Too bad Isreal doesn't care, and will almost certainly indiscriminately bomb them anyways.

And then one of the men, pretty forcefully, like, pushed me out of the way on my shoulder,” Dingus said. “And then, you know, next thing I know, that kind of just, I think, sparked the rest of them. ... They all just kind of started attacking me at that point, dragging me back through the floor and continuously punching me in my head.”

They essentially gang assaulted Mr. Dingus, and you believe it's only because of some PDA? I highly doubt it, and believe fully that this is a case of homophobia. And almost certainly a hate crime too.

The downvotes are people shaming and ridiculing you for your stupid opinions. So you're getting exactly what you wanted.

The little fascist went to a counter protest with a rifle as an agitator. He was looking for a reason to use that gun, and definitely manufactured the exact thing he was looking for. Don't be such an utter dipshit.

Don't really care about some corporations losing out on their margins after nickel and diming everyone as high as they possibly can. Especially if the end result is someone or multiple people eating.

It's not "cancel culture": it's calling out their horrific beliefs. If gettings called out on having horrible thoughts leads you to becoming more extreme in those thoughts then you're just a bad person.

Plus JK Rowling is still rolling in millions of dollars. She has every resource and avenue to learn better, and actively chooses not to. Fuck JK Rowling and her transphobic bullshit.

Here's an NPR article interviewing a known geneticist and talking about Trans Athletes. Their general consensus is that there is a lack of data to make an assertion one way or the other for if trans athletes have an edge. And that's without taking into account the vast differences between each individual trans person and where they're at genetically/hormonally. Trans athletes aren't a monolith that are all the same, they can have fundamentally different circumstances and genetics between each person.

Honestly any automatic ban of trans-athletes is stupid. Michael Phelps has a natural genetic advantage when it comes to swimming, but no one of note is coming for his gold medals or saying he can't compete.

I'm not an expert on Star Wars lore, but I think it's to dehumanize them and add them to the greater force of the Empire. The Empire doesn't need individuals for its troopers, they need tools and pawns that will follow orders when given.

And since they're just pawns, typically recruited en masse, why even cash out for good armor when you can just mass produce the bear minimum for dirt cheap? That's my take anyways

This is the same country that decriminalized Domestic Violence leading to a fall in reporting from women as a result.

People who haven't read the article aside: I do not believe the Russian State member has women's best interest in mind with this proposal.

I imagine you're talking about this and every single member of "Mom's for Liberty" absolutely deserves it.

Gender is irrelevant, it's more the being an absolute shit stain on humanity by being bigoted and wanting to ban books part.

Edit: Here is an article linking to the books banned by Florida since OP is lying saying Florida hasn't banned books.

Everybody repeat after me: Thank you MatPat

Minimum Wage workers/general laborers are the literal backbone of any work force. Their value is literally instrumental to any and all industries. These industries would simply collapse if minimum wage workers are taken out of the equation. And that's without pointing out that wage isn't indicative of how important someone is to a workplace.

And automation doesn't mean much when you still need an entire force to upkeep all of those machines. And I'd bet my right arm and left leg that if wage pricing is left to corporations that they'll place said workers at minimum wage if they can get away with it.
