Now do Trump.

I mean otters rape baby seals to death and animals regularly eat each other alive slowly but I get the point.

You can’t park there mate

This whole thing just reminds me of Fahrenheit 451.

The main character Guy Montague was being chased by the police but they couldn’t find him so they shot down an innocent person that they labeled the suspect so the populace wouldn’t see the police as incompetent.

People always bring up 1984 but they need to read and bring up Fahrenheit 451.

“Unexpectedly”

I’m just bringing up the double standard. You’re correct in your assumption that I don’t want ANY genitals being mutilated.

But it’s not patriarchal that circumcision is normalized for aesthetical reasons. Women circumcise their sons because they don’t like uncut penises. I’ve NEVER heard a man say anything like that outside of not wanting their child to feel different because other boys are all circumcised. Women do it for aesthetics. Men do it because of a fear of being different. There’s a difference.

It shouldn’t be done at all but the idea that uncut penises look gross is inherently a woman thing.

It’s ironic because the whole reason I’m even here on lemmy is because I was permabanned from reddit for telling someone to crawl back in their hole because they were defending circumcision while claiming female genital mutilation was abhorrent. As if mutilating a penis is perfectly fine but don’t dare mutilate a vulva.

I know this isn’t the main topic here but it just reminds me that body shaming men is okay but body shaming women isn’t. Especially when it comes to sex organs.

Yeah every concert/event I’ve ever been to the men willingly let women use men’s bathrooms because the women’s bathroom line is 4 times longer than the men’s.

I was recently talking to my boss about some storms that were coming through. I said there were tornado watches in place. He said “Yeah but how common are tornadoes in ohio?”. I replied “I’ve driven through two in the past 3 years.”

I think he finally understood climate change meant weather change.

But it’s not just on my behalf? It’s on theirs and literally everyone else’s behalf.

They’re willingly getting out of the way to protect their own. Disregarding everyone who will be harmed by doing so.

That should be seen and treated as cowardice.

He only did that to make himself look good. He was the one who originally popularized banning it in the first place.

Imo if that’s all it takes to make you quit you shouldn’t have had the position in the first place.

Edit: I’d love to hear people’s thoughts on this. How is this not seen as pure cowardice? Is this not purely caving in to authoritative practice?

Protecting yourself at everyone else’s expense is exactly what fascists want. They want you so terrified of consequence that you just give up entirely. Fuck that. And fuck everyone who bends the knee or caves in to threats.

ICE shows up at my home or place of work

“A massive oil spill in the gulf of mexico could cast a dark shadow on fossil fuel expansion”

Humans are fucking stupid and I hate having to share this planet with y’all

It’s undeniable.

Watching the news networks owned by our new oligarchs do everything they can to not acknowledge that they’re Nazis is gold medal Olympics propaganda.

It’d be astounding if it wasn’t so fuckin sad.

You can do both. I never go to Starbucks but will gladly make a detour just to piss on the flowerbeds.

So what I’m hearing is people need to start pissing and shitting on the building itself.

Sorry I’m a conservative so if it helps black people it’s the devils work

I wish I could make the /S bigger here

When peaceful protest is ignored or violently stopped, what other choice is there but to react violently?

Protest is the alternative to revolution. When protest goes ignored just so the powerful can retain their power, violence is the only remaining solution.

History tells us this time and time again.
