7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

Worse, on her blog she conceived of herself as the chief consort in his harem in between sharing her thoughts on race science and Harry Potter house sorting quizzes.
I can forgive stealing billions, but I draw the line at being a Harry Potter adult.
What's the harm in a little bit of Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking?
If I say that's weird will someone from hexbear appear to tell me I'm kink shaming?
Nah it’s weird. Like it’s fine if the first part is your kink. It’s not even super rare, but firstly him? Secondly the race science. Thirdly, fuck y’all are bad at poly, like worse at poly than the people constantly talking about poly.
You are not kidding. I nearly forgot about this story and the absolutely gross and unethical sexual practice at work here. From the article linked earlier:
For those following along: if you browse the existing literature on poly practice, this uncompassionate practice doesn't show up anywhere. These animals were using the "poly" term as a fig-leaf for their Lord of the Flies inspired, libertine, thunderdome-style non-monogamy. I'd even hesitate to call it a cult, only because it just seems so incredibly unstable as a concept. These are the people your polycule will warn you about.
No wonder these people fleeced others for billions. There's having a skewed moral compass, and then there's having a huge vacuum where a conscience and empathy should be.
So polyamory, but fascist
Yeah I’ve been practicing hierarchical poly for years, all of my current relationships began polyamorous. Hierarchical relationships are fine, it’s far more of a “her and I are on the ‘move in and marry’ path, and you have a husband and kids, our relationship is obviously the less important for both of us” type deal. Ranked competitive nonmonogamy is fucking insane. Like, it seems like an amazing way to make yourself absolutely fucking miserable and to deny yourself the comforts of love while pretending to be pursuing more of it.
I really can’t grasp how someone decides to do this
Nah, as near as I can tell that group is vigorously in favor of suspending all human rights for capitalists, so regardless of their views on kink I think they'd be inclined to let the comment slide.
