I’ve never noticed the “Gen Z stare”, maybe I’m just not a shitty customer.

This feels like just another example of “the younger generation has no respect, in my day we respected our elders” that’s been a part of society since we’ve had society.

Chicago is about 3 times the size of the Twin Cities and is generally more well known and payed attention to. The Twin Cities mostly get ignored by the rest of the country, unless something like the murder of George Floyd happens, so that doesn’t move the needle against Minnesota. The only people who really hate them are people in rural Minnesota, but most of them have a lot of state pride so still have a favorable view of Minnesota.

Pros and cons from who’s perspective?

Does Lemmy have an equivalent community for r/yourjokebutworse?

It would be nice if we could all stand for our morals, consequences be damned, but the vast majority won’t and I don’t consider people to be bad because of a choice between two shitty options.

I will certainly judge someone who chooses the option that means murdering starving children.

I really wonder what you would actually choose to do in such a situation. It’s easy to armchair. Not as easy when you actually have to make the choice.

I’d be following the lead of the others resisting compulsory service. It’s not as difficult as you make it out to be, when you actually have principles.

I know right? Why would you choose to have that blood on your hands?

You’re at least partially correct. Ceremonial Burning is the proper way to dispose of the US flag source. They do specify it should be done in a respectful manner, but a disrespectful burning is protected political speech (until now, I guess).

No tobacco and no alcohol here. I used to binge drink in college but after a night of drinking ended up with a $6000 ER/ambulance bill (yes I am American how did you know?), I decided it was time to stop altogether because I can’t control my intake when I drink.

She had a choice though, some Israelis choose prison instead of participating in occupation and genocide. Had she done that she’d be worthy of respect. She chose to serve.

Don’t worry there’s no way to remove enough queerness from Owl House to satisfy Chinese censors, so there’s no chance of Disney adapting it for live action.

She’d be dull in that as well. Mud wrestling requires passion, something Gal Gadot is incapable of displaying.

It is not an accusation if it is based on facts.

This statement is simply false.

Accusations can be backed up by facts. They’re still accusations. Facts can make accusations more convincing, but they don’t stop being accusations when facts are provided.

Even if she wasn’t a genocide supporter/participant, she’d still be an unwatchably shitty actor.

Healthier to do that than to try being friends with a chatbot like a lot of lonely folks do

Sounds like he was taught about stranger danger. Good parenting.

Slap a 1-inch grid on that and it’d make a great battlemap for D&D

We don’t have enough racist shitbags? We need to import more?

Praxis

Yeah she seems like she’d consent to him going downtown, which is entirely different from the first panel due to the consent. Consent is key.
