    If you use Tumblr to get pictures of handsome working men / military men / etc, you see a lot of this crap coming from the same accounts sharing hot dudes. Gay men decrying “wokeism” and hating on trans people and immigrants.

    Being gay unfortunately does not correllate with intelligence.

      Yeah no kidding, otherwise Log Cabin Republicans wouldn’t exist. I mean why else would an LGBT+ person vote Republican unless they’re just plain stupid?

          A “come and take it” bumper sticker next to one of those all religions “coexist” bumper stickers. A Christian fish and a pentagram.

            Lol perfect. This is making me think of those fridge magnets you can rearrange to say different things, but for cars.

            There’s no reason Christianity can’t be compatible with any other religion, including pagan. And really no reason Judaism can’t, either, considering yhwh is a sumarían war god.

            I recently accompanied a neighbor to a neighborhood event at a local church. It was kind of neat because when a lady kept mentioning “the Lord” my mind kept dubbing in “Baal.”

            “What has been seen can not be unseen,” apparently including in the mind’s eye. Also, read as much of the Ethiopian Bible as you can, I can totally see a really chill RPG based on it.

              We look through the world through windows on which have been drawn grids (concepts). Different philosophies use different grids. A culture is a group of people with rather similar grids. Through a window we view chaos, and relate it to the points on our grid, and thereby understand it. The ORDER is in the GRID. That is the Aneristic Principle.

              Western philosophy is traditionally concerned with contrasting one grid with another grid, and amending grids in hopes of finding a perfect one that will account for all reality and will, hence, (say unenlightened westerners) be True. This is illusory; it is what we Erisians call the ANERISTIC ILLUSION. Some grids can be more useful than others, some more beautiful than others, some more pleasant than others, etc., but none can be more True than any other.

    I have someone near my home who flies those exact same flags, so it made me think. My state bled for the Union, so it’s not a “southern pride” flag.

    I came to the conclusion American Pride, Gay Pride, And White Pride aren’t exclusive XD

    You can be love America, be gay, and hate minorities all at the same time, what a country
