In 2016, the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum had to ask visitors to stop playing Pokémon Go inside.
The museum was listed as a PokéStop.
An image also circulated showing Koffing, a poison-gas Pokémon, appearing there.
Some of the anger I saw from pro-lifers responding to my tweets was essentially, "how dare you insinuate that pro-life people would abort a child with Down Syndrome!"
Guys, I've been in the care of souls business for 18 years now. And when you're in the care of souls business, something you see often is people who have been lifelong, devout Christians completely bail on the faith the SECOND holding to it requires them to suffer.
People who have spent decades faithfully coming to worship will leave forever the second their kids come out to them and tell them they have to choose between holding to the Bible and having a relationship with their kids. People who have always upheld what the church teaches about cohabitation immediately reject it the second their kids start shacking up.
People who lament the evils of divorce will get divorced the second they think they can come out of the situation better off, and they will give you every rationalization for why the words of Jesus don't apply to them. Ask your pastors about this. Dudes will leave their congregations, go to another down the street to another congregation with their mistress on their arm and act like nothing happened, utterly convinced that God supports them in doing so.
People who have thanked you for preaching against the idolatrous nature of youth sports that keeps kids out of church on Sundays will immediately embrace the idol when their kids have the opportunity to join a travel team. And so on.
And yes, when people who have boldly and faithfully stood against the evils of abortion find themselves carrying an unwanted child? They will often employ the very same vile rationalizations that they have condemned fifty trillion times before.
Do people who identify as pro-life have fewer abortion than pro-choicers? Of course. But with love and respect, you are absolutely clueless if you think that a notable percentage of women having abortion weren't pro-life identifying ladies until the moment their desire for abortion overpowered their faith and convinctions.
And, more to the point, if you are offended by this assertion because you know would never in a million billion years ever do this, you are clueless to the power of the sinful nature that lurks within you. If you think you would stand where they fell because you are more pious, more devout, more devoted, etc...well, pride comes before destruction.
American citizens who criticize Jews or Israel will now be monitored by the FBI.
"We will monitor social media and check your bank accounts. I have 40 analysts working 24/7, 7 days a week"
young couples trying to raise a family in our clown economy are admirable bordering on heroic, so if you have kids, its actually a patriotic duty to invade spaces where boomers, "childfree" redditors, disney adults, other sorts of foul beasts, cavort and stuff their putrid jowls
Leftism is a secular religion with a very strong concept of sin and penance but no concept of forgiveness, grace or redemption. They appeal to a nebulous morality grounded on absolutely nothing, allowing it to shift at any time and leave you damned.

Have you ever thought about the Pokémon definition of a “poacher”? It's basically just a dystopian corporate monopoly.
In the lore, you are branded a poacher simply for using nets, traps, or cages instead of a Poké Ball.
The entire system is a massive "Big Brother" compliance checkpoint:
• The Tech Monopoly: The law basically mandates that you must use patented corporate technology to legally interact with wildlife.
• The Global Registry: The real crime isn't the catch itself—it is dodging the database. Poké Balls automatically tag every capture to a centralized Trainer ID grid. Catching a Pokémon with a net keeps it completely untraceable and off the books.
• The Safari Loophole: People claim poachers are criminals because they over-hunt, but Ash caught an entire herd of 30 Tauros in a single afternoon. Because he paid a corporate entrance fee and used officially licensed Safari Balls, it was perfectly legal.
The Pokémon League just wants absolute regulatory control over a heavily monetized digital capture grid.
I genuinely miss when being a nerd with nerdy hobbies was stigmatized by the general public.
I much preferred being made fun of by normies for having weird interests to now having my hobbies dumbed down by corporate in a vain attempt to appeal to them.

The literal #1 most suicidal belief you can have is that you’re an introvert/socially anxious/don’t like people.
I was this guy until around 22. Thought I was better than everyone else and actively chose not to be social.
Life completely changed when I started interacting with random people and just trying to make them laugh. Opportunities opened up, made relationships with people I never thought possible. Everything was just less dull and boring. Every day was fun for no reason.
You cannot be a lone wolf. It’s a mental illness.
Life is meaningless without people.
