Death Penalty being expensive is only a problem that liberals created because they think the absolute scum of the earth need to be killed in the most “humane” way of pumping them full of expensive chemicals. Christ, one shot to the head, shallow grave. Definitely costs less than 25 years of food and shelter.
I completely stumbled into my favorite book of high school. My final was to write about ANY book EVER suggested by the AP exam… I landed on “The Death of Ivan Ilych” because it was short and holy hell is it good. Thought-provoking, beautiful, inspiring. It’s really a must-read for those who contemplate their own death and religion at all.
“Anti-racist” is just the extreme opposite of stereotypical “conservative” (like Senator Joe Biden and Margaret Sanger, lol) racism. Instead of thinking non-whites are evil, whites are evil. So, this headline is equivalent to saying “[celebrity whose political opinion doesn’t matter] is not a neo-nazi, but now is the time for him to become an anarchocommunist terrorist.”
Even if you bite the bullet on trans propaganda, those who transition were always who they transitioned to just “born in the wrong body”. Therefore “girls” who were born boys were always girls, and were never boys. It’s only the even more extreme and ridiculous non-binary gender fluid propaganda that asserts this BS
- They give in the paragraph that the median American household income is $66k, which kinda shows outright that they’re wrong in labeling it a myth, given nearly all but 3 small ethnic groups (one of which is arguably not Asian) are above the median.
Am I not wrong in seeing this as a self-own? Nearly every myth they give is provably true GIVEN THEIR OWN DATA. It’s a myth that AA households get more money, but every ethnic subset of Asian is above medium income except 3 (and one of them is Pacific Islander, which is arguably Oceania and not Asia) with some of the larger groups nearly doubling the median. It’s a myth that Asians immigrate correctly, but here’s a graph that shows 50% of illegal immigrants are Mexican and even the larger ethnic groups don’t even make up 5%
Reminds me of the old conversation: "Black people created a double standard that they get to say the n word as a term of endearment but white/asian people are immediately slandered as racist if they even think about saying it" "Sure you can! Say the N word, cracker!" It does nothing to prove their point (I'd argue it proves the contrary), and yet somehow people think it does.
To think that changing your physical form through invasive surgery and hormone treatment would be able to make your mental anguish go away... it's something else. I mean, by definition, people who choose to transition are in a very susceptible place. It's a lot of people thinking social acceptance leads to personal acceptance, when they're practically uncorrelated. It's only those who are weak willed that think that they can only be happy if everyone else likes them. It really is disturbing that such a practice is just accepted, this sort of indoctrination. Person feels self-conscious and depressed > Person shuts self off from healthy support systems (if they had any to begin with) > Person becomes internet addict > Cult tells person that their problems are due to social norms > Cult manipulates person to think that their thoughts about wanting to live a different life are signs of "dysphoria" > Cult feigns concern and tells them transitioning will help solve their depression > body mutilation > darker depression > 40% suicide rate.
Dear god, it’s fine if your character is disabled or lame if it makes sense in the world. The best way to doing it is either make it an old guy with a cane, or an artificer or something in a mech suit or something. Wheelchairs are just not fantastical
My ACTUALLY COMMUNIST friend said that the Falcon lecturing at the end of it was too much. Still fawned over the other "evil white privilege" scenes. I personally liked how it presented a group of people with the same known goal but each one had a very different reasoning to stop it and a solution to ending it.
It’s like when gay men come out and somehow inherit a Cali girl accent. The irony that their desire for them to “stand out” and “be themselves” makes them deeply driven to fully conform with a different style of expression.
That’s a completely fine justification of NOT having the death penalty. But, you either don’t have the death penalty because of that or you admit that the worst of the worst don’t deserve painless deaths.
