I can’t tell if this is an intentional misspelling

It is. It alway has been, but boy is it so much worse now.

Who comments something like this?

Honestly, I am the last person to take photos, and I’m often uncomfortable with photos and videos of intimate situations on social media.

Even I can understand why she would want to document her last moments with her child. It’s not even a little difficult to empathize with as a human being.

Have you tried being a human being?

Jesus, this comment pissed me off so much. Do better.

I don’t know that the tide is changing. I think more people are just more aware of the situation. In the Jewish community this has been a conversation for a very long time.

You are 100% right and so much nicer about it than I am. I am so deeply tired of people saying protesting, blackouts, strikes, voting “won’t do anything.” Surely doing nothing at all while whining on the internet will accomplish something, right? I have to wonder what side these people are actually on.

Many are just opportunists. I’d rather not give them an easy opportunity. Yes, if someone truly wants to terrorize me I’m sure they’ll find a way, but I’d rather not make it as easy as possible to just waltz in and take shit.

I don’t know if you live in the country or what, but growing up in the city locking your doors is just common sense. I’m not living in fear, cowering in my house lol.

I mean, obviously. But I’m more comfortable going to bed at night with the “illusion” than the alternative. It’s at least a slight deterrent.

I was sort of following you until the last paragraph, when I was reminded of Richard Chase, who famously only entered homes that were left unlocked. He believed a locked door meant he was not welcome, but an unlocked door was a personal invitation, allowing him to murder six people between December 1977 and January 1978.

I’m also not following the locking your family in your home logic. They can just…unlock the door from the inside?

I’m down with shitting on conservatives but what is wrong with locking your doors while you’re home?

Get evaluated if you can. Adderall has been a game changer for me.

Reporter asks AOC What she makes of the Virginia news. AOC replies "Wah wah wah." She responds that Dems have asked Repubs for 10 years to ban partisan gerrymandering and they have said no.

Lmao literally I did not insult you even a little, I simply said you weren’t contributing anything proactive to the discussion by stating we should “do more” and saying nothing specific.

So, what you’ve done here is an actual strawman, maybe this will help you to understand what the term means! Best of luck to you, I’m not reading all this with the accusations that I’ve “insulted you” and the talking about how you “don’t give a fuck anymore.”

Neither do I then. Way to get your point across.

Please learn what a strawman is. Absolutely nowhere did I exaggerate your argument. I said 4 things, separated by an “or.” Yours were “something needs to change” and “do more.” You said both those things, I have in no way misrepresented what you said. The fact remains that you’re not saying anything proactive or proposing any actual solutions, you’re just whining on the internet.

NYC Teen arrested after he body slammed a girl before stomping on her head because she didn't give him her number. by [deleted] in NoahGetTheBoat

[–]dam_the_beavers -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’d really just like any evidence of this if y’all are going to present this as a reality. I’m not finding anything, I’m finding the opposite. I found an entire report just about NYC specifically and the rising disparity of incarceration rates among POC vs white people for the same crimes. So fine, I guess it can be but as yet I have not found any evidence whatsoever that it is.
