I want to ban marriage as an institution. Ceremonies should be allowed but there should be no benefits over other relationships and living styles for monogamous couples over everyone else
Ideally this would happen in socialism where private property isn’t a thing so that doesn’t matter either

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

When the US liberated Nazi concentration camps, many queer people stayed in prison because they were seen as having broken the law. Indeed, Paragraph 175, which criminalized gay intercourse in Weimar Germany & had been expanded to include intent by the Nazis, was not abolished by the US after WWII.

Bill Clinton was the most powerful man in the world, and Monica Lewinsky was an intern and his subordinate, and in any other workplace that would be called sexual harassment, and if you don't take power dynamics into account when you talk about things like this, you don't actually understand consent

Naruto is kind of accidentally hilarious cause the entire cast being gay is plausible given the creator is so misogynistic he is just incapable of building actually intimate romantic tension between characters of the opposite sex so most emotional intimacy is same sex accidentally.

Yes, Trump is evil. But he's not uniquely so. He's not unprecedented. And we shouldn't pretend otherwise.

Andrew Jackson made reins out of human skin and committed genocide. Thomas Jefferson was also a child rapist. Jefferson, Washington, Madison, Monroe, and Jackson (among others) thought owning humans was cool. Richard Nixon and George W. Bush both have seven figures worth of deaths on their heads.

Mr “we got to ally with the neocons” trying to pretend he’s class conscious is really funny.
If only our society took major crimes by rich people as seriously as minor crimes by poor people. Ideally more seriously. But as seriously would be a big improvement.

INGRAHAM: Is affordability a voter perception issue of the economy, or is there more that needs to be done by Republicans?
TRUMP: More than anything else, it's a con job by the Democrats. Are you ready? Costs are way down.

“individual employees asked to change behavior in response to catastrophic mistakes made by their high-level leadership over the past 3-7 years” really feels like the overarching story of the current times
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

I nor any other morally sane person has any interest in “reforming” ICE or the border patrol. They are intrinsically evil organizations that must be abolished and its members imprisoned for crimes against humanity.
I understand this argument but I disagree: being precise about who is doing this stuff matters, especially since we will eventually have to determine what to do in the future if reform becomes possible.
I somewhat agree with you about political messaging, but that’s not what I’m trying to do.

It's fine and good to note that CBP is extra bad, but from a political messaging point of view, ICE is the way people identify the larger group and being Technically Correct is often just bad political messaging. It's ICE to the public. They're all on the same Gestapo mission.

I actually do understand the legal reasoning behind Justice Jackson's stay order. My point is that when people have no food, unless they can eat your legal reasoning, it's irrelevant.
