@RealityEnthusi2 You're making a mistake there in the first paragraph. What happened in a blink of an eye was that it *revealed* itself to the public. All this stuff in recent years, however, couldn't have happened if those governments, institutions, corporations, etc. weren't already colonized.

@men_are_human No need to go even that far. Notice how for womyn it's "healthy to discuss about sex life" (including bf's dick apparently) and "get tips [for] what works to orgasm", but then "locker room talk" is misogyny! Like @PhilMitchell83 likes to say: another day, another double standard
