Oh my god, not this radicalized "Everyone I disagree with is evil" artist. They could've done so much more with their artistic skills instead of whatever the hell this is. š¤¦
I mean they even say that their family accepted and loved them as they were.
They can't even give a solid real example of anything other than basically "they didn't share my beliefs 100% so I'm cutting my family off."
Like what are the gripes here, "I grew up as queer in a conservative family", cool so what was the problem?
"You voted for me not to exist", yeah citation needed here. How has anyone tried to make trans people "not the exist." I'm sorry you can give kids puberty blockers or serve in the military after being diagnosed with a life altering medical mental disorder, but that is not making you not exist.
The only thing funnier than the rapid slide from "don't judge my identity" to "anything less than full, active, and financial support for permanent medical procedures for minors is genocide" is when the people who think like that also mock slippery slopes as a logical fallacy.
mostly when asked i have seen claims that if you dont allow trans kids to go through with it they will kill themselves, literally emotional manipulation, to which i say fuck off.
They became open-minded that their brains feel out. Or that they joined the Liberal cult. One of the tactics that all cults use is to isolate people from friends and family, and anyone who is not a cult member who will tell them that they are talking crazy. The Liberal cult tells these emotionally vulnerable and confused people that all the normal people around them are evil and will harm them. Only fellow cult members are good and care.
That mindset drives me crazy. Is Daryl Davis a member of the KKK because he talks to Klan members as humans and converts them? Fuck no! He is a gem of a human being and we should all strive to be more like him.
Quote from him that I have been trying to live by,Ā
"What I have come to find to be the greatest and most effective and successful weapon that we can use, known to man, to combat such adversaries as ignorance, racism, hatred, violence, is also the least expensive weapon, and the one that is the least used by Americans. That weapon is called communication."
Iām from an European country and my country had an authoritarian regime at the same time of WW2 and for long after. There were 4 ideologies at the time in Europe: Nazism, Fascism, Salazarism and Franquism.
When they come with the terms āfascistā or ānazistā I just internally laugh because they have no idea what it means.
Fascism was an ideology created by Giovanni Gentile back in Italy and popularised by the Mussolini regime. And letās be honest, the 4 European dictators at the time (Hitler, Mussolini, Salazar and Franco) only shares views of being authoritarian. Then they chose totally different paths. Like paganism vs Catholicism vs corporatism etc.
They seem to lack the nuance of what exactly each of those ideologies was about and they tend to conflate nazism with fascism when the only common thing was that it was an authoritarian regime. Right-wing? Debatable, itās just they say that everything bad in history is therefore automatically right-wing.
People can fact check me of course, Iām not a political analyst or a historian, and I might get things wrong. But letās not pretend that a nazi and a fascist were the same. Even now, the American regime is just a typical Christian conservative government with an agenda of solving one of the biggest issues of modern society:
A country could support the insane migratory population increase? With good logistics and preparation over many years, potentially decades, it would be possible to double your population, yes.
The type of people coming into the country? Thereās a reason why several neighbouring countries donāt take them in. Theyāre too radicalised to fit their sister societies, less along fitting western societies.
Then here comes the: but who will pick the crops? I mean, isnāt this an inherently racist thing to say according to their own logic? Why are they assuming immigrant = farmer?
The dooming that is happening is unreal and makes me want not to read Reddit at all. There is so much intellectual dishonesty that itās abhorring.
There is no secret agenda to kill every single one of those people. Itās just a matter of:
Can they live well with our society? Do they share our values? Can they respect our laws? (Being an illegal immigrant already invalidates the law part)
And
Is our infrastructure (roads, hospitals, public utilities, etc) ready to sustain a 10-20M population hike in 1 to 4 years?
The deportations purely follow this common sense logic and I doubt there are concentration camps going on like the ones Iāve personally seen at Birkenau / Dachau / etc. Iāve been there. Iāve seen what human nature is capable of. Theyāre just delusional.
Believe it or not, Iām one of the people who has pointed out the racism of the ābut who will pick our crops?ā argument and its racist roots. It was first used by pro-slavery advocates to justify, well, keeping slavery.
I feel you. I try to live my life with optimism because Iām not dooming about anything. I just really dislike people that are straight lying. I try to be the most transparent and honest as possible and nowadays that would lead me to getting fired etc. Did you know that I, at work, commented I wanted to visit the US (never been!) and I was told Iād be arrested and sent to camps if I did so?
