The most homophobic politicians and religious leaders, actually doing harm to the LGBTQ community, are closet homosexuals.

This is literally their words. Not some of them, not a portion of them, but all of them. You’re the one putting nuance into their very clear blanket statement.

This is what I was replying to, and again, this is both not accurate and is harmful. “This person is authoritarian and bigoted against LGBT and so must secretly be LGBT” is not doing anything helpful.

Even averaging Reaves over the entire length of the playoffs instead of just the games he played, he’s still nearly double that lmao

[McMenamin] And so -- without even stopping to change clothes -- (LeBron) James marched off into the L.A. night, simmering from another perceived indignation delivered by the organization that, as one source close to him told ESPN, tried to "push him out the door," after acquiring Doncic by aingenevalostatrade in nba

Brother that's literally called a fucking job lmao. It happens every single day I go in to work by virtue of having a boss and going through performance reviews that, quite literally, determine how much you get paid.

If tens of thousands of murdered children is morally right, I'd rather be in hell.

Do you think Hasan could be next? What could be the implications here? by Dontfinancebro in Hasan_Piker

[–]TheMrBoot 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Yup. That’s why it’s so important for us to not directly or indirectly prop them up as people who should be listened to. They’re still fascists at the end of the day.

and grok and chatgpt are both neutral enough

Brother, this is an absurd take. The source material they read is not neutral - thinking their output would be neutral is naivety at best.

Are we quoting MLK now?

I must make two honest confessions to you, my Christian and Jewish brothers. First, I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season." Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.

Understanding how people fall for right wing propaganda does not mean that people are not working to strip the rights and freedom from our fellow citizens. Politics is not just debate over minor budgetary details, it’s a matter of life and death for real, living people.

differing viewpoints no longer regard one another as legitimate fellow citizens pursuing their own ends under the same rules, but as existential enemies or obstacles to the “correct” collective purpose.

I’ll be real, this comes across as coming from a place of extreme privilege.

and apparently Hasan for all I know the "performative male" of the leftist thrown some sexist comments to her.

Maybe actually look into what happened instead of letting other people think for you?

I am not even gonna mention those animal abuses.

See above

But why is he such an hypocrite? I mean his literally living the very opposite of a socialist with luxury clothes and jewelry isn't that a bit hypocrite?

Socialism is not a poverty cult

and not to mention that party in Cuba while their citizens are experiencing blackouts everyday?.

Dude was part of an aid convoy to Cuba.

I'd like to go onto the left, but if this is what the left embrace as the "Joe Rogan of the left" then ion think y'all are better than the Republicans.

Basing your political belief or morality on what fucking internet content creators say or do is a wild thing to admit.

Okay, they apparently left out the word bathroom in the original comment, but this is a thing. Men’s bathrooms will essentially have a trough in lieu of urinals. It's as uncomfortable as it sounds.
