Good, sell your car and ride the bus/train. If you live somewhere that isn’t feasible, move somewhere it is.

Every pothole that makes keeping a car untenable is actually the hero every traffic cop thinks he’ll be someday.

People who think metaphysically about sex are not ever going to see the logical inconsistencies in their world view. To them that actually is different, because to them sex is magic and not biochemistry.

Because I have dignity and self-respect.

Not of you’re publicly announcing that you’re so backwards-minded that you look down on sex workers, you don’t. Imagine being that gross of a person and proud of it.

How so?

What’s the difference between Halle Berry getting an extra million to take her top off in Swordfish and an Onlyfans girl, aside from the number of zeroes on the check?

It’s something young women/men should be aware of that they automatically exclude themselves from a huge part of the dating pool when they make a decision like that.

And nothing of value is lost. Who wants to date someone with weird moralistic hangups about sex, unless they share those hangups?

Please explain what those differences are without using any magical thinking that places sex into a sacred sphere of human activity that is holy and sacrosanct?

Or don’t. My point is you can tell how serious a person is when they start talking about the morality of sex by replacing every mention of sex in their point with “boxing”. It’s still a highly physical one-on-one activity that’s a crime of both participants haven’t consented, so if the exact same argument doesn’t make sense when made about boxing then they are thinking magically about sex and not materialistically.

Because most cultures have been heavily influenced by cultures descended from the bronze age sheep fuckers who came up with the idea of virginity as a way of ensuring paternity and maximizing the price they could charge for selling their preteen daughters to old men.

That actually makes much more sense than the “when the roof collapsed” nonsense, bcs a proper sprinkler system should have kept the roof from collapsing

Opposing genocide doesn’t bring in that sweet, sweet donor money.

Read more, watch fewer videos. Bonus: books cannot contain unskippable ads.

So that’s a solid “no” on having any argument at all besides “nuh uh!” And “I don’t like the way the things you’re saying makes me feel so ill dismiss them without actually addressing them”?

Your stance would be believable of you’d just ignored what I said. You felt the need to respond, but don’t have the capacity to respond to the substance. So you pick a line of hyperbole and argue passionately against that. It’d be funny if there weren’t 300 million people just like you helping destroy the world so they can go watch the game in peace.

And regardless the implication you’re making is that everyone not exactly aligned with you doesn’t care about the future and spends all their time doing frivolous shit.

Not everyone, just the ones who attend “protests” on weekends that have police permits and march with people carrying signs that say “If Kamala has won we’d be at brunch”.

Because we know that. You don’t understand what the problem is, so you let the people profiting from the problem convince you that the real problem is that the “good guys” lost the election rather than the fact that there are no good guys and the people selling the narrative steal a little more from you every administration regardless of which team of Wall St Fellating shitbags won the big game. Elections in the US are just more bread and circuses, the Epstein class owns both parties tip to tail.

I love how you only ever respond to the vibe of something and not what was actually said, it’s so totally Schumerist.

If it’s got you out of your brunch spot and in the streets protesting US imperialism then it’s already done more than four years of Kopmala would have.

Must be, since you couldn’t address any of the actual substance of what I said and had to nit pick a bit of hyperbole.

They don’t "realize* it because it’s a bullshit lie made up to keep you in line.

you are OK with terrorism. This is my total lack of surprise.

And you’re obviously ok with genocide, apartheid, and settler-colonialism. In comparison to that, “terrorism” isn’t that bad. Especially when it’s only “terrorism” when the victims fight back.

The system is not broken. It’s functioning exactly as intended.

who could’ve easily been denied power if people’s brains were operating at even 15% capacity.

No, who could’ve continued operating in the back rooms while their more polite servants get on TV and whinge about how there’s nothing they can do to improve things even with majorities in both houses and the Presidency. But at least they’d have the decency to keep the slurs in those back rooms and only murder brown kids so you could go back to brunch in peace.
