My mom believes the bullshit about LGBTQ being a mental illness. Can’t wait for it to get worse! Thanks Facebook!
I find homophobia to be a mental illness. I mean it’s right there in the name.

At a certain level ($10 million?) they stop being a symbiote and becomes a parasite.
The mental patients both own and run the asylum.
No what you do is rapidly freeze them and then use a little file to break them apart.
Is this the recipe for Torgo’s Executive Powder?
I thought it was how you got rid of warts but I’m not actually sure. Maybe after they’re removed they get ground?
Billionaires have mental illness and have negatively affected me and society as a whole more than any gay or trans person ever could.
Immense wealth is not compatible with the moral life. It’s also not compatible with Christianity, but I don’t think any of them truly care about religion. The drive for greed should be a mental illness, especially when it’s at the cost of empathy.
“And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.”
But what if the two penises touch? And they like it?
What do you mean “now?” I’ve been seeing people say that for years.
Yup, and if you reported it as hate speech they’d review it and say it doesn’t go against community guidelines.
And then YOU get banned for “abusing the report feature”.
Reported a blatantly bigoted post saying that all gays should be burnt alive and I got a 30 day account suspension.
It’s just they’re updating their terms now that Trump is in power. Hate started to rise since the beginning of GenAI on the platform, I highly suspect due to the backlash from socially progressive people against it, and techbros didn’t appreciate that. They’re going mask off now after the elections.
Yeah the left wants things that actually hinder the oligarchs, the right wants to complain about them but will settle for people they don’t like being hurt. Tech companies understand that.
There’s also the fact that the bay area has spent quite a while having the sort of people who love to treat equal rights as a thought exercise
Zuck is one of humanity’s cancers
Maybe the next Luigi can fix the Z problem
might as well kill the tr*mp and the couch fucker
And maybe the M problems
As far as internet content goes, hate is winning. All the major social media platforms have been overrun by sexist, racist, LGBTQphobic commentary. And these platforms will simply follow the money, pushing hate content via algorithms as good people leave the platforms.
And these platforms will simply follow the money
This, remember that every single pride sponsorship and rainbow coloured logo was approved by a marketing department after extensive market research deeming it to be profitable
And only broadcast in subregions of their market where they know it’s a good PR move.
This couldn’t be further from the truth.
It’s worth noting you’re only allowed to insultingly say someone has a mental illness in relation to their gender or sexual orientation.
Do not post … Insults, including those about: … Mental characteristics, including but not limited to allegations of stupidity, intellectual capacity, and mental illness, and unsupported comparisons between PC groups on the basis of inherent intellectual capacity. We do allow allegations of mental illness or abnormality when based on gender or sexual orientation, given political and religious discourse about transgenderism and homosexuality and common non-serious usage of words like “weird.”

Edit: and the changelog is a hoot.
So it’s ok to say that zuckerfucker developed mental illnesses due to excessive zoophile orgies
Fuck Mark Zuckerberg, evil motherfucker.
When we start to say “bad things” about the oligarchy watch hoe fast they shut that down
Mark was never a source of good in this world.
According to the text messages, Zuckerberg wrote, “Yeah, so if you ever need info about anyone at Harvard, just ask me. I have over 4,000 emails, pictures, addresses, SNS.”
In response, a friend inquired, “What? How did you manage to obtain all that?”
To which Zuckerberg callously replied, “People just submitted it. I don’t know why they ‘trust me.’ Dumb f****.”
Fuck Meta and Zuck. I wish I could stop using WhatsApp, as every other Meta product is out of my devices already.
Every journey needs a first step.
Try to convince some of your contacts to use something else. Repeat until a large chunk of your contacts are available outside WhatsApp, and make yourself increasingly harder to access through WhatsApp and increasingly easier to access on your preferred alternative.
Let’s for a second assume it is a mental illness, how does that make the people feel who are experiencing it? Do they feel loved and understood? If you suffered from the same mental illness where the most effective treatment is tolerance and acceptance, how would you like to be treated?
It’s America, love and understanding are not things we do here.
Honestly, I think you’d be surprised. I live in a very red state, and my work participates in the local Pride parades (free rainbow shirts, and a tent), and I see a lot more pride flags in my neighborhood than Trump flags. Granted, my company is in a liberal, but my neighborhood is in a very conservative area (usually 70-80% for the GOP candidate).
Of course, outward displays don’t mean as much as actual relationships, but it’s a lot better than people make it out to be.
We are pretty far from ideal though, but we’re largely moving forward (two steps up and one step back).
They pretend they don’t hate gay people but vote for people and policies that are virulently homophobic. It’s all performative bullshit so they can pretend they’re still good people.
Political party platforms and public opinion are rarely aligned.
For example, there was a ballot initiative to dramatically expand medical marijuana to the point that it was almost recreational (allowed growing your own for personal use), and it passed. The legislature largely rejected it and submitted a much weaker bill and people were pissed. On the flipside, the legislature unanimously passed a ban on conversion therapy, so I guess there’s some hope.
People have a lot of reasons to vote the way they do. Most campaigns in my state focus on fiscal issues, and the local Democratic party pushes for things the voters don’t want (usually higher minimum wage and education spending), while Republicans push for things voters do want (lower taxes mostly). The Democratic party doesn’t even seem to be trying to court the middle, but the one candidate who did won a seat, and then that district was gerrymandered into safety.
Public opinion rarely matches the legislature’s agenda. So it’s unfair to blame the public for what their representatives do.
Let’s for a second assume it is a mental illness, how does that make the people feel who are experiencing it? Do they feel loved and understood?
“Hate the sin, love the sinner” has been the historical approach far-right evangelicals use to gull parents into conversation therapy for their kids.
Conservatives have adopted much of the same liberalish compassionate language up top and horrifyingly brutal physical, emotional, and sexual abuse on the back end for drug rehabilitation and prison reform.
The American idea of love and understanding is to brainwash them into compliance with social norms, while insisting the torture they’re inflicting is a kindness.
“Hate the sin, love the sinner”
The problem is that people don’t actually do the second, they replace “love” with “pity.” Pity isn’t love, it’s intolerance. If you truly love someone, you won’t care whether they sin or not, you’ll just love them for who they are and want them to be the happiest they can be.
Whether homosexuality is a sin shouldn’t be relevant at all, sin is between an individual and their god, especially in Christianity.
The problem is that people justify their intolerance by misinterpreting or misapplying phrases like these. They think things like conversion therapy is a demonstration of love, when in fact it’s a demonstration of brutal intolerance.
The root of the problem here is intolerance, not the words we use to describe something.
It should be noted that the framing of it as a sin was after the medical community accepted its not a mental illness. Before that it was “you’re sick and need help”.
Billionaires have a mental illness
People are free to out themselves as ignorant on Meta. Technology is getting crazy.
I like how he went from the Caesar cut and bland shirt to the style of what current-day 16-20 year old guys are rockin.
And by “like,” I mean that I’m glad he still looks uncanny despite how normal his new style is, because he’s a POS and nobody should sympathize with him.
Now he just looks like Andy Dick.
Minus the Andy. So, just a dick.
They always did because their moderators didn’t act upon old rules anyway.
