Yes, I'm aware I can curse on the internet - it's not my first day here. I use the exact words I mean to use, and I'm more a fan of the precision F-strike than indiscriminately carpet-bombing the place with "fucks". Stop word-policing me (and others).

Edited to add alt text.

Yeah, this went over about as well as expected. And the irony and hypocrisy of the free speech absolutists coming out of the woodwork to tell us all what we can and can't say is not lost on me.

When I was at school they enforced a rule that hair must be no shorter than 1cm. Naturally the rule was bullshit, and naturally the kids rebelled in various risque ways to assert their individuality against it.

Detentions were handed out, parents got involved, a big hoo-ha over absolutely nothing. But, our school had one of the lowest cases of drug-use compared to neighboring schools.

The kids were too busy rebelling against an obviously unjust rule, that they didn't bother to rebel the more traditional way through sex and drugs.

There is zero reason kids wouldn't rebel against multiple things at the same time.

People are easily distracted and tend to focus only on one immediate crisis instead of all of them. It's how conservatives chip away at power from all sides

Kids often rebel against something by rebelling against something else at the same time. Rebellious haircuts, underground music, custom clothes alterations, and drugs all go together for example.

My understanding is that one thing tends to lead to another and that compounds, rather than all of them immediately happening at once. There's a "gateway" act which can lead to the others
