I was looking at seagull stickers for my instagram story and I came across seagulls saying supportive things like “You matter! <3” and that’s the first time I’ve gone “He would not fucking say that” over an animal. These birds are fueled by spite. They would yell slurs if they could. Not even the right ones. A seagull would call an old lady a faggot they don’t care
“the CEO doesnt want to run that kind of website” Excuse, shouldnt have bought the ‘go nuts show nuts whatever’ website if thats the case. APPEAL DENIED
“we have to follow the TOS of the appstores we’re hosted on” Excuse item one, no you dont, item two, you have since those days implimented infrastructure that would allow pornography and sex work on this platform Without violating TOS of any applicable app store. APPEAL DENIED
“we own the site we get to make the rules” Incorrect, this site has only ever made profit when the users willed it. we collectively own the site as a hive mind and no legal change in ownership will change that. APPEAL DENIED
“we have to keep this website safe for the children who use it” Argument based on fallacybanning pornography and sex workers does not prevent pornography and sex work from occuring on the site, it only forces aforementioned users to hide and avoid labling their content appropriately, which REDUCES the safety for children and sex workers alike instead of increasing it, this has been shown to the point that making this argument at all is tantamount to admiting fascist intent APPEAL DENIED

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
You know Elon probably saw this and was super mad he still can’t fire Halli.
I’ve already had one person in the notes claim dropping the bombs was the “only option” to end the war.
No.
Shaun has a wonderful breakdown of all the nuances surrounding the Japanese surrender.
If you do not have 2 hours to spare (or you can’t watch it at 2x speed), I will give you some bullet points.
Several American leaders of the time felt the bombs provided no assistance in ending the war.
Japan was already defeated. They wanted to surrender but were stubborn and wanted conditions.
Their only concern was their god-like emperor stay in power and not be executed.
That was their concern before the bombs. That was their concern after the bombs. Nothing changed in their minds.
They didn’t actually care that the bombs killed people. It took them several days to even have a meeting after the first bomb dropped.
The idea that dropping the bomb would save millions of casualties was invented *after* the bomb was dropped and was pulled out of someone’s ass to cover said ass.
There was never going to be an invasion.
People think we dropped the bombs and the Japanese leadership was like, “Oh shit! We give up!”
But in reality, we dropped the first bomb and they were like, “I’m busy tomorrow, can we have the bomb meeting on Thursday?”
We dropped the bombs to show the world we had the bombs.
Japan was a convenient and timely excuse to that end.
my roommate who is like. the most straight laced cis dude ever. just came into the living room and said “the masculine urge to get pregnant.” then stood there for a second before leaving silently.
this is possibly the funniest terf take i’ve ever seen. trans people, hate to tell you this but buying clothes is actually capitalist and you should stop /j.
Clothing didn’t exist before capitalism
Only Real Men can be anticapitalist. Real Women need capitalism for the makeup and clothing they require to be a Real Woman, and therefore can’t fight the system
