For instance, most men may hate their appearance because they are fat

Well, I have to object to that. I’m somewhere in vicinity of being “fat” or I have a “dad bod” at least. (6′2″ and about 275 lbs) Yeah, I’d definitely look better if I were in better shape, but I still think I’m a good looking guy, and I’ve even been told so by people not related to me, LOL.

Norman Finkelstein #transphobia

A recent cover of the hyper-woke New Yorker magazine featured a transgender person.

Uhhh…and…so what? As I understand it, the New Yorker is known for being pretty left-wing. (or “hyper-woke”) I just utterly fail to see why any conservative should give a damn. You’re not their intended audience, obviously. Are trans people just not allowed to be on magazine covers in your world?k

Susana Garrido #homophobia

plus the logic that men are simply not attractive

Well, that’s just sheer bullshit. I’m a man who is definitely more attracted to women, but I can still look at a man and think “damn, that’s a good looking dude right there” or something to that effect.

a Christian nationalism that prevents repeating the historical errors leading to World Wars I and II.

Wait a damn minute here. Is he actually saying that the USA’s “historical errors” (which I presume consist of not being Christian nationalist enough) are what led to WWI and WWII? I’m no master historian, but I know it was stuff going on in Central Europe that kicked both of the World Wars off.

Ousmane Sonko #homophobia #conspiracy

With the way he was talking about homosexuality being “imposed”, I’m kinda wondering if he secretly wants to be “imposed upon” himself. Hey, if you’re into that kinda thing, go with it, I say.

All humans except for the intelligent/talented ones should be put in cages

OK, then the obvious question would be, who decides if people are “intelligent/talented” or not, and by what criteria? The only one they mentioned was IQ tests, but I think the only thing those really measure is how someone does on IQ tests.

If a human baby has birth defects then eradicate it from existence.

Aaaaaand that’s where they went from “asshole elitist” to “literally evil”. (and that’s not a word I use seriously very often) I have a cousin who was born with a cleft lip. He had a lot of surgeries to correct it, he’s like 49 or 50 years old or so and you wouldn’t know it now. I don’t really know what his IQ score would be but he’s definitely talented. It always annoyed me that he started playing guitar a few years after I did, but quickly got WAY better than me, LOL

OK, if you don’t want to be “pushed drugs”…then you should basically never see a doctor again, or I guess never take any medication again as well. See how well that works out for you.

Also, it annoys me to what is probably an unreasonable level that this guy has the same name as THIS Mike Stone, an absolute legend of Detroit sports talk radio.

As a result of this last paragraph, the Community of Madrid urged the Prosecutor's Office to investigate the facts to determine if anti-Semitic expressions were used during the speech.

Well, she literally said “the enemy is the jew” and “the jew is to blame.” I don’t know why they would even need an investigation to determine if her comments were antisemitic! And the excuse that she offered, basically being “I didn’t mean ALL Jews”…that’s 100 percent the same kinda thing I’ve heard a million times from white racists in regards to black people. They’d say they don’t hate black people, they just hate black people who act like black people. (they maybe didn’t put the last part in those exact words, but that’s what they meant!)

Edward Hudgins #elitist

He never really said what “going Galt” actually IS. As a guy who used to be quite the Ayn Rand fan, and who read Atlas Shrugged multiple times, I know “going Galt” means you’re basically going “on strike” from society in general, and then society will eventually beg you to come back when they realize they can’t function without the likes of you. In the book, John Galt was a guy who was a engineer for a car company who designed a new motor powered by ambient static electricity which would more or less revolutionize, like…everything, apparently. But then he quit when the company he worked for went all communist on everybody. So I just have to wonder, when anybody talks about “going Galt”….why do you think anyone would give a shit, if you’re not the equivalent of John Galt or Fransisco D’Anconia or any of the other “strikers”?

One of the top five worst things that have happened in the past century is women posting personal drama online.

Even if you’re just talking about the current century, as in 2001 to now, I don’t know how the fuck “women posting personal drama online” would conceivably be on that list. Cus, ya know…that’s a thing that you can easily just ignore!

This is kinda random maybe, but what the hell…

As I’ve stated here before, or you all can guess by now, I’m a longtime pro wrestling fan…my personal favorite “jobber” of all time (a “jobber” being a wrestler who is booked to lose often) is Barry Horowitz. Ya might guess by that name, yeah, he’s Jewish. When he had his one run in the WWF in 1995 or so, when he actually won a few matches, his entrance music was “Hava Nagila” I kid you not, lol. He was mostly a jobber, for sure, but I think he was one of the better in-ring workers in the WWF in his time.

For generations, the question “Are we alone?” has been whispered in hushed tones

Bullshit! For more generations than I guess you might be thinking of, scientists have speculated about that question. Never heard of the “Drake equation”? And I think that ever since people realized that some of those lights they saw in the sky were other planets orbiting around the same sun as us here on Earth, they’ve speculated about aliens who might live there. And wrote books about it, of course. Not to mention things like Star Trek, which is all about humans and aliens and all that.

Why is Earth so significant?

It’s not. Probably. Unless it turns out that Earth is more rare as a planet with intelligent life than we’re guessing it is.

David J. Stewart #fundie

“But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?”

James 2:20, which I’m quoting from the Skeptic’s Annotated Bible website, which does use the KJV. Personally, I kinda like the KJV , if only because I like the “Early Modern English.” (aka, the English of Shakespeare). Ya know…saying “thou shalt not” instead of “you will not” or whatever just gives it that much more gravitas, right?

Rob Pue #fundie #wingnut

as they watch their children head full-speed down the highway to hell.

