Trump is no Mandela. And something tells me Trump’s supporters would feel very different about voting for someone like Mandela…

Sure, it’s all about choices. You’ve made your own. Hopefully you’re able to enjoy your retirement. But if those choices don’t work out, hopefully you’re not bitter and blaming others.

You are placing a lot of unwarranted faith in remaining healthy into retirement and your savings being enough for whatever situation we face them.

My dad decided to save up and wait until retirement to do some travel he wanted to do. A couple years later he has a major health issue and is unable to travel like he wanted to.

I don’t begrudge anyone enjoying themselves with the time they have while they are young and healthy.

Sorry about your partner’s health. I know it’s unlikely, but hopefully things can get a bit better for y’all.

That is an incredibly callous response to the situation they described. Their partner didn’t decide to be a financial drain. It could happen to you too. All it takes is one bad day and you’re in severe medical debt.

That is hilarious. “I got an MBA from Harvard but totally believe I can get a 500-1000% return on my investment”

Up voting for linking to Dead Domain. It’s a good video with a lot of time taken to go over the various issues. Certainly doesn’t cover absolutely everything, but does a good job showing why TST ends up being more marketing than actual good.

A less problematic Satanist org fighting the good fight would be nice

I get the feeling you haven’t interacted with any trans people. Or taken any time to listen to their stories. You should really broaden your understanding.

The bigoted propaganda has worked well on you. Say hi to JK Rowling at the next meeting.

Some parents are just bigots. Some are brainwashed by religion. Some are just afraid and/or angry about anything they don’t understand. If a kid isn’t telling their parents, there is probably a VERY good reason. Kids get beaten. Kids get kicked out of their homes. Kids get sent to conversion camps. Parents can be just as terrible as anyone else.

There are a lot of parents that are not supportive of their children. Especially if they fall on the LGBTQ+ spectrum. This puts kids at risk. This will harm children.

This sure seems like a step towards a personhood bill. Which is exactly what Republicans want

Thanks for regurgitating InfoWars talking points. Alex Jones would be proud.

It’s because they listen to Alex Jones. Everything they said is an InfoWars talking point.

You’re vastly overestimating the US military’s ability to deal with an insurgency. Did we quickly “win” in Iraq? Did we quickly “win” in Afghanistan? There may be some quick quelling of fighting, but we’ve proven to be terrible at managing insurgencies.

And there’s the matter of just how many guns are present in the US. We have more guns than people. Over 400 million guns and growing. There are times where a lone gunman in Afghanistan was able to occupy an outpost for hours just by taking a few shots, moving position, taking a couple more shots, and then leaving.

Any civil war will be long, messy, and involve a LOT of different factions.

I am very ok with Trump encouraging behavior that could kill his followers. I hope they take his advice and go even if they’re very sick with COVID.

With he amount of consent involved in kink, I imagine MAGA supporters would be pretty shitty doms and subs. They don’t seem to understand or care about consent.

I wish there was a way to harness their hate and direct it against their god-king, Trump. Get them to destroy their entire movement and fracture into a million, feckless pieces.
