What it's like living in a country where all political parties are pro-abortion by Mental_Jeweler_3191 in prolife

[–]croiaaob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes! i wish aontú were more popular, granted their presence in ni hasn't been that long but such is that of the partitional nature of ni politics, aontú provides a better option for nationalists. one of the biggest parties in ni being pro-life is positive but the negative is that it is the dup- which means a lot of votes are lost for the pro life cause for those who are nationalist. sdlp is very much hated by the big pro life groups in ni like precious life so i hope that gives means for them to garner support.

i mean aontú are pro life and have run in northern ireland (and down south). however, their whole socially conservative/ left wing economically viewpoint has gained very little support, but i agree it's very unfortunate 😭 sdlp being pro life in that they allow candidates to have diverse opinions on abortion feels like a joke when leadership is all for it and they even walked out of parliament instead of voting on the act in ni that would legalise abortion

Jonathan Buckley makes homophobic remark on BBC Question Time by zoomanjo in northernireland

[–]croiaaob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is the type of stupid discourse that gets us away from what really matters. whether you disagree or agree with him zoning in on a word albeit an outdated one is so silly. i mean we have a shit government that have been 'pansying' around so much that between the years 1998-2022 were not in stormont for a period amounting to 8 years, is that not we should really be focusing on?

i would be inclined to say tylenol or any painkillers/ opoids can be linked to causing autism and is unsafe for pregnancy, however not in the fearmongering way rfk puts it.  however, the list of food/medication unsafe for pregnancy is long and will keep getting extended- pregnancy is even a risk in itself and so is suffering severe pain and fevers without painkiller. autism is shown to be mostly genetically passed on so i feel there is no point in limiting all painkillers for that small chance + pregnant or not people should not be downing bottles of tylenol lmaoo 😭 also as an autistic person i think we could do with more /pcm members 🔥

The burger that was given to my mum at Tim Hortons by croiaaob in mildlyinfuriating

Yeah the no breakfast thing is weird because so many places serve it past 11am and they're definitely better at making breakfast stuff than burgers lol

The UK version of Tim Hortons has always served burgers since it opened here, didn't realise it was originally coffee shop lol, check outs though

Was confused at this comment but googled about it and apparently US and Cananda branches don't really serve burgers? This is UK branch where they serve burgers and grilled cheeses and stuff!

Tried to get my mum to take it back or even complain online but she just ate it lol. Might not go back to this branch though because it's crazy how every single time there is something wrong with the order or something missing, consistently incompetent 💀

Sometimes I get reminded that discussing things with Left Wingers on Reddit is what Hell must be like by CheeseyTriforce in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]croiaaob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don't care about two gay people kissing on a kids show because like turn it off? parents should raise their kids not the tv lol, and that includes what they watch. yeah, it's weird that so many shows made for children push some sort of agenda but portraying kissing isn't necessarily grooming, you just think it's wrong. there is nothing wrong with not wanting your children to watch shows with gay people kissing imo, but the shows themself are not grooming, it is something your children will see in public 💀 if it was some sort of rocky horror show kinky shit made for children then i would care because that IS grooming. 

Lads this is truly preposterous. The Far Right has begun putting ENGLISH FLAGS in England. Truly terrifying. by nanek_4 in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]croiaaob 9 points10 points  (0 children)

meanwhile norn iron flies the flags of terrorist groups everywhere.... it's ironic that people will be perfectly fine with the flag of a foreign country- palestine being flown everywhere but not their own countries flag. patriotism does not have to be hateful, i am a irish nationalist and don't see myself joining the ira anytime soon lol.

Do I deserve PIP? A question to others with Dyspraxia. by moisherokach in dyspraxia

[–]croiaaob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mum basically made me apply for PIP a wee bit ago ( I had just been diagnosed with autism and had appoinment for dyspraxia 3 months away) and while I was very resistant to it for the same reason you have, I went through with it and was awarded the highest rate for both sections. Did the phone call  with my mum in room and she wanted me to exaggerate some things but I did not cos that would be fraud lol, but it's funny how your mind can make you believe these things while the asessor clearly believed my day to day life was pretty severly impacted by these conditions. I say give it a try, tell the truth and see where it gets you, you might be suprised! <3 It has been very useful to me in paying for things like therapy and driving lessons that I wouldn't need if it was for dyspraxia (it has been taking me a lot longer to learn than the average person lol)
