@RdHdSteppeson @travis4nh No, I'm not asking you if infertile people getting married changes the definition. What I'm asking you is simple, if someone is infertile, why would they get married?

@Correct_Thing @travis4nh This was addressed in the video.
The point is about what marriage is, in principle, not litigating upon specifics.

Grown adults will look at this, clench their fists, and GENUINELY get upset at a little pin that stands for nothing but a positive message. We (usually) live for less than 100 years, minuscule in the grand scheme of the universe. Yet, some people will allow their indoctrinated prejudices to dictate how they feel about something as amazing as love. If you are one of these people, before you go into the replies of this post and hit me with a “GAYYYY” or some cringey Homelander gif, I want you to just think about how irrelevant your existence truly is. How irrelevant MY existence is. And then I want you to really consider whether it’s even remotely worth it to uphold views with such unnecessary hatred. Who are you helping? Is that how you want to spend your very limited life? If so, then you are beyond saving, and if you’re religious then you should educate yourself about the actual values of whatever it is that you believe in (which most likely involves spreading peace and love, not hatred). Happy Pride month. I’ll lose followers for this post but I don’t care. If you’re someone who is as gullible as to allow somebody else to control your own views and opinions (since nobody is born homophobic) then I don’t want you following me anyway.

The whole European narrative is crumbling…
The United States: has bigger homes, bigger gas stations, bigger everything, and we love life.
The whole “you will own nothing and be happy” is for suckers. Now it’s being exposed.

DUDE LMAO THIS IS A GAS STATION😭😭😭

@RdHdSteppeson @travis4nh Okay, why would two infertile people get married if they cannot reproduce?
English
@Correct_Thing @travis4nh You are begging the question; we don’t agree with your conclusion and indeed think your mindset is actively harmful.
We don’t even accept your framing of it as a Right. That has a distinct meaning.

@RdHdSteppeson @travis4nh - that marriage is a union between two people in love, not a union between two people having children. So, given the modern purpose of marriage, why should gay people not have the right to marry?
English
@RdHdSteppeson @travis4nh Maybe that was the original purpose of marriage, but it's clear today that marriage as a social construct is not done purely for procreation. As is mentioned in the video, infertile people get married. Men and women get married and never have kids. It's clear that today-

@EmpireEnjoyer3 @AmericanKaiser3 Still coping about a war lost 80 years ago
English
@AmericanKaiser3 Air Force and paratroopers could have successfully taken out the UK.
English
They could have won if they didn’t split up Army Groups Center and South on the Eastern Front in 1943 and went all in on Stalingrad with Army Group South and all in on Moscow with Army Group Center and North.
A tactical retreat in North Africa in 43 was also needed to fortify Europe. Italy was the weak link.
Should have finished the battle of London in 1940 and continued to hit RAF airfields as they were on the brink of collapse, then followed through with an invasion before December 1941. America wouldn’t have joined the war and peace talks could have ensued.

@RdHdSteppeson @travis4nh So, because gay people have no way to procreate, they should not have the right to marry? That's the point being made here? Just to make sure we're on the same page.

@CultClassicCage Sorry, you can't own a billion-dollar industry
English
@RdHdSteppeson @travis4nh Congratulations, you can think? Go on, then. Explain why someone might be against gay people, if you're so smart.
English
Right, see, you should take a second and consider your failure here. Your opponents have considered this, and come to other conclusions. Reflect on your own inability to grasp how, even if you disagree.
Most of your enemies can articulate and understand your positions, you know?

We must secure the existence of our people and a future for White children.

@RdHdSteppeson @travis4nh No, I can't really understand why you can't let people do what they want. They aren't hurting anyone. Why do you care if two men are fucking?
English
@Correct_Thing @travis4nh That’s not really the answer. I mean steelman it. Construct an argument.
I think you folks don’t understand the other side. You cannot mentally model them, no empathy.

The world's first trillionaire is backing the far right mobs and their politician backers. Don't think for a second that these men have ordinary people's interests at heart.

@KampfgruppeKrag I think nukes count as superweapons

@Correct_Thing @travis4nh Ok, can you articulate a reason folks would oppose the first half of that. Not just ‘hate,’ but a reason, even if you disagree?

@castle51020 @ShaunDucky The first video game made by a woman was The Sumerian Game, 1964. So, unless you're older than 61, women have been in games longer than you've been alive.

@ShaunDucky "It's not just a male hobby anymore." That's like a colonizer telling an African that Africa is no longer just a black country anymore
You colonized the space now you want to be respected - no, f you, f your colonizers, you tourists don't belong in this space

It's not just a male hobby anymore.
All the other anti woke grifters will agree though, they don't want YOU in gaming. I'd say hobby but they don't play games, I guess their hobby is complaining.
Savvy ( ˶ˆ꒳ˆ˵ )@MadamSavvy
Gaming is a male hobby.

@RdHdSteppeson @travis4nh Supporting gay people means letting them have the legal right to get married, and ending hate crimes against them. It's not complicated.
English
@Correct_Thing @travis4nh You don’t actually have a concept of what ‘supporting gay people’ means nor can understand why folks would disagree.

British food beats Mexican "food" by a country mile. Mexican slop is literally tortillas covered in sick with a few beans

Eating in Mexico coming from England or Scotland has got to be a transcendent experience. Like seeing colors for the first time

@RdHdSteppeson @travis4nh Yes, supporting gay people is the correct position.
English
@Correct_Thing @travis4nh Notice how you just assume a given position is correct and thus are flippant about it.
