  • A lot of factories, particularly in Florida, are open air because they don’t want to pay for air conditioning, which just makes the situation worse.

    Of course that’s not the only issue with factory work. Between “mandatory overtime” that doesn’t get announced until minutes before the end of your 15 hour shift and getting written up even with a doctor’s note… Or even paying for medical insurance and simply not being able to use it… Very few people want to work in a factory setting. The ones that do have to just to survive.

    It’s modern day slavery, they just don’t beat you anymore.




  • It’s sadly going to fall on deaf ears so long as our government, pushed by the Christians, continues to fellate Israel so they can get a “reward” when they die.

    That’s what this boils down to, folks. The Christians dictate foreign policy so they can continue to feel high and mighty about themselves. This isn’t about lives on either side of the situation; it has been and will continue to be about Christians thinking this benefits them directly. And it doesn’t matter how many women and kids die, so far as they are concerned. This is all about them.

    They’ve been telling us who they are for 2000 years. It’s time to believe them and adjust ourselves accordingly. Similar to disregarding what any other bigot says. They shouldn’t be allowed to hold office considering they are commanded in their Bible to go against “earthly” things. A slave cannot serve two masters and they will (and have) sold this Country to benefit themselves.

    If Trump wins in November, we need to get used to the idea of a theocracy in our lifetimes.


  • Those percentages are meaningless. If I walk into a restaurant and see a guy at a table with 9 Nazis, I see a table with 10 Nazis.

    Christianity has 2 groups left; the people who are fascist motherfuckers and the people that condone fascist motherfuckers because they get what they want out of it. That’s 99% of the South. That other 1% are people who need to leave.

    I don’t have any inclination whatsoever to engage with the Christians. None. They want to start shit, I’ll be glad to finish it with a fucking smile on my face, but I’m not into fighting the American Al-Qaeda alone and I damn sure don’t have any reason to live amongst them in the meantime because you think I have a duty to do so.


  • The fuck are you even taking to me for, then? Hit the bricks. Your opinion is diminishing in value with every reply. I don’t have the time to sit and argue with an SJW with a shitty attitude who has done nothing but strawman me to death with hypotheticals.

    Someone else responded to my initial comment with something about nukes, do you, for some reason, think that was me? I’ve not “condemned” anybody. I think you’ve got me fucked up with somebody else, so take that delightful attitude of yours and direct the vitriol elsewhere.

    And, to be very clear, the South is 99% Christian nationalists, particularly in the Bible belt. Zero percent of them are worth saving. None.


  • And it isn’t your job to defend the shittiest people on the planet, who by the way want you dead just as much as they do me. The difference is you want to defend the South.

    This is an abusive relationship; the first time I get beat is the other person’s fault. Every time after that is mine. I’m simply choosing to leave, and you want to victim shame. Bravo.

    I got jumped in Daytona Beach in 2021. Three dudes in a pickup truck hopped out and beat the fuck out of me because I was wearing a pride bracelet. I was just able to recall enough of the truck to identify it, but because I didn’t get the tag, they never caught the guys. The cops refused to treat it as a hate crime.

    I left, even though I couldn’t afford to do so. So your description of people not being able to leave doesn’t pass the smell test.

    Are there places in the North where I won’t be safe? Of course. I’m not going to Boston. But I’m leaving the South because of the aforementioned abusive relationship analogy.

    Again, I’m in no way obligated to get lynched because other people decide to stay. And believe you me, staying in a place full of people who jerk it at night thinking about killing the LGBTQ is a choice.


  • No, I’m not “basically” saying that, but nice strawman attempt.

    I have no interest in being a white knight. I’m fucking leaving. I don’t have any obligation to financially cover people who can’t leave; they have to make that decision.

    What I’m saying is that the rest of the people here, the ones actively calling for the deaths of the LGBTQ+ are as useful as taste buds on an asshole.

    I will not waste another breath on trying to convince them that they’re horrible people. Not even within my own family. When the South inevitably attempts a second civil war, I’ll help my LGBTQ+ brothers and sisters should they get to where I am. But they have to find the impetus to do so.




  • I’m not staying here. I’ve been planning my exit from this shit hole and the people here for a few months. I’m a gay man who has simply had enough.

    There’s no saving these people. The good ones are leaving, the rest are some of the worst people in the country; they either are dismissive of what’s going on or indifferent.

    Why would I waste my time voting here when my vote literally means nothing? This is a traitor enclave.

    These people don’t give a shit about anyone who doesn’t go to their church, which is very denomination exclusive. You can’t make them be civilized.




  • Because Israel has Christians all over the world giving them money, hand over fist, over myth and superstition.

    The Christians think that supporting Israel will get them into “heaven” and the Israeli government has no issue taking that free money so long as no one tells the Christians that the Jews don’t believe their Messiah has returned yet.

    So what you have are Christians who all claim to be “pro-life” that are fully willing to allow actual genocide so they can get a “reward” for it when they die.

    Nevermind the pesky details of a goddamn thing Jesus allegedly said about murder or treating the foreigner well. And let’s not mince words here; the only source that says the Hebrews were from that part of the world is the Torah/Old Testament. They murdered the inhabitants once, they’ll do it again. But this time they have funding from Western countries that have grown adults pretending that fairy tales are real. The present day nation of Israel was created in 1948 by people who didn’t have the right to give someone else’s country away, but that’s what was done, and now Israel are the Nazis millions of good men died to protect them from.
