1. People are more willing to be honest now.
2. How much of that sex in the past had the same amount of consent?

Oh give him credit. He ran up the national debt pointlessly before the pandemic.

Thats because Obama fixed an economy a republican had broken, and it took a long time to reverse that. How were things by the end of this cheeto nazi’s first term?

Unforgivable to remotely support this pedophile who wants to murder anyone he doesn’t like, and this has been known about him for decades. Look at the central park five amd his years of vommentary about his own daughter, all before the first term.

Your dad has zero fucking morals.

ba dum tss

Turns out they liposuctioned brain cells to use as filler for those lips and airbags.

I have zero of that family anymore. It was literally how they made my partner feel that made me snap and just be done with them all. My partner is more important to me than their abuse and disrespect. It was merely nostalgia for some kind of Stockholm Syndrome anyways. I don’t need it, and at some point if I hadn’t done something, it’d be my disrespect to my partner to not deal with that family of mine.

There’s potentially a conversation that you both deserve better.

Why do people need excuses? Why do people waste their lives lying? Just say it like it is:

You know what you’re saying. You know what you’re doing. You can either be a mature and respectful adult, or we can leave.

It was how my family treated my partner that finally helped me snap. No contact for a decade. Fuck those assholes. They never learn and have no respect to for others. I would hope a good partner would take notice of how their family is.

I don’t understand why people put up with shitty family amd pretend to have common values or interests. What a waste of your precious life.

In OPs case, I’d straight up tell them they know exactly what they’re doing, and if they were mature and respectful, they would stop.

If they don’t, fucking leave.

Best thing I ever learned from someone else:

Would I associate with these people if they weren’t blood?

Go learn simple regression analysis (not necessarily the commenter, but anyone). Then you’ll understand why it’s simply a prediction machine. It’s guessing probabilities for what the next character or word is. It’s guessing the average line, the likely followup. It’s extrapolating from data.

This is why there will never be “sentient” machines. There is and always will be inherent programming and fancy ass business rules behind it all.

We simply set it to max churn on all data.

Also just the training of these models has already done the energy damage.

Wait for Gen X to pop in as usual and seek attention with some “we always get ignored” bullshit.

And character is like a tree and reputation is a shadow of it, and it takes a hell of a lot less to bring it down than to grow it up.

I’ve watched this go down long enough in enough industries to know better than to believe their claim of not logging.

You’re being watched. Hell, your data’s probably being handed over to cops without your knowledge.

Knowing a company is watching me because it’s openly known, is to me better than paying a company to not watch me and likely risk them simply selling out eventually like they all do.

It’s funnier when you stupidly expected them to protect you, PAID them for it, and they don’t.

It’s like 23andme. Too fucking funny and everyone deserves it for their stupidity.

VPNs are wild to me. “Hey! Pay some company to promise not to watch you so you can pretend to be private and not have some company watching you.”

That doesn’t make it okay. This God was just okay with that? Hahaha. Fuck that.

I was also raised in that shit. Of course I’m fucking warped by it.

This shit is fucked up and ANY defense of these scriptures is automatic red flag for hateful bigotry.

Well no fucking shit. My own issues are called “the fucking Christian abusers who used this shit against me and anyone else to stave off any responsibility for anything.”

If it hadn’t affected me negatively I’d probably not give a shit what some people’s scripts say.

Thanks for reminding me of one of so many reasons I abandoned the family from my childhood and all their toxic abusive apologists in our schools and churches.

Incredible you’re in here defending throwing your own children to mob rape.

I will tell you from experience that in religious schools and churches they LOVE to obsess over the tiny line of Lots wife looking back and turning to salt, while pretending the other shit didn’t happen or avoiding the topic, or giving it a simple “he was weak or scared” or making it some kind of non-literal thing when convenient (and then other times angrily demanding the Bible is literal).

Allegory or not, Lot is a piece of shit, and it’s unsurprising that a man who would offer his daughters to a mob for rape would also raise them to think sleeping with him is okay. Its reflective of his character; the way they think.

Also, he knew what they did and let it happen. If he was THAT passed out drunk to not remember or know, he was not erect. He fucking knew and let it happen.

Let’s pretend this is merely a story to teach a lesson. Wow. That’s the best they got? This is the kind of guy that is worth saving from the town before destruction? This is what these religions held up at the time as the primo example of someone to save and keep alive? They have no better way to teach lessons about fearing God, much less morality.

Fucking pathetic for anyone to even attempt the apologetics on this.

Nah, THEN you’re competing with Leo DiCaprio until age 25.

Because the New Testament is better? The NT is especially sexist towards women. Like:

• they need to be quiet (1 Cor 14:34-35)
• they can’t divorce but men can (Matthew 5:32 and 19:9) and it implies she has no autonomy since his act alters how she is viewed
• also 1 Timothy 2:9-15 is quite the ride, with dressing modestly to worship God, be quiet, fully submit, no teaching a man, be quiet again, men came first, women sinned first, and only birthing children can save them.

Holy shit. Those are just a few.

But it is true the Old Testament is quite the doozy.

We gotta go back to the good Old Testament for one of my favs (Genesis 19):

Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom—both young and old—surrounded the house. They called to Lot, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them.”

Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him and said, “No, my friends. Don’t do this wicked thing. Look, I have two daughters who have never slept with a man. Let me bring them out to you, and you can do what you like with them. But don’t do anything to these men, for they have come under the protection of my roof.”

Then later his wife was turned to salt cause she bad (because of course only women do bad things, didn’t yiu know? /s). Then his daughters, who had been spared what you read above, wound up getting their dad drunk and fucking him in a cave to continue the bloodline.

Now, realize this whole story is being told cause Lot was the right God-loving soul they just HAD to save before Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed. Everyone else was “worse?”

The lesson I was taught when I was younger was that Lots daughters were evil and this was in zero way Lots fault (the incest). He apparently didn’t raise them to be that way. You know, with his attitude of “please fuck my daughters and spare the rest.” Somehow their actions were in no way reflective of his character as a father.

Also we ignore the part where he tried to give them away to be raped by an entire town.
