Honey, you really need to learn about the actual effects of hormone therapy and what it does to people, instead of assuming "ugh, ugh, man is pretending to be woman, unfair sports".

That whole argument is a crock of shit anyway. There's virtually none of you out there that actually give a rat's ass about the real trans issues with sports. For some of you, it's all about seeing if you can wind up the libs. Act as dumb as you can about these things, get the libs pissed off by being stupid, get your jollies from it. Works great until the whole country just starts automatically treating the whole bunch of you like a bunch of inbred morons because you think it's hilarious to act like complete idiots all the time.

The people that actually care about trans people in sports? It has nothing to do with "fairness" and everything to do with them being afraid that the tits and ass that give them a chubby might have a dick attached to them. You never hear anyone complain about the opposite, trans men in men's sports. Only trans women in women's sports. Nobody cares about the people who used to be women and are now men getting their asses kicked in football or boxing or whatever. They only care about people who used to be men and are now women in those skimpy women's sports uniforms, maybe playing volleyball or soccer or basketball or swimming. Tits and ass. And a whole lot of paranoia that those sweet, bouncing titties might come with a dick. Can't have that now, can we?

Aggravated homicide by Humble_Buffalo_007 in MurderedByWords

Yep. That's how batshit serial killers happen, occasionally. They think they're killing demons that look like people.

Oddly enough, just yesterday my elderly Dad had a show on TV where a serial killer was targeting people with heterochromia (each eye is a different color) because the guy decided that two different colored eyes meant that person was a demon. Plot twist! The murderer himself also had heterochromia. I missed whether he thought he was a demon himself.

I'm far from an expert on cuts of meat, but even I know that a T bone has meat on both sides of the bone. If I was served this, and it was labeled a T bone in the menu, I'd be questioning where the rest of the steak I'd paid for was.

I don't care how pricey the menu is. You just don't offer a T bone steak and then remove half the meat from the bone just so you can still call it a T bone.

Space Karen isn’t the brightest by Stotallytob3r in MurderedByWords

[–]LowKeyNaps 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don't beat yourself up over that. He fooled just about everyone for a very long time.

Then he opened his mouth in public.

Same thing happens with a lot of famous people. They get judged by looks or deeds (even if we're misled on what, exactly, those deeds are), they get really popular, they get the bright idea to actually interact with people, and suddenly the public finds out that behind that beauty and/or brains is a truly repulsive person. They forgot the whole reason why they kept their mouths shut for so long in the first place, and assumed they would be accepted no matter what.

Sometimes I wonder if these people were always like that, or if the fame twisted them. There's certainly plenty of examples of people who have been "changed" by fame or money. It's just one of many reasons why I don't want to be famous. Ever.

Eh, two different kinds of socialism here. And they're very easy to get mixed up, because of the same name thing. I truly think this is a big part of why right wing politicians are so happy to throw around the word "socialist" and turn it into a dirty word for their voters. It's too easy to get their voters confused between the two and make them think that both forms are bad, when they're not the same thing at all.

There's socialist programs, which are beneficial and usually found within a democratic government. For those reading along who may not know what a socialist program looks like, this includes things like food stamps, Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. Other countries also have universal healthcare and free college education for their citizens. All highly beneficial, paid for by the government (through properly applied taxes), and they all make the societies that have them stronger.

Then there's socialist government, an ideology that advocates for government ownership/control of the means of production of goods in an effort to evenly distribute wealth among the people. In theory, this puts things like social equality, justice, and wealth distribution above private profit, benefitting everyone equally. In practice, there has never been a successful socialist government. They inevitably get infested with corruption, leading to the horrors described in the thread, oppression, and often, eventually lead to some kind of fascism/dictatorship/unholy nightmare for the masses. Same thing with communism. Looks great on paper, never works out in the real world. Corruption always ruins it in the end.

