i'm a Cis Straight White male and proud of it

This does look terrible for them, since given the facts the stories of the defendants and police are obviously not true. They stopped to handcuff a man who was bleeding to death and undoubtedly saying that he was bleeding to death and leaving a trail of blood behind him. His attacker stabbed him four times in "self-defense" and then chased him down over a fence in "self-defense" and his mom hid the murder weapon in "self-defense" and was really sad that it happened which is why he fled and didn't tell anyone he did it.

Every time, these people, it's a screenshot of a tweet of a snippet from an article and everyone jerks off about how much it proves their particular kind of crazy to be true fantasising about what they assume that the article would say. And then you read the article and it isn't that.

they performed first aid on him after they arrested him. they arrested him first. he was bleeding the fuck out and, undoubtedly, screaming about how he had been stabbed, and they arrested him first, and then after arresting him, performed first aid, which did not succeed. maybe he was dead either way. but stopping to arrest him before performing first aid certainly did not help.

They arrested him, then waited until he passed out to start performing first aid.

Let’s play the biggest game of kick the can on the internet.

The state of New Jersey already recognized antifa as a domestic threat back in 2017.

So anyway, antifa are literally designated as domestic terrorists and the state of New Jersey has an obligation to arrest and prosecute them as such. Every time there’s any kind of antifa activity things get set on fire, vandalism, and violence are guaranteed.

And when there’s real violence they not only endorse it but celebrate it, as long as they approve of who the victims are.

She put her hand up at one point and moved someone back from her personal space, barely a push not even close to a shove, then this asshole comes up and punches her in the back.

Half the quote tweets on this tweet are just dragging her ass for saying this. Love to see it.

Yes it is her choice. Yes, she has the full right to do it but that doesn't mean it is consequence free for every party involved.

who made this social media post? does that affect the way people interact with its contents?

are characters in comics real people with feelings?

what do you think motivated the poster to create this comic? were they depicting a real life scenario, or could there be some alternative agenda here? could this affect the way people react to this post?

2. No. Because its a fucking comic. You understand how representation works right?

3. It could be a real life experience dramatized in comic book form. Or it could be merely representative but if you think that there isn't someone who wanted to be a father upon hearing that their partner, spouse or etc was pregnant then, you are simply delusional. What is depicted here does happen.

4. Exactly what it does. Its rhetotic. It's meant to convince on the basis of sympathy.

And this is why I don't like most of you. You cannot look at abortion as abortion you have to feel around it rather than directly address the philosophical position.

1. You check your self socially first.

2. You completely deconceptualize and deconstruct the reality out of it. Which is to engage a blank out.

3. You imply motives which after you have destroyed what you have heard and seen only who you are talking to, assume malice.

4. You attack the very act of which all of us engage in.

This is epistemological failure on your part.

And my major point is that abortion is not good in itself. It's a painful choice in defense of one's life and values which are and should be the center of your life. You guys need things to be 0 harm to everyone with every choice. The harm reduction ethics you practice is a race to the bottom.

People like Hater, Nurse, and even Violet to a certain extent are why the bulk of the Pro life crowd find people who are "Pro Choice" to be evil. Not just ill intentioned.

So to start with Violet's point. As a point of speech we normally saying, "Expecting Mother" or "Expecting Father" as a turn of speech. Which would be to imply that motherhood or fatherhood do not start until after birth. That's honestly a dumb take. Life starts at conception. From that point on, you are parents. You might not get to experience all the joys of seeing your kid in person, but you do go through a lot to make sure the kid is delivered safe, and to be sure that you both prepare yourself to personally take care of another human once it breaths it's first outside the womb. Calling a mother not a mother prior to birth is kinda stupid if you look at everything mothers go through prior to birth. Same with fathers. I'll consider this not evil but misguided.

As for Hater and Nurse.....There's not much I have to say here. They are the same anti natalist scum that most of the pro abort klan are. Margaret Sanger would be proud of them.

