Sure, women are allowed pretty much everywhere, but it still doesn't mean that we are safe from harassment or that the spaces aren't extremely male-dominated. And if an oppressed group wanting their own space and complaining about their oppression is a hate group to you, look inwards.

I think the main reason is that your average working class person, even if they have the money to contribute to that, doesn't have the time and energy to get involved in politics. Looking at history, most people seem to be happy as long as they have food on the table, a roof over their heads, and some pretty basic rights, and only start to act when something big goes wrong, usually famines, but also things like plagues and cases of injustice that a lot of people hear & care about.

The reasons I think this doesn't happen:

  • most people don't have enough interest, time, energy
  • a lot of people don't have enough money to contribute
  • this would require lots of organization and connecting to others who agree with the idea
  • it'd probably be easy to get caught, and a lot of the time (especially in countries where corruption is widespread) poor people will get punished harsher than the ruling class.
  • even if you somehow were able to do this despite the points above, it still probably wouldn't be enough; the gap between the average and a billionare is incomprehensibly huge. Less than ten people have more wealth than half of the world's population.

Well, there really isn't a canine equivalent to what lions are compared to cats. Dogs are directly descended from wolves but cats are descended from African wildcats, not big cats.

I'm pretty sure that it was definitely not made by anyone who's a fisher.

That's what they want you to think!

In this economy‽

He read the rules of the community and decided to break them anyway.

It is not 'an elaborate troll group'. Women just want our own spaces on a male-dominated platform and to discuss without 10000 incels crawling out of the woodwork.

Can't wait to use it in only 1800+ years!

That's more like 3/4 roman

You brought a delicacy made from fruits that grow in a land none of them has ever heard of. That'd be pretty remarkable.

 

"b-but bears are actually dangerous!" Shut the hell up.

 
 

I'm talking about mainly third person narrators in fiction, like for example, "if you have felt/heard/seen X then...". What is it called?
