As a European, I just can no longer follow the political discourse in the States. Whether in the form of memes or news - you can’t be serious.
This from over a decade ago…
I know. But since then it has only become more ridiculous.
Edit: I can’t tell the difference between Alex Jones and Donald Trump. The only difference I can see is that one still is somewhat in business and one is your candidate for the next presidential election. And to me it seems like they are both in the same business.
Points for making my lady laugh Don’t let them know I snorted she said, as she slapped my arm
It’s easy - one of them owes half a billion dollars in damages to families for claiming they were actually crisis actors and their kids really weren’t murdered by a mass shooter and the other one owes a few hundred million for a civil case of sexual assault that he’s challenging (and will probably have reduced some but not eliminated) in between prepping for four criminal trials (one of which is currently happening) - and THAT one is currently running for president.
I see. Not the agitator that is still spreading misinformation but the one with the fraudulent academy who is also spreading misinformation, owes the state of New York half a billion dollars for fraud and is apparently selling NFTs, golden sneakers, bibles and possibly state secrets - that one is running for president. Got it.
Right, the one that’s orange.
Do you think Europe doesn’t have pollution in agricultural run off?
It’s so difficult trying to get peopl here in non-america to care about real problems when everyone is under the impression america is the only place with problems.
In Germany, my home country, and also in the EU, there are of course also numerous problems - as in other parts of the world.
I find it funny because you’d think if the right wing is worried about chemical’s effects, that they’d be leading the charge to ban and restrict use of chemicals.
But they’re all free market, let the companies do whatever they want, government regulation gets in the way. It makes no sense.
See you don’t understand, when the government does it it’s bad but when companies do it it’s the free market at work and you shouldn’t interfere.

Except when companies do it in a gay way, then it’s against the constitution
Bisphenol A (BPA) is a chemical compound primarily used in the manufacturing of various plastics…
… The health effects of BPA have been the subject of prolonged public and scientific debate. BPA is a xenoestrogen, exhibiting hormone-like properties that mimic the effects of estrogen in the body.
Bisphenol A (BPA), a hormone-disrupting chemical used in food packaging, is present in almost all Europeans’ bodies, posing a potential health risk.
A recent Horizon 2020 research initiative, HBM4EU, measured chemicals in people’s bodies in Europe and detected BPA in the urine of 92% of adult participants from 11 European countries.
The Copenhagen-based EEA said the share of adults exceeding the recommended maximum levels ranged from 71 to 100% in the 11 countries studied, referring to levels outlined by the European Food Safety Agency (EFSA) in an April review.
I’ll just leave this for you to read further on this. https://www.google.com/search?q=bisphenol+a+european
If you want to debate this you are accused of being [buzzword]fobic or a [buzzword]ist.

That absolutely isn’t why people call Alex Jones (what I’m assuming you self censored here) homophobic and sexist, lol.
I don’t understand what point you’re trying to make by throwing some random guy’s name into the conversation.
My bad, I assumed that since you were commenting on a post about a meme coined by Alex Jones you were talking about him. Maybe you could be more specific? Who is getting called homophobic and sexist (or whatever you actually mean, if not that) for what you posted?

Ah, see, why you get called transphobic is for several reasons:
-
You assume that the number of young transgender people is increasing simply because more are now safe enough to come out and because you’re hearing about it more now. See also: the rate of left-handedness in the US by birth year. The rate of left handedness didn’t quadruple because chemicals in the water were making everyone sinister, it’s because they stopped beating the shit out of children for writing with their left hand.
-
You speak about being transgender as a disease caused by environmental contamination. I will not elaborate on this one further as I feel what is wrong with that to be self evident.
The truth is trans adults are trans kids first, even if they aren’t able to express it to other people (for safety reasons or because they don’t understand it themselves). There have also been trans people (who again, were children before they were adults!) documented throughout history in essentially every society, regardless of how respected they were. If it’s plastic that’s turning all the kids trans, then that doesn’t fit the historical evidence; trans people existed long before plastics.
You’re entitled to your own opinions, you’re not entitled to your own facts. Which is what Alex Jones does, and why the comparison is getting drawn here.

I am taking this opportunity to share what I coincidentally found this morning: https://froglord.bandcamp.com/album/save-the-frogs
Frog core? It’s like doom/sludge metal about frogs and the dangers of pollution.
Fuck yea, more froglord acolytes! I’ve been pushing this band hard on anyone who will listen

Oh, the huge manatee!
Is that game grumps
I’m seeing a lot of them lately.
MOAR!
Careful with memes: the pearl clutchers might come out of the woodwork. They seem bad lately
can confirm
Ok, this got a pretty loud laugh out of me. Well done. What am I, a gay fish?
