I am glad there were some interactions between ourselves and our detractors at the sh.it instance and hope that there continues to be cross-instance dialog.

And fyi, trans women are biologically able to breastfeed their children. There is medication for biological women and trans women that makes it possible for them to produce milk without being pregnant.

Well, isn’t this a monstrosity, lol.

If a heterosexual man was taking pills to lactate and feed his kids, I would want to wash my eyes with soap…

For very similar reasons this unnatural practice is repugnant.

But those kind of posts aren’t constructive discussions about the topic, their only purpose seems to be to paint “trannies” as pedos and child abusers by implying that the only possible reasons for a trans woman to feed her child is sexual pleasure, which if true would obviously be bad…

Yeah, I mean, I know that you respect transpeople and are supportive of their lifestyle. I do not want to illegalize or actively pursue some sort of conflict with them, but I also want to state my opinions about it frankly.

I am sure that there are people on the Left who LOL and upvote at memes that have violent fates for “Nazis” and many were likely chortling with glee at the fire memes about the dead billionaires in the sub…

But isn’t it sealioning if I then go to your instances and say that you are all violent revolutionaries with homicidal fantasies?

You have upvoted posts where the top comment is “trannyfags should be lined up and shot.”… This is public content, so I’m not sure why you want to deny that stuff like that is going on here and is obviously tolerated…

I actually have no memory of upvoting something as grotesquely worded as that, but perhaps the attached meme was funny.

I don’t know what your opinion is, but there are definitely people here who apparently want death for trans people, or drag queens, or homosexuals, or leftists…

I do not want death or coercion for anybody.

I don’t think the usage of the N-word is what concerns people most…

Then this makes the situation a bit dishonest.

Use the N-word and you are an evil Nazi, but It’s even worse if you just say shit we don’t like and are not saying the N-word because now you’re ultra-dangerous cryptofash

Not a really fun game to play, IMO

Right, I hear you. I dislike tyranny but I also understand how different societies have different standards and models for government. This does not mean that I think their forms of government are justified, but I also do not think that looking back and defecating on the models of very different societies that are formed by very different circumstances is the best look.

For that matter, there are even far left authoritarians that can be admired on some level. Ho Chi Minh has some very redeemable characteristics but I also dislike his persecution of the Catholics, for instance. I also do not look at guys like former Pres. Morales of Bolivia and the current Brazilian President as also having a lot of good qualities though neither of them would stack up at all as Libertarians…

So I also do not balk at occasionally admiring non-Libertarian rightwing authoritarians when it is relevant.

What does this have to do with dictators…?

Are you saying… if we hate Communist dictators, we should also hate Fascist dictators…?

Plus this is why people upvote the drag show meme:

Not because we think we need to interfere in the lives of gay people - nothing can be done really to make them choose anything differnet, it is the way of their life, let them live it - but because we dislike groomers, and that is what a “family friendly” drag show is based around, more or less.

What dictator is being worshiped?

Yae

Eliminate downvotes

I do not think there are real murder fantasies going on here at all - I am not sure what this is in reference to…

I actually think we are a real Libertarian instance and we have some red pilled Libertarians or “Alt Libertarians” who occasionally say very offensive shit, but the goal has never been nor will it ever be to impose anything on anyone.

Also… If you look at the ModLog… You can go back and see that there have actually been isntances where comments have been removed solely because the N-word was used.

This is really wild - it was approved then removed.

Yeah I am honestly shocked by his behavior since he was so good with fans and such a lovable guy with the locals.

It seems uncharacteristic of what you would expect from him so I certainly hope that he gets his act together.

That is interesting, I am unfamiliar with that.

… and this is some mind blowing content:

When Roe was first decided, most of the Southern evangelicals who today make up the backbone of the anti-abortion movement believed that abortion was a deeply personal issue in which government shouldn’t play a role. Some were hesitant to take a position on abortion because they saw it as a “Catholic issue,” and worried about the influence of Catholic teachings on American religious observance.

Shortly after the decision was handed down, The Baptist Press, a wire service run by the Southern Baptist Convention — the biggest Evangelical organization in the US — ran an op-ed praising the ruling. “Religious liberty, human equality and justice are advanced by the Supreme Court abortion decision,” read the January 31, 1973, piece by W. Barry Garrett, The Baptist Press’s Washington bureau chief.

Religious bodies and religious persons can continue to teach their own particular views to their constituents with all the vigor they desire. People whose conscience forbids abortion are not compelled by law to have abortions. They are free to practice their religion according to the tenets of their personal or corporate faith.

The reverse is also now true since the Supreme Court decision. Those whose conscience or religious convictions are not violated by abortion may not now be forbidden by a religious law to obtain an abortion if they so choose.

This is really unique my friend. A lot of people abhor it - of course, many Koreans love it, but I think this has to do with the fact that it matches a lot of Korean food fairly well, is cheap, and… IDK, it is an acquired sort of taste…

Seeing a non-Korean say it’s their favorite put me over the moon today, lol.

That’s just wild - you a Korean or in Korea or sth?

I think it may have been pointed out by someone else here, but a lot of people are not even into legacy admissions. The reasons that conservatives support it at all actually is just because they support your right to do what you want with your own property.

I consider it generally good if more slots at schools are open for my kids, but I respect their rights to do what they want…

Plus…

LOL…

The only reason we were able to overturn affirmative action was because it was race based discrimination which was illegalized in 1967 - something that Libertarians oppose.
