        Haha yeah no way that dude was joking given the rest of his trash. That whole subreddit is a cognitohazard.

        You know you can disregard a MFer when they think Shakespeare is str8 outta ancient history. You know you can disregard a MFer if he thinks men acting in women-coded roles has shit to do with trans stuff. You know you can disregard a MFer if he thinks American opinions are remotely relevant to the linked OP story let ALONE in Shakespeare’s time (you know, in ancient history.)

        And you know you can disregard all these MFers who think Shakespeare is some high brow white culture that must be protected. Even if I weren’t interested in human liberation and socialism and shit… I’d still want to throw all the bad take havers in the linked reddit thread into an industrial woodchipper.

        In fact imagine how fkn embarrassing the lumpen proles must be to “educated” white supremacists.

        There is a reason sf Debris in his trek reviews has a counter called “ancient chinese secret” for when a character calls something decidedly not ancient, ancient. This includes car keys, fucking car keys.

        People don’t know what ancient means and it upsets me deeply
