@DawnsMission Wearing face masks is and has been a cultural norm in east Asia, maybe she or her family have been doing this long before the pandemic. And would you look at that, east Asian countries have lower rates of respiratory illness, so it’s not like they don’t work
@divinethree333 If you want your kids learning about the Bible, send them to a Christian school. Public school is a governmental thing so it falls under the separation of church and state
@NotoriousPyro@kartek_makaroon@LauraBeckerReal They weren’t saying being trans and liking pineapple on pizza were comparable in every single way. A metaphor doesn’t have to be infallible on every level if you’re only using it to argue one point
@LauraBeckerReal@kartek_makaroon This metaphor was engaging with the argument. You not being trans doesn’t mean it’s not real, just like someone not liking pineapple on pizza doesn’t mean it’s impossible to like pineapple on pizza
@ReviewsPossum Calling a story unrealistic because it doesn’t align with the supposedly more likely scenario you completely made up is just a brand new level of media illiteracy
@Maga4liberty Judith Curry doesn’t say climate change itself is a hoax. She says the rate at which people say it’s becoming a detrimental issue is overblown. Even the one source that supposedly agrees with you doesn’t agree with you
@Varik_Hedgehog@ChudMaxxed007 Why, if you don’t look down on gay people, do you think showing straight people in kids media is advertising romance while showing gay people is advertising sex?
@Varik_Hedgehog@ChudMaxxed007 But what does that prove? We want to be seen as equals, us not being different from straight people outside of sexuality isn’t a bad thing
@Varik_Hedgehog@ChudMaxxed007 I don’t understand how you think this supports your argument, or any argument for that matter. Being gay is what makes gay people different from straight people, what a concept
@Sassafrass_84 We’re actually very consistent if you have a brain. Michelle says she is a woman, she is a woman. A trans woman says she is a woman, she is a woman.
@Sassafrass_84 I don’t support Karmelo Anthony by any means, but I also think the people who are using his name to justify being racist are just as bad as the people saying he did nothing wrong. Also calling democrats “soft on crime” and then voting for a felon is weird and you know it
@FunktionError@ReviewsPossum What do you mean “one of those countries where the people think they deserve human rights”? Everyone deserves human rights
