Yeah, poor guy. I can’t be easy to be named after a foul mixture of shit and cum.

[–] Bzzbiotch 11 points 1 year ago

You forgot the lube and the froth…

[–] noxy@yiffit.net 1 points 1 year ago

Don't forget the third ingredient, lube!

Cons: "We don't want to ban abortion, we just want to return sovereignty over the issue to the states."

States: make abortion a right

Cons: "No, not like that..."

Yeah, democracy sucks when the people are ignorant, vile, and selfish.

What the people in Ohio did was realize that empathy and human rights were good. They rejected fascist culture war bullshit and I wish them the best. I hope my state could act like this.

Make no mistake, Ohio will still vote Trump +10 to +15 whether he’s in jail or not. Thankfully this state had a moment of clarity though.

“That’s not fair, we worked really hard disenfranchising these kids. Putting popular policies forward is cheating.”

I don't get why we can't do whatever we want to serve our donors wahhhhh

[–] snoopfrog@midwest.social 3 points 1 year ago

This is the perfect situation where a purely democratic vote is appropriate (not that we should even have to vote on this, but I digress). This doesn't affect your wholesome, small-town voter at all. All they have to do is not have an abortion, and they can make abortion illegal within their own life just like that. Of course people are going to vote for the freedom of their own choice as to whether they have to carry a parasitic body within their own. They should have that freedom to do it or not to do it.

Isn't this guy named after the mixture of frothy cum and shit after anal sex? Must be hard having a name like that.

My problem isn't capitalism, my problem is that capitalism has determined that a democracy is hurting it's profits.

[–] seahorse@midwest.social 12 points 1 year ago

My problem is definitely capitalism.

Have you heard about Central America? Or any oil rich country? Capitalism is a double edged sword, they’re just swinging it at home now.

[–] frezik@midwest.social 3 points 1 year ago

Capitalism would be great if we could run it under constrained conditions that don't exist outside of a single pub somewhere in Birmingham.
