 [[:Gendering]] "Don't we have better problems?" = "The problem is too insignificant to deserve attention" to which I would respond "If you feel so". Apparently there are quite a few people who care about it, and language is one of the many ways in which oppressive gender roles are hardcoded into our society. Removing them at the very least cannot and does not hurt.
+[[:Over-Apologization]] Distraction or virtue signalling method with mostly empty (almost insincere, as in they don't really care about it) apologies I have a hard time believing that they don't realize are unnecessary. Alternatively, an appeasement method (during conflict/stress).

+====== Jon Stewart ======
+On Trump accusing other countries of being mean to the USA: [[https://youtu.be/zBflZLStKQg?t=1050|"But we continue to blame everybody else in the world that we designed and policed after World War II. We're the richest country in the world ever. We're not the world's victims. If we have inequalities in this country, that's on us. It's not a supply problem. It's not unfair trade for the most part. It's an investment and distribution problem. It's our [BLEEP] fault. And I'm not saying we can't make adjustments and renegotiate things, but it didn't have to be this reckless."]]
+On [[Social Media]]: [[https://youtu.be/sNMdRzK9Nj0?t=927|It's speech incentivized for engagement and profit. It's manipulated. [...] Social media is a machine designed to stimulate the reptilian parts of your brain that would otherwise beg you to ..go outside...!. It's like being impressed that casinos give out free food - it's not free."]]
+On the war in Ukraine: [[https://youtu.be/OeUZI5RnYGg?t=866|"Hitler wanted to end the war, just not the way it ended. You're pretending that we have no other options. [...] But in your little zero-sum formulation, you are correct. Total capitulation by Ukraine, loss of all their mineral wealth and no security guarantees is still better than World War III-- for now. But you know, everything sounds better if the only other option you're presenting us is World War III."]]