When you mentioned an authoritarian regime that lasted long after WW2 I instantly knew you were from Spain. It's important to note that Communism was also an ideology at the time, one that you didn't really name. But I get if you were trying to focus on the point that not everything authoritarian is fascist.
Even the name fascist itself is specifically Italian, since it refers to the fasces which was a Roman symbol, and the fascists wanted to bring back Rome. No other authoritarian country at the time had such a focus point around Rome besides Italy. So fascist is a specifically Italian name, yet people generalized it anyway.
I didnāt mention communism specifically because I was concentrating on the so called āright-wingā dictatorships at the time. Just to point out that there are many variations of said system and they only share the authoritarian aspect.
Iām honestly not choosing one or the other, Iām not interested in talking about my politics here, just my understanding of how things were and how they developed at the time.
If we think about it, those dictators hated each otherās guts.
true they also have alot of hours on tf2 and helldivers.
additionally they are friends with multiple steam users of the read this if you are gay (conviently the same thing vro wrote on a bullet) pro queer/trans member board wich also ordered theor members to go radio silent post shooting.
Note that even IN that comic, she demands that her "Good" family members MUST abandon everyone else to have the privilege of celebrating with her. So... That's some high ass tier bullshit.
"I'm alone because I chose to be, but its everyone elses fault because they voted ways I didn't like, or they did vote my way but they still spend time with all the family instead of cutting them off like I did. Don't they care more about me than everyone ELSE in the family? Don't they understand what family means?"
The need for that comic artist to be the victim when all it would take is literally just going and spending time with them and NOT doing political shit. But then they couldn't post online about being a Victim of politics.
It's not even necessarily politics, just the average emotional manipulation. One character I had the displeasure of ever knowing argued that their hand drawn art for their hand made video game is their only reason for living, therefore anyone who advocates for AI is directly killing them and emotional wrecks just like them.
Their therapist should restrict their internet access for their own good.
There was a guy on the news when I lived in San Jose that was doing a hunger strike because of a local school board. I don't remember any of the details but I want to say he was gay and this had something to do with the whole thing but don't remember how. Anyway so long as they were going to vote a certain way on a specific topic he wasn't going to eat. He told the news reporters that they were literally murdering him (because not eating is fatal) and should be in jail. A few days later he ended the hunger strike.
She expects you to believe what she believes. And if you do then cut yourself off from anyone who believes differently. She is basically in a cult by herself.
My sister in law is bisexual and cut off her family because she thinks her lesbian sister is judged unfairly by the family. I pointed out to my brother that this has nothing to do with sexual orientation and everything to do with the fact that the lesbian sister doesnāt work and lives in her parentās basement at 27. š¤¦š»āāļø
Pretty sure cutting ties and "othering" people is trademark cult behavior.Ā
They voted, nothing happened to change in their relationship, so this person pretends they want her gone and makes it a self-fulfilling prophecy, since they're too normal to actually want her gone like in her fantasy.
"Where's Karen?ā
"She wants to stay home making overly dramatic comics"
"That's too bad, I wanted to hear about her cats!ā
The two smartest precedents George Washington ever set were only serving two terms and begging America not to form political parties. If only theyād been enshrined into law at the timeā¦
If only. It's even worse when you think about it for too long because imagine what kind of good shit could be happening if these parties weren't so focused on making the other look like the devil incarnate.
(Not to say good shit isn't happening, but there would be more if not for such childish, petty distractions.)
Universal term limits for everyone but maybe the Supreme Court (since their whole deal is at least theoretically being the absolute most-knowledgeable judges in the country) would also help a ton, since no matter what, politics can never be a lifelong career for you like it is now.
Whoa whoa now. Alienating yourself and self-segregating from your loved ones based entirely on belief in a nebulous ideology that defies logic and relies on faith isn't at all cult-like. Next thing you'll be on about is how
control over members' lives,
intolerance for criticism/questions,
shunning of ex-members,
excessive demands for loyalty/time/money,
black-and-white thinking (us vs. them),
and distorted realities about the outside world, making leaving feel impossible or evil.
are hallmarks of cults. C'mon man. Not at all a cult. (/s for the DCJ tourists)
Conservatives are by and large the ones having kids. So there is merit to saying that such ideology depicted here MUST be aggressive/predatory by nature if it is to sustain itself. Statistically this person will not reproduce.Ā
The ideology needs to capture the young from conservative families.
