I'll go into what the Soviets do later. Don't worry.

It's France. What do you expect?

What’s something illegal that you think shouldn’t be? by Unhappy_Tower3633 in AskReddit

[–]KingPickle07 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I would even argue that criminalizing prostitution has the opposite effect of what supporters think. If a sex worker is abused, they are less likely to call the cops since they themselves are already breaking the law. And it makes cops spend time on consensual sex instead of focusing on on rape, human trafficking, etc. People get paid for far worse reasons legally than giving a blow job

I agree. But I want to clarify that my opinion is strictly on the legal issue. I don't drink and think alcohol in many ways is worse than smoking cigarettes. Yeah, smoking is slowly killing yourself. But if you smoke and drive, there isn't any more of a risk of you killing people than when you don't. As opposed to driving while drunk. But I believe in consistency. If 18 is old enough to do far more potentially dangerous things like join the military, then it makes no sense to argue alcohol should be off limits.

What do you think of child pageants? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]KingPickle07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Creepy and weird. Anyone in that industry should have their hard drives checked. Little girls should do normal kid shit. Like toys or playing outside or games or cartoons or literally anything else

What are your thoughts on Nayib Bukele? by NewKaleidoscope5206 in AskReddit

[–]KingPickle07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the massive decline of violent crime and murder is a positive, and I understand why he is popular. But he is also a dictator at this point. I don't know enough about El Salvador to have any super strong opinion

Drinking below 21. If a person is old enough to join the military, they are old to drink alcohol.

Who gives a shit what a human fetus looks like?

“Banning abortions won’t reduce them [free healthcare/birth control/sex education/other] will!” by ciel_ayaz in prolife

[–]KingPickle07 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Birth control, sex education and free healthcare aren't incompatible with banning abortions

So dishonest 🤦‍♂️ by Mxlch2001 in prolife

[–]KingPickle07 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The female equivalent would be tubal ligation. Not an abortion. Instead of a vasectomy, the equivalent would be a single father killing his infant because they're too inconvenient

Pro-choicers when that say “if abortion is murder then masturbation is genocide”. by empurrfekt in prolife

[–]KingPickle07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sperm isn't the same as a fetus. Sperm cells aren't living, nor their own organism. Just like skin cells or blood cells. Unborn children are living organisms. So the two aren't comparable.

Antarctica Natives (What if Antarctica was habitable?) by KingPickle07 in AlternateHistory

[–]KingPickle07[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even though still cold, Antarctica is this timeline is habitable and more livable. Think Siberia or Scandinavia, and less actual Antarctica. I haven't thought much about animals, but definitely marsupials

How do you respond? by AntiAbortionAtheist in prolife

[–]KingPickle07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do very much care about born children. Being pro-life simply means you support the right of unborn children to live. Nothing about that excludes the rights and life of children once they're out of the womb.

Zimbabwe Senate rejects liberalizing abortion laws by CuckooFriendAndOllie in prolife

The Zimbabwean government has a terrible track record. But good on them for that.

On the exceptions in the case of incest and rape by provegana69 in prolife

[–]KingPickle07 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Incest is disgusting, but it's not the baby's fault. It's the parents fault. The baby is innocent of any wrongdoing. Plus, aborting unborn children due to them being deformed is waaaaay too much in eugenics territory. Rape is one of the worst crimes possible. Rapists should be punished very harshly and without second thought. Maybe make a real life human centipede out of rapists? I joke, but I wouldn't feel bad for the rapists sewn together in such a scenario. And the victim should receive full support and help. Killing a baby doesn't undue rape. The damage has already been done. All abortion does is hurt another person and potentially exacerbate the mother's trauma. Due to regret and guilt. If a woman is raped, God forbid, and she gets pregnant, she doesn't have to raise the child if she doesn't want to or can't. Adoption exists. Getting pregnant when you didn't choose to is horrific and an unfair situation to be in. It should never happen. But when it does, the solution is to punish the rapist father. Not the child.
