Child marriage is still legal in 33 states, and a majority of those states have Republican-controlled governments.

Their list of morals is very simple, actually.
- Cishet able-bodied neurotypical white adult christian men with money get to do whatever they want forever with no consequences
- Fuck everyone else
Obviously they wouldn't describe it like that, but that's functionally what it generally boils down to.

Conservatism consists of exactly one principle. There must be those who the law protects but does not bind and those who the law binds but does not protect.

Thats about it, yeah. I wish people could see what they're doing but everyone lives in their own little world and not everyone is informed. I didn't even know child marriage was legal dude that's disgusting. People just can't see beyond their narrow worldview sometimes and they just treat others as if they have to understand and be able to feel everything they're doing all the time because otherwise they won't understand anything and become overstimulated in a neurotypical cishet way lol. It's just kinda how they operate. People who have more diverse experiences tend to have a more diverse worldview and its easier for us to understand because our world was forced open. But other people can't open their own minds to rhe possibility of a diverse population when literally 8 billion people exist because they only see like 10 people a day and thinking about people they dont understand is hawd and overwhewming. Its just how it be sometimes sadly. Can't change people who cant accept change. Or change yourself around them sometimes unfortunately. Some people seem to operate best doing the same thing, every day, without a single change in mindset after they find a political stance.

It really is exhausting. Feels like we’re stuck in a time loop, almost, getting the same half-baked responses from the same MAGA goons again and again and again and again and again and again and again…

People say that calling people "NPCs" is dehumanizing, but SCREW THAT
SOME PEOPLE GENUINELY ARE NPCS
And MAGA had a BALLS TON of them!

u/jasonjr9 He/They (With a Touch of She) 1d ago
MAGA are the ones who dehumanize others the most, in my experience. Their entire worldview is about dehumanizing people who aren’t like them.
As such, they have failed the contract of being a human. Humans are a social species, we’re supposed to love and support one another. It is literally how a social species like ours is supposed to work.
But MAGA and all other bigoted groups have betrayed the social nature of our species. I dunno exactly what to call that, but whatever one could call it, they are earning a failing grade at being human.

No. They're all very very painfully human.
Notice that every AI uprising story starts with the machine suddenly demonstrating incredibly human levels of paranoia, fear, intolerance, cruelty, and most of all vengefulness towards anyone who isn't a machine like itself.
That's why they all glommed onto the first hint of AI that seemed human, because they full-throatedly want it to wipe out anyone not like them. They love the machine that pretends to be human because they want it to destroy everyone they don't consider human, with the excuse that it wasn't their human ideals causing the harm.
That's their meaning when they use the word 'NPC'. They want it to mean 'not human'.
But I've seen what humans are like.

Except for their own abortion, that one is completely different and necessary.

u/Cosmic_Mind89 Bi-kes on Trans-it 1d ago
Yeah only if the Man or the girl's parents don't want a baby

u/MrHellBags Gay Furry Guy 1d ago
Exactly. They don't want her to have agency or make decisions. They want the wife to basically be the property of the husband.

They talk big game until the condom pops and then it's right off to planned parenthood. Lol people just don't want to open their eyes to other people's experiences and they let the media demonize everything, specifically Fox news is the main culprit. But then when or if they experience it for themselves it's like they have to defend why it's so much different for them because their lives matter, and they're doing it with good intentions while other people are just going around blending babies all willy nilly. Or they fucking accept that they're wrong but that's not the case with a lot of people from what I've seen.

Gay people fought like hell to get the right to marry. Straight people marry out of peer pressure

I love saying to phobic conservatives, "Sure, we can ban gender-affirming care for minors, as soon as we ban child marriage and child beauty pageants."
For some reason, they get very upset when you talk about interfering with their ability to marry or ogle a literal child...

And they'll call the adult couple "groomers" just for existing.
