Bullies and their ilk have the same concerns as anyone else, even if they don't follow the social contract the same way as others. They care about their appearance, their relationships, even if it's in a warped narcissistic way they all have a place to hit below the belt.
Call them fat, question their sexuality, make them feel weak or small or alone, each of these is little more than a different way of hurting another person, there is no conviction of belief in these statements.
I'm saying the content of what is used is not my concern in these situations, only that pain is dealt in a way that has a favorable outcome. Violence with words has a place in society for all of the knowable past and foreseeable future, but in my opinion should only be used for utilitarian retribution in a way that promotes peace and harmony (such as getting that person to leave the altercation).
Now with everyone on the internet everything is a public place, it's new to society in general and people sometimes don't realise they're being watched and listened to not just by their personal relations, but any number of strangers ready to jump in the line of fire and get their feelings hurt. With all that said I'm done with the topic, internet strangers don't get to police the morality of my private speech and if I ever say anything untoward to someone I actually know, I'll make amends to them only.
I don't think about it as normalizing because I view these kinds of words as weapons, you don't go spraying them in public like a psycho, they need to be saved for someone especially deserving and ideally without an audience.
It's unfortunate that the horrible people of this world are still people, and have all the same insecurities as any innocent person, but that won't stop me from using the tools at my disposal.
I mean this is only a society wide issue when dealing with the social media panopticon.
If you are for example dealing with a bully in person, they don't respond to the pressures of society correctly, attacking any of their insecurities is fair game if it will correct the behaviour or otherwise keep them away.
Who the hell would think "oh no, there's someone across the globe that might have a hurt feeling if they knew about this private conversation"?
I get what this picture is saying, but I'd like to point out this is an issue that was never a problem outside of celebrity before the turn of the millennium. I say if used in defence with private issues, use whatever works if the collateral damage is only imagined people, just don't make hating a part of your identity.
I don't count being polite in public small talk, I mean things like being at a party where you don't know anybody, work events, ceremonial events, those kinds of small, short hells.
Talking random bullshit with someone you know well is great, performative socially masked pleasantries specifically chosen for their generality, and uncontroversial nature is immensely draining emotionally and mentally.
The movie has a couple good bits, it's only real crime is being a little boring. It's definitely overblown in it's legend of being bad, Biodome for instance made me viscerally angry in a way this movie never could.
Any regulator specifically exists to counter these forces, so any regulatory capture is the most devastating to society as it opens entire industries to corruption. For some reason capitalists think foxes know the most about chickens, so surely they should be in charge of the henhouse.
Libertarianism is a lie for people that want a high trust society without putting in any of the effort and cooperation that it requires. For people who expect things to naturally work while still saying "fuck you got mine".
Find something you love to make your goal in life.
Only finding motivation in stressors to escape rather than something to move towards will burn you out and drive you to the depths of depression, even if you're successful at it.
I can tell you as someone born and raised here, oil money has led this place to become a mecca for every dumb asshole across Canada to forgo further education and try to get rich quick. The majority will crash and burn and the rest will retire in Kelowna.

These are catgirls that abuse themselves

I get the feeling the man from Paraguay will get her out of it, and season 2 will follow a Locutus of Borg recovery type of storyline.

Metric and The Tea Party are both pretty good for alt rock, although I'm bored to death of the one or two songs each get on the radio.
