IOSM have loved Churchill quotes for my whole life. Dude was a piece of poo poo. "Better than Hitler" wow what an accomplishment.
The latest Call of Duty has a bunch of pithy war quotes from real people and fictional characters during the "you died" reloads when playing through the campaign, and I don't think that's new. Entirely possible that some wires crossed there. Plus, it's funnier that way.

I mean Elric books are rad and all, but maybe don't model your life after the dude in the thrall of an evil soul sucking sword*

*I'm only two volumes into the collected elric works (they are out of print and expensive so I try to only sccop them up when I find them on the cheap) so don't at me being like "well actually the sword is an agent of order as opposed to chaos" or whatever

It's at least as old as the original Modern Warfare series, and probably older.

Yeah it's this, I thought that specific quote was a flavor quote in a rule book but the rule book was probably quoting the novel.
Idk which is funnier, that it herman Cain quoting Mewtwo in a speech.

Given that 78 % female teachers is apparently equal to 80 % "feminine influence" at school... definitely the latter.

(The other 2 % are from male teachers raised by single mothers, clearly)

So what she's saying is men should be confined to the private sphere while women might as well go out into the public, since they have no beneficial effects when they raise children? Very interesting

Yea I'm not sure what the endgame to that argument is because these people also do the 'no see it's not misogyny I'm saying women are just GOOD at raising kids and all so they're BEST to stay home and do that while I work, it's PRAISE' thing so...actually it's men who belong in the kitchen if this obviously fake number is real and being raised by one man is as good as being raised by a nuclear family?

I feel like the whole "single mothers" scare statistics are just this big vile stew of misogyny, and racism. I've also heard it thrown around in regards to opposition to same sex adoption.

It also seems like it's looking at the problem backwards-who's to say the same problems that increase the likelihood of being criminals ALSO increase the likelihood of being a single parent?

I’m not super versed in the history of Andrew Tate, didn’t he already leave Romania and have his pad raided, and that’s why he was in America doing the anti-“grooming” circuit? Has there ever been a self-own as big as this?
