You don’t have to believe it! All they do is lie!

I can’t believe somebody downvoted you for this. They must be pretty fucking stupid.

Politics is everywhere because it affects every aspect of our lives even if we consider ourselves apolitical and don’t pay attention to the news or politics.

This story isn’t going away because even amongst the apolitical our healthcare system has fucked over nearly everyone either directly or a close loved one. The only people not getting fucked over are those on the tippy top. Even the upper middle class - if they get cancer they can lose their life’s savings. And our end of life care is essentially vultures picking clean a body only replace vultures with the health care system that keeps people alive for far too long past their natural life span to milk every last cent out of them.

You can’t be serious are you being serious right now??? Assuming this wasn’t sarcasm the police here lie all the time and it’s perfectly legal for them to do so.

If you ever come here for a visit, trust no one, trust nothing, don’t believe anything you hear or see and definitely don’t talk to the cops.

Now that’s a leap of logic if I’ve ever seen one.

If the manifesto is believed to be real and Luigi is the shooter, he did it because UHC is the biggest and denies the most claims by a long shot, a third or so, and then one of their medicare disadvantage plans uses AI to deny 90% of claims.

The fact that he’s a class traitor and this wasn’t a personal vendetta makes it even more respectable in my book.

Honestly - and I’m asking this in good faith - why do we need a federal department of education? Every state has their own department of education and sets their own standards anyway. Is it not redundant? Do they do something special? The only thing I can recall that was federal education related was no child left behind which destroyed education and just led to children passing grades that can’t read, write or do basic math. And of course the federal student loan program, which is just the government profiteering off its youth.

Note how I’m not asking why we need the FDA. There’s not even a question about how we need it. Arguably, we need more of it.

And does anybody do anything about it? No. They cry on social media and then forget about it. It’s time to depose our rulers. They make peaceful reform impossible so violence will be the answer.

Yeah, no. Fuck the democrats and the dumbass liberals who support them. Y’all get what y’all deserve. A fascist government. Biden admin had four years to prosecute trump for J6 and they slow walked the case. Democrats have had numerous opportunities to show a backbone and get shit done and time and time again they refuse to do anything except blame republicans and play identity politics. That’s all they have to offer.

Oh, this is lemmy world, sorry for hurting libs feelings. Jk, not sorry. Y’all shat on the left for years now you’re getting what you deserve.

Democrats refuse to hold people accountable and then are shocked pikachu face that they lose elections when they don’t even bother creating a platform besides we’re not trump. cope and seethe libs!

I mean, that’s a whole lot of words to say he’s a cop and all cops are bastards.

I laugh my ass off that during Black Lives Matter protests liberals voted for a fucking cop for vice president and a fucking cop for mayor of NYC. What the actual fuck you dumb fucking liberals. Learn something other than identity politics. I swear to god people just vote for people because they’re a minority, even if they’re absolutely fucking terrible.

I mean we are superior for other reasons. But no. The same internalized misogyny still applies. That’s why I wrote laughs in lesbian as if conquest is just a straight man thing.

Your sarcasm about us being the pinnacle of mental health is why you got the downvotes. It’s an allusion to gay = crazy, which ya know, with us being in the DSM until more recently is offensive.

Oh duh. Luigi needs to run for office.

Guy kills a CEO over his personal issues with treatment with no master plan or manifesto? That’s a terrorist?

Assuming the evidence found is legit and Luigi is the shooter, this is false. He never had UHC and he appeared to target them because they’re the biggest and deny the most.

The issue is the terrorism charge is about government not private business so the government is telling on itself that it considers private business to be one in the same.

Honestly the mafia should free him. Why not? Insurance companies are impeding on the mafias protection racket lol.

Fascinating that he’s right behind him. Perfect photo op. Isn’t he accused of crimes right now? Or just his close associates?

Bingo

Recently someone I used to be closer friends with but we rarely hang out anymore because he drinks too much, he came over a mutual friends house while I was there and would not shut the fuck up about how he wasn’t gay. But like… nobody said he was. It wasn’t even a topic of conversation. He was just drunk as fuck. It got to the point where I was like dude… you’re projecting is there something you wanna tell me? And then he shut up.

So it’s a small town… I ask one of my gay guy friends who knows him (all the locals know everyone it’s a smallllllll town) if he has any thoughts and it turns out drunk friend has unfortunately been a sex pest towards him.

Drunk is bisexual and not handling it well apparently.

So assuming good faith curiosity here, heteronormativity and compulsive heterosexuality are a thing. There’s huge social pressure to conform - as a child growing up I got constant messaging that one day I’d grow up, get a boyfriend, get married, have babies, etc. and so, starting to feel the pressure of being a late bloomer and not understanding that my awkwardness around other girls was because I was attracted to them (because that’s not like a thing), I found myself a boyfriend at 18 and we dated a few years because I really loved him and the sex was mostly enjoyable. But only a few months in I realized I was attracted to women, and it took a few years to fully accept it. Dating women is much harder, factually it’s a numbers game there’s just a lot less of us. But I dated a few over the years, and it took me seven years before I dated another man for a couple months, who I also love and I’m still good friends with today but we haven’t hooked up in almost a decade. And then there were a bunch of women since, some for a short time some for a long. I consider myself a lesbian through and through, although the label police will be like well acktually which is toxic as fuck. Obviously words have meaning but people have the right to express themselves as they see fit. Pedantic people would say I’m bisexual because I dared to sleep with two men in the last 18 years. I’d say I’m so rarely attracted to men that I actually stop and savor the moment when I do find one attractive, like seeing a rare bird or something lol.

So to answer the initial part about turning homosexual , I think sexuality is somewhat fluid and few people are 100% in either direction. Think of the most attractive male actor to you (assuming you are male). Would you be embarrassed if you woke up in bed (consensually of course) with them? Or would you be like damn alright well that was enjoyable but probably won’t happen again?

I don’t think I said any of that lol

Laughs in lesbian

Thanks lol
