This recent video from the YouTube channel Kurzgesagt sums it up well. We are evolutionarily honed to compete for all resources due to developing in a zero-sum world, whereas with modern civilization we live in a positive sum world where it is actually in your own selfish best interests for as much of the rest of human population as possible to be well off.
Kids being shot dead in classrooms? Horror and outrage. Babies being ripped limb from limb in the womb and PP ghouls haggling over the price for body parts?
But Planned Parenthood!! Anyone else notice how the shitstains bringing up abortion are basically saying "you lefties get to murder children, so fuck off and let us gunwankers murder children too?"
They’re fine with letting children starve to death or die of easily treatable diseases. What difference does it make if it’s gun violence? I wouldn’t be surprised that they would get an abortion too, as long as it was secret. They don’t want the neighbors to know their daughter got knocked up.
The only real question is Whats stupider America or Americans? I'm yet to figure this out. Left right, repub or democrat there isn't much difference. Almost equal incompetence. And thats no different from pretty much anywhere,...
True dat. The UK has its chavs. At the moment, the chavs have the loudest voices in the U.S., but there's a pendulum. It will swing back. I'm mindful of what your man le Carré said in the lead-up to Bush War II: https://www.commondreams.org/views03/0115-01.htm The old lion's even angrier now. Or, as McCoy said to Spock, "I've found that evil usually triumphs - unless good is very, very careful." We are being careful.
Gun violence is the form of death Jesus smiles down on. Even though guns aren't in the Bible, and there are pro-abortion passages in the Bible. What brilliant theologian squared this circle? No one. There's no argument. It's not even there. Seriously, go digging for it, I'm that confident you won't find it. Doesn't their side feel stupid for not even having an argument to defend their key core beliefs? You'd think, wouldn't you? Nope. Nothing makes them ashamed. No combination of words I've been able to find. They've devoted their life to a joke, and it doesn't phase them.
Sorry, but that's some high-level white nonsense right here. Just because you don't notice a difference doesn't mean there aren't poorer, more vulnerable communities getting fucked hard when a party full of petty fake-Christian assholes comes into power. Go ahead, tell a trans person there isn't much difference. Or some sick kid that's been detained by ICE. Or a poor teenager that needs an abortion.
Don't get me wrong: I'm pro-choice, but if the kid's a teenager isn't that a little too late to abort them?
That's one thing I can genuinely commend Sarah Palin about is practicing what she preached. I remember an interview where she did admit to having to reassess her views in light of her last pregnancy and knowing what could be in store. She could have easily have pressured Bristol into getting an abortion shortly after, the way I'm sure it's happened with other politicians in the past. It's only a shame she doesn't realize that people deserve to have the same ability to choose that she and her dumbass daughter had.
How the fuck can you even type that in all sincerity after you lived through Brexit? Jesus Christ, you're not this fucking stupid. I know you love to hate 'Murica, but yes, there are a lot of differences. The biggest ones being that the GOP supports measures that hurt anyone that isn't a cis, straight white male with more than $100k in the bank.
Given Dan has espoused such sentiments in the past and likes to laugh at stupid Muricans as literally half his country voted to leave the EU over foreigners, I highly doubt it.
I was specifically commenting on laaaaaaate term abortions and teenagers (yes @Ten Lubak make your stupid joke) you guys are too serious sometimes. Yes WF idiots, make your other stupid joke about me taking the internet too seriously. In other words, whoosh.
I have it on good authority that my coworker is the Easter bunny. I’ve never seen him and the Easter Bunny in the same room at the same time, just saying.
Pffft. They tried to tell me that about playing with myself, and that worked out just fine. Just fine.
Well, the GOP is fucked up on policy, and the Dems are fuck-ups when it comes to getting elected. So in some sense they are equally incompetent, but in different ways.
