You are always so goddamn right.

No. Until there are major changes to the way U.S. government works, there will only be two options. That is a direct result of the way voting works in the U.S.

As a fag do I have your permission to not support politicians who vote against my rights or is that being too “purist” for you?

So she was cool with the GOP if Cruz or Rubio had won, then?

Why is . . . but I mean . . . I am so sad now.

Yeah. I read the book after 9/11 and it was written in the early 80s, which made it feel pretty prescient in the fact that the Christian dystopia it depicted was a response to Islamist violence. It made it feel all the more realistic.

I think my dad told me that when he rented The China Syndrome and we watched it. I don’t remember the movie though.

It’s scary as hell. I’m a dude, and if you’re a woman I imagine it would be vastly scarier because it is all about a dystopia based on gendered violence. It’s super fucking scary and of course all the scarier in our political context.

Are my insecurities the reason you inspected my posting history to determine whether I was gay?

What facts do you want? You should work on asking better questions, that’s how you get the facts you need.

Citing references is another one of those things that costs money when you want a professional to do it for you. Same rate applies. To be honest, though, I don’t see the point, as no amount of references will help if you don’t have the most basic pieces of domain knowledge, which you seem not to.

Well, you’re absolutely right that the mental horrors of the cult end up hurting women more than men. But she still has more freedom than her kids to act, and there is a not insubstantial chance that he will choose to sexually abuse their kids. Anna has way less freedom to act than Josh does (ugh) but she’s still…

but I think Josh Duggar is the one who should bear the brunt of the blame.

🤔 Wait, so who brought up the fact that I’m gay, then? Was it me?

I hate myself for making that joke.

No, it’s not weird, but only a pompous jackass talks so much about all the things they supposedly know, but never even attempts to prove it.

What are we even arguing about?

A special kind of love that is our little secret.

Yeah. Religious groups of all sorts end up sheltering child abusers.

But child molesters aren’t necessarily pedophiles. I agree that it’s very possible that he’s not a pedophile, but he definitely IS a child molester. And it seems unlikely to me, given the cult he’s a part of and his and his family’s public statements, that he’s really done the kind of “moral inventory” or whatever…
