The stuff about Canadians being so nice is just a weird stereotype, but as stereotypes go, being accused of being "nice" is probably one of the more tolerable ones.

I'm curious tho, what's the general consensus on us swedes? According to Polanball we're a bunch of homosexual Muslims, but I dunno if that is representative of the general picture.

The stereotype I have of Swedes is that you are all blonde, naked, preturnaturally beautiful, and hanging around in saunas/hot tubs listening to ABBA after indulging in some wholesome wife swapping and everybody is friendly.

I must be a dumbass because I really don't get what I'm looking at, or what the caption means.

The rich kids, (who can afford uniforms, shoes, and to not have imaginary black cocks projected on them by creepy internet guys), get an education, whilst the poor kid, (with his dirty patched up clothes, bread basket and tears), doesnt. The message is that this is bad, and that education should be for everyone, even the filthy wussybag poors.

I would make fun of the spelling and grammar of those in the comments, but as suggested above, I reckon its because English is not their first language.

Do people think that you can sign up for "Obamacare" as a health plan and that if you're poor and black they'll give you a free Mercedes with each prescription of government marijuana and if you're rich and white you'll get sent to the death panels

Yes. There are people who think this.

My mom was so afraid of "Obamacare" and "Obamaphones" that, though she is unable to work, it took an ER visit to sign up for state health care. Like, she literally had to see how incredibly expensive a ripped bicep was to do anything about it. She was determined to pay for her regular clinic visits and meds with cash. I don't understand it.

Because Obama is black, I mean socialist, and that means something something death camp. Alternatively she could just be proud, as in "I aint going on no welfare, I'll pay my own way thanks."

This is a while back, and appropos of nothing, but it fits here and it is something I have been thinking far too much about.

Do any "Flat Earth" believing people live on the coast? Because if so, how in the name of everliving gently caress could they stay Flat Earthers? When a boat comes in to port, you see the top of it firs as it rides it's way over the horizon, the same way it dips out of view when it heads out to sea.

Simple, observable, and easily explainable proof that the earth is at the very least curved.

Sorry for that, but I don't know ant Flat Earthers, and am astounded that people could be that willingly and stubbornly anti-science as to argue against their own perceptions.

I watched a video where a Flat Earther explains that, because I hate myself. The argument is that nobody has actually observed that happening, and all videos of it happening are edited to skip the parts where they lower (or raise, if the ship is coming towards port) the camera.

This makes no sense. Nobody has actually observed that happening?? So nobody has ever watched a boat sail out to sea? Ever? Is he actually arguing this? Also, that when there is footage of it, what they do, is sink and raise the boats just to trick everyone on the shoreline.

This reeks of both 1) Nuh Uh! Not listening! Lalalalala, and 2) someone who doesn't realise there is a world outside of his bedroom.

So, yeah a Flat Earther.

Evry time I see a person with tons of dad/mom quotes, I assume that person totally defines themselves by their kids and just generally being a parent. They refuse to be fun and probably have nightmares about dressing their kid in a mismatched way. Everything they do leads to talking about their kids.

I have the opposite reaction. I imagine a neglected hungry child pulling on mummy/daddy's pant leg and being told "Shut up Kayleigh, Mummy/Daddy's got to post on facebook about how much they love you. I SAID SHUT UP YOU WHINGING LITTLE poo poo!"

This cartoon doesn't make the point it wants to.

The cis woman is talking to the pre-op transwoman, so they are friends. So transpeople are normal people after all
They are both adults. So transpeople aren't necessarily paedophiles.
The transwoman is raping nobody, nor even trying to. So transpeople aren't rapists.

In fact it makes the point that trans-activists are trying to make.

The transwoman is trying to have a piss in private, and she is being bothered/harassed by a rightwinger shouting their opinion at them.

I've seen a ton of his dialogue before and he ALWAYS talks like this. He'll occasionally post something normal, but he just launches into these impenetrable screeds at the slightest provocation. I think he wants to seem "sophisticated", so he speaks in the most pretentious manner possible.

Fair enough. But a follow up question: Do you reckon she read that insane pretentious wall of text, or did she just automatically like them?

I mean, is she as crazy as him, is she just humouring him, or does she buy into the more words = more smarter crap he is selling?

It's funny and sad watching them slowly go from their excuse of "Rapists will use this law to use the bathroom, it's not about transgendered people!" to "I aint want no lady man in the same bathroom as my daughter *spit*"

As I understand it is it already a bit of both.

The mindset goes: Transwoman = Sexually degenerate man. Sexually degenerate man = rapist. Therefore if a transgendered woman is in a Women's toilet, so is a rapist.

I honestly wonder what percent of MGTOW's are closeted right wing self-loathing gays who just need an excuse to think women are icky.

I truly think it wouldn't be that high. Gay guys don't HATE women the way that MGTOW and MRA types do.

Also closeted guys, especially the self-loathing ones, try really really hard to like women, and want people around them to know taht they like women only. And go around saying stuff like "God I love women, I really really like vaginas and want to be inside one all th etime. Really I do, women are ace and I totally love them and find them sexually attractive. Hooray for pussy!" loudly and publicly.

On an unrelated point, I think the MGTOW and MRA rage is as much about entitlement as it is about sexism. These guys aren't angry because they have been rejected, they are angry because women aren't lining up to throw "pussy" at them. Pussy they believe is the only inherent worth of a woman. Pussy they believe they are entitled to just because.

Sure people will always find a way to kill someone/themselves if they really want to, but we should be making it as difficult as possible, and not handing them things that are literally designed to make it as easy to kill multiple people at a time.

or 4) There are no jobs because of Obongo ruining the economy,

It all comes from their crazy interpretation of the book of Revelation, and the belief that those who carry the Mark of the Beast won't be allowed into heaven. Seriously.

With this "mark of the beast" thing, do these people think that if you get tricked into getting the mark, or have it put on them without their consent or understanding, that they still don't get to go to heaven?

For example, they get to the pearly gates, having lived a virtuous and godly life, (hating queers and blacks and abortions and all that good stuff), but God will look at their earthly bodies and go "Nup, I don't care how good you are, or how well you followed my rules. You got a mark on you, gently caress off to hell!"

Even the orthodox jewish belief of "you can't be buried in a Jewish Cemetary if you have a tattoo" has exceptions for those tattooed against their will.