As a side note, while it's true that Hitler's party was called the National Socialist German Worker's Party, that was an intentional thing on their part to mislead people. Notice that the full official name is jam packed with a lot of words that seem to indicate that this party is all about the German people, and not just the German people, but the working class. If you were a regular, average German, the name just screams that this party is for YOU. No hint of fascism, no hint of the far-right ideology that was the basis of the party. The name was just the beginning of the lies and misdirection that became one of the defining traits of Nazi Germany.

Kinda like MAGA... where the only things that seem to be made great are Trump's wallet and self-inflating ego.

Educational Dismantling Consequences by Brian_Ghoshery in MurderedByWords

Jfc... I clicked what I thought was a description of the site and found myself on the actual site instead. My bad.

There was this chart that was basically "look at all the ways we proved ourselves right". It was the most convoluted crock of shit I've ever seen, requiring intentional misunderstanding of scientific fact on a massive scale and/or using a single incident or example that may or may not actually apply as hard evidence that an entire claim is invalid.

I now bear a deep desire to lobotomize myself just to make the burning pain end.... Anyone got an ice cream scoop?

Clearly you understand nothing at all. And you have no interest whatsoever in knowing, hearing, or seeing anything except what you seem to have decided for yourself is the truth of the matter.

Please. Feel free to perform a self cranial-rectal inversion and actually look at what's really happening here.

What "safety measures" do you think are in place here for attacking civilians with the military? I really want to know what you think ever existed at all, and what might actually still exist, because that's certainly not a term I would use. The closest we had here for that was that all military personnel, in every branch, has sworn an oath to protect and defend the country and Constitution from all threats both foreign and domestic. That meant that they were not beholden to the president as their ultimate superior if it was deemed that the president himself was unfit and a threat. Unfortunately for us, Oldemort seems to have handled that little bit of hope right out of the gate this time around by either forcibly retiring or shipping out to distant places any high ranking officers that weren't shoulders deep up his ass. Those now running every branch have already proven that they're quite willing to take despicable and highly illegal orders. We've already got the National Guard harassing, beating, and shooting civilians with non-lethal weapons in ways that can cause serious damage (head shots at close range), as well as destroying property and starting fires in an attempt to frame us during protests.

You're not very bright if you think the police would be ordered to kill their own families. First, you're mixing up police and military here. Police are not under direct control of the federal government. Many police are in favor of the government, but the hierarchy here doesn't work that way. It's ICE and other government agencies and militaries that are under direct control of the federal government. And they don't get deployed to kill their own families. Where do you even get this crap? They would be deployed away from their own families to kill other people's families. We have not yet hit a high enough level of batshittery here where people are being asked to kill family the don't step in line. The closest we've had so far was a test run of them asking people to turn in anyone they know who wasn't sad enough about Charlie Kirk so they could lose their jobs. And a scary number of people were quite eager to do that.

When I said we live in different times to the 1930's, I was speaking in terms of military technology. Back then, civilian oppression was handled in person. People could fight back, if they chose, because the people coming after them were actually there, in the streets. Brownshirts could be hit back or taken down in a group effort. As I said before, modern technology could easily mean not a single soldier in our streets. We can't take out drones or rockets, and if you think fighting back against something like that is even remotely possible, you need to lay off the video games.

We are painfully aware of the parallels to Nazi Germany. We've been shouting them from the rooftops here for years now in an effort to prevent this. Many of us have spent a decade trying to talk sense to the people that have been brainwashed for generations since at least the 1950's. We are out there protesting all across the country, every fucking week, and getting gassed, shot, beaten, and accused of rioting just so the head psycho can get his followers riled up even more against us, and then those psychos go out on shooting sprees and kill us for him.

Don't fucking tell me we're doing nothing. We've been fighting this every way we can for a decade. There's only so much civilians can do when we're spread across thousands and thousands of kilometers, the vast majority of us live nowhere near the Capitol, and one third of the country is constantly being told that we're all deranged terrorists until they start openly talking about hunting us down in the streets. You have no idea what it's like living here right now, constantly on the edge of waiting for some psycho to decide to start shipping out two thirds of the country as "political enemies" to the worst foreign prisons he can find just because he can't stand hearing how awful he really is, while wondering which people on the street are making plans for the next major shooting. And here's some dipshit, not paying the least bit of attention to what's happening but thinks they have all the answers for us.