“Hell, Michigan” is a little over an hour’s drive from where I am. Indeed, nobody should be going “full-speed down the highway” to there, or to anywhere else, really! Obey posted speed limits, and all that. And it’s not even really a highway to there, it’s kinda off the freeway a little bit, lol. I’ve never been there myself, but I want to go at least once….then I could say that I’ve been to Hell and back.

There are troubled marriages, people struggling with being unequally yoked with an unbelieving spouse

If you’re religious and having an “unbelieving spouse” is that much of a struggle, why did you get married in the first place? Or if the situation is that you were both believers and the spouse lost their belief, maybe get a divorce if it’s that big of a problem. I can understand that, I mean, I’m an atheist, and let’s say I got married to someone who was also an atheist, but then eventually they decide they’re a “born-again Christian” or something. I’d think it’d be only fair to both of us to get divorced if we’re that uncompatible.

TPCC159 #sexist

I can’t take you seriously as a human being if you let someone you’re not married to impregnate you

My first question would be… who does this guy think he is that any woman who’s had a child outside of marriage should give a damn if he takes them seriously or not? Also, what if she conceives and then they get married before the child is born? Not really an uncommon situation at all. I mean, just by doing the math, I can tell that was definitely the case with my own parents (who’ve now been married for 52 years and some change, btw!) and my older brother.

Fight back against WHAT??? They’re fucking billionaires! Not exactly what I’d call people who are disadvantaged or anything like that, ya know?

And they make great salaries. $50,000 to be a driver

I don’t know if that’s good pay or not as far as delivery drivers go, but anyway, I wouldn’t call $50,000 a year a “great salary” in this economy.

I ain’t gonna lie, that sounds like a mashup of the protagonists in the last few book series I’ve been reading lately, LOL. Tho, in the last one, the guy with the magnificent facial hair was the super-jacked elven police chief who the superhero protagonist often works with.

For 25 years, Ramirez served as the third-highest-ranked devil worshipper in New York City.

I’m pretty sure that’s not a thing that actually exists. The Church of Satan and the Satanic Temple aren’t like the Catholic Church or something, they don’t have dioceses with archbishops and whatnot. (though, “Archbishop of Satan” sounds truly badass, lol)

Dr. Xiang Jun #quack

In TCM, Blood remains a red liquid full of nutrients that flows through blood vessels

That much is true, because no matter whether you’re talking “traditional Chinese medicine” or modern medicine or whatever else, that’s just what blood IS. Really, the term “traditional medicine” doesn’t make sense to me. If some “traditional” medicine or medical knowledge is actually correct, then it’s just medicine. If it doesn’t, then it’s bullshit.

Holocaustianity is a weapon. It exists to prevent White Christian nations from acting in their own interests.

"White Christian nations”??? Uh…is that a thing that exists today? The USA certainly isn’t one, despite what I guess this guy might think. Maybe you could call the Vatican City that, as it’s definitely a Christian nation, at least, and I’m guessing most of its 800 or so citizens are white people.

As a guy who reads “harem-lit” books, I gotta say, that kinda sounds like someone listing recommendations for series that I’ve haven’t read yet.

Hmm… “My Superpower is Loving Girls”, while a kinda cheesy title, sounds like it could be interesting, like it’s a guy (who doesn’t have superpowers) who somehow ends up being with multiple female superheroes….and now that I think about it, I’ve read a series where that happened LOL

Mike Stone #racist #fundie #wingnut #conspiracy

Should men, and specifically white men, date women of other races?
The Bible has a very clear answer to that question: No.

As a white man and an atheist, I give exactly ZERO fucks about who the Bible (or Mike Stone for that matter) says I should date or not date. I don’t know if it makes any sense to say I’d give “negative fucks” about something, but if it does, that would apply here.

To add: I just now googled “what does the Bible say about interracial marriage” or something to that effect, and one of the first results was from “Got Questions” and the first sentence at least is something I can totally agree with!

Interracial marriage is really a misnomer. There is only one race — the human race.

YES, amen to that!

David J Stewart #fundie #homophobia #sexist

I know a professed Christian woman who works as a public school teacher. She divorced her husband years earlier and now lives alone. Her best friend at work is a male homosexual, who is also a fellow teacher. They eat together, go places together and get along like brother and sister. Something is VERY wrong with this situation.

OK, even if you’re a Christian who is convinced that homosexuality is a sin, what’s wrong with being friends with a homosexual person?? By the description given, it sounds like they have a great friendship. I’d guess they bonded over common interests that had nothing to do with their religion or sexual orientation. Hell, I’ve been there myself. I worked at Taco Bell for a long time, many years ago (but not in a galaxy far far away, lol) and my best “work friend” was a Christian woman who I knew didn’t approve of homosexuality and etc, but still, she was like the nicest person you’d wanna meet, and we liked the same kind of music, so there was always that too.

Considering that some areas in Mexico are in the mountains and pretty high in altitude, I’m guessing that while snow wouldn’t be a common thing there, it wouldn’t be exactly unheard of either, depending on where you are.

He basically said he doesn’t believe in climate change…because the climate changed! I wonder if he meant to say “global warming” instead, because I’ve heard that old joke a million times: “how can there be global warming, when it’s -10 degrees Farenheit now” or something like that.

I'm a protected class.

Even aside from the fact that I don’t see how the fuck this person thinks they deserve that…I actually seriously hate that term. It makes it sound like some groups of people are not allowed to be discriminated against, and some others are just fine to discriminate against. What “protected class” really means is “protected characteristics.” If you’re not allowed to discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation, for example, that doesn’t mean that people of any particular orientation get any less protection under the law than any other.

My favorite video on “debunking moon landing denial” was the one I saw years ago, it was from some guy that had worked in video editing or something like that for years and years, and his main point was that we didn’t have the technology in 1969 to fake a video and have it look like that. They literally sent TV signals back to Earth. This was like 2 years before we even had such a thing as “video cassettes” after all.
