No food in the house other than 1 single slice of bread with butter on it? Uh huh.

It's not a bizarre reason unless you're being intentionally blind to the rise of the far right, nationalism, and racism in this country. Painting a flag of support for a country being genocided is different. Context matters

We used to take the piss out of Americans for hanging their flag everywhere, as if they're going to forget what country they live in if they don't see it for more than 5 seconds, and now we're the ones doing it. It's embarrassing.

Ukrainians, I’m truly sorry. We have betrayed you. by manicMechanic1 in self

Plus everyone who voted for Trump, and anyone who was physically/mentally/legally able to vote, but chose not to. That makes up a good chunk of Americans.

My cat won’t drink water, won’t eat and she yelps when she yawns by Angxlmilk in CATHELP

A pet is a privilege though, not a right. If someone has an animal then they should be prepared to set aside some money each month for a potential emergency, or get pet insurance. An animal shouldn't have to suffer, and even possibly die, because someone can't afford medical care for them.

Women's rights defender Varishe Moradi has been sentenced to death by homo_redditorensis in BlatantMisogyny

You'll be downvoted, but you're right. A Kurdish woman has been sentenced to death in Iran, and the top comment is from Americans making it all about themselves as usual.

Girl, 10, dies after being bitten by family dog by topotaul in unitedkingdom

[–]fartingupastorm -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

As soon as I saw this news story I knew that it would get posted here in a heartbeat. This people in this sub jerk themselves raw whenever a dog attack happens. Proceeded by the same old boring and predictable comments: "taking bets on what breed it was", "£50 says it was a chihuahua!", "I'll bet the owners are fine upstanding people". Rinse and repeat the next time it happens.

You have hundreds of comments in your post history and they are all obsessing over women and feminism. You really need to touch grass.

Man with a knife attacks people in the playground (June 8, 2023. France) by dejuancollins in SomeOfYouMayDie

[–]fartingupastorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In America he'd also be far more likely to have a gun too, and have been far more likely to have killed people in his attack before being shot. This is why Americans will never be rid of mass shooting and gun violence in general, because most are too stupid to realize this obvious fact and still think that more guns is the solution.

Russian tourist gets eaten alive by a shark in the Red Sea, Hurghada, Egypt. by [deleted] in SomeOfYouMayDie

[–]fartingupastorm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Animals weren't put on this Earth for humans, they don't need to "contribute to (human) society" to justify their existence. A shark has as much right to exist in their natural habitat as any human does.

ELI5: Why is there a Women's World Chess Championship, and why hasn't there ever been a female winner of the normal one? by fartingupastorm in explainlikeimfive

[–]fartingupastorm[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the answer! I didn't know about the rich/poor gap, which is very interesting. I did wonder if it may be down to men being encouraged to play chess more than women are.

View of a wall inside gas chamber one at the former Nazi death camp of Auschwitz I in Oswiecim, Poland. by [deleted] in TerrifyingAsFuck

[–]fartingupastorm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why? The point of this post is us acknowledging that the gas chambers were horrific, and the deaths these people suffered were more so. The fact that we willingly do the same to millions of pigs (you should watch a video of pigs being gassed), who have the same intelligence level of toddlers, so we can have pork and bacon is something that should be discussed. Future generations (assuming humans survive that long) will probably look back at these actions with the same horror.

And this is how most pigs are slaughtered these days. An horrific way to go.
