that's what i figured as well. all i've been doing is posting about how cops are bad, bikes are good, and i like funk music. real fuckyouinparticular vibes, huh?
ik this is a shitpost but that's like the worst possible way to handle that situation
i'm like a third-generation none, my parents were both raised secular and their marriage was officiated by a guy from the a.h.a., but i had some christian classmates in like kindergarten or first grade (public school in california) and i sorta half remember asking my mom some question about something i'd heard them say at some point or another, and what she did was she explained to me (in 5yo detail, anyway) what christianity even was, which i didn't really understand at that point, and that was enough to make it clear to me how silly it all was.
one of the easiest ways to figure out who to trust, imo, is looking for who can most accurately and fairly describe what their opponents' argument is. trying to hide it away from a kid who's looking for answers is just going to make it more intriguing. going over it in detail makes it clear what the problems are.
margaret thatcher, pat robertson, and rush limbaugh's deaths were enough to make me wish there was a hell for them to go to, but sadly, they just stopped existing, like everyone else
there are so many people they could have chosen, and yet they managed to pick almost the worst possible example. they could have even said george washington carver instead if they just really had to type the words "george washington" that bad.
man, i hate it when i autopilot my bike all the way home from work and then find i accidentally put dozens of boxes of top secret military documents in my backpack. mondays, am i right
Guy was my best friend in middle school. We reconnected after I graduated from college, played and beat L4D and L4D2 together. Then he started sending me political memes, and they were all fascist.
I tried to reason with him, but then he refused to engage with anything that was longer than like a page, or any video/audio source longer than about five minutes, but didn't seem to have any problem sending me stuff way longer than that.
I still wonder if there was more I could have done. But I just didn't need that in my life. I'm not some hero, I'm a downwardly-mobile working-class schlub who's pretty good at playing piano and riding a bike. I shouldn't be responsible for dragging this dipshit back from the depths of fascism just because he sat next to me in seventh grade history class, and honestly, with some of the things he claimed to believe, I probably didn't even want him on my side anymore.
very little if any of what i said was subjective, and everything i said that was controversial has decades of data behind it. i don't think you know what "subjective" means. maybe you would if you'd paid attention in public school

agreed. that's why i'm saying it's so important to use it when teaching kids about religion.

e: damn, who'd i piss off
I'd take that as inevitable period at this point.
Fucking of course they do, why should we expect the people paid to enforce the law to follow the law?
pretty sure several exmormons on the internet have either proposed or confirmed that this is something they're going for
i mean, having an extra pair of arms coming off your boobs could be useful
no, they're just swords
you're referring to the paradox of tolerance

Oh, I did. I argued with him for months, and he just kept getting more and more toxic and more and more spiteful.

That's what I tell myself, anyway.
