    When the French did this it was also extremely bad for their country and lead to a horrible power vacuum. Shouldn’t let history repeat itself.

      Right, but as a counterpoint. The French weren’t facing certain global annihilation brought on by Megacorporations who convinced every person in the world to voluntarily spy on themselves for the last 2 decades in order to amass more power, wealth and influence than every individual country in the world. Those, whose mere existence has accelerated global warming to the point that the purposeful act of ecocide has become their main goal, after they force us into world war 3, strip mine the globe for resources in order to fuck off and terraform Mars. All to live out a South African-Apartheidist-with-a-botched-penis-implant’s grandfather’s wet dream of enslaving humanity into a technocratic hellscape before Larping the provably erroneous Ugenix “hypothesis” of hyper-diffusion. So, you know, maybe give The French Revolution a break?

    it’s obvious who’s the female and who’s the male in this partnership

    Edit: Because of the holes!
    Edit2: I hope the downvotes are because of wary lurkers wondering if I’m misgendering inanimate objects, and not because the joke was bad.

      I don’t think the downvotes are because you’re misgendering them. It’s just baffling why you’ve gendered them at all. It’s unfunny and out of place.

          Yeah. I see the joke you were trying to make. So the bottle is a boy because??? And the the guillotine is a girl because???

          Just need you to explain it a little further.

            penis inserts into things, hence the bottle – vagina takes things, hence the guillotine

              Ohhhhhh I think I get it now. Pennis = man, vagina = girl. Heteronormative and trans exclusionary; how spicy 🌶️.
