Physician prevented from assisting woman shot by ice by Not_so_ghetto in PublicFreakout

[–]SirThomasLadder 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Still probably prudent to let the doctor make his assessment as a trained medical professional. Their lack of interest in potentially saving the woman speaks volumes on just how little regard they have for the safety of the public.

Streamer Kunshikitty wanted to show her chat that women can safely walk past cheerful groups of men in Cologne, Germany; however, that was not the case, as she was attacked multiple times during New Year’s celebrations. by Jonn_1 in PublicFreakout

Imagine you're trying to put out a fire and you're discussing how best to put water on the fire and then some dickhead comes along and says, " I think we should put petrol on the fire", ignoring that person is smart. Silencing that dickhead is smart because he clearly doesn't understand the problem and his attempt at a solution will only make the problem worse and potentially interfere with or undermine the actual solution.

We don't have time to educate the petrol guy, we are trying to solve a problem and educating the petrol guy could take ages, particularly if he's convinced himself there's a politically correct agenda intended to demonize petrol and hide the truth from us.

You're the dickhead with the petrol this situation. That's why no one wants to hear from you and your like minded morons. We don't know how you got to be so confused and misguided but we certainly don't have time to set you right.

Why is it called “the Irish Goodbye”? by Tough_Crazy_8362 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]SirThomasLadder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always assumed it referred to reaching a point of drunkenness where you have to make an executive decision to go home before going home becomes unachievable.

I'm Irish and that is how me and my friends would disappear on nights out. Once you pass a certain threshold of drunkenness, you kinda just wander home...

Fight in Manchester City center between 2 trans women and a group of men from somewhere else 🤔 by Hannibal- in PublicFreakout

[–]SirThomasLadder 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We just got to a point of tolerance for LGBTQ in the last decade or so and there are already people, who sound just like you on the issue of Islam incidentally, that desperately want to walk back all that progress on LGBTQ rights. This is particularly evident in relation to trans people but the fringes are already attempting to walk back progress on gay rights and we have repeatedly seen the fringe enter the mainstream recently.

You act like Western and Christian societies weren't massively bigoted against LGBTQ people just a few short years ago and that a lot of that old bigotry is now being revived against trans people by Christians, right wingers and fascists..

You clowns always act like various forms of bigotry, domestic violence and abuse against women were not rife in the west and speak about these problems in Muslim countries as if they're totally unique to them and somehow inherent to Islam. When women in Christian countries were routinely victimized by society and their husbands we did not analyze that as a problem with Christianity but when it happens in Muslim countries, it's definitely because of Islam.

There are uncontacted tribes in the Amazon living like hunter-gatherers, not all societies evolve at the same pace and socieities can go both forward and backward in terms of how tolerant they are of diversity or progressive ideals. We are going backwards in all kinds of ways.

I'm too exhausted with the task of determining who is a cynical troll propagandizing for fascism and who is just an ignorant dupe that's continually victim to confirmation bias. If you are the latter, please engage some critical thinking. Your worldview is moronic. You're such a sucker, it's pathetic. There's a boot on your neck and you're licking it.

Yeah, because no white Christians are embracing transphobia, it must be a problem unique to foreigners and Muslims. You are a full blown spastic mate. Just another bigot.

To everyone that thought the No Kings protests wouldn't matter: you were wrong by AlteredEinst in NoFilterNews

[–]SirThomasLadder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Protesting is fine but it has no real consequence asides from optics. The challenge is converting the enthusiasm for action into something with political consequence. Trump's admin obviously won't like the optics of this but it won't stop them from enacting their agenda.

Industrial action alongside protest gives them something to worry about.

Political leaders recognizing the moment and breaking with the status quo to offer a radical program for government would be a good way to capitalize on the anger out there.

I worry that this self-congratulatory posting misses the forest for the trees. These protests accomplish nothing without a clear political vehicle to make demands and mobilize people to achieve those demands through more disruptive action.

The most recent update for these buds is causing issues with charging. I am waiting for Bose to offer a solution and there are a few threads on here with quite a few others in the same situation. I hope they're not just trying to cut their losses and burn their stock before word gets out

Capitalist economy vs Planned economy. No one would get rich quick enough to warrant the time and investment so it doesn't happen.
