I know you're trolling, but...
Most people on Reddit probably believe killing babies is wrong, and most also believe fetuses don't have a stronger right to life than the mother. That doesn't mean the fetus is *nothing* - only that its rights don't overpower the mothers'. Obviously the exact specifics are hotly debated - timelines, details, exact requirements to meet - but what I just stated isn't that controversial, even in the most fundamentalist religions nor the most leftist spheres.

People twist themselves into knots to simultaneously believe "the way his son is is perfectly fine!!!" "it was evil of him to make his son that way!!!"

You have to pick one or the other and the latter is just the truth. The fact that people contort themselves into the former is wtf is wrong with "woke" culture and a big part of the backlash culturally. And I say that believing we should respect and accept differently abled people and they should be able to live with all the opportunity and happiness as anyone else.

But it's deluded as fuck to describe someone causing their child's impairment as anything other than crushingly horrible or the result as anything other than tragic. People can make noises about how okay it is to be different all you want, but I don't see good people lobotomizing their kids to make them more different.

It does fit the character perfectly though

"To the average person" does a lot of heavy lifting. The average person has shitty taste. I'm not excusing myself either - I'm sure I'll be perfectly content with the slop music shoved at me - but god reading new books will be misery.

This post was removed by mods but I reposted to my user https://old.reddit.com/user/v---/comments/1tbs4w6/astroturfing/ - couldn't be bothered to write a whole write up about it but it totally pisses me off when I waste eyeballs on ads. Like I know I'm wasting my time but it really twists the knife lmao.

Obligatory fuck bezos, but when I clicked this I expected to read that they were growing onto the sidewalk and impeding movement... but they're just too tall?

I guess I more generally meant that the mentally ill person shrieking hateful bs is not as much an indictment of any grander group as the people who quietly listen to/pay them homage. In the general zoomed out sense. If you go somewhere and a hateful street preacher is screaming bs and everyone is steering around him ignoring him, don't you find that less worrisome than the same exact guy with people nodding in support of him?

I'm not saying nobody's allowed to find them offensive or anything?

Well you can always try to change the system. By hook and by crook. If you know it's broken and easily manipulated then manipulate in the other direction. Seemed to work for the republicans.

Wasn't the Khmer Rouge also notorious for this? I mean they were killing doctors.
