Lots of people argue with me that such and such religion doesn’t actually follow whats written in the book. I argue they aren't actually that religion then. If the book is the literal word of your god, who are you, as humans, to reinterpret it to make yourself feel better? Cope

@FPAnarchast Pattern recognition is a natural human survival mechanism, and while treating every single person as an idividual is the ideal, I will never know every single person in depth, and so to judge on the flag one flies as a general metric without other information is reasonable.

@Yeahitsfineokay Lots of people do bad things. I guess we could say everybody is bad because we all belong to a culture and people in our culture do bad things. Or, we could judge individuals based on their individual actions.

Think about the fact the men in these rape gangs could easily call up a whole group of men to come and join in on abusing a young girl and then tell me its not cultural.

@FPAnarchast Ideological culture requires you to subscribe to a set of beliefs. When that set of beliefs has harmful elements and you choose to subscribe to it, you are implicitly endorsing those elements. If you don't subscribe, leaving the ideological group would be the logical move.

It feels like fewer people than ever understand basic things. Nuance, critical thinking, common sense, etc. Isn't society supposed to move forward progressively? Why are these things so heavily lacking when we live in such an advanced time. Is life too easy, so effort is dead?

@benshapiro Calling people names instead of arguing better is a leftist tactic

@FTL_Bonnie I sometimes use it when typing because less thumb moves and being lazy/efficient. I will just send the eggplant in the future 😌

Why does everyone say “v*ggies” instead of vegetables like even the most serious of people. It pisses me off to hear that word

Eat a dick @Flock_Safety

4 federal agencies ruled bitcoin was not money til it came time to weaponize it against Ian Freeman and then retroactively punished him by bypassing congress, making a new law and calling it regulatory Interpretation and called it unambiguous after the chevron ruling. Free Ian.

Now that my summer garden is producing and my flowers are blooming its time to plan all my fall planting. Aiming to collect every fragrant perennial that thrives here so next spring its like walking into a Florist.

Starting a diary full of lies so when I die my loved ones read it and go: “Wait… WHAT?” Confusion is my final gift.

Personal responsibilty is dying and I blame a large part of that on every single person that manipulates a situation to the outcome they want by making these out of thin air sociological excuses. Bad things happening doesnt excuse you making from bad choices. Own yourself.

This man was accused by software of running a red light in Florida while he was in Alabama. Red light cameras are unconstitutional because they shift the burden from the state to prove guilt to the driver to prove his own innocence.

Oi! You got a loicense for that cooled air, mate? England sounds like a hellscape

@TheSynthBaron The pussification of men has always been intentional and from all sides. I am worried about the World my girls will grow up in.

@Yeahitsfineokay the future consists of weak men wondering why they didn't stop a true rape culture from having full political power and military control over their ballistic nuclear missile subs

I have now read the Rape Gang Inquiry Report in full. I've been following this story quite closely for something like a decade so I'm not exactly surprised by its contents, but three elements stand out to me amongst the horror. The first is that a large majority of the victims who provided testimony describe some kind of troubled or disrupted home life. Some were molested by family members before the rape gangs ever got ahold of them. Others faced physical abuse, neglect, drug addicted parents, housing instability, and so on. Their testimony often describes a kind of "screening" process where a girl's particular vulnerability was evaluated with more moderate boundary pushing before escalation to full on rape and abuse. This isn't necessarily surprising given the nefarious intentions the gangs had for these girls, but their willingness to explicitly target the absolute most vulnerable children who were already struggling sickens me. These girls, more than anyone, needed some kind of adult guidance in their lives, and this vulnerability was cynically exploited to initiate them into an even more egregious Hell. Which brings me to the second detail, which is the extreme violence these girls were subjected to. "Grooming Gang" is an unacceptable euphemism that may accurately describe common initiatory tactics employed against these girls, but which criminally downplays the behavior of their abusers once initiated. These girls were not "merely" groomed into sex. They were not "merely" raped. They were not "merely" trafficked. They were subjected to a program of overtly racialized sexual torture and humiliation designed to maximally degrade them and kill them in their souls. And this was "acceptable" because they were White and not Muslims. This detail fundamentally alters the character of these crimes. This was not horny men out of control or even cross-cultural understanding gaps around the age of consent. This was a targeted program of ritualized torture and subjugation as a means of ethnic domination. In other words, these gangs are conducting war against the White British using serial child rape and torture as a form of conquest. These are not crimes in the conventional sense. These are war crimes being conducted by one civilization against another, and they need to be treated as such. And finally, the third point (encapsulated in the excerpt below) is that every single level of the state utterly failed these girls in the most egregious and unfathomable ways imaginable. It's one thing when you have no physical evidence and are confronted with a "he said / she said" situation with respect to a rape allegation. It's another thing entirely when you have a pre-teen frequent flier at the NHS back again for her Nth sexually transmitted disease treatment, a 13 year old with broken glass shards embedded in her vagina, or a pregnant 13 year old. These are cases with obvious alarming physical evidence that no one addressed in any meaningful way. Politicians (Labour in particular) covered it up and suppressed action into investigations in order to maintain the Islamic bloc vote. Police suppressed investigations, dismissed accusations and evidence, intimidated victims into silence, arrested victims for the crimes of their abusers, dismissed proven cases of rape with impotent warning letters, and in some cases directly raped the girls themselves. Care homes disregarded obvious signs of abuse (including outright confessions), and enabled their abusers to maintain consistent access to the girls, in some cases acting more like pimps than caregivers. Social workers addressed victims' needs so incompetently they recommended victims audition for a TV show role about being a child prostitute because it was "relatable" and even attended a victim's coerced sham marriage to her abuser. NHS staff consistently failed to do anything in the face of overt medical evidence of obvious, undeniable sex crimes against these girls, treating the acute problem and sending them on their way with no protection whatsoever. And teachers, much like the social workers, routinely delivered their students into the predatory arms of their abusers as they waited outside the schools, and utterly failed to appropriately address signs or confessions of abuse. Virtually every arm of the state is directly complicit in exacerbating the abuse. Not one single institution at any level reliably offered protection or recourse to these girls. As far as I am concerned I Restore government would be entirely justified in firing every single person in the employ of the state. If they are not a documented whistleblower they are complicit and thus compromised, and none of them have any business retaining their roles or their pensions. On the contrary large numbers of state officials deserve severe penalties for criminal negligence or outright complicity in these crimes. Justice for these crimes will necessarily take place at a scale that will shock the pacified sensibilities of the over-socialized Liberal West, but nothing short of a biblical level reckoning will be sufficient to qualify as justice in this case. @RupertLowe10 is not wrong to draw comparisons to the Holocaust. It is the only appropriate frame of reference in the popular zeitgeist that articulates the actual magnitude of what was allowed to take place under successive British governments. Nor is he wrong to propose the reinstatement of the death penalty as the appropriate restitution for these crimes. The rapists and state officials who enabled this atrocity both deserve to hang. And I pray that the British public will entrust Rupert with the power to deliver justice long overdo. In any case I am deeply appreciative of his efforts to bring this to light. He is the hero Britain needs right now. Vote Restore. Deliver these girls justice.

If an accusation is enough to take away a right, no right is actually secure.

Do not waste your time on trying to talk to someone that engages in the widely used tactic of taking your argument and framing it in the worst way possible to try and assign motives to your position. You will never have an honest diacussion with them. Low effort and boring.
