Never saw a "Christian" group that said "Women are Property" ?? Can anyone make out that website on the banner? (Have seen a bunch that spout hate towards LGBTQ)
"Ignite your passion for truth with The Official Street Preachers; broadcasts and reports that cover global and local events from a Christian perspective" reads the website
Love how the official from the school said "we don't tolerate this type of hate"... that's not just hate. Call it for what it is. It's misogynistic, racist, and homophobic. Call it out directly for what it is. It's so much more than hate. And it needs to stop.
Women should punch them in the face, and then in court say, "so am I property or a human? Because he can't press charges if he truly believes I'm property."
Its good to remind religious people that they've signed up to have those restrictions on themselves. And while they are entitled to their own opinion it doesn't make a damn bit of difference to anyone else.
Youre dumb. Im an alum and there are "protestors" like this once a week on campus or more. Some of them are way worse than this. Its not as spread out of a campus as UT or texas a and m so everyone is forced to walk past where these guys to go to most classes. You cant avoid them so these lunatics love our campus
You call me dumb for asking for sauce. Perfectly okay. I point out that you write worse than a 5th grader and I'm cringe. Gotcha. The only thing cringe around here is the idea that you are somehow involved in educating young minds. Ta-ta!
You want petty? Orthodox Jews believe that not only is there a correct day on which to trim your fingernails (Friday), but a *correct order in which to clip them*. And yes, the fingers are out of sequence. So, the all-seeing, omnipotent Creator of the Universe, who transcends both space and time, will get *offended* if I trim my right-hand fingernails before my left.
Im a texas state alumni. These guys are baby shit compared to some of the crackpots and lunatics we get on campus. When i was there we had who i called the fetus gore crew who would show up once a month or so with posters of aborted fetuses and pick fights with students. We also had who i called the fashion police preacher who would yell at women wearing revealing clothes and tell them they deserved to be raped.
We also had a scientology guy from Austin who would try to come and recruit once in a while. Students thought he was pretty interesting. At least he was very polite unlike the usual protestant lunatics.
Good news! Based on the state of the world today, compared against what God allegedly said to us humans, he either doesn't exist or lied through his teeth about his identity.
At least the pagan religions admitted that their gods weren't infallible and were capable of making catastrophic fuck-ups just like the rest of us. As opposed to the Abrahamic God, who is not so far removed from a self-insert Mary-Sue.
As atheist who does share this thought: Any of them seem quite unworthy of any respect by actions documented in their own holy books. They all tend to be quite smallminded and childish. Well. Not super versed into eastern religions, so maybe they have more well written ones there.
I enjoy the “western” approach to Buddhism. It’s pretty secular and almost psychology based. And from what I understand, Buddhism is the only religion that acknowledges that it will eventually fall by the wayside and it ALSO advocates letting religion go once it has gotten you to where you want to be/are the best possible iteration of yourself. I believe the passage goes something like>
Religion is a boat to get you from one shore to the other. You don’t live on the boat. Once you get to where you’re going, it’s ok to leave it behind. However, it will take much introspection and honest examination of self to get there and don’t expect to be the “same” person who started the journey.
But a lot of eastern manifestations of Buddhism have many buddhas and deities that I chalk up to cultural idiosyncrasies. Whatever. Take what you need and leave the rest. Good luck.
I'm not sure I understand this metaphor. What are the shores that religion takes you between? (No malicious intent in this question: legitimately curious)
I think it's pretty effective the way it is. I studied it a minute, unsure if it was taken in the 1960s or now, until I noted the URL on the sign. I'm thinking that was exactly the message they wanted to convey.
It fascinates me that this particular comment in a string of otherwise upvoted comments is the one that shot Imgur's dog. A reply that continues this very same conversation is uniformly upvoted. Imgur is a strange and silly place.
These morons have been around for a while in TX. They were seen consistently over the past couple of years at UT campus in Austin as well. While it’s still not good (obvi), they are well-known idiots. It helped ease my anxiety slightly knowing that they were not recently created by the election results.
Free speech. We’re a deep red state. Our state is gerrymandered to hell and our entire leadership is corrupt. Ted Cruz, Ken Paxton, Greg Abbott… these men probably started this group.
USA trying to beat south Korea in dropping birthrates because the men are so unfuckable. Ladies start carrying protection of some sort, even a pepper spray may save your life.
"The 4B movement is meant to serve as a direct opposition to South Korea's patriarchal state and combat its pro-natalist policies, which view women's bodies and reproductive abilities as tools for the state's future."
Not so much about about unfuckable men (though there are many of those) and more about no conditions in which to raise a child. Births are expensive, healthcare is expensive, higher education is expensive, schools aren't safe, grocery prices and rents are rising but wages aren't. All while a bunch of slobbering fascists, exploitative capitalists, religious hypocrites, and rapists are trying to force their morals on everyone, even if it kills them.
Not in US, but not having kids for simmilar reasons.+ climate crisis. Don't want them to suffer greatly in 60 years when it all completely goes to hell
hah if it dont go to hell even sooner give or take how bad trump manages to fuck with things. or should i say how well vance and his cronies get to fuck thigns up since i will be shocked if trump makes it or maybe i shouldnt it is the good that die young...
Ah, that's the one with those handy pills, correct? The ones needing to be taken internally? I thought it even cured fascism. Medicine is so wonderful.
I've been thinking about it, but I can be clumsy so I don't want to be a danger to myself or my son. But they make pepper spray guns, and I already have a tazer,
I think that is a smart play. There are so many reasons to not own a gun. And all gun owners with families must accept the possibility that they with their own gun may end a loved one’s life. I am not advocating for the murder of men. I want women to have the capability to clearly communicate that they will no longer tolerate the bullshit.
It is by no means the only way to go about it. Especially for people who are not comfortable with firearms. No one should purchase a firearm without also wanting to learn how to use it safely and maintain it. As well as accept and understand the consequences of the message a gun sends.
guess we should all start attempting to accept its morally okay to shoot your "friends &family" if they are actively harming you. you dont have to take the whole paranoia pill, but just always carry the thought anyone could betray you, as long as they dont its good but the moment they do claws should come out. an i dont want to be mistaken i dont blame victims i understand it is hard to act in the moment but sadly we are not in a world that affords us the luxury of "everyone should just behave"
so if we can at least try to train your mind now for it, even get those self defense classes in, i hope it will help save women, id rather we never have to use that training but i want to stress it we should at least try to have it in our back pockets with the pepper spray, in our hair with the hair pin, in our lungs and hands if we ever have to take that swing to save ourself cause we cant trust anyone else to come save us
