A underrated moral panic is the UK government's deep and enduring hatred of ninjitsu. From the days of video nastys banning nunchucks and shuriken from the media but not touching depictions of any type of weapon people actually have or use to Keir Starmer promising to ban ninja swords to solve knife crime, famously committed primarily with replica Japanese swords, forever. There are still presumably people with ASBOs for pretending to be Naruto in 2004, when Tony Blair executed a raid on the servers hosting Real Ultimate Power and declared once and for all that Britain will not stand for dishonorable stealth combat no matter how many shadow warriors are sent by Brussels

refusing to apply first aid to the wound because "it shouldn't have happened in the first place, so what we really should be doing is making sure no one gets stabbed ever again"

"Who would want to kill the thing that makes maps like this?"
Baru would. Because she would never share this world with Tain Hu. She would never point from a ship's mast and say, See that mountain? I've named it for you.

hating is fun but sometimes you see someone only ever be a hater and never a lover and it's like. ok well do you like anything at all or do you only see the world in shades of bad to worse

i actually ran into this recently off tumblr and it really took me back lol. i've been reading the shardlake series by cj sansom, they're mystery novels set in the tudor period. sansom clearly liked to contrast our contemporary understanding of the world with the period's typical philosophies and worldviews. shardlake is himself is very outspoken about how important it is for girls to get an education, for example, but is he a feminist, or even a proto-feminist? no, of course not.
he wants women to be more educated because it makes them more interesting for him to talk to, and because he's religious and education = reading and studying the bible. he wants all people to have the word of god, and that includes women; he wants to have interesting conversations with all people, and that includes women.
sansom is honestly probably the most talented writer of 'benign' sexism i've ever come across; it's really impressive how the books never let shardlake off the hook for his attitudes, and even subtly make fun of him for them, while always feeling period. sansom himself clearly thinks women are equal to men in every way, but he's not interested in 'convincing' the reader or vindicating an opinion that should be self-evident.
anyway a review of the later novels noted how shardlake works with a lot of different people in his investigations, and a recurrent theme is how he's suspicious of his friend's romantic interests, disliking these women until they eventually win him over. the review said something along the lines of, cj sansom you really can't keep repeating this trend, people are going to wonder what it means.
i could not understand for the life of me what this review meant? i reread it multiple times and kept thinking about it. what it means? what it means when a sexist initially dislikes women? that seems pretty obvious?
and then i realized that this person didn't see that trend as evidence of shardlake's clear and ready sexism. they were saying the guy -- who talks constantly about how sad he is that he can't get married, how beautiful it is when intelligent women laugh, how fantastic it is that women talk to someone as ugly as him -- is gay and jealous of his friend's wives and girlfriends.
Girl. You know I love your theories about queer coding in television. But some times those two male characters are stood that close bc they need to get them both in the frame .

PENANCE eliza clark Simon welcomed me in himself, and I was genuinely surprised that a member of staff had not seen to me. As if reading my mind, he said, "No butler, I'm afraid." Then he told me that he had a cleaner come twice a week, and a gardener, but he found employing 's staff' a tad vukger in this day and age. that surprised me cominf from a man who had once written a Daily Mail article titled: 'Why Should I Be Embarrassed About Having More Than One Cleaner?'

thanks for the comments and asks saying i'm being mean for very mildly saying i don't like when people make social decisions based on horoscopes.
your behavior has made me realize i should be "meaner": horoscopes are fake.
the position of planets and balls of gas did not in any way impact your personality or destiny. it has nothing to do with what kind of people you are compatible with, despite what an app or magazine told you.
i think sincere belief in horoscopes shows a concerning propensity to trust pseudoscience and a susceptibility to confirmation bias.
i'm pretty tired of having to tiptoe around this kind of thing and include disclaimers. if you genuinely think you shouldn't be friends with someone because of the date they came out of a uterus, you're being a clown.
