I wish I could live to see the day where citing the Bible in support of an argument gets you laughed out of the fucking room.

1. Those are called tankies and nobody likes them. Especially those of us on the left.

2. "Marginalizing the majority". Yeah, because white Americans are so marginalized with their hegemonic control over the state and capital.

3. Oh, no! The economy is tanking because Juan from Chiapas got a job picking oranges for a Dole contractor in California for less than federal minimum wage because his shitbird boss pays him under the table. Do you know how fucking stupid that sounds?

No, there is no world outside of politics. The personal is political. Choosing to associate with ignorant bigots says more about your values than any half-cocked appeal to moderation.

Those mental gymnastics you perform daily to justify being friends with hateful morons must be twice as exhausting.

I love telling transphobes that they're only mad because the ladies' dick's are bigger than theirs.

Have you ever considered that your buddy just might be a fucking idiot?

Reminds me of this dipshit I saw in a Starbucks once wearing one of those anti-welfare t shirts. He spent a good 20 minutes bragging to this poor young woman working the counter about how hard of a worker he is and that people on welfare are parasites.

When she asked him what he did, he sheepishly responded that he did a few hours a week of per diem work at UPS. She just rolled her eyes and asked him if he needed anything in that "buy something or get fuck out" tone.

After he left, she started talking to another employee about how much of a tool he was. The other coworker responded that he pulls this goofy anti-welfare ranting shit to try and impress new girls and that he actually lives with his parents and collects state aid himself.

I did something similar with a women I felt strongly about. I shot my shot and I got something like "I don't know if I want to be with anyone right now. Not even like a hook up." as an answer. I obviosuly took that as a "No" and let the subject drop. I wasn't angry or outraged that she didn't give me the answer I wanted. Disappointed, yes. Maybe even a bit sad.

But I harbored no animosity towards her. She didn't owe me a fucking thing. But I did believe it wasn't fair to myself or her to try to maintain a friendship when it was always going to be colored by my romantic interest in her. It didn't feel honest. So I quietly let it and her go.

About 8 months later, she found out I was leaving town for another city. She showed up at my job and basically begged me to get into her car. We drove around for a couple of hours while she brought up all the silly shit we used to joke about like running away to Europe together and similar while all but pleading with me to stay.

I had found out months back that she was sleeping around with practically all my male friends the entire time I was chasing her and even after turning me down. I reiterate that she didn't owe me anything but I felt so god damn disrespected and foolish. I just calmly said that my leaving town was set in stone and that I was seeing somebody. She didn't take it well and I legitimately thought she was going to drive us off a bridge a few times.

Tl;dr Had a crush on a girl and got turned down. End friendship because I don't want to get hurt when she sees other men. Girl comes back later begging me to stay when she finds out I'm leaving town. Doesn't know that I know she's been fucking around with my friends during the entirety of our friendship and thereafter. Tell her no and she activates berserker mode.

It's obvious they've never read any of Mike Pondsmith's stuff if they think gender and sexuality in the Cyberpunk universe is any way at all viewed from a conservative lense.

I once saw a guy on Twitter who edited the second panels compromise sign to say "You're both fucking stupid". He used it as his profile banner.

People like this actually exist in real life.

Oh, no. Someone think of the pink sauce lady and dildo sellers!

"I'm protesting American oligarchs and the surveillance state by willingly giving my personal data to Chinese oligarchs and the surveillance state. Lol, get rekt. I am very smart."

The guy who first showed me D&D when I was a kid went on to rape and murder a 90 year old woman who lived down the street during a botched robbery.