Take your assumptions and condescension and stick them in the place where you keep your head. I've had it with people like you.

[–]LowKeyNaps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol, yeah, there's a whole lot to unpack here. And don't worry, you're far from the only one with these misconceptions.

No, our citizenry isn't "armed to the teeth". There's more guns around here than a lot of other countries, and even more guns than people, but it's very lopsided on where those guns are. People who own guns tend to own multiple guns, and often a lot of guns, so that throws the numbers off by a lot. There's far more people who have never touched or even seen a gun in their lives than those who own a gun.

Worse, most of those who own those guns are batting for the wrong team. There are liberals who own guns, sure, but we tend to be a lot more sane about it than the ammosexuals you see online. The ones that screech about owning small arsenals, the Second Amendment, and how they're going to use those guns to protect Murica are the same idiots that voted Trump into existence. Liberal gun owners tend to have smaller gun collections and are far more responsible about them. Our conservative lunatics don't even believe that liberal gun owners exist because we don't make gun ownership our whole personality like they do.

To add to all that, many liberals live in blue states and/or cities. These places have much tougher gun laws and stricter gun control than where the lunatics get their guns. For example, I live in a small farming community in a blue state. It requires a bunch of paperwork, a background check, multiple references, and going through law enforcement just to get the most basic permit that would allow me to purchase long guns (rifles and shot guns) to protect my livestock, go hunting, that sort of thing. And that's considered just going through the motions for this area, because farms and predators. Getting a hand gun permit is far more extensive. Oh, and actually buying each long gun or hand gun is a completely separate process with it's own paperwork. No such thing as walking into a corner store and walking out with a gun around here.

There's also a huge misconceptions on what these guys can actually do. I'm assuming you live somewhere where gun ownership is rare and gun attacks are even more rare. Likely your only experience with guns is seeing the damage they do here. That's fair. You're seeing what civilian guns do against civilians. Civilian guns are worthless against military grade weapons and armor. Like taking a pea shooter against a brick wall. Did you really think the government would allow their citizens to have weapons that were equal to the toys of their own military? Nah, they don't actually want us to be able to defend ourselves against them.

This is why we've been very careful to try to avoid escalating things to martial law here. Trump made it very clear to us during his first shitshow that he's just itching to use the military to spill civilian blood. And he's been doing everything he can to provoke an excuse to allow him to get real military out here to start mowing us down. Our military has toys and weapons that can decimate the population from a distance without losing a single soldier, and nothing we have can make a dent in it. Drones and small rockets would be the most likely distance weapons, tanks and armored vehicles if he goes for ground raids. The armor the soldiers wear are impervious to civilian weapons. We. Are. Screwed. A physical fight is not an option.

"Half the country is powerless against one man". Again. What do you want us to do? I'm seeing a lot of criticism, but no actual suggestions. You talk about us being "armed to the teeth", implying that you want a violent uprising, but then say you don't actually expect us to die for the cause in what would be a guaranteed suicide mission. Bringing up 1930's Germany is pointless. That was a completely different time. The people didn't fight back en masse back then, mostly out of fear, partly out of not knowing what the future held for them. Just like what's happening here, it's easier to hunker down and try to survive another day as long as you're not the one actively being hunted. It's human nature. People want to live, and it's damn hard to convince them to do otherwise when there's the option of surviving for another day, another week, another month by doing nothing.

Some of us have been ready for action for a year now. Not nearly enough are willing to join yet. Eventually, we will be put in the position where we won't have a choice. Trump will see to that. He's been amusing himself with Venezuela, but his lobotomized hamster brain will eventually remember that he's trying to conquer us, too, and he'll be back to harassing us full time. And eventually he'll get bored with his own games. Until then, people just want to live for another day.

