I remember people saying that libraries in the US can't ban people watching porn on the library computers because freedom of speech or something and that homeless people deserve to watch porn too. I want to believe they were yanking my chain but it just sounds very American hah

[–] Klear@quokk.au 54 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They're yanking more than just a chain.

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

What else? Are they yanking the levers at the chain-making factory?

They should add a little beaded curtain that gives access to PCs that are designated crank stations.

designated crank stations

lol

beaded

Someone needs to be hired to wash ‘em in between uses (could stink up the whole library)

[–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 5 points 3 months ago

The crank stations? Or their users?

If you’re homeless in a Republican state, jerking off in the library, you get a free bus ride to a democrat state. Then everyone from the Republican state criticizes the state you were sent to for allowing homeless people to jerk off in the library.

The only reason this is easily verified to be false, is that the word "bus" was included in a statement regarding the USA

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 10 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

You're thinking of public transit. They're talking about privately owned long haul buses (Greyhound) which are definitely still a thing, and Republicans have absolutely loaded them up with homeless people to ship them off to another state.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

No, it’s actually quite easy to verify.

[–] Saapas@piefed.zip 10 points 3 months ago (2 children)

They are joking about the poor state of public transit in the US

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 14 points 3 months ago

Which is fair, but the aforementioned Republicans don't use public transportation. They use taxpayer dollars to charter busses or planes to get undesirables out of their state.

[–] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 2 points 3 months ago

especially when the origin state is red

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

greyhounds exist

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Also free, we can charge them somehow maybe ~~slavery~~ indentured servitude?

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

i want to disagree with you but i've worked in homelessness before.
