Republicans: β€œSharia law (ie rule by a holy book) is bad!”

Also republicans: β€œBiblical law (ie rule by a shorter version of the same holy book) is good!”

The US Constitution: β€œrule by any holy book is bad, sheesh”

PSA: swooping in, strawmanning what someone said, and gaslighting them over and over about the own post is not β€œcriticism.”

It’s trolling.

Ain’t no one got time for that.

Ok, if you want to keep trolling me about things I didn’t say, and imply that I must be a racist because of things you just imagined I said, that’s up to you.

But I’m done with this.

I think you’re really reading a lot into what I’m saying that I’m not saying.

Take it up with the OP, with whom I am also arguing.

So you’re going to tell me that women had equal access to the full scope of jobs men could have in the 50s?

Because what I was saying was they could typically get lower-paid and less supportive jobs, not that they could get no jobs at all.

Like I said, my grandmother was a part time mail carrier.

I’m not sure whom you’re arguing with, but I don’t think it’s me.

I wasn’t trying to present them as β€œrepresentative,” but I don’t think they had an uncommon setup.

Women typically couldn’t get much in the way of jobs, and when they did, they were paid pennies on the dollar a man got paid for the same work.

It was a shitty setup.

Was this an inevitable degradation based on rotten construction?

Yes.

Hence β€œblame patriarchy and Reagan.”

And I’m not saying that was a good or equitable distribution, mind. That structure was deeply rooted in patriarchal expectations and the oppression of women, who were expected to do a huge amount of uncompensated labor.

This would change, a little, but our economy would also plunge over and over.

My grandparents, in the 50s-60s, managed to get by with one major income (grandpa), one part time income (grandma), own their own house, and raise four kids.

This, of course, assumed my grandma would do all the housework herself, which was a full time job in and of itself.

Closest we got.

09.03.2026 16:35 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 2 πŸ“Œ 0

The closest we got was several generations ago.

Blame patriarchy and Reagan for the breakdown.

β€œPathetically racist white dudes” as a group shouldn’t have a homeland, because they’ll just be a problem for everyone else.

That’s the way it’s always been.

You’d think they’d eventually figure out they’re hurting themselves, right?

Right?

β€œRIGHT?!!” he screamed uselessly into the sun

Not addressing the meme, but imagine if Frodo and Sam got to Bara-Dur, found it seemingly deserted, then encountered a puppet on a tricycle inside.

Gold.

Sorry! I was writing all day.

INFERNO is book 5 of the Justice/Vengeance series, which has a number of spinoffs as well.

I’m currently writing THE DEVIL WITHIN, which is J/V book 6.

Indeed.

Rightwingers are marked by a fundamental inability to understand the basics of the media they consume.

All they understand is might makes right. As long as it’s a man being tough, they must be good, right?

Utter lack of curiosity is the mark of a seriously inferior person.

Sounds like a distinction without a difference.

Stephen Miller is Jewish.

Tonight on ABOMINATION VAULTS!

Our ironic heroes go seeking the third of the four Roseguard icons!

It's gonna be trickier to acquire than they expect... mostly because of the man called car, CARMAN RAJANI! (I swear I didn't make up that name!)

Is anyone surprised by this?

Honestly. The Israeli government is monstrous and open about it.

I've recently read about studies showing underdeveloped frontal lobes (the part of the brain associated with empathy and critical thinking) among rightwingers, who instead rely on their amygdala (associated with fear and intolerance for the unknown).

I'm not a neuroscientist, but that sounds right.

Agreed.

It’s fear. Fear of being trans. Fear of becoming trans. Fear of being treated as trans. Fear of being misgendered. Fear of being marginalized. Fear of being abused. Fear of losing their power.

Fear.

That’s why it’s called transphobia.

Just to clarify, I was admittedly guessing about a couple of those, but I’m glad to hear that breast implants are generally satisfactory.

Not that I personally much care, but it’s always good when people are happy with their bodies.

Well, we tried it the easy way.

Take Hegseth into custody immediately, pending charges for treason.

Imagine claiming to be Catholic β€œbecause it’s so old” and having the temerity to contradict the Pope.

Anyway yeah, JD Vance is a heretic, and the fact he hasn’t been excommunicated already is either a sign of the Pope’s grace or a tacit approval of fascism.

That line is fast approaching.
