Hey folks? This thread is proof that there's at least some hope for salvaging our system! Thank you both for listening to each other, and finding common ground!

Why call me a "stupid fucking shithead"? I agree those are all problems that need to be dealt with, but had jack shit to do with the original post. Sorry I wanted to stay on topic, now kindly get the fuck off my feed.

I think I'm arguing with people defending pedophiles. Fuck political affiliations.

You're the one who brought liberals into this. It's only natural that their foil would come up. In reality, my only argument here was that "pedophiles are shit". You're the one who made it political by slapping the liberal label on it. Get over yourself and make a point already. We're waiting.

And if Conservatives had any compassion, they wouldn't have voted for a dictator who is actively seeking to strip the rights of American citizens.

Whatever, lol. I'm not going to lower and debase myself so much as to hurl personal insults. It's just not worth my time. Pedophiles deserve prison time, and the fact that this is a political discussion is nothing short of fucking disgusting. Good day.

Our own thoughts that pedophiles deserve prison sentences? Are you arguing something to the contrary?

It's really not. If there's a person on that list, regardless of political affiliation, they should be locked up.

Did you think that was going to be a debate? Anyone listed in the epstein files should be locked up. Period.

Yeah, I refuse to bring children into this shit heap of a society.

Yes, because she's advocating for making people feel uncomfortable and unsafe. That is objectively evil. She's promoting a culture of fear and hatred around something she doesn't understand, against a group of people who have done nothing wrong.

Because she's a bigot who supports bigoted organizations. Being a bigot and a good person, as it turns out, are mutually exclusive. If an entire group of people look at you and feel like they wouldn't feel safe or comfortable in a room with you, you might be a bad person.

Because he is cherry-picking what does and doesn't matter, at a guess. But I also think that's your point🤣

I'm not going to lie. All I really know are two things:

1. "Life...uh...finds a way"
2. I refuse to let myself hate or fear that which I don't understand.

The presence of Bigotry is something that can be proven by actions without meeting a person. If someone burns a cross on a person's front lawn, I don't need to meet that person to know they're a bigot. If someone wants to force a woman to use the men's room, I don't need to meet them.

Oh, for sure! Sex and gender are far complicated than any of us truly understand.

Because Elongated Muskrat isn't a scientist?

Rowling is absolutely a hateful bigot. The fact that you don't want to be called one is funny as fuck. I would trust any trans person I know with my theoretical kids before I trust that walking pile of degenerate human refuse.

"At will" is not the correct word choice here..."Per biological and reproductive need" would be more accurate. It's not like the fish wakes up, says "I'mma be a girl today", and presto. It takes energy to make that shift, so it's usually only done in cases of drastic imbalance of the sexes.

To the potato!

I wouldn't call those friends, or even acquaintances, so much as "people I occasionally share space, and have to maintain civility with", despite their cult actively wanting to erase me and mine.

With this in mind, you can have something with an unreal amount of nudity, but with no intent to help anyone get off, and I would say it's not really porn. In the case of Nort, it's a slice of life comic, and occasional nudity is a part of life. That provides a sense of realism, more than anything.

I feel like porn is more about the intent. If content is made specifically to help someone get off, then it's porn, regardless of the degree of nudity. If you make an 8 hour mouth noise reel, because you intend for people to get off to it, then you are both a monster, but also have made porn.

Who's promoting their sexuality? There are a BUNCH of varying identities represented in the stories presented here. The messages contained in these books are about self-acceptance, self-love, and personal identity. You would know that if you took a second to read them.

What if children see what? Wholesome stories about self-acceptance and love that isn't bound by gender or romantic biases?

Additionally, just because someone is civil to someone's face, doesn't mean they don't have a ghost costume in their closet.

Look at that recycled AI trash. As much as I agree with the premise, at least put some effort into it...

The joke is that it could just as easily all be one dude.

Only good painting Hitler ever made.

But, and hear me out here, are they as likely to be shitheads if we treat them the way they treat those they would seek to oppress? Even if it's only in our heads?
