What is a pension? /s

But also, no. No one should be forced to endure this world just to keep pensions going.

I get the feeling you haven't interacted with any trans people. Or taken any time to listen to their stories. You should really broaden your understanding.

The bigoted propaganda has worked well on you. Say hi to JK Rowling at the next meeting.

Some parents are just bigots. Some are brainwashed by religion. Some are just afraid and/or angry about anything they don't understand. If a kid isn't telling their parents, there is probably a VERY good reason. Kids get beaten. Kids get kicked out of their homes. Kids get sent to conversion camps. Parents can be just as terrible as anyone else.

There are a lot of parents that are not supportive of their children. Especially if they fall on the LGBTQ+ spectrum. This puts kids at risk. This will harm children.

This sure seems like a step towards a personhood bill. Which is exactly what Republicans want

Thanks for regurgitating InfoWars talking points. Alex Jones would be proud.

It's because they listen to Alex Jones. Everything they said is an InfoWars talking point.

You're vastly overestimating the US military's ability to deal with an insurgency. Did we quickly "win" in Iraq? Did we quickly "win" in Afghanistan? There may be some quick quelling of fighting, but we've proven to be terrible at managing insurgencies.

And there's the matter of just how many guns are present in the US. We have more guns than people. Over 400 million guns and growing. There are times where a lone gunman in Afghanistan was able to occupy an outpost for hours just by taking a few shots, moving position, taking a couple more shots, and then leaving.

Any civil war will be long, messy, and involve a LOT of different factions.

It always strikes me as interesting that if the Bible truly was divinely inspired that there really should only be one translation and one interpretation. It should be incredibly clear and concise to everyone.

I am very ok with Trump encouraging behavior that could kill his followers. I hope they take his advice and go even if they're very sick with COVID.

With he amount of consent involved in kink, I imagine MAGA supporters would be pretty shitty doms and subs. They don't seem to understand or care about consent.

I wish there was a way to harness their hate and direct it against their god-king, Trump. Get them to destroy their entire movement and fracture into a million, feckless pieces.

Dan Olson and Cody Johnston are absolute treasures

That came up on Alex Jones recently. So, uh, sorry, your sister is likely listening to InfoWars or something adjacent. My condolences.

I wouldn't be so sure about humanity surviving. It all depends on how many tipping points we hit and how bad warming actually gets. There's no way we stop at 3°. Existence for any humans will be incredibly fraught.

Oh, you mean the people who quoted Hitler? - https://apnews.com/article/moms-for-liberty-adolf-hitler-newsletter-quote-bcce698e901b9e782970030ccd710512

Yeah, they're real model citizens.

The ones holding up the process aren't really siding with Democrats, they're just against theit own party's nominees for various reasons. It's an important distinction.

It may not be your intention, but this comment feels like it's blaming Democrats for not going along when Republicans have the majority and keep failing to put someone up that they can all agree on. Several Republicans have been pushing the narrative that Democrats are to blame for their own party's disfunction.

It gets even better when you realize the US hasn't actually formally declared war since WWII. We don't do "war" anymore. But we still kill a helluva lot of people. Mostly civilians.
