But they are not afraid of children dying, that’s totally fine. They’re afraid their kids might become “weird”. Because that is how they see autism, as being weird.
And as everybody knows weird is literally worse than death.

Maybe it’s just me, but I will take a PBJ dog treat over PBJ bologna.
Test_Tickles@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•‘60 Minutes’ airs scathing segment on ‘first felon in the Oval Office’ despite pressure to avoid sensitive stories about Trump1·2 days agoI think I understand propaganda well enough. I think you underestimate people’s intelligence and misunderstand how propaganda affects people. In your own story of dealing with propaganda, when confronted with conflicting information, you realized your error, or were at least open to learning more. Or is it that you feel that you are so much smarter than the average conservative that they are just helpless compared to you? You are correct that they are full of fear and anger, but I don’t believe it was something that just happened to them without them being able to do anything about it.
Also, not fascist? He straight out said he wanted to be a dictator, he praised Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un and, Hungary’s authoritarian leader, Viktor Orban.
And as for his first term, even if we pretend that his policies and actions didn’t significantly worsen the spread of Covid, and wipe Covid from the slate, his presidency was still a nonstop shit show that separated children from their parents for cruelty’s sake, got service men and allies killed, exposed, got tortured, and got murdered a significant part of our foreign intelligence gathering community. And that is just skimming the top and pulling out the easy stuff.
Test_Tickles@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•‘60 Minutes’ airs scathing segment on ‘first felon in the Oval Office’ despite pressure to avoid sensitive stories about Trump1·2 days agoYou are correct, they aren’t Nazis, not even close. But they are full of hate. Enough hate that they would prefer to be thought of as stupid, or easily fooled rather than admit why they chose to vote for someone who who is an open fascist, “admirers” Nazi generals, and was best friends with a pedophile. Trump is not some unknown. He has was not only president before, but his presidency was was disastrous and he exited with the worst polls of any president ever. They knew exactly what they were getting. They weren’t fooled. They weren’t conned or hoodwinked. They didn’t even lack for choice. There were plenty of other little fascist wanna bees running around trying to get elected.
Stop infantilizing grown adults. If they “didn’t know what they were getting” it is because they chose not to know. They purposely chose someone that they knew would hurt them because they expect him to hurt the people that they hate more.
Someone built a shortcut to a job hunting site into the OS itself. Someone who works on the OS and for the company that made the OS. I can’t think of any greater advertisement that working for Microsoft is awful than the cry for help that is building a permanent link to a job hunting website.
Me 30yrs ago: Solid wood? Are we calling 50% sawdust and binder “solid wood”? Lol…
Me now: it has like real wood mixed in, like from an actual tree? WTF, I that is way out of my league…
Look at that low US gravity, no wonder we’re so fat. And then there’s Australia and New Zealand over there breeding the next evolution of super humans.
But most of all, wtf is going on in the Indian Ocean? Does shit just randomly launch into space sometimes?
It was a bad day for America when schools stopped teaching home ec. We once had a friend live with us for a couple months who cooked eggs in a Saucier (sauce pan) full of oil. She kept the pan on the stove and every morning she would reheat the oil and essentially poach 2 eggs in a half a gallon of oil.
Test_Tickles@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Crazy idea, a phone setting that when enabled changes touch sensitivity settings to be more selective of touch inputs while in the shower..2·7 days agoMeteor or golden? I hate to nag, but the preparations of either one differ a little.
Test_Tickles@lemmy.worldto People Twitter@sh.itjust.works•It's really easy to take for granted since most of us have never known any different.1·8 days agoThat’s because you view things like this as isolated acts done by a few people. But don’t forget, only 1/3 of US voters tried to stop a man who openly declared himself a fascist, had already had a direct hand in the spread of a world wide plague that killed millions.
The “they didn’t know what they were getting into” excuse is no longer valid. And yet 2/3 of voters were fine with him being reelected . The reason those people weren’t dragged from their mansions and beaten to death was because of all the other monsters who were protecting them. The people who weren’t committing atrocities themselves, but benefited from it enough to help it keep happening.

Oh boy, you should sit down before you start catching up on politics in the US…
Your water heaters don’t have a “Steam Blast” setting? How do your bidets even work? Do they just dribble cool water on your anus? How weird.

Test_Tickles@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•It's kinda crazy that we willingly give money to companies in advance (say for gift vouchers and pre-orders)4·14 days agoGift cards are for people who you are obligated to buy something for, but don’t really like enough to put in any effort. They are a way of telling people, “I like this company more than I like you. I could have just given you money, but I couldn’t be bothered to shop for you, but I really wanted to make sure that any money I had to spend on you went to this company.”
If you don’t believe me, why would they just give you a universal gift card? Did you know that they have been making them right here in the USA for a couple hundred years now? They even have decorative pictures of us presidents on them. And they are not just good in the US, you will find that they are taken most places on the planet.
Look at this mother fucker in here rollin deep. He not only has Martini glasses, but he just got cotton candy on hand to shove in one.
Praying? Look at how he is dressed… He is clearly about to go in for a 2 handed karate chop.
Were they going through the changes? If so then maybe they were talking about menopause.
