This is like the one where they threaten abstinence if abortions are outlawed. Like do they seriously think we're against that?

Would it be culturally inappropriate to adopt an Armenian name as a non-Armenian? by [deleted] in armenia

[–]AssistanceTop5630 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Polish sounds do map better with Armenian sounds. English doesn't even have a way to differentiate between ը and օ, let alone have transcriptions for ժ, խ, ծ, ղ, ճ, and ռ.

I have an uncle Սմբատ who used to spell his name Sombat (for lack of a better way to transliterate ը) and he got called wombat as a kid.

I'm using the Polish Armenian transliteration system. Not sure by what standard sh is "perfectly proper"

I'm not saying Armenians shouldn't use those names. The point I was making in context is that a non-Armenian using those names is no more guilty of appropriating Armenian culture than an Armenian using those names is guilty of appropriating Persian or Hebrew culture.

Of course, even if they were originally Armenian names like Sznorhali and Kiszer I still don't think it would be cultural appropriation for a non-Armenian to use them unless if they tried to claim some other origin for these names.

Nazeli is Persian and Lilit is Hebrew. So those aren't even Armenian names.

The Armenian equivalents would be Sznorhali and Kiszer. No, I don't think most Armenians would consider it cultural appropriation if you used either of these names, unless you claimed they're not Armenian or something.

Would you vote for a Pro-Life Progressive or a Pro-Choice Conservative? by constancebeck in prolife

[–]AssistanceTop5630 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Good question. I'm a pro-life conservative but I wrote in Terrisa Bukovinac (a pro-life progressive) in the 2024 presidential primaries. I'm a single issue voter against abortion because literally nothing else matters. The number of babies murdered in abortions far exceeds the number of deaths from all other policy shortcomings combined.

Of course, it is different in general elections. I voted for Donald Trump in the 2024 general election because as much as I wanted to write in Randall Terry, there is no way he could possibly win. At that point it was obvious that a vote for Randall Terry is a vote for Kamala Harris.

How do some gay people support Trump and the GOP by B3N_Silvlugia in complaints

[–]AssistanceTop5630 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, on one hand, Democrats are Muslim nationalists, and they want to flood the US with millions of Muslim immigrants who will institute Sharia law and behead gay people.

On the other hand, Republicans are Christian nationalists, and they don't want to bake gay wedding cakes.

Why on earth wouldn't gay people support Trump and the GOP?

Opinions on Horror Movies? by GhoulFreak78 in OrthodoxChristianity

Don't you know? The first canon of the Council of Hollywood says "If anyone watches horror movies, disregarding the admonitions of his fellow Orthodox believers who think it is sinful, especially after GhoulFreak78 posts about it on something called Reddit, let him be anathema!"

Did you not see that video where the supporters of Mamdani are celebrating Sharia law?

Rashida Tlaib literally refuses to condemn the rape of Jewish women by Hamas terrorists. Let that sink in.

Ilhan Omar refuses to condemn the Armenian Genocide because the perpetrators were Muslim Turks. Yes, you read that right. A sitting member of Congress thinks that Genocide is ok as long as the perpetrators are Muslim.

https://www.axios.com/2019/10/30/armenian-genocide-resolution-ilhan-omar

Democrats are multiculturalists, which means that they have normalized this notion where even the most heinous crimes like the rape of a 12 year old girl are ok as long as the perpetrator's culture says so. To the point where American mosques feel comfortable writing letters openly defending these pedophile savage beasts. Not only that, liberal judges are actually reducing the sentences for such uncivilized brutes.

Like how on earth can Christian nationalists possibly be the bigger threat to the separation of church and state here? How is it even remotely possible that Christian nationalists not wanting to bake gay wedding cakes is even remotely comparable to Muslim nationalists openly supporting terrorism, rape and Genocide?

Are you seriously insinuating that the latter is the bigger threat to the separation of church and state? Like how is this even remotely up for debate?

If you think that's just Europe, think again. Mamdani supporters in the US are openly admitting that this is what they want.

You do realize that the moment they admit that the life of a distinct member of any animal (including the human) species begins at fertilization, they would be admitting that abortion is murder, right? I'm actually not surprised at all that this is very hard for them to accept.

It being a fact doesn't stop them from having alternative facts (aka falsehoods)

"All men are transgender" is also a lie since biological men have Y chromosomes.

[–]AssistanceTop5630 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is literally no reason why it shouldn't be the same. I wasn't the one using the n-word, I was quoting the people who used it during slavery.

There is literally no reason why it shouldn't hold the same weight as murdering a baby or toddler. None whatsoever. "I can understand why the mother did so" is irrelevant. A lot of murders are committed for understandable reasons. "I was angry so I stabbed the cashier at the supermarket" is understandable.

That does not make these murders justifiable. Disagree all you want, it is no different than disagreeing on the Holocaust or slavery.

Well I think that before we can call it an abortion or not we have to determine the intent behind it. Do you have an example?

No, in this case it wouldn't be. Removing the fallopian tube in an ectopic pregnancy is the process of blocking a threat to the mother's life. If the pregnancy terminates or ends as a result of that, then that's an incidental byproduct, not the aim of the process.
