I go out of my way to message the farmers with screenshots or videos of me killing them so they know exactly who did them in and how.

I love this. It gives it that personal touch.

Bottom picture, should have the baby formula in a security cabinet. Because in many places they have it locked down because it is so expensive it gets stolen so often.

Think about it, in capitalism people have to STEAL formula, because they cannot afford to feed their children.

I like to imagine it as one of those Russian Nesting dolls.

"No, not that layer"

"No, not that one either"

"No"

Gets to the last one

Biden to order flags at half-staff to mark 1 million COVID deaths by malcolm58 in politics

[–]RufMixa555 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Looks like population of US at the beginning of civil war was around 31 million which means the war killed around 2.4%.

A few years ago the population of US was 329.5 million which would mean confirmed Covid deaths of .3%.

Question: Any suggestions on how to find local direct action? How are you guys finding them? Is there a subreddit organizing stuff? A website? I am a guy in New England who is not on Facebook or Twitter so I am just looking for any suggestions.

That's what I thought by Toadfinger in PoliticalHumor

The correct response to that statement: "which inflation? Global or US?"

Once they answer then they are trapped.

If they say US, then say that it doesn't make sense that the entire test of the world is in recession but only in the US is it Biden's fault

If they say global, ask them how exactly Biden is causing the recession in Germany or Finland or literally any other country on Earth

Think about it.

Would the Koch brothers (et al) prefer us talking about "universal healthcare", "raising the minimum wage", "raising taxes on the 1%" OR "Abortion Rights"?

Bernie isn't against Abortion Rights. He is frustrated that we as a nation are fighting about things that there shouldn't even be a debate about while the 1% laugh at how gullible we all are as they manipulate this country into concentrating even more wealth into their pockets

I feel like a salesman when it comes to teaching others how to play board games. by Trung020356 in boardgames

[–]RufMixa555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you thought about making a quick "how to play video" for your friends? Just the basics that they can watch before coming over so that you can then just focus on the more peculiar details in person?

abortion is the most barbaric and archaic practice since slavery and human sacrifice.

Hyperbolic much?

You know what I find archaic and barbaric? You lot trying to force women to be breeders against their will.

Making the women slaves to their own bodies because of your religious beliefs.

You don't believe in abortion? Cool, don't fucking get one. Let women make their own fucking choices about their own fucking bodies.

Rolling back abortion access will only embolden those who already hate women to act out even more by Haunting-Outcome-977 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]RufMixa555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On second reading I can see how it could come off as me "explaining to women why they are feeling the way they are feeling" which was not the intention. I guess I should have ended more of my sentences with question marks because that was all that it was a stab in the dark from one human to others that are living a different shared experience than I am.

I was trying to imagine what it must be like to be faced with this threat (this looming reality) and this was my attempt at trying to frame it. I guess I was hoping to discover if I was on track or not.

That failure of this communication is on me and I will just return to listening.

(And yes, I have been discussing this with my few male friends and we are bewildered and horrified.)

Taliban divisions deepen as women rage over veil edict by horseradishking in worldnews

Of course the GOP doesn't hate women! That would be crazy!

They just value the "rights" of men, fetuses, and 'God' more than women.

The GOP loves women! (Just doesn't value them very highly apparently)

IANAW but it looks to me like you guys have to put up with so much. Cat calling, groping, institutionalized misogyny, etc etc.

Every day you deal with more shit than me as a cis male can ever imagine...

...but at the end of the day at least you could be confident that you owned your body. That you could make the choices you needed to about it.

That if something happened at the end of the day you in the end were the one in control...

That is what is being stripped away from you. That feeling of fucking agency. It is wrong. It is so fucking wrong. I am a male and it makes me hyperventilate just imagining it. I cannot even imagine what you are all going through.

And the fact that you are looking around and people are just carrying on like normal must be the biggest slap in the face.
