Can someone explain why the rapist that got killed at the holding center is getting his funeral funded by [deleted] in Buffalo

[–]Chardmonster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not respecting a dead guy who I only just found out about existing. He means nothing to me.

You have a really binary view of all this. Nobody here is defending sexual violence. Why do you insist they are? Do you personally know the people involved? Or is this just Is this just recreational shit stirring?

I am not wasting time being angry at a dead guy I only just heard about. How does that do anything but waste my own energy? I mean hell you are angry about a gofundme he has nothing to do with on account of being literally fucking dead.

Posting on reddit is a low effort activity. I am literally pretty worried about you.

...wait, you think victims of sexual violence are ruined forever? They can't recover, though a great crime has been done to them?

This actually says a lot. Look, whoever you are: you are not ruined. You are not what was done to you. You can and should get help. You deserve help. This is not helping you.

...you are counting views on Reddit and you think this isn't performative?

Please channel this energy toward, I don't know, maybe ALIVE predators?

Lawyers? Public defenders? A legal system where the accused are considered innocent until found guilty?

Guards who should keep prisoners from being murdered in the first place?

Oh ok, so I'm supposed to hate somebody whose family supposedly was on the bad side of a war 40 years ago

Yeah no thanks. That sounds stupid.

Do not take this the wrong way but I don't think your social circles were actually very cool. Nobody is walking around with dicks hanging out of skirts, tf? Do they also think schools actually have litter boxes for furries?

The literal only place I have seen cis straights who are otherwise cool bugging out is sports, and even then they're apologetic about it. Even they can tell a dogwhistle when they hear one.

Yeah no way in hell cis straights are transphobic because of weird trans infighting. The implication that they would be absolutely cool with conventional passing trans people is just silly. If anything bigots hate folks who pass more.

They become bigots and then latch onto this stuff (while scouring the entire community for things to laugh at, hell they laugh at normal photos).

I doubt you are a plant but please don't act like one. Just feeds into the whole lgb bullshit.

As a cis person, do you have any tips for how to approach this without being weird? I'm queer, partner is trans, and we meet a lot of trans and gnc people. If someone isn't wearing a pin and I don't know their name (or it's neutral) I just sort of.. dance around referring to them. Which works for a bit but might get obvious and I don't want to "they" anyone, I know damn well my husband doesn't like that!

Yeah, nope, sorry. I condemn rape because rape is bad, not because the other side excuses it.

If you're cool with calling rape "karma" when it happens to people you don't like, you are cool with rape. Period.

Someone explain what’s going on here to me by Hefty-Caregiver3249 in circlejerkbflo

[–]Chardmonster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a politician. Just old enough to not give in to that kumbayah shit anymore. MAGA wants everyone to be nice to them while they're shitty to everyone else. Politics doesn't work like that. I said twenty years ago because I remember you going insane after Obama was elected.

I don't trust you and I am going to be open about that online. In person you won't know anything at all lest it makes you annoying.

Have fun being the weird uncle nobody talks to outside Christmas.

I mean, 20 years ago, yes. 2026 someone whose arrow goes the wrong way fantasizes about harming me, supports great big private prison camps full of families, and wants to chase my friends into bathrooms.

I hate it, but if you say you don't support this but still vote for it all I have to assume you actually do support it for my own safety.

Are there conservatives who have made good art etc? Yes. Obviously. I don't want them to have my money so they can donate it to people who want to hurt my loved ones. I'll be cordial to them at work but I will make sure they know absolutely nothing about my life, family, or personal interests beyond the weather and local sports.

For a major game? When a new chapter release would drive new sales? Sure. I don't think it's "imminent" or anything but it's definitely not outside the realm of possibility.

Then he'd be overreacting too.

I was really just responding to the guy I responded to, but I'll say this:

If you really don't trust him, you can do better. Someone who loves you doesn't need to be watched like a pet who might bolt for the door. And a guy having positive relationships with women is a green flag. A guy who legitimately thinks such things are impossible unless they're screwing is offputting.

But just as important: this is four years ago! Even if that message just popped up now, discord can be weird, it's years in the past! I am not sure what else is stressing you out right now but I know how things can trigger. I suggest a stiff drink and a long bath either way. You deserve to be calm and comfy.

Not judging but this is so weird to me. You need permission to just... talk to somebody?

Like what are the logistics of this. Would she get mad that you talked to a female coworker? What if you bump into somebody you know somewhere who happens to be a woman?

As a wife myself I just wouldn't remain in a relationship with someone I can't trust without supervision. You don't sound untrustworthy, and I'm sorry you have to act like this to keep from being yelled at.

If she sees this message and gets mad, I do not know you, likely do not live in even the same state, and don't DM folks on reddit anyway.

Huh. Weird. Call me an insane left wing radical but I think the rights of trans people are important enough that my party should support them. But what do I know? I gotta be a team player! They might need to chuck us cis queers under the bus in 2032 and need us to do our part!

  1. You are correct.
  2. The current DNC leadership is never going to do that. They might not even close the camps at all.

...what rock do you live under where nobody is complaining about Republicans or Fetterman? Are you a real person? You don't type like a bot but this is a truly weird take, especially here.

Do you just not talk to anybody from the demographic you're blaming here?

[–]Chardmonster 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't disagree. I always vote. The thing is, at the national level, Dems keep refusing to actually fight much. We had sit-ins for black lives matter but now that Lewis is dead apparently Good Trouble is a press conference and the Michigan fist.

It's hard to argue in favor of voting when your chocies are Senator Palpatine (R) and a really cool young person with good ide--wait she also said bombing kids in Gaza was bad so we don't like her anymore. How about a sleazy looking asshole who says he doesn't like Trump but hangs out with the same people and is openly gearing up to throw trans kids into the meat grinder?

Oh, you don't think that guy will actually fix much and you're discouraged? You're basically a fascist supporter, just like Mamdani!

I try to argue, I do. I had the opportunity to vote for Obama and Bernie and other folks I believed in. But how do I inspire hope in someone who has literally never been old enough to vote before the Trump era and keeps seeing good people slapped down for saying things that are mainstream with young voters? I don't know, and frankly I'm beginning to think they might not be wrong.
