InsertPotPun posted:I think that's just the part of trump that's aware of cameras. He seems to have this weird idea that unless it's a statement he's purposely putting out it doesn't "count" and you can't use it against him. So he's very careful not to put slurs "on the record". I'm sure he does in front of his "friends" though. That part is how we know his racism is, at least in part, strategic: he knows enough to create that thin veneer for his public to point to. yeah, like i am sure he says slurs and is probably more openly racist in private. yeah, this is probably miller or mulvany pushing this and trump going along with it because he has "backing". i am pretty sure this will go really poorly if it happens. also the stock market will take a big hit.

Yeah, it's worth noting that the Texas Department of Health has no record of a 13 week abortion done at the clinic she worked at on the day she claims it happened (nor does Planned Parenthood).

InsertPotPun posted:What's always fascinating to me is that they present themselves as the bad guy so so often. The entire script is written with them as the bad guys but the music says they're the good guys. I actually just read the AV Club review (an F for anyone curious) and one of the things mentioned is that the film does try to clumsily bridge the gap for people who might be on the fence and paints people who scream and harass women as "bad" but holds up the people who silently pray outside abortion clinics and fight to outlaw abortion as "good." Which they point out is already lovely and disingenuous because 40 Days for Life is involved and they are absolute fuckers who record license plates of women leaving women's clinics and mail them harassing letters and poo poo. (The amount of women getting harassed for going to get annual exams or pick up their birth control pills must be staggering, which is beside the point but darkly humorous to me as a former PP employee). Bizarro Watt posted:Yeah, it's worth noting that the Texas Department of Health has no record of a 13 week abortion done at the clinic she worked at on the day she claims it happened (nor does Planned Parenthood). Not to mention the fact that a 13 week abortion isn't even like, a super abortion or whatever, they just really want to muddy the waters with people thinking of nearly full term babies getting yanked out of women and butchered. Which tracks with all the infanticide talk that anti-choice folks are throwing around now in a desperate bid to stay relevant.

All of these dumbass graphs miss the loving point that young people are having less sex because they have no money and are horribly depressed because debt and expenses is the eternal Sword of Damocles over our heads, not even mentioning our generation's concerns for the climate It's not loving rocket science that people don't want to gently caress when they are under duress

Yeah I just meant that like, it's nitpicky for supporters of choice to point this out as though it would be okay if they were only targeting women having abortions or something. Like sometimes we'd have people say stuff to protestors like "we're not even doing abortions today rear end in a top hat!" and while I understand the sentiment, it's like, they don't really care and honestly neither should you. They are bad regardless.

One of the reasons it is hard to get animals to breed in captivity is because reproductive drive is the first thing you lose when you are stressed out. Thats why you have to make their cages super big and nice and as stress free as possible. Modern America is an incredibly stressful place to live because it is constantly beaten into your head that you aren't good enough and need to spend money to be better and also if you ever slip up even a little half the country is fanatical about letting you die alone in a ditch

TyroneGoldstein posted:I just want to put it out there that Trump's style of racism is very New York from the neighborhood style racism. It's a very distinctly from here (I'm from NYC) type of racism that grew up around these areas over the last 3 quarters of a century. He most definitely would be that dirtbag racist if he wasn't goaded by his base. He just wouldn't be as overt about it if they weren't but he'd definitely be as sync'd up with the concept. Trump is undoubtable racist, but I never thought it was a plan in his campaign. He's just an idiot and made up a dumb line about a wall and the crowd erupted so he just kept saying it and here we are. If the crowd had erupted over a line about how he'd give everyone free hot dogs he'd be trying to divert money from the military to make more hot dogs. It's not really really an important difference, but I just find it darkly funny that all this madness over the wall probably just came because he got a lot of applause at a speech.

Japan is also a vastly different situation because equal numbers of women and men have just opted out, where as we have a small but significant number of incels/ "men going their own way" because they can't deal with a woman who wants to make decisions and "talk back". Not saying all of those numbers are incel morons, but probably a decent minority It's kind of a fascinating thing to examine TulliusCicero fucked around with this message at 18:22 on Mar 29, 2019 |

Generally guarded by one male, the females—and few males—inside the space didn't breed or fight or do anything but eat and groom and sleep. When the population started declining the beautiful ones were spared from violence and death, but had completely lost touch with social behaviors, including having sex or caring for their young. quote:Now, interpretations of Calhoun’s work has changed. Inglis-Arkell explains that the habitats he created weren’t really overcrowded, but that isolation enabled aggressive mice to stake out territory and isolate the beautiful ones. She writes, "Instead of a population problem, one could argue that Universe 25 had a fair distribution problem." See? We're fighting and eating each other and not having babies because we're TOO happy, the world is TOO much of a utopia. You're welcome.
