To follow up on this, you’re right. I checked into it. That picture is fake, generated or photoshopped or something, but he does all his own stunts and does not use stunt doubles, so I was mistaken and misled :)

Iirc, they’re his stunt doubles

It was a way to not deal with the issue directly, and to give members of the LGBTQ+ community an option to hide who they are and not receive punishment. But it in no way protected them. It was sold as a “compromise”, but was actually a thinly veiled way to continue to suppress the community and enact harsh penalties and convictions for anyone who didn’t follow the protocol.

lol at the 6 (at the time of writing this) trump supporters that downvoted you and are cool with trump pardoning convicted killers, his own sycophants that were convicted of federal crimes, and people that gave him bribes for his presidential pardons at the 11th hour; but not cool with pardoning people wrongfully convicted of a bigoted piece of propaganda turned law with “Don’t ask, Don’t Tell”.

Having been raised in a religious household and having escaped it later in life to become an engineer/science nerd, while being ostracized by my, incredibly, incredibly disappointing parents because they refuse to learn new things or acknowledge scientific studies that conflict with their religious views:

This answer is unequivocally, absolutely, a 100% correct take on humanity and their need for the “simplistic” and incorrect answers religion gives about the world around them.

Well. Now I’ve got another fear to add to the list.

So, they were attacking other religious sects and churches that were different than their specific version of Christianity?

That sounds like Christianity to me.

Just because it wasn’t the form of Christianity we recognize today, doesn’t mean it wasn’t a valid religious movement. Sure, it specifically helped the Nazi party, but all the pieces of the puzzle to create their christo-fascist state were there for them to put together.

And they used Christianity to do it. Saying otherwise is being disingenuous and revisionist. They espoused Christianity. They espoused the teachings of Jesus. They claimed moral superiority just like every other religion does.

Sure, they used it to attack other religions to set theirs up as the state religion, but that doesn’t make it less like Christianity. Just a form that doesn’t exist today.

Repressing other religions is a cornerstone of most religions, including Christianity. To say otherwise is invoking apologetics.

The Nazis were very much Christian. Claiming otherwise is distorting the facts.

She wasn’t successful in killing the child, so no, no pardon from Abbott. He only pardons actual convicted killers of hate crimes.

The double decker is still around, they call it something else, but you can still order it.

This is insanely bad advice haha

Right. So cost savings.

That’s pretty much exactly what he claimed.

It didn’t happen to him though, so clearly it never happened. He also doesn’t believe in shark attacks, or the holocaust.

I presume, like everything else wrong with Capitalism, it comes down to cost. It’s more cost efficient somehow. I don’t understand the details, because I’m not a chicken farmer, but I have been in the capitalism machine for a long, long time, and I’d bet a shitton of tax payer money that it’s purely down to cost.

If it saves $0.02 per chicken, they’ll gladly poison the rivers, oceans, lakes, etc. with refuse and baby chick corpses.

Hate to say it, but I agree here.

This is the price paid for not treating real guns with respect. Prop bullets or otherwise.

Yes, but he’s acting as a rallying flag to drive the alt-right together, normalizing their behavior and bringing it out into the open instead of dog whistling.

Without him, they have no lightning rod to travel towards as a coordinated group.

I wouldn’t count Russian Bots as people, but yeah, there’s a lot of noise here trying to make sure trump wins.

And the cycle repeats, again and again, until there’s nobody left