But ignoring the racist bitch for a moment, let's look at this objectively. It takes two to make a child. Not just one. The reason we've seen a stark move away from, "Life starts at conception" is because of the pro abortion crowd that likes to manipulate language to say, "It's a literal Parasite", or, "It's just a clump of cells". Except it's not. It's a child in its earliest development stages.

And can I also point out that he’s not actually mourning a dead child here? That cute toddler he’s imagining never existed. He’s mourning the IDEA of a child. Normally, I’d still be sympathetic- we all have moments when we wonder ‘what if’.

But.

If my experience with Every Man I’ve Ever Met has taught me anything, it’s that most men’s “idea” parenting looks like this: He plays with the kid, does all the fun things with the kid, the kid worships him, everyone tells him how his kid is “just like him” and how he’s a fantastic father. His legacy (whatever that even means) is secure.

Men never seem to think about the constant effort that goes into keeping kids fed, clothed, safe, bathed, cleaned up after, dropped off on time at school/ doctors’ appointments/sports/tutoring/music lessons/ect. To say nothing of the emotional labor that goes into turning kids into an independent, emotionally stable adults.

Because, somewhere deep down, they know they don’t HAVE to. That’s women’s work. If his “girlboss feminist” wife did end up giving birth, the unwritten societal expectation would be that SHE quit her job to raise their son.

This man is not grieving his dead child. The child never existed- didn’t live, didn’t breathe, didn’t cry or throw a tantrum or dirty a diaper or cover a shirt in spit-up. It never had thoughts and feelings of its own. It. Didn’t. Exist.

What he’s most likely mourning is the ‘Leave it to Beaver’ fantasy that’s been ingrained in us all by 1950s TV adds- the ones that show cute children and spotless kitchens, but not the long hours of unpaid, invisible labor that sustains them.

I don't know how to tell you this, but sometimes people lie or change their minds about what they want.

You're making a very baseless assumption about what this dude knew when he married her.

>(Given she’s wearing a dress suit, holding a briefcase, and telling him to “get over it”, I’m assuming we’re supposed to interpret her as the “girboss feminist who’s obsessed with her career” type.)

Or that's just what the AI spit out and the prompter didn't care to re-render.

>And can I also point out that he’s not actually mourning a dead child here? That cute toddler he’s imagining never existed. He’s mourning the IDEA of a child.

Yes, that's the whole point.

He's mourning the idea of a kid he never had, because his presumed wife got an abortion, presumably without consulting him or against his wishes. Maybe he did consent and now rejects it, idk.

I'm not sure why you're saying this like it's some big revelation when the very first "pro-life" post in this thread was someone explicitly saying the hypothetical dude lost the idea of a kid.

>If my experience with Every Man I’ve Ever Met has taught me anything, it’s that most men’s “idea” parenting looks like this: He plays with the kid, does all the fun things with the kid, the kid worships him, everyone tells him how his kid is “just like him” and how he’s a fantastic father.

Aaaand there's the naked sexism.Thanks for ripping the mask off.

>Because, somewhere deep down, they know they don’t HAVE to. That’s women’s work. If his “girlboss feminist” wife did end up giving birth, the unwritten societal expectation would be that SHE quit her job to raise their son.

20% of primary caregivers in America are stay at home dads.

"In 2025, 80 percent of employed mothers with children ages 6 to 17 worked full time compared with 77 percent of mothers with children under age 6." -BLS PDF

About 4 in 5 moms have full-time jobs.

So you're not just wrong, you're sexist against women AND men.

Not saying he wouldn't do well to pay his people more, but it's not like he's hoarding food or creating artificial scarcity to line his own pockets either.

That would be the governments who are members of OPEC doing that as one easy example.

That's not money.

>Every $10,000 elon has is a $10,000 someone else cannot have.

Except OP is about Elon's net worth, which is almost entire stocks. Not actual cash.

Stocks increase and decrease in value without affecting the money supply all the time.

>Having more money than he can spend is directly leading to someone else having less money than they need.

How? Define the mechanism.
