What I mean is, if people want to talk about power dynamics fine, but its straight away talking about something other than age because inequality is not generally a function of age as such. And otherwise, the 'discourse' is usually just moralism, ie imposing your own values and fantasies on others

Age gap ‘discourse’ is just cheap moralism. Vapid self-righteousness is like the zoomer internet brainrot equivalent of boomers howling about immigrants

It did not. People in the 70s had much higher lead exposures and a society that was both more complex and more precarious, and it didn’t collapse. And actually Rome didn’t collapse in the time period of especially high exposure either, it went on for several hundred years afterwards

In Australia after the massive bushfires a few years back, the right wing /mainstream narrative afterwards was that it wasn’t the fault of climate change, but rather of green environmentalists preserving forests too much and thus creating more dangerous fires

A crush is a kind of fantasy (in that you idealise someone, imagine how your life could be with them, etc). You destroy the fantasy by exposing it to reality/action, in this case expressing your feelings honestly to the person. If it works out then great, if it doesn’t then it’ll be easier to reorient yourself and you’ll find someone new to crush on.

So instead of investigating them he just decided to believe any bullshit they told him no matter how absurd. Nice one Jimmy.

tricking someone is a sure fire way to piss them off, right up there with just insulting them. Never an effective strategy imo