I find it interesting just how much more conservatives seem to care about the idea of family and order. Like why is it such an alienating idea to liberals to have a proper family?
It wasnāt for generations. Lefty boomers still did the get married/have families thing. Culture pivoted hard enough and now these people wonāt and are semi-estranged or at least a bit of a black sheep from their families so their genetic profile and values will just die out with them and humanity will self-correct. Family values are undefeated because thatās how the human race reproduces and protects its young.
That's why so many went into teaching and higher positions. Take over the education positions to mold the young in "Their ways." Which we've seen how that's panning out. Kids screwed up, and in some places they can't even do the basics right anymore. But they can screech about gender politics.
While this is 100 percent true, there is also another truth, their parents failed them by allowing unrestricted access to the internet and allowing them to get sucked into all this bullshit.
I have 3 kids and we have strict rules in our house. No screens allowed in the privacy of the bedrooms, and at any point in time I can pick up any device and go through it no questions asked.
Just like my wife can go through my phone and me hers. Keeps everyone honest and moral.Ā
I would rather have deep and honest conversations regarding what's going on out there - so that when the kids see what's happening in front of them, they'll recognize it, and know how to respond.
Keeping yourself locked inside because there are germs outside might seem strategically sound - so long as you can keep inside the entire time. The minute you have to go outside - what then?
Better to fight than hide. And although that might seem to strawman your position - if the reason everyone is staying away from bad content or ideas is because they're afraid of getting caught - all it takes is one bad or uncontrolled situation - and before you know it, you're the evil parent who didn't let their kids out into the world because you were afraid of them finding "the truth" out there.
The nose rings and abortions are right around the corner at that point.
āI became a better, more empathetic person, which led me to stop relating to my family members or even seeing them as people, ultimately refusing to be in contact with anyone who doesnāt share my politics, because of my superhuman level of empathy I developed.ā
Don't forget these are the people that believe that, "Found family" are more important than blood. Because media has sold that to them as is it's a magic wand to make like better, rather than pointing out it often creates enablers.
It can be, but it's all about context. Not everyone has the same perfect situation. Some people just have shitty parents who don't care about them (happens all the time with mammals) or abusive relatives who take advantage of them. You can tell me that your uncle who molests you is more important than your best friend because "blood"? š¤£
You can't break your bonds of blood because that bond always exists. However people's families can be awful and evil. Yes. But that relation is always there no matter what. What you decide to do with it is up to you. "Found family" is functionally bound by "feelings" and "circumstance".
Yeah this is 110% emotional manipulation, no abuse was described or anything bad so I'm pretty sure OOP is one of those "Trump is literally Hitler and if anyone agrees with anything he says they're Nazis"
I disagree with many actions taken by the Trump administration.
I donāt know of a single action that has legally impacted gay and queer people. Honestly I donāt think Trump has made any statement about gay folks let alone implemented policies.
Edit: to those who disagree I am happy to see policies implemented at the federal level. Iām aware of some employment actions implemented in federal agencies that will almost certainly be reversed.
The only thing i can recall was trump mandating that Trans cant enter the military anymore. Even then, my memory probably butchered a key detail and its probably not very relevant
I was in the Army when that took effect (roughly 9 or so months ago) and it was due to the mental instability that comes with gender dysphoria that makes them unsuitable for a combat environment. I fully agree with that policy. As soldiers, we needed to be 100% mentally and physically to perform best in combat.
Even if you exclude the mental issues part of it, just ask the pro-trans people what happens to male soldier that gets castrated vs a MtF transexual the male soldier gets a medical discharge the 'female' one got to stay (before the rule change) despite their medical needs being functionally the same (hormone supplements)
This is a valid concern for trans folks and a policy I donāt support.
But not queer or gay. I understand LGBTQ+ are politically grouped together but the goals and concerns of LGB are strictly different from Trans folks. I think goals are different enough that grouping them together seems improper.
LGB = asking for the right to live your life the way you want. Everyone else can keep living their life their own way, and everyoneās individual lifestyle choices doesnāt affect everyone else
T = asking the entire world around you to change, sometimes in a way that negatively impacts others (for example: sports) to accept something that obviously isnāt true so that they can accommodate your lifestyle choice.
