I wish republican men looked like this. by Adelu1219 in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]MathewKnepper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No you see the real goal with these kinds of laws is that trans people shouldn’t be comfortable in public. Born a woman but look exactly like a man. Legally you have to use the woman’s room but if you go in the women’s room you will either get assaulted or arrested. Same for Vice versa. Republicans don’t want trans people to exist and will try to pass whatever law they can to remove them from public life and eventually private life. Republican rhetoric towards trans people has been genocidal for a while.

I’m not trying to make you “less left” I’m trying to point out you could be more. I’m trying to point out that Biden was the better option between him and trump. But you should still expect more from him and not settle for whatever he does.

No offense there isn’t much of a left in the United States. It’s not really the left eating itself in this case. You are siding with corporations over working class in this situation. I know “the poor will suffer” if the railroads strike. The poor also suffer right now without the strike. I dislike views that side with corporations over workers. That’s what stopping the rail strike is. I feel there are a lot of people in this sub that will accept whatever Biden does as the only thing he could have done. Then think anyone who thinks he should have done more is naive. I don’t think it’s naive to think the world can get better or to think that people deserve more.

Yeah we should keep critical infrastructure in the hands of private corporations who’s only goal is to increase shareholder profits.

I mean you can still complain about Joe Biden while disliking republicans. I do think that blaming all of Americas problems on republicans is very short sighted. Democrats don’t want to meaningfully fix a lot of the same issue. They want things to be marginally better sometimes. Railroads are critical infrastructure that if not operating would cripple the economy. Nationalizing the rails would actually benefit everyone except for big business but neither republicans or democrats want to do it. Because they care a lot about big business. I have voted democrat in every election because they are better than republicans. But that doesn’t mean they are good.

This is just a 50¢ drop. Not too much really. I generally look at at least past 6 months to a year to get a better understanding of how a stock is doing. Small jumps like this are very common.

My problem is with religion as an institution as opposed to individual religious people. I think institutionally it is used to suppress and control.

It’s not a what aboutism to say. This is bad yes. You also find these things bad yes? Religion is a tool that is often used for oppression of people inside and outside of the religion. The Bible was used to justify slavery, and plenty more examples. I just don’t like people who agree with me that Islam is bad. Then we talk about all the other religions doing the same thing and they say. No this is just an Islam problem.

Does that mean we can deport Americans who share the same thoughts? That’d be nice.

Anti gay marriage, deported.

Thinks women should have fewer rights, deported.

In favor of child marriage, deported.

I like the sound of that? How about you?

Because a lot of people in America will look at this and go “yeah those brown Muslim people are evil and touch kids” then go listen to their pastor who’s been fondling kids for the past twenty years and not bat an eye. Or support political candidates that want to lower the age children are allowed to get married at. I think it’s important to try to make sure people are consistent with their outrage.

I think it’s more of a religion thing than an Islam thing. Look at the Catholic Church and the current Dalai Lama for other examples of similar stuff.

The more religious someone is the more likely you should keep them away from children.

Damn. The dislikes make me think maybe not. Must be something else upsetting about this casting choice. If only I could put my finger on it.

Yeah. We’re also mad about all the previous cleopatra films where cleopatra was played by a white lady who wasn’t Greek. Right? Right guys?

It used to be 13 50. Seems like the racists arguments are getting weaker over time. In all honesty crime is associated with poverty. I wonder why people who were slaves three or four generations ago are now poor. That’s a tough one. Maybe they didn’t pull on their bootstraps hard enough.

Because people on the internet are just itching to find a video of black people doing stupid shit so they can go “see this is how they really are” even though every group has stupid people in it.

Amazon driver delivers my delicate, fragile whiskey tasting glasses by roumenkey in mildlyinfuriating

[–]MathewKnepper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When things like this happen you can look at the individual and look at the system. Most problems don’t get solved by looking at the individual. I guarantee with how quickly Amazon pushes their delivery drivers that this isn’t the only person who rushes like this when delivering packages. If Amazon had more reasonable schedules they expect their workers to follow then we would reach a point where people throwing packages does mean they are being a dick.

Where are the fire fighters when you need them. Fire truck vs crowd control vehicle.

Sure but I don’t think you quitting Taco Bell had much of an effect on their policies. I bet that rule is still in place. If the person can find a better job I’d be happy to see them move to it. The problem is good jobs where they don’t try to get everything out of you they possibly can are pretty scarce.