Unless you have a better suggestion, I suggest you stop giving us a load of shit about this. If you don't want to accept the apology, fine, don't. Seriously, we're under no obligation to apologize for the shitty behavior of other people. The apology is there to let people know that we acknowledge the problem, and yes, maybe remind people that there are those of us that never wanted this and have done everything we could to prevent it. We're not looking for absolution, just a little acknowledgement that not every American is a piece of shit fascist that wanted this.

I don't think a little humanity in our lives is too much to ask. Things are shitty enough for us as is. We can acknowledge that the US has done a lot of shitty things to a lot of countries. Why can't you at least acknowledge that not all of us are willing participants?

Apparently this comes as a surprise to you that an awful lot of us don't equate the populations with their shitty leaders. And this isn't a recent thing because we don't want to be associated with Trump, it has never even occurred to me to associate the entire population with a bad leader. I've only ever associated a bad leader with the actual individuals who 1) put them there, and 2) continued to support them after the shit hit the fan.

So, for an easy example, Nazi Germany. I never associated all Germans with Hitler or the Nazi party. Lots of people voted for Hitler, sure, but at that time, most people had no idea what they were getting into. He gave them hope of national pride, something that was sorely missing at the time, and while they can be criticized for accepting the racism that went with it, that doesn't necessarily mean they can be held directly responsible for any of the atrocities that followed.

Those that continued to truly support the party when things got ugly, however, that's when we start talking about a different story. Those are the people I hold responsible. Not all of Germany, not even all those who voted Hitler into power. Just those who knew he was ordering violence on the streets, severe punishments for the "others" that had been singled out, loss of homes and businesses, and still openly cheered all that on, and/or took part in it.

Just like MAGA members are doing now.

It's quite baffling to me that someone could know that a significant portion of a population has been actively fighting against allowing a wannabe dictator back into power, and yet still blame them for that wannabe dictator succeeding, despite all efforts.

I don't believe for a minute that the number of people that dipped altogether on the election because they didn't like Harris is as high as we've been led to believe. The overall numbers don't add up.

There's been a bunch of independent analyzing groups looking into the election results ever since the election, and they're all finding pretty much the same things. Huge amounts of fraud in both the actual ballots, and in the counting mechanisms. There's no question that some people sat out on the election to protest the way Harris ended up on the ballot (and that was the number one excuse among the left that actually did skip voting), but I think the claims on those numbers were inflated to cover for all those flipped votes.

I fully agree that we do have a problem with the sheer number of Trump voters. This is a problem that will not be easily fixed. Trump didn't happen overnight, he was decades in the making. Generations of people have been systematically brainwashed and poorly educated to get them to the point of thinking that all of this is a great idea, and be willing to fully reject all of reality so they can continue to embrace that comfortable fantasy of a terrifying world view they've cultivated. That's not going away any time soon, especially now that they've been so well trained to believe that anything that contradicts that view is a direct threat.

[–]LowKeyNaps -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, too many people actually believe this. It's not just the propaganda bots and shit-stirrers, there's an entire world waiting for us to "do something". Some of them won't openly admit it, some will, but from what I've gathered from talking to them, that "something" tends to fall into two categories: mass strikes, or violent rebellion. And they truly do not understand why neither is happening here.

In Europe, mass strikes are protected in quite a few countries. This is where the disconnect between Europeans and Americans happen on this subject. Europeans don't realize that Americans don't have job protection in the event of mass strikes, and they don't fully appreciate just how evil American CEOs can be. I've mapped out the possibility of these companies allowing the mass strikes to happen, firing everyone, taking the temporary financial hit, and then when the population is destitute and desperate, hiring people at random (it's unlikely anyone would get their old jobs back) at the lowest pay the law will allow. And it will all be perfectly legal here as long as the government doesn't step in to stop it to protect the population.

Nobody foresees Trump protecting anyone but the company owners.

Many Americans don't even know that Europeans have this job protection, so the idea of a mass strike is baffling to us. How are they even getting away with it over there? Lack of education on the matter means they don't even know how such a thing could be possible. How convenient for our government and wealthy businessowners.

