I remember a congregation out where I live, in Yankeestan, had astened a crude structure onto their truckbed and they called it their mobile chapel. They’d drive out to agriculture zones and try to preach to migrants against catholicism.

Studio execs: “Perfection.”
Protestant/Unionist
That is mainly the root of it. The Catholic-Protestant divide is mirrored as the Republican-Unionist divide. Even if the religion could be separated the political implication remained.
Which made things especially tough for the Protestants in the republic and all the Catholics in the union.
They could easily just be a Groyper. Groypers will do hasbara for the lulz, and they are the primary group other than Zionists so dedicated to hating on Hasan.
He is a great litmus test. Someone who has a fundamental problem with Hasan is reliably someone who who is not on the left, or at least susceptible to wrecking or infighting.
Quite frankly a tool like that is incredibly empowering for leftwing organization.
Conservatism can easily be a form of liberalism, and can even be considered progressive. It sounds contradictory but conservatism of progressive traditions, customs, and values is a component of many liberal societies. That’s your Teddy Roosevelts, the Southern New Deal Democrats, and the Blue Dog coalition.
there is no necessary overlap afaik.
As long as it is recognized that overlap isn’t a necessity, I think this is fine. The important thing to remember is that none of these terms are wholly exclusive to each other. Discussion just needs to agree to the context of used terms.
Plenty of (big C) Conservatives want to conserve the social institutions of racial segregation or other regressive concepts. But you can also legitimately say Xi Xinping is a conservative in the context of the PRC. So there’s a wide field for the context of the terms to get stretched around and (mis)used and (mis)interpreted.
Liberalism too. It is a concept that has existed and been applied to right wing monarchies and left wing republics. The entire French Revolution is exemplary in how these terms have no strict limit and so a baseline of agreed context is what is necessary.
Sure. Nothing is really stopping anyone from doing that when judging a content creator. If you’re deep into wondering why he’s got so many defenders and attackers online though: he’s political. People get wrapped up in that.
There’s not a lesser of two evils argument there, so it makes sense it’d be unconvincing.
This is more of a ‘judge him by his enemies’ type thing.
This is barely Sabra hummus.
As far as political streamers with fanbases under 30, he’s one of the few alternatives to the manosphere types and groypers. People can have a kneejerk reaction to defend someone those groups routinely target.
People tend to overdemonize feminists and what feminism stands for. This comic is making fun of that by portraying an absurdist scenario where a perfectly normal feminine practice: getting a training bra, is beset by moon-dwelling feminists who seek to destroy the earth.
Instead of, well, recognizing and demanding equality. The original straw man antifeminists make is to deviate from the idea that feminism is about equality. That’s probably the critical foundation this comic needs to make sense as that’s what it is poking fun at.
The joke is that it’s ‘Straw feminist’ as the title, as in ‘straw man fallacy’. The portrayal of the moon-dwelling earth-destroying feminist is the hyperbolic parody of straw man arguments against feminism.
Turbox Tax worked hard to get AI some revenue.
If you didn’t do the multi-step downgrade of your service (have to downgrade two or three times to get to the free version) then you might’ve counted. The AI doesn’t do anything, but it starts as a way to justify charging you like $140. It’ll default you paying for it even if its unused.
Well the Christianity was just a layer painted on top. Peel it back and it was all there, just barely under the surface.
So you know our creepy uncle who runs a corner store? Has he met a customer for you!
Junji Ito is a gift to us all.
He’s resting like he’s paid rent.
Yep. Back around 2013 when the national credit rating slid down it became legal/not prohibited to do so after a lawsuit.
Eh, maybe. Thanks for providing the context for the assumption. I am not sure that makes them the same user, but it is shit if that’s support for whatever Beep is trying to do. It ain’t worth carrying water for anyone here, at any rate.
For the people I was referencing it was more racial association with people from South and Central America being predominantly Catholic.
