I know that one like, really old cultural reasoning against any sex that isnt "penis in vagina" and masturbation is that its a "waste of resources" in that it wastes what could have been a pregnancy on frivolous "enjoyment" and therefor was considered bad but i dont know if that applies to any asian cultures.
I've read in the past actually that such is what the bible is primarily referring to with "sexual immorality."

they aren't idiots, they weren't scared off by "loud noises" they were scared off by a space wizard making the mating call of a krayt dragon, one of the most dangerous creatures not just on the planet, but in the galaxy, tuskan raiders are one of the most common killers of entire farms, sometimes entire towns.

i wonder what the reasoning is that lesbians are morally fine, trans people are morally fine, but gay men are morally wrong and thus should be illegal, there's GOT to be some sort of explanation for this yes?

if he had been there, untrained only having the skills of a farm boy, he probably would have died trying to protect her rather than actually succeeding in defeating the sand people.

if i remember correctly he went to the "suicide forest" in japan and made a video exploring it. At some point during the video, idk if it was a real thing or not i never watched it myself and barely know this from the memes from then basically, but they found a corpse and joked and made fun and were just generally really shitty regarding it, made it super clickbait advertising the fact they found it treated it in the least possible "this is a serious thing someone fucking died" way possible effectively

The use of the word "nazi" is also a bit egregious. Uninformed, misguided, "heart in the right place, sentiment sending them astray," all far more accurate than "person that is part of a party that committed genocide."

This^
the closest you'll find to Satan punishing sinners is the idea that Satan is the equivalent of a rabid dog put in a cage to stop it harming people, a small sideshow compared to the main punishment of hell, the lack of gods light and eternal damnation. If someone is being locked in the cage as punishment and a rabid dog is ALSO being locked in the same cage as punishment the dog isn't punishing the person, but them being there may cause extra grief that won't be objected to by the creator of the punishment.

i mean technically speaking they aren't SUPER wrong, just kinda off, which is odd for a troll account.
realistically speaking you generally shouldn't have an issue with the general group of humans who fit the category "pedophile." From what I've read the extreme vast majority of them are just a slightly different flavor of mentally ill person that deals with unhealthy brain things that cause them internal distress but never actually have any conscious wish or desire to cause a child harm.
Like, i get having a problem with the IDEA of pedophilia existing in the first place, or having a problem with people that harm/abuse/manipulate children, but having a problem with the "group of humans, pedophiles" isn't really any different than having an issue with the "group of humans, manic bipolar people."
-
that isn't to say that we should be accepting "pedosexual identity" as something that's ok, classifying that long straight and gay, normalizing ACTING on harmful urges, THAT'S despicable.

from an algorithm standpoint its better to have multiple task specific channels that stick to a theme that similar enough to itself that the same viewers will generally like all the videos ad watch them.
If you have a single channel or 2 channels with the main one being half of your stuff and the second one being the other half the algorithm will see that sections of your demographics dont like X or dont like Y and make it far less likely that your stuff will be shown to new people an in extreme cases make it far less likely itll be shown to your subscribers.

Am I correct in remembering the reason McDonald’s toys are not a thing anymore is because of some law stuff coming in and saying you can’t market food to children through toys or something like that? I know I remember something about why but barely at all. I do remember being fully STOKED to get a toy tho.

Also handguns are harder to buy than other guns in a lot of places explicitly because the extreme vast majority of gun crime is with pistols

Man, McDonald’s has really hardened up their happy meals. Who thought it was a good idea to need government purchase request forms and a background check to get a happy meal toy?

That’s a false equivalency. Improving safety regulations in regards to hot air balloons isn’t taking hot air balloons away from people that run hot air ballon related things in a safe manner already, it’s not even taking hot air balloons away from people that do it unsafely, it’s forcing people who are using hot air balloons unsafely to, while keeping said balloons, not use them in a way that hurts innocent people.
That’s the equivalent of hitting individuals who, in the past have or plan to in the future, use guns in a way that hurts innocent people while not doing anything to people who already have no real risk of harming an innocent individual, comparing it to gun control as generally gets put forth after a shooting is fallacious.

It's both kinda hilarious and embarrassing that this was accidental and just a prank at 3 comments

This kind of thing, specifically this way of something happening, seems to me like a really good thing because it gives that hard slap to the inside of the brain that maybe something doesn’t fit your internal thoughts in a way that you can’t ignore rather than something they can just rationalise away as still fitting their thought patterns. At least in this case I can definitely see the people doing this trying to rationalise it as “oh well they all just found it funny and voted for her as a joke” but that would require they forget that the original purpose of the “joke” was that she wouldn’t get any votes

as a rule, people will likely assume you are as dumb as you present yourself as. Ignorance is also not the same as a lack of intelligence.
