's a car. You have to be 16-18 to drive a car. Just because it's a very small car shouldn't change that. 😤
Found the person upset at getting passed by all the 12 year olds because they weigh half as much.
:p
.... this that why the pass me? VINDICATION!!!!!!
Nah, you can take the curves faster when you weigh more, skill issue.
Hell yeah! I learnt that in F-Zero from Samurai Goroh and his Fire Stingray.
Educate in what ? Not enjoying life ?
I'm speculating about her biases; she views the activity of go-karting to be a childish activity, and therefore the dude is childish. She sees a dude asking for something for free as entitled. (Go-karting is super fun BTW, especially if you go with a big group of friends, now matter what your age.) Cindy is indeed a bitch.
