@neeratanden To them Christianity is ALL about smiting and punishing the sinners, while they themselves can sin as much as they want and just say the magic words “Jesus is my Lord” and they’re clean. Charity? Justice? NO. It’s about standing triumphant laughing at the defeated.
@LauraRbnsn@Ya_Big_Dog_Unc Right. In 1980 some crime in Oakland was not news in Mobile unless it was REALLY shocking, and then maybe days later. Now it just pops up here within the hour.
@beffjezos@notadampaul@devahaz Some times like here trying to use a figure of speech blows up in our faces. Remember we out there don’t know if you’re being ironic. Just say what you mean in plain language and if people don’t get it, let that be.
@interro_9 “Escaped Canadian socialism” = “my dream is to be a techbillionaire broligarch who does not have to pay fair taxes and can hire my own H1Bs cheap.”
@interro_9 Sounds like in both countries he just cared of getting as much out of the system as he could.
And really, “but I am white”, “escape Canada”?
Besides they always tell you: you can get rejection at ANY time right to the last day.
@CameronCorduroy “We’ll just cut anything we don’t understand what it means, or the sound of which we don’t like”. No real prior analysis or plan.
And in any case what WAS freed and MORE is getting blown on wars, arches, ballrooms and self-dealt compensations
@StarDontMiss But now I have this scene in my mind…
“You mean I can slice demons open with blades and NOT worry about them recovering? Whoa I’ve found my REAL calling!”
