Imagine being so scared of pronouns that you tear up a little kid’s English homework. Like, can you really be that dense? What’s next, Adjectives?!
Modern conservatism is mental illness - it’s not a case of being dense - it’s a case of being genuinely disabled.
Ironic for a political ideology grounded in and returning to eugenics.
This is how extremism works. If they get rid of knowledge they then control the knowledge and how it’s interpreted. Especially how people are educated.
Anti-intellectualism is a cancer growing in today’s societies
mom’s bf:
dads a moron-n. derog. subj.
Well I know what my mom would do. She’d kick that bf in the nuts for getting mad at her kid like that, lol.
I am not being hyperbolic.
Yeah, my mom would dropped that like it was hot. I was home schooled because we moved so much (poor, not military). When we got to the science module of the school books when I was ± 8 years old, she realized just how much fundamentalist bullshit was in them. She has spent basically everything on those books, and we never used them again. Went to the local library and got all the science books she could, and taught actual science to me. The books they had sent literally had drawings on humans wearing leopard skins foraging for berries while a dinosaur drank water in the background.
Lol what :-D I’d love to see that picture!! Hope you’re doing okay and what a lovely mother!
Kick him in the nuts before also kicking him to the curb for being unbelievably dumb?
A broadly educated population is incompatible with, and toxic to, conservative ideologies.
I would suggest it’s the conservative ideologies that are toxic, education is the antidote.
I’d posit both statements are true and fundamentally complimentary.
Well, toxins are inorganic so they’re not really killed by antidotes.
Now if the analogy were infections an antibiotics….
Conservatism is about favoring tradition and supporting the status quo. Going this wild about a common grammatical construct because it reminds you of people you hate for existing isn’t conservative, it’s something far worse.
Conservatism is about favoring tradition and supporting the status quo.
No, that’s a lie conservatives tell to make their ideology seem less abhorrent.
What conservatism is actually about is perpetuating hierarchy.
One could argue that so called “traditions” they are holding so much dearly in their heart never was fully a thing and is just the product of past idealizations and marketing propaganda. “The perfect suburban american trad family” from the 60s is a construct made by marketing people to sell fridges, diamond and beautiful car.
Idealizing a fake era of greatness which came before the weak, but also very powerful bad people took it away.
Now where have I heard that one before? 🤔
Conservatism is about favoring tradition and supporting the status quo.
That’s just what Conservatism claims to be about, but it has always been regressive
I think we agree that most self-identified conservatives aren’t actually very invested in the status quo or tradition, and are actually regressive reactionaries, but I think it’s a clearer point to say that most self-identified conservatives aren’t in fact conservative, than that conservatism isn’t actually what people (claim they) mean when they say conservative. At that point, conservatism loses its meaning.
At that point, conservatism loses its meaning.
Conservatism hasn’t lost its meaning, conservatism just never meant what conservatives claimed it meant; it’s always been a façade.
Conservatism is about conserving (and reinforcing) power structures; all talk about ‘tradition’ and ‘stability’/‘status-quo’ is wool over your eyes.
In liberal democracy, the status quo is liberalism. Conservatism was to conserve the monarchy and aristocracy.
There is a difference between historical conservatism and what it has become. Even setting that aside, there is much daylight between what a movement will profess and what it will ultimately produce.
No, there really isn’t. True conservatism is an unbroken line from royalists, to confederates, to nazis, to Trump.
It’s the allegedly small government, pro-freedom “conservatives” – i.e. self-deluded liberals who mislabeled themselves – who were the aberration.
That’s also your brain on being a stupid little dipshit who didn’t pay attention during elementary school grammar.
George does not like pronouns. George tries to keep George’s temper under George’s control when the (plural) people George interacts with use pronouns.
The plural form is clearly peopleses.
Peops?
Popeses
Those are the guys wearing hats that look like ppses
Sounds like a call to CPS is needed. Maybe a game of ‘shot to the chin’ every time he uses one.
Rock um sock um reactionaries.
On one hand, this is obviously fake
On the other hand, there’s 7 billion people on the planet and the odds that one of them would do this is very high
The year was 1991.
My roommate decides to eat hot dogs.
We keep breads in the freezer so they last. Toaster is broken.
I tell this to my roommate before I go to the toilet.
I come out and I see a pot of boiling water with hot dogs and hot dog buns in it.
My roommate decided to boil bread to warm it up.People can be far stupider than you could possibly ever imagine.
George Carlin once said “Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”
I’ve been thinking about that a lot lately.
I had a friend that liked to put butter and honey on his bread before he put it in a two slice toaster. He did this every morning for years.
Each time the toaster broke or caught fire, he would put it out and get a new toaster and repeat the process. He may still be doing it to this day.
Should’ve just bought him a toaster oven
I told him to buy one. He didn’t like them. Kept using his toaster.
He was not stupid, but he was an idiot.
Did he eat the bread sog sacks?
He just dipped the hot dogs in ketchup and at them while I pissed myself laughing.
Bao hot dogs where?
I’m less offended at the boiled bread than I am at the boiled hotdogs.
you might as well just eat them cold, they’re precooked. You heat them on a pan (or grill) to add FLAVOR. boiling generally removes flavor. Browning the skin in some way (Grill, pan, those rollers at gas stations,) is that flavor.
The only exception to boiling removing flavor is hot dog carts and stands and such like, where the water hasn’t been changed… ever… Yes. it tastes amazing. no. You don’t want to know why that is.
Yeah this looks fake because it’s a dramatization of reality. I’ve seen young dudes IRL argue whether it’s “gay” to wash the balls, and the unmentionables behind that. Literally just soap and water bathing. We’re talking people so uneducated they don’t know the word “gooch” or “taint”, or anything similar. There’s always at least one older dude who leaves to shower like a normal person, but he’ll be back later to buy some weed.
Tangent, but can you imagine buying weed from someone who doesn’t wash their ass? That’s part of the history of the war on drugs. Unwashed perineums, in your lungs.
*8 billion since 2022
Holy shit, wait, what if we convince them that gender is a liberal hoax?
It doesn’t work that way. These “people’s” worldview is “heads I win, tails you lose.” They will be selectively hyper-credulous to whatever bullshit they want to believe, while turning into hyper-skeptics about anything they don’t want to believe.
You will never, ever win against them with a logical argument, not even reverse psychology, because the only rules they play by are the ones they make up second-by-second to make them victorious against you.
No, we convince them that having sex is woke.
Your flaw in logic and reasoning is applying logic and reasoning.
Dude doesn’t even remember elementary school English lessons.
Someone needs a Schoolhouse Rock, preferably dropped on their head from a great height.
“Conjunctions are a liberal hoax by the Democrats.” --J.D. Vance (Probably)
Not to deflect from the stupid lies of Trump and Vance, don’t vote for them, but they learned from a master:
“It depends on what the meaning of the word ‘is’ is. If the—if he—if ‘is’ means is and never has been, that is not—that is one thing. If it means there is none, that was a completely true statement. … Now, if someone had asked me on that day, are you having any kind of sexual relations with Ms. Lewinsky, that is, asked me a question in the present tense, I would have said no. And it would have been completely true.”
