this regards @jimmy_dore´s recent commentary on a particular @postmates commercial. 🫤
the ad perpetuates the ignorant fallacy & profoundly damaging myth that "sεχ between men = αηαl s∈× & αηαl s∈× = sεχ between men";
1/📜
that an act most folks (male, female, LGB and hetero among us) find inherently off-putting is a necessary or predominant or inordinately prevalent component of sεχ between men.

(↝ i say this as an LGB♀ who researches for & writes LGB♂ characters – for a gay man´s perspective on the matter, check out actor/comedian @stephenfry & his documentary called _out there_ ↬ , specifically at 1:20:34)

so i´m very disappointed that you´ve made no mention of it in the @postmates commentary.....you really need to.
and i tend to think that such an egregious thing as this, must be more than a vignette in the prequel to _idiocracy_,
5/📜
more than a smarmy sales-pitch coming from an ignorant & incurious society´s myths & misconceptions about what it is to be a gay/bi man, what goes on between gay/bi men.....i tend to think it could very well be a psy-op.

further divide & conquer, expand & deepen the rift between the righties/religies/qonservatives/qrazies & LGB people, not only by further falsely associating gay men with this type of sex act, but by reeeally making it *in your face*,

further inflaming the misdirected anger of those who´ve the false notion that there´s such a thing as "the 'LGBT' agenda".
8/📜
the only folks who should be associated with βμ₥ s∈×, are ones who go ´round extolling its alleged virtues! (and yes, i actually have met a few who on occasion have done that and nope, they aren´t LGB.)

they´re getting poisoned with drugs used for chemical castration and “groomed” (← yeah there ya go, there´s an actual appropriate context for & proper usage of that word) for future mutilating-desensitizing-sterilizing surgeries...
Recently a man of much wealth and so undue power & influence, @elonmusk, made a bizarre, senseless attempt to malign a drug, #BUPROPION (aka Wellbutrin/Zyban), which continues to profoundly benefit the lives, the functioning, of myself & others.

The potential implications of this must be addressed.
Of all the drugs on the market — some easy to get as candy (alcohol, cigarettes, vaping), others blithely prescribed, often irresponsibly (opioids, broad-spectrum anti-biotics) &

in some cases even seemingly maliciously (opioids, anti-psychotics) — why would he pick one that´s been in use since the ´80s, never had any controversy, helps a lot of people lose weight, and helps a lot of us THINK, PERCEIVE, COMMUNICATE, LEARN, and MOVE ABOUT.
