Of course if someone uses violence, you can use violence back. You’re arguing against a strawman.

Neither of the links seems to mention immigrants from intolerant countries, so I’m not sure how they’re relevant to the comment you’re replying to.
Okay, but what does this have to do with punching? No violence took place in this scenario.
For whatever reason, GIMP includes this image of a green pepper as a built-in brush.
But what even is a “gender expression” if not linked to sex? Why not just call it a personality trait?
I find it disappointing that everyone says how the Fediverse will allow all kinds of social media, personal blogs and other things to be interconnected, but in the end it kinda sorta works for Twitter clones and barely works for anything else.
In what settings is it socially acceptable to talk to strangers?
This comment is ironic considering that this article is exaggerating what Musk said.
The headline and article seems to be hugely misleading. According to this article, the $1 was only for food and he did it as a challenge, not out of necessity.
You literally said “instead of algorithms”, implying that algorithms would be replaced.
But SearxNG doesn’t have the nice features like bangs, redirects, changing the priority of domains, custom CSS, lenses, etc.
Kagi has clearly stated that the AI features will always be optional and the engine is designed to be useful without them.
Enropean cities also have “bad parts” despite having a completely different history.
The question said literally nothing about race. The racism is in your head.
First off, thank you for engaging critically with my comments rather than dismissing them :) I apologize for the delayed response, I had to sort my thoughts about this.
Basically, your brain thinking “no, don’t do creepy shit.”
But with your example, exercising rationality actually would help, because “the sadness that comes from seeing couples in public or among your friends and knowing that you’ll never experience what they’re doing” is actually an irrational thought.
Isn’t it kind of an example of what you stated in the previous paragraph? By acknowledging that women don’t see me as a potential partner, my brain is preventing me from hurting women by showing my romantic interest. While I could try to combat this thought, it would not be in the best interest of others.
On the contrary, wanting a partner is an irrational thought because it ultimately comes from the natural instinct to reproduce. Hypothetically, if I were asexual, I could just live a fulfilling life alone and everyone would be better off.
.com is for commercial sites (though many sites misuse it). Most Mastodon instances are not commercial.

I’d like to hear someone pronounce it as [stɹɛŋgθs] without choking.
If by “acting on them” you mean staring, catcalling, asking out, etc. I’m already trying my best to not do that. I’d say I’m quite successful at it, though in crowded spaces it’s often difficult to find a direction to look in that doesn’t contain a woman. And my mom sometimes tells me that I should look at and approach women, so there’s social pressure too.
However, what draws people to incel spaces is the sadness that comes from seeing couples in public or among your friends and knowing that you’ll never experience what they’re doing. Unless I’m misunderstanding, I don’t think what you’re suggesting helps with that.
Do you have any resources on that? All the ones I’ve found suggest that feelings of attraction are hard-wired into the brain and getting rid of them is impossible.
The bartender first peacefully told the Nazi to leave, and after the Nazi refused, the bartender threatened them with the bat, without actually using it. Do you really not see the difference from randomly punching someone on the street as you walk past them?
Or would you also say that there is no difference between a police officer threatening someone with a gun after they refuse arrest, versus immediately shooting them on sight?
