@prole @Teon

Unfortunately, one of the conservatives' strategies at play here is they only give "right of conscience" to people with political power over other people.

They aren't giving normal citizens the right to object to anything, they're giving unelected officers the right to torment those beneath them.

And unless you're willing to be as evil to innocent people as they are, you can't fight that war.

In the end what they're destroying here is the rule of law itself.

@SatanicNotMessianic @Deceptichum I think that's somewhat fair, but linguistically "female" is an adjective and "women" is a noun. The noun in that sentence is "singer" and female is a classifying adjective.

The original post IS stupid and has sexist overtones, but I don't think they come from word choice.

@Linkerbaan @gardylou The US is perfectly capable of multi-tasking doing unconscionable things.

@protist @K1nsey6 I agree. Biden is not engaging in the behavioral pattern called projecting.

Biden is hypocritical as hell, though, because he hasn't taken a goddamn stand for anything, save for starting new wars to defend an ongoing genocide.

@jhymesba And here's where you show you're not just okay with genocide in some vague "Stop trump" capacity, but a full-on pro-genocide monster yourself.

Slaughtering 10 thousand children, after Hamas killed a bunch of concentration camp guards isn't "self defense".

You're just evil.

@kool_newt I really wanted to let this go, but what the fuck is wrong with you that you think "I will not support genocide" is radical?

You toothless amoral cretin. Go back to your servile obsequence to whatever politicians your betters decide for you and leave me alone.

@kool_newt I'm deontologically committed to not being personally aparty to genocide, and your commitment to a utilitarian calculus where genocide is a given, is exactly why I've made that choice.

@agent_flounder I'm not going to choose between two different far right genocidal monsters.

There's no rhetorical game here. What you're asking me to do is an evil my conscience won't bear, and yours will because of your moral cowardice.

@MagicShel voting for a genocidal monster isn't standing up to fascism. There is a rot deep in your soul if you'll let yourself fall that far.

@Telorand I'll moralize any genocide denying evil fuck I want

@Telorand it's one hundred percent black and white for me and your ambivalence on the matter disgusts me.

@Telorand I think he lost the "not fascism" vote by providing direct military support to an ongoing genocide
