My mbin account doesn’t auto-upvote my posts or comments, and neither did my kbin account.

At the time I started using kbin, it was considered a character flaw to upvote your own content. Votes were also public.

There were a lot of typos in the linked announcement.

You could be a pregnancy fetish writer but also need to go to an obstetrician.

It’s not out of the question, given Israel puts the number at 70,000 and stifles independent investigation.

Murder is a loaded term, though.

Could still be for fetish content.

A lot of the pelts were ruined by blaster burns, unfortunately.

Eye witness reports show Iran is actively trying to disguise the death toll. That puts the burden of proof on Iran that their number is right.

10x doesn’t seem too far off. It’s like the number of rapes being notoriously higher than the number of reported rapes.

There are a lot of people worried about a large death toll being used to justify foreign intervention. Meanwhile, another uprising in Iran is being put down so their benevolent and wise rulers can hold power for another decade or two.

Not really. I get you’re using hyperbole here, but this kind of attitude is dangerous.

Scale matters. Every country is guilty of wronging its people. That doesn’t make all countries or all acts equal. If you can draw false equivalence between the US and Iran, then you can draw false equivalence between Norway and North Korea.

The US hasn’t crushed protests like China and Iran. What the US has done is very bad, but that just makes what’s described here as horrific instead.

I had to assume you were referencing the recent ICE killings. If you’re a Good Ol’ Boy still sore about being on the losing side of the Civil War, then I can see your point.

A man eating another man’s meat is gay. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

In the old days? I still do it. Just not that often.

As long as “I don’t like her anymore” is an acceptable reason, it won’t have a practical effect. But if you have to file according to a narrow set of categories like infidelity and abuse, that’s a problem.

I mean, it’s not. Unless you live in Manitoba.

My first thought. Would their politics shift right or are Manitoba and the PC only right-wing in the context of Canada?

Minnesota has about 4x the population of Manitoba, by the way.

The only billion dollar criminal enterprise allowed around there is the CCP.

I wish we had a good term to describe making assumptions about how an individual will behave based only on their nationality, race, or ethnicity.

That was a tough read.

The Douglass speech was “What to the Slave Is the 4th of July?”

If they’re brown, they can’t let you down.

Good. Thanks for helping me test this. Don’t worry about what I wrote, comrade.
