Haven't really traditional/conservative people said for years that a woman's place is at home, not at work? Not sure who she thinks would feel pressured by this move, but I don't think she has it right.

If shitlib women had just left videogames alone they would still have abortion.

The words everyone, on all sides, fear the most: "Sargon was right".

Unpopular opinion: gay marriage was a mistake. "Marriage" is undeniably a word deeply rooted in religious practice. What should have happened, is the state create a new term, completely a-religious in nature, that replaced "marriage" in all legal context, and then also give gay couples the right to participate in this completely recreated legal institution (let's call it civil union). And reserve the word "married" for only religious practices. Also apply this retroactively, so that ultimately, everyone who was previously legally married was now in a "civil union" and people who also performed a religious ceremony were also "married", as defined by their religion.

This way you accomplish more separation of church and state (something that Atheists usually flaunt, but somehow we missed on how the state encroached on this religious institution), but you also get to give the same rights to gay couples that you give to straight couples, while not offending people's religious beliefs.

There so much weird stuff in that post that I simply can't wrap my mind around, and I'm not even anti-abortion.
Like: "people are going to die". I'm assuming that would be women, but how exactly are women dying by not getting abortions?! I'm trying my very best, but I don't see a scenario where this would be the direct result. Let's say there's a woman who's extremely poor, and because of the pregnancy she can't handle the economic burden and ends up homeless. But even then, homeless women don't have it nearly as bad as homeless men, and you can't tell me there's no one that wouldn't take pity on her and help her out in a homeless shelter or something. Yeah, it can get pretty dark (and it's one of the reasons I don't favor blanket abortion bans) but there's no reasonable chance a woman will simply die.

Or: "children are gonna be abandoned, abused, neglected". I'm sorry, but in no way can you convince that any of those are absolutely, positively, 100%, all the time worse than not being allowed to be born at all. The only one of those that is really bad is the abused part, but even then, if later in life that person has some good counseling and help, they can be a perfectly normal person and a contributing member of society. As for "abandoned"? Big deal. Adoption exists for a reason. Plenty of perfectly happy adopted children out there. Neglected? So is everyone else in modern society, go cry me a river.
As for the final one "children are gonna be [...] killed". I'm sorry, what?! You want to prevent children being killed by killing children? Ok fetuses, but if you're throwing out something that absurd, I might as well point the absurd obvious.

We need to make a Troll of the Year award, and give it to Dankula.

I keep laughing at this, and I'm not even sure why.

Also, this is extremely dangerous to our democracy.

@alyx like bruh i have tattoos and i still respect this viewpoint. i don't give a FUCK if people don't want to associate with me because i have some video game shit on my arms.

if dumb broads "accidentally" get pregnant and then get an abortion, who is to say i have to like or respect them? because "slay queen?" it's pretty disgusting to me that abortion is being touted as empowering or some shit.

It's not a glamorous job, but someone has to make the cum memes.

I love how some of these pictures are basically untouched. Like the AI thought he looked enough like a robot as is, and just redrew the same image.
