      Dunno, dt got found guilty of basically rape. Even the judge stated that is was rape, but didnt fit the legal defintion so they couldnt charge him with actual rape, just sexual assault. Either way, socially speaking i dont see the difference between sexual assault and rape, youd pretty much deserve death either way. So its not wild to say that America elected an officially charged rapist as president.

    But he wants to increase taxes on the rich, make free public transport and cheaper groceries. That’s “communism” and it’s actually worse than raping children and murder.

      Poe’s law. Please for the love of fuck label your sarcasm. It’s really obvious, fine, whatever, but do you really want someone to think you actually believe that? Cause they will, this is the internet. Some fuck face will point to your comment and the upvotes and think “they just like me! And people like them. Surely this place is safe for me” and suddenly we’re all dick-and-clit deep in nazis. And no one wants nazis near them, let alone their various genitals.

      Good lord, if we go that route that’s just going to introduce us to more horrible things like healthcare, education, and safety nets for everyone, or (gasp) everyone having an equal voice in representation. Oh no!

      Children can’t be raped if they’re in the mine. Just saying. (/S)

    Well not both. I say this because I’m glad Jay Jones got elected in Va even with him texting that a political opponent needed 2 bullets in the head.

    Obviously that is locker room talk and we’ve already determined that it’s not a disqualifing factor. I’m glad he stayed in the race. We don’t need quitters.

      Dunno what side hes on, but given my knowledge of US politicians, I would say its a safe assessment that he was probably right.

    Can somebody reupload the image at a non-feddit.org host? Feddit is incredibly annoying in that it geoblocks most of Asia.

    Wait what? Why?

    Tap for spoiler

    Well apparently asia is the source of a lot of scraping traffic, and they’re an European focused website, so they went with the nuclear option of blocking the entire continent and change. Never mind that as one of the bigger instances on the Threadiverse, they’re degrading the user experience for an entire continent. I brought the issue up to them previously, but they didn’t seem too concerned about it.

    Example of degraded user experience for Asia:

      I’m sorry you seem to hate her. Never met her, myself, and I’ve never spoken to her at all.

    Never say that. What you really mean is “that you aren’t sure rapes children and promote murder”.

    Don’t trust them. Don’t give them an inch - they’re all politicians, they’re all part of the system. Never assume morality or positive behavior. Just assume that they keep it more tightly hidden.
