If you are attempting to eat soup with them, then I'd tend to agree.
For solid foods of the type commonly consumed with chopsticks, I don't find them to be problematic.
But, then, I'm open to experiencing new and different things...

I'm not particularly coordinated but seem to have no trouble with this. I'm always amazed the number of adults incapable of operating these simple tools.

^ You are one weird dude. Never would have occurred to me to look for video tutorials on how to eat rice.
By comparison, I really enjoy watching this dude:
Are you offended by aluminum beverage cans with modern-style tabs because they are somehow inferior to the old-style pull tabs, or because you preferred the even-older cans which you had to pierce with a tool?

Newly-hired Saturday Night Live cast member Shane Gillis has been dropped before the start of the season, following outcry over his past use of a racial slur.

Jesus, I honestly assumed that was a gag. But nope, it's part of a 13 page module from MonteCook Games entitled "Consent in Gaming."
I've uploaded a PDF of the whole thing here in case anyone is interested to see just how deep this rabbit hole goes.
From fending off an attack by bloodthirsty pirates to delving into dank caverns, roleplaying games allow you to explore and experience things you probably don’t want to face in real life—or to approach topics from the perspective of characters who may be very different than your actual self. This shared experience is intended to be fun for all involved, but RPGs can put characters in life-or-death crises, intense emotional situations, or traumatic environments. Whether it’s body horror in a scary game, violence against children or animals in a fantasy world, flirty, romantic, or sexual relationships in any setting—or numerous other challenging scenarios—the line between fun and awkward, difficult, or downright unpleasant can be difficult to identify, and varies dramatically from player to player.
Mature or controversial elements can and should be a part of many RPGs. But how do you know what topics to include or leave out of your games? How do you include potentially difficult elements while ensuring that nobody’s game night is ruined? Consent in Gaming gives you the strategies you need to make sure everyone at the table has a great experience, even when the game goes in a challenging direction.

There is a new word invented to belittle Caucasian men I just read in one of brainy's links. The more I read from leftists the blacker and Blacker I believe their hearts to be. It really is the ***** belittling the Jews, their values, their culture, all over again. It is just whites and males that are the target this time.

Braineack is offended by the fact that Merriam-Webster has officially recognized the word they in the sense of being "used to refer to a single person whose gender identity is nonbinary," as this augurs the further decay of his straight, white, cisgendered utopia.
