There are many words you can use that don’t involve ableist language. If you’re using that word against someone you don’t like, you’re exposing that you have a problem with the folks the slur is intended to describe. Anyone who uses bigoted speech is no comrade of mine, and I don’t care who it’s used against.

Ok but I think making that joke using someone else’s minority status is pig behavior. But I was a teenager in the 90s when someone else thinking you’re gay could get you an ass-beating or get you fired from your job or worse (Matthew Shepard). Being an ally to lgbt folks in a lot of ways meant keeping your mouth shut way more than it meant speaking out. Maybe it’s different nowadays.

Or your cousin with the conservative parents who isn’t out and still lives at home…
For God’s sake please don’t do this.

Ok but please clean your sidewalks, people. Don’t use the environment as an excuse to be a bad neighbor. We still need to use the sidewalks.

I’m sitting at home in my tracksuit watching my Andrew Dice Clay tapes and an ad comes on but I’m so deep into a quart of Red, White, and Blue that I can’t find the fast forward button on the remote. Better post on lemmy
Call the nurse, smells like grandpa needs to be changed again.

Christianity is more about the beattitudes. The 10 commandments by themselves are Jewish.
- Comment on She strongly disagrees 1 week ago:
This is why the Bible is kind of a drag without the new testament. God is emotionally volitile, punitive, and illogical. Jesus provides a framework for redemption, which is what people need here in this life. Reading the new testament, even without the magic and miracles and omnipresent sky-god can give people real ideas about how they should interact with others in this corporeal existence. The old testament feels like kind of a bizarre fairy tale with some historical elements.

- Comment on How come NK doesn't just come out and say we are in trouble and need help? Like their lack of food and stuff? I really don't see a downside for a country admit they were wrong and need help 2 weeks ago:
A handful of ultra-rich people would lose a little bit of power and their entire social structure would collapse. That country won’t open back up without tremendous suffering, especially as long as the rich people in power stay rich and powerful by keeping things the way they are.
Similar to everywhere else.

- Comment on Always question those who are the "teachers" 2 weeks ago:
Ok, this is where we have a disconnect. Do you know how many translators, pop idols, and artists who sell there work at any kind of price there are? It’s not many. Look up how much the average author gets paid for their first book at a publishing house and you’ll see why pretty much all writers teach. You can be really good at STEM and make more than a teacher in your field, but the same isn’t true at all for arts, foreign languages, writing, phys ed… Even history and social studies.

No sane person should leave something that important to the sole responsibility of someone else no matter who they are.
- Comment on Always question those who are the "teachers" 2 weeks ago:
That’s something really ignorant people say. Teaching is about managing and forming personal relationships with large, diverse groups, way more than it’s about the subject of the class. If you’ve ever had a class taught by an alternative certification monkey who won’t shut up about their 15 years of industry experience, you know what I’m talking about.

Because anyone who knows how to use computers can make more money actually doing it than teaching it.