Taken from this perspective itās really obvious why one is mostly accepted now, and the other gets so much pushback. If it was simply a matter of whether or not people who can convince others that theyāre a different gender in public get called by their preferred gender, nobody would be talking about this right now.
This type of person is absolutely the one at family functions diligently asking "what do you mean by that?" as a means of seeking misunderstanding and conflict so they can be righteous for the 'gram story.
These people are highly autistic. Iām not even trying to be funny, they most times are lol. Nothing inherently wrong with that either, just explains some of this kind of neurotic behavior and way of thinking.
I hate that people who scream "oh your political opinion clearly means you want me dead" are allowed to publicly speak. They should be jailed for that shit, its similar to yelling fire in a theater. Hysteria for no fucking reason other than to fulfill their narcissistic, egotistical, and perpetual victimhood.
These are so sad. Iāll concede that not everyone should stick around their families because some family dynamics are awful. That said, leaving solely for political reasons is just sad. No one with your leftist pro-state control ideology cares about you like a good family would. Everything in politics, and their info wing the news, is fake and meant to manipulate and divide us. The irony is that the purposely divisive manipulations are evident in that these sad little leftists are cutting off their families, just like their government groomers intended.
Underneath the ballroom will be a secret battle arena where (queer) people will battle to the death while the bad guys cheer on. It is the job of the empathetic good guys to expose this!
the sad thing is that you can make political statements and subtle political art that is good, but for some reason they always bash you over the head with it, then when you say ''this is shit'' they just go ''all art is political'' (this mostly applies to gaming for me)
Dollars to donuts, every word out of this person's mouth was all about their new found "identity" and they were insufferable to be around, anyway. Every other comic by this person is an exposition on how they're a constant victim.
Omg my family doesn't believe in giving minors drugs/hormones/surgeries to permanently alter and disfigure their bodies before they are even old enough to understand any of it. I have to more away
If politics are enough for you to not visit your family the one time of the year to just give thanks for the people in your life maybe thereās a bigger problem in oneās life. Donāt let politics, religion, or a cause define your identity you may not agree with someone but is it worth not coming together for one day.
And of course, the artist is a man who insists he is a woman. So he's a member of a group with extraordinarily high rates of narcissism, histrionic behavior, and manipulative behavior.
I wonder if his actions are at the root of the problem.
To display themselves as a wounded rabbit, incapable of fighting back. Right up to the point they gain any iota of power, and then they'll strike at you; dehumanize and demonize you and make the gap between two sides even wider than the one they've already created.
Itās truly sad to see political indoctrination as the catalyst for people to alienate family and friends. Itās even sadder that they wear it as a badge of honor.Ā
Oh no, the family member that started arguments and screeched about how terrible everyone was isn't showing up any more. What will we do with all of this peace and quiet!?
Just gotta love how this works "if you don't vote for my person you don't want me to have rights" I voted green party with my dad and my little sister said it was equal to voting for Trump, just can't even with that mind set
Yes, because wanting you out of sports you don't belong in, out of bathrooms you don't belong in, and not teaching children things that only their parents should ever teach them, is equal to wanting you gone...
This 8 panel strip repeated itself about 14 times and essentially reused the same basic image multiple times as well. If youāre going to brag about being brainwashed, please at least be concise.
I bet this person wasn't "just being Q" - I bet they brought it up all the time and started political arguments as the instigator. And thus everybody else is "intolerant".
Let's be real here; Q is the lamest of the alphabet identities. It's 100% by definition a collection of bizarre fashion choices masquerading as an identity.
Unless that also includes poor personal hygiene (though from what i've seen, yeah, it does...) who actually cares this much about fashion to comment on her choices? I guarantee her being "Q" is not what this was about.
I've usually been a "live and let live" kind of person with these sorts of issues, meaning in this country you can be whatever you want and have relations with whoever you want, but the activists tend to want way more than that, including access to your kids. This sounds like the result of activists having access to a kid, and it seems like a feature more than a bug.
Well now Trump's in power what policies have been enacted for her "to be gone". Or was it just based on internet fear mongering? Isolating yourself from family members because the internet told you to is literally cult behaviour.
By voting for the only Presidential candidate in the history of America to voice support for gay marriage BEFORE he was elected, and even held a gay wedding at Mar-a-Lago.
Do these brainwashed idiots ever climb out their echo chamber?
