Hey acceleratiionists and people who Harris "wasn't good enough" for, remember that you could've helped stop this shit before it even happened. Now people are going to suffer and die under this regime that you helped bring to power

If we don't ban trans people, then Trump could end up mistakenly raping a dude, and we can't have that! What would he even grab them by?

A subtle aspect is that many of these people do like fucking trans women, but those trans women need to be vulnerable and disposable. When job discrimination is legal/encouraged, trans people turn to prostitution.

A lot of the conservative Christian machine is really a massive D/s kink. Punishing women for having sex, murdering trans women for making their dick hard.

This is such a non-issue. All the shit we could be working on, but we're going to pick on school kids trying to figure themselves out.

‘Tell me I’m part of an in-group. That I’m great and that I belong and that nothing will change that. Then show me an out-group, and make them suffer so I can feel even better about being in the in-group.’

That is what Conservatives have been asking for. That is what they really want. And he’s giving it to them, as a thank-you for getting him into office.

See also: ‘He’s not hurting the right people!’

The bonus is this also advances the Nazi agenda.

They need to tell people they are doing something and solving issues and it's alot easier to solve issues you create then those that actually plauge society.

Crickets from conservatives who love to screech about free speech

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 hours ago

if you're still waiting on conservatives to change their tune because you pointed out their hypocrisy, then you kinda just deserve whatever you get.

So guys, unrelated question.

Say I have a bear that isn't a protected species that wanders around the area. Say I'm a lot of bit nervous of this bear destroying stuff towards the edge of my property, but my property edge is pretty damn far.

What kind of equipment would I need to take care of this bear, if the agencies and law enforcement wont do anything to protect me or my vulnerable neighbors from this bear?

Well, a Henry in 45-70 should handle it just swimmingly. Find someone who knows how to process the carcass first, though, they are HUGE!

That said, cops tend to dislike it when you shoot at them. Locals and ICE.

I’m assuming this is a sort of coded question about how to defend trans people.

But since I’m not able to decypher it here’s an honest answer to your wildlife query.

The wildlife will live as it sees fit. If you don’t want it on your property, you will need to invest in fencing. If you wish to protect yourself from the wildlife, it means avoiding confrontations and encounters, and possibly carrying pepper spray.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 hours ago

Firearms. They’re asking about firearms.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah honestly the best advice for encountering bears is basically "don't"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 hours ago

Also applies to conservatives, or Conservatives.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Encoded question? Never. It just seemed to be useful context to ask this sort of question.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

See that makes me think you're being sarcastic, there is an encoded question, and that was an encoded answer to the the answer. Also that I really do not understand trans-coded language.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Im not trans. And I had no idea there was trans coded language which is pretty fucking cool.
