I will always remember Toby Keith for all of his hit songs, like:
I fucking hate Moslems
Americans are the only people who matter
I have a nice hat, also fuck Mexicans
And who can forget, the classic,
I drink from a red cup and black people are Ruining America.
Dear Christians. No one is trying to oppress you. No one cares what you do...until you try to force your bullshit on the rest of us. Don't like the pushback? Stop pushing!
Men: "Why won't women date me?"
Women: "well, have--"
Men: "Shut up, whore, no one asked you!"
This is a dramatization...but I think it could answer a few questions.
@rachel_elisse
Speaking as someone who was raised in a strict household...I was obedient, I did well in school...but I was a miserable wreck with no self-esteem and as soon as I had any freedom, found drugs and alcohol. Nurturing leads to happy, well-adjusted kids.
I'm sick of people acting like the USA is some kind of Christian homeland. Fuck off, we are a secular state with a secular constitution. You're welcome to be here, but you can not force your religious views on the rest of us. Constitution.

"But what about violent antifa that has caused zero casualties? They're radical! Rittenhouse is a hero! I'm very smart, I read 1/16 of the bible."
@jordgibby
The fact that we expect our workers to be overly-excited and deferential to asshole customers is some classist bullshit and that shit has frankly damaged me. I start to panic or disassociate now whenever, after telling someone no, they rebut. Certain tones of voices cripple me.
Telling your kid to take out the trash? Not child abuse. Telling your kid they will burn in hell for all eternity for masturbating? Child abuse. Telling them they should say thank you? Not child abuse. Disowning them for being LGBTQ? Child abuse. Hope that clears some things up.
Here's the thing: if you fed kids, made sure single moms were supported, did literally ANYTHING to prevent kids from being shot in schools, I'd respect your pro-life position. But from where I stand? You're just anti-abortion, not pro-life.
I know cis dudes don't get empathy, but imagine if a court forced you to wear a dress against your will at graduation. Would you not be outraged? Maybe, just maybe, EVERYONE SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO WEAR WHATEVER THE FUCK THEY WANT IN THE LAND OF THE FUCKING FREE!
For all the guys who didn't get the 1987 memo...don't tell women they'd be prettier if they smiled, or any variation of that. No one tells you what to do with your face, extend the same courtesy.

It was never hard for me...never once considered another woman after I met the woman who would become my wife. She left me to be with someone else. My experience, do with that what you will.

@DamResist
Also, antifa is killing my parents, and BLM has kidnapped my kids, and gas is now $60 a gallon because of terrorist Moslems and an illegal Mexican just stole my CFO job.
@besf0rt
I think it needs saying...monetary success is not an indicator of hard work or of value, no matter how much some people want to believe that to be so. Luck, but especially privilege and advantage factor heavily. People need to stop worshiping the rich.
@ashleyn1cole
I think that ALL the TIME with Dateline NBC, like, can't they do one where the narrator drops "Steve was known to family and friends as kind of a dick and hard to be around"
@sleepisocialist
Seriously. Don't believe the hype. There's no virtue in dedicating your life and time to increasing another person's wealth while you struggle to survive.
Whenever a smart young woman speaks her mind, there is an army of insecure men who try to shut them up. Props to Greta Thornburg and Amanda Gorman for resisting and continuing to speak.
Religious leaders of all churches have abused kids and y'all do nothing, but you are claws out for trans people who statistically don't abuse kids. This is Is fucked up. Clean your own dam house!
It's weird how some men can't seem to understand that I can like women as people, because they're funny and interesting. they always say, "she's not going to fuck you, bro". What is wrong with these dudes?
Someone explain this to me...Why is it more important to keep trans women from competing in sports than it is to stop school shootings? Call me crazy, but I'll take my daughter taking 2nd place over her being killed any fucking day. Weird, I know.
@ecto_fun
I was once in the middle of sex and Anti-Flag's "Die for Your Government" came on my playlist and she started to sing along, and it was...actually...really hot. Not the spirit of this thread, but I thought of it and wanted to share.
@BrandonLBradfor
White people are very good at ignoring what's happening. Very good at calling white shooters crazy and brown shooters bad. No logical thought, just reinforcing previous beliefs.

@StillNotPHarris
I may hate capitalism,but I am NOT teaming up with Nazis. Not now, not ever. May take longer, but there's always a better way to tear down an injustice system than teaming up with hate-mongers.

I can't count how many times I had to leave the kitchen to tell some dude he needs to leave my counter person alone so that she can do her job.
Dear parents, No matter what you do, if your kid is Trans, they are trans! Which means 1 of 3 things. 1) kid will be brave enough to come out. 2) kid will be miserable while trying to pretend to be cis. Or 3) kid will commit suicide. You have a hand in how this will end.

@emrazz
Asking men to be better is not "negative". It's actually a net positive...for every man who learns and embraces feminism, it's a step forward for everyone. She may be blunt and to the point, but I've never read her message as "hopelessly negative."
@piersmorgan
@cmclymer
Just because someone was born with testicles doesn't mean they're automatically good at a sport or better than others competing. This is shit logic.
Mark my words, unless enough people scream, Owasso PD will do nothing about Nex Benedict's death. A non binary indigenous kid? Yeah, they don't give a fuck.
I've seen some pretty vile comments from people who consider themselves "pro-life". You're not pro-life, you're pro forced birth. Just be honest about it.
Since some people can't see the forest for the trees, I'm going to add, Legislatively in the United States. No one is oppressing Christians, but some of y'all love forcing your religion into legislation.
Don't like trans-people? Well, I have a brilliant solution for you! It's called ignoring them and leave them the fuck alone! But how much will this cost, you ask. 50? 100? GREAT NEWS: IT'S FUCKING FREE! ORDER NOW!
@QueenMab87
It's a complicated issue with a lot of nuance and I'm uncomfortable with how hardline people are, one way or the other, because this is so complicated.
I find the arguments made by conservatives at school boards extremely weird. Like, they all seem to think that their own kids are easily influenced morons and that the left want to damage them beyond repair. You know what damages kids beyond repair? An AR-15 style weapon.

I may have closed myself off to love...but I would never paint all women with the same brush or judge them based on a few. That would be silly or stupid.
@emrazz
Right? I'm so tired of people believing that their societal conditioning is instead human nature. It's a bullshit excuse to try to avoid doing a bunch of things they are capable of doing, but don't want to.
@herosnvrdie69
Worked in restaurants and bars for 20 years. Thing I noticed? The worst, most entitled, emotionally draining, obnoxious customers are the very same people who don't think we deserve a living wage. They simply don't see us as people.
@hill_spt
I find a lot of them say, "They just weren't true believers". And I find that incredibly insulting...because I've found that most people who left "the faith" were more invested in it than their peers.
@itsmariannnna
I find it weird when people gatekeep what other's drink. Like, let people do what they like. Like, who cares if a guy likes something fruity?
It's been a year since Uvalde. And we've accomplished literally nothing since. My heart goes out to their families. Today is going to be a hard one for them. Y'all, let's try to show kindness to people today. Like, put out good karma, or some shit.