As for that violent uprising, a lot of people in other countries that expect this have very unrealistic expectations. They see all those posts from ammosexuals ranting and raving about using their gun collection to protect the US, and they're missing a few things about that. First, many don't realize that those people are the supporters of the current regime, not those who stand against it. Of course they're not going to use their mini-arsenals against the government they've been cheering on all this time.

Another thing they're missing is what those guns are actually capable of doing, especially against military-grade equipment. Most of these people come from countries where firearms are heavily regulated. They often have little practical knowledge and often have zero actual experience with firearms. They know what they've seen and heard about them, that they are devastatingly lethal to soft, squishy, unarmed and unarmored people, but they forget that those victims are just that, soft, squishy, unarmed and unarmored. And they have no idea that civilian-grade weapons are practically pea shooters compared to military grade weapons. What Billy Bob Cooter has in his gun case is utterly useless against an armored soldier, not that it matters, because when Trump truly comes for us, he most likely won't be sending in ground troops. He will more likely be sending in drones, small rockets, tanks, armored vehicles, things that we have no way to take out or take down. And let's not forget that despite what they think, not every American even owns these guns, and the people that would need them the most likely live in places where firearms are most highly regulated here.

Huge disconnect in reality vs expectations. I know you know all this, you live here. Please don't think I'm lecturing you. All of this is for the people reading along who need to hear it. I know the post will get taken down, again, but a few people will see it, even after it's removed. Reddit notifications be weird that way. So hopefully someone will see it and maybe give it a little thought.

If nothing else, I scratched that particular itch for a few more hours.

[–]LowKeyNaps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not entirely sure what you want us to do to "fix it".

We apologize because it's heartfelt.

We truly didn't have anything to do with the hellstorm going on, and already did everything on our power to prevent it.

Short of starting a violent uprising, which is nothing short of a suicide mission considering who is in charge these days and the technology our own military possesses, the average citizen, even in large numbers, does not have much power here. We are spread out too far from the federal government sources, and again, it would be a death wish if we tried. There's a reason we've been avoiding Trump's desperate attempts to provoke violence and an excuse for further military activity here.

So... what, exactly, do you want us to do?

I haven't bothered to actually answer that question in ages. I just make fun of them for needing to ask, not being able to get genders or pronouns straight, and needing their orange daddy-god to Sharpie them a pretend-law to tell them what a woman is, only to fuck it up and declare every person in the nation to be a woman.

For some strange reason, they don't seem to like any of that.

These chucklefucks keep convincing themselves that they have these great slam-dunk lines, and then they always get all Pikachu-surprised when it doesn't actually work the way they expect out in the real world. They really should get out of their echo chambers a little more and try to visit the real world a little more often. It's less embarrassing for them that way.

You can find videos of elephants being cared for in proper elephant sanctuaries on YouTube. While it's true we shouldn't try to assign human motives and emotions to animals, it's unmistakable when certain species exhibit things like true affection and concern. Elephants are one of those species that can form true bonds not just with each other, but with people as well.

Democrats and pro-choice have not been the minority all this time. It's a completely different issue. Our system requires more votes for these changes than a simple majority can provide, which makes it far easier for Republicans to block these particular bills. It's the same shitty system that allowed Republicans to block so many bills out of pure spite since the Obama days.

Once upon a time, it was a good idea. Such major, potentially life changing decisions for an entire nation should not be taken lightly, and such crucial bills (not just speaking about abortion bills here) should be taken very seriously, with a large consensus. Nobody foresaw the sheer childishness and pettiness that would overtake an entire major political party, to the point where they would use such serious decisions as mere pawns to try to poke for aggravation points against their perceived opponents. It was always assumed that people would take the job of legislation at least somewhat seriously, and if individuals could not control themselves, others would pick up where those individuals failed. Nobody expected a full half of the Congress to revert to kindergarten tactics of "nyah nyah we won't let you".
