  • Moral imperative ≠ logical imperative. There’s really no way around it.

    People voted for Trump because he told them their issues are going to be addressed. You cannot tell someone that’s willing to vote for a wannabe fascist that their rights are somehow being secured three dominoes removed from trans rights. That is an abstract concept. Despite the fact that children should be capable of understanding abstract concepts, these are people who clearly cannot.

    You have to appeal to them first because there are more of them. They are selfishly stupid and the simple virtue of your message is not enough to persuade them.




  • Well yes, the man himself may not have gone “woohoo, genocide, yippie!!” but there was absolutely an active genocide happening while the U.S. continued to give Israel billions in weapons, ammunition, vehicles, etc.

    That being said, we’re gonna see it get a whole lot worse now that Trump is allowing Netanyahu to take the gloves off.

    I had no idea, I don’t really think of my family as having dark hair - but our hair is brown. Why are blonde hair follicles unaffected by laser treatment?

    Edit: it seems like it’s less to do with them being unaffected and more to do with how the targeting system for the lasers work? That seems like something that could be improved one day.
