I am live.
The cool thing about being atheist is that we’re on the side of the people who are right.
I have no issue with Catholics as an atheist. I support them in their endeavors against Trump.
Also, as an atheist I realized that it’s just two really bad organizations fighting each other. Which does in fact require popcorn.
Take it off by Ke$ha.
It’s such a good song.
Not the first time spider got a free meal from op!
Spider: thanks bro! 🫡
Just for the record that woman is extremely attractive. Any man would be lucky as hell to be with her in any meaningful way.
Ya. That doesn’t work either. What does work is doing the exact same thing they do. Get a sign write on it “Christianity is bullshit. Prove me wrong” and stand there.
Don’t look at him, don’t engage. When he does finally say something tell him that he’s oppressing your beliefs and he deserves to burn in everlasting hellfire…
Lol. This isn’t truth social dork.
But thank you for this. We needed this on Lemmy.
One thing I love about eBay is that buyers can also be rated by sellers.
That single handedly resolved many issues.
I’m just saying… You’re right.
Because the English language is rife with tradition that makes the language intentionally more complicated.
I have postulated for years that you can just get rid of ph from the language entirely and it will make absolutely no difference in how we say the words.
I have like 8 or 9 plugins for Firefox and just to make YouTube remotely usable. That doesn’t account for the 8 or 9 more on top of that to make the internet remote usable.
Lol yeah I bet it is $140 for a handful of things at Kroger and $45 at the pump plus $2,000 rent who’s having kids!!!
These kinds of posts and titles on Lemmy are a serious issue that I’ve noticed over the last 6 to 7 months.
There appears to be a serious issue with moderation and a lot of Lemmy subs.
I’m not calling for any Reddit styled moderation here. Absolutely not. I’m just saying something needs to happen here to better moderate these subs.
Ukraine, Russian, Israel would disagree with you.
The reason this is occurring is because the politicians in America want a very particular voter base. They don’t want everybody to vote. If everybody voted, Republicans would never get elected.
In Israel and the US most people support the atrocities
Next to that I said I dislike how self centered most Americans are, and I explained this comes because of education, culture, religion, etc
This is you making generalizations about the vast majority of the population of America.
I haven’t been addressing much of what you’re saying because I’ve been trying to stay on topic, but you’re employing the Kent Hovind method of misconstruing information, specifically his preferred tactic known as the Gish gallop.
I will briefly address a few points you made. First, Greenland is not a country; it is a territory of Denmark, with a population of roughly 50,000 people. Second, Iceland is somewhat more defensible, as it is often seen as a model for societal behavior, similar to New Zealand and various Scandinavian nations. Even so, it is not difficult to identify controversies within its borders. For example, Iceland has a history of miscarriages of justice, including the use of prolonged solitary confinement during investigations. Ironically, the United States shares this issue. Nevertheless, it remains a blemish on Iceland’s record.
The primary issue is that you are attempting to defend what is effectively indefensible. You do not gain the moral high ground simply by stating that you dislike America. By that logic, I could just as easily claim to dislike Iceland based on its treatment of individuals within its legal system.
You are making broad assumptions and generalizations about an entire population within one of the largest and most influential countries on Earth. Regardless of your perspective, that is an objective reality. You are grouping together the worst actions of the country and applying them wholesale, creating a framework that positions you as morally superior while condemning anyone associated with it.
Pardon the use of the comparison, but it feels warranted. You sound like Adolf Hitler. You will likely reject that characterization and respond at length to refute it, but that is how your argument comes across.
I have already spent more time on this than it merits, and I have no interest in continuing to engage. Good day.
The guy is preparing for some kind of land war. There is no need for a draft in the United States unless we’re fighting against China.
And even then the US military is hopelessly outnumbered. The issue is that China doesn’t want armed conflict. As far as I can tell, their only real goal is to do business nowadays. Especially considering that both the Chinese and American economies are so closely tied together.
I don’t think that this current administration knows what they’re doing. They’re flopping around like they’re sinking in water.
I think the only solution is the 25th amendment.
Back in the day r/showerthoughts was extremely rigidly moderated.
I have come to the conclusion that we need moderation like this here as well.
To clarify and justify the above statement, although technically anything a person thinks is a thought this really doesn’t fit the spirit of the sub. This is a statement or a joke or a pun or all of the above.
Heh. Explains why he couldn’t put a shirt on. The real mystery though are the pants.
Large brands, like MacDonalds, avoid controversy because their business model depends on appealing to the widest possible audience. Their goal is to keep people consuming whether that means buying products, eating, or staying at their establishments.
Supporting movements like “No Kings” or any form of protest risks alienating a significant portion of potential customers.
There is no upside to taking a stance. Only risk to the bottom line.
