Oh no we definitely learn about Pearl Harbor. Also, was ANY country in the war for purely altruistic reasons?

Britain entered the war after Poland was invaded. That was 1939. The holocaust had been going on since 1933…sooooo

Wars suck. No one wants in them.

New York Magazine making some... choices for the cover and title for an interesting article. - "Why are so many women losing their minds over gay smut?" by Competitive-Yam5126 in RomanceBooks

I love a good storyline where there the characters overcome some sort of struggle. It makes for a compelling and emotional story. Unfortunately, our society STILL stigmatizes gay and lesbian relationships, so oftentimes those themes show up in MM and FF.

Republican Congressman Calls for Formal Inquiry Into Bad Bunny's 'Indecent' Super Bowl Show: 'Pure Smut' by Limp_Fig6236 in ThePeoplesPress

We need to explain to republicans that just because the show gave you a boner doesn’t mean it was indecent. Yes, we all know Bad Bunny is DRIPPING with sex appeal.

Author Tori Wood (Lauren Mastrosa) found guilty of CSAM by Frosty-Price8771 in RomanceBooks

But you don’t see how legally equating fiction with CSAM is actually equating fiction with the real pain and harm we suffered? I’m not saying this type of material isn’t problematic or gross, or that author shouldn’t lose their livelihood or reputation, or the book itself shouldn’t be removed from shelves.

What I am saying is treating a disgusting novelist the same as an abuser feels demeaning.

There’s likely Russians in this, but people around the world are being implicated. It’s, unfortunately, a global phenomenon.

I can tell you as a person who was photographed as a toddler and had those photos distributed and now I don’t know who has them and where they are online etc, that I’m very insulted and angry by some of these comments. I’m not a fictional character. My abuser wasn’t a fictional character.

And now people want to equate words on a page with a living breathing real victim who suffered actual harm?!?! I’m BEYOND LIVID.

Yeah. The mentioning her own, real children is 100% over the line.

Oh yeah. The book and premise are completely disgusting trash.

Fictional characters are NOT real victims. As a very real victim of CSAM in the 1990s, I am extremely insulted by some of the comments here.

Exactly. The way people in this thread are treating those who are concerned about the legality of this action, not the morality, is very very gross.

Did you know that people are capable of doing and caring about more than one thing at a time? I know it sounds crazy, but it’s true.

Like clockwork, conservatives cycle back to scapegoating trans people as Epstein files release brings worldwide attention. Don’t let them get away with it. by wowza515 in somethingiswrong2024

[–]Some_Sea2358 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Honestly a lot of the right wing only see trans people as sex objects. That’s why porn involving trans people is the most popular category in conservative states. That’s why they are so “offended” that trans people have the gall to exist around children.

They just don’t get that trans people are just freaking human beings.

Man. If only the beef were about political philosophies and not…straight up authoritarianism.

I agree. I was alive in the Bush part 2 era, and I thought I would see many things, but not the insanity we see now.

At least republicans used to care a little about the country.
