Have they tried removing more women's rights?

[–] Starkstruck@lemmy.world 40 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Maybe they should attack trans people more and ban even more books!

[–] grabyourmotherskeys@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Just ban all books. Checkmade [sic] nerds.

Isn’t this their goal? An uneducated populace is easier to control

Or how about blatantly ignoring the will of the people because sky daddy said so?

[–] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

Sky daddy never said these things because

  1. He doesn't exist
  2. All words "said" by sky daddy were written by racist and misogynist centuries after words were "said"
  3. Sky daddy's ultimate philosophy, is follow the golden rule.
