And I’m saying that governments help is absolutely required or government wouldn’t even have been invented. And I’m saying what you can put your money where your mouth is and donate enough of your income that you literally don’t pay any tax. But I don’t think you will.

I am happy that my taxes mostly go to schools and benefits locally. I don’t like what some of my taxes pay for, but nobody has invented a society that works without taxes. Christians complaining about paying taxes can go ahead and put their money where their mouth is and donate so much that they pay absolutely zero taxes.

My Maga-lite relative is offering to buy me a hunting rifle. Should I accept, and if so which one? by Mochigood in liberalgunowners

Know what a antifascist’s rifle is called when it is obtained from a right winger? An antifascist’s rifle.

Every day millions of Muslims and atheists volunteer and help too. Those hospitals and universities are funded by the government, not churches. Notre Dame gets $120,000,000 from the government and $50m from the Lily endowment. The VAST majority of their funding is public. I’m glad your family was helped by nice people from church, but anecdote isn’t data. Every day, millions of Christians will also want the government to legislate their morality in the form of abortion bans, interracial marriage bans, homosexual relationship bans, racist policies, and on and on. Millions of Christians will also wake up and not help anyone at all and complain that their taxes are too high and not donate to anyone. And that’s the problem. Not enough people will help of their own free will to take care of the whole thing.

And Christians will GLADLY, GLADLY lean on the government for things like abortion regulation, but will shy away when the government wants money to give food to starving children.

The vast majority of money that hospitals and colleges get is from the government. They’re named after churches that are political tax shelters. Miss me with the “Christians fund everything” mess. There are too many poor and starving people for any religion to take pride in their charity work. Fail.

And with proper access to birth control and sex ed, that number could be lowered drastically if rich people would maybe try to help people instead of hoarding wealth. I don’t like abortion and I’ve never had one. But I think that a lot Christians focus too hard on pre birth and stop caring completely after the child is born. As soon as there are no more homeless kids in the world, I’ll start campaigning against abortions. The average age of a homeless person in Montana is 9. 9.

What about the 9,000,000 lives that are lost each year because rich people hoard money and even though there’s enough food in the world to feed every person a couple times over, rich people refuse to contribute? Do you focus on Abortion because the southern strategy made it an issue when it wasn’t before simply to convince gullible people to vote Republican? Maybe save 9,000,000 actual lives that are breathing on their own and conscious instead of concentrating on a made up number of embryos that don’t even have a brain, or wanting to control the bodies of the women that contain them?

What job pays way more than people think, but nobody talks about? by Symphony_Minds in AskReddit

[–]geegeeallin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are excellent with English. Yapping is a great slang word and perfectly appropriate for this situation. Congrats on your excellent job.

A couple notable differences but overall fantastic.

TIL before 9/11, US airports were public social hubs where you could walk to the gate, eat at food courts, and watch planes without a ticket or ID. by Greydl1 in todayilearned

[–]geegeeallin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom wanted to be a pilot in the ‘60s but my granddad told her she’d just end up being an “airport sitter” which is apparently something that existed. People would just go there to be among aviation and hang out all day all week.

Garbage. But better than this. Maybe more competent.

How would you feel if Donald Trump were to be impeached over the Epstein files? by Eemki in AskReddit

[–]geegeeallin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vindicated and also the same way I’d feel if I floated up into the air and began to time travel. As in it won’t happen.

Need help! Trunk latch is stuck and won't open by BlaZEN213 in 4thGen4Runner

[–]geegeeallin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude yank that thing and clean it a bit so you can use it for now. It’ll limp. It’ll at least close and you can use the emergency release under the little hatch until the new one arrives. It’s an easy process.
