Wow, haven’t heard that one yet, yeah, that’s pretty weird. What would even angels be male for? Oh, I’m thinking too much, this is not meant to be logical, right? Thanks for showing me another bizzare corner of religious thoughts.

All male. So no marriage, only sex.

If I made such a kick-ass sound track for it, I’d watch the movie every Christmas too.

So had I. That didn’t stop me from telling all the adults, unfortunately (for them).

Wait, you guys tell dad jokes to children?

I just hope she asked you to do it and enjoyed it a lot. Only that can make it good news.

Why use a pump when you have a diver.

I believe there are such people. But I don’t believe the female republican voter group is homogeneous.

The world is a colourful and diverse place. There are not only people wanting to be subjugated, but also those who are braindead, absolutely uninformed, scared shitless by propaganda, too naive to believe in the existence of evil… it takes all kinds to make a world.

I don’t think stupid people deserve bad things to happen to them, even though they often bring it on themselves as well as on others.

The fact that they are complete morons doesn’t mean they want to be treated this way. It is a case for the leopards, but saying this is not helpful to the potential victims from both camps.

Please, keep your empathy for women in general, they’re going to need it now more than ever.

Do you think Vance is going to be better?

See, god has total control, knows everything and is the ultimate good. Sounds like something that can’t be true when the world is the way it is? Well, someone very clever has found the perfect solution that explains everything: God must be extremely stupid.

It’s a pity that social policies are blamed for the fucked up history of the east instead of the real culprits - totalitarian regimes.

And it’s important to understand that those can develope anywhere, no matter whether the country is more socialistic or capitalistic or religious.

Managed to stop fascism? That was a collective effort, but ok. Stop totalitarian dictatorship? Not at all.

These things are all true. But the history tended to go the progress direction. Slavery was abolished, so was segregation, women got more and more of their rights. Things were gradually and often painfully getting better. Now it regresses.

Who’s going to war with whom? To me it seems more likely that all the countries are going to embrace totality peacefully.

Yes, that’s the problem. But how do you raise better people? Good education can give you better understanding of societal problems. Equality and tolerance can be taught, just like rasism and hate can be taught. A good education system can be the only way to cultivate people if the hate runs in the families. It takes several generations to make things better though.

I don’t think people will commit massive violence to save their rights. The majority just conforms to the regime (which many of them voted for and are comfortable with) and the minority is too weak. I think they’re going to obey and suffer quietly rather than risk direct oppression. Just like in other totalitarian countries.

I think there’s some kind of general fascination with rich people ingrained naturally in the human mind. It’s not just in comics. It’s present in many fairy tales, mythology, religious books…

Iagree it can help the rich to get away with things. But I also think it’s not fair to blame authors for using good old archetypes, while I also support kindhearted critique of those archetypes - it’s important to understand their role in social context and to make authors aware of the downsides.

I think that’s why op’s asking in the first place, right?

If you were republican and asked whether the democrats are as enthusiastic this time as the last time, it would be a perfectly legitimate question. The fact is, people tend to shade themselves from the online madness (good for them), but then they can’t be sure whether the madness continues with full force or not.

Asking about it seems logical. But neither you nor I are able to answer.

There are also cheap specialized squishy water bottles with little shower-like hooked ending that can be used as a bidet if you don’t want to bother with insalling a real one.
