Stupidest idea I've ever heard. Nothing but empty carbs, and overpriced to boot.

Tight on cash? Buy rice and beans in bulk, cheap food and halfway decent nutrition compared to so much crap out there. Also whole chickens (fryers), bake them in the oven.

Of course they are. Trap women in abusive marriages. Then if they get their national ban on all birth control, men will force themselves on their wives, and they'll have no choice but to become pregnant. The only way out for them will be suicide -- and then the religious assholes will talk to the rest about how that woman will spend eternity in Hell because she killed herself. Meanwhile religious assholes will indoctrinate subsequent generations of girls into believing that """Gods plan""" for them is to get married, have babies, and serve their husbands, and that only sinful selfish women have educations and careers.

In my younger days I've seen women have their lives destroyed by one church or another, either stifling their minds, or forcing them to stay in abusive marriages.

Fuck all religion, it ruins everything every single time.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

We don't have """conservatives""" anymore, all we have is the Fascist Pig Party. Anti-democracy, anti-American, racist, sexist, and taking their orders from Moscow. THAT is what we're fighting against.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

The 'Fascist Pig Party'.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Basically they want to drag the country backwards about 200 years socio-politically, to a time where only white men had any rights at all, and women and children were more-or-less considered 'property'.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

The 'Internet leftist' in this 'comic' is the kind of person that needs to be dropped into an oubliette.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Well well well, color me surprised!

Remember kids: Denial ain't just a river in Egypt

Cognitive_Dissident ,

You're really remarkably stupid, aren't you?

Cognitive_Dissident ,

IDGAF about religion, I think it ruins everything and wish it would all just go away, disappear from the world and human minds entirely, but sure, you can """believe""" whatever you want so long as you're not pushing it on me, making my life difficult (or impossible) because I don't """believe""" what you """believe""", make war on/kill people because they """believe""" something different, or try to run my countrys government according to your """beliefs""". Beyond that you can go """worship""" the fucking Tooth Fairy for all I care, just do it quietly, privately, and leave me and everyone who has no interest in it OUT OF IT, otherwise we will definitely have a problem. I will reserve the right to shake my head sadly, roll my eyes, and think what fools you are for doing it, but hey, if it makes you happy.

Also while I'm at it: fuck Hamas, fuck the Israeli government and military, drag all the above into the International Criminal Court and prosecute their asses for all the evil fucked-up shit they've all done. Then give Israel a whole new government, and give the Palestinians their own internationally recognized country.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Bullshit.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

They already have their own damn country, they don't need to be exterminating Palestinians so they can have more land.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

100% true. If every American eligible to vote got out and voted, the Fascist Pig Party (Republicans) would become a third party.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

No """third party candidate""" will ever be President, and anyone who tries to convince people to vote for a third party candidate is more likely than not a Fascist Pig Party operative trying to water down the voting pool so Trump and the Fascist Pigs can get elected.

Are you part of the Fascist Pig Party?

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Biden and Trump are about the same age, but Biden is clearly in better shape both mentally and physically than Trump, and furthermore doesn't run off at the mouth with irrelevant nonsense in public.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Uh huh. The military literally indoctrinates you, breaks down and destroys who you are and rebuilds you the way they want you to be, which does not include critical thinking skills or thinking for yourself at all, just 'following orders' and 'conforming'. What they want here is clear: make young people into obedient robots who don't question authority at all. They want to put religion in public schools, too, which also would discourage thinking for yourself and questioning things ("""you have to have FAITH!"""). The end result? An entire generation of obedient robots.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

The fascist pigs who create the inequality are throwing hissy-fits over so-called """wokeness""" because they don't want 'equality', they want supremacy.

Here's why they're braindead, though: if they got their way, and everyone who wasn't lilly-white was either exiled, enslaved, or killed, eventually they'd start sniping on each other for not being """white enough""", until there was just two of them left, living as far apart as possible, armed to the teeth, constantly plotting how they were going to eliminate that """impure mongrel""" living at the other end of the country.

All this """white supremacy""" bullshit is a mental illness.

Trump vows to ‘drill, baby, drill’ despite rally attendees wilting in extreme heat | Supporters hospitalized following rallies in Las Vegas and Phoenix, where temperatures have broken records ( www.theguardian.com )

I'll note that heat stroke victims in Phoenix are more likely to survive this year than in the past due to ambulances stocking body bags full of ice.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

So far as a motherfucking criminal like Trump is concerned, we 99% are worthless peasants and we can all just die, so long as the 1% get their billions and live in comfort and safety.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Kick their asses out, ALL OF THEM.

This country doesn't want or need their fake-ass """god""" or their fake-ass religious bullshit.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

I think Biden has done a pretty good job overall, but yeah, it's not like we have another choice. Trump will destroy this country.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Putin is a piece of shit human being who needs to """accidentally""" fall out a high window or """accidentally""" get some polonium in his food. He's already depopulating Russia of young men for this illegal and immoral invasion of a peaceful democratic sovereign country, and now that they're fresh out of young men, they're press-ganging old men and anyone else who can hold a rusty rifle and get their ass shot off in Ukraine. Wouldn't put it past this motherfucker to start sending old ladies and disabled people over there too.

Here's the thing, though: Putin knows damned well that if he fails to take Ukraine, the Oligarchs will have him killed, guaranteed. But here's the other thing about that: he's going to fail, so he's dead one way or the other.

Putin should just flee Russia, get plastic surgery to change his appearance, and go live in some remote wilderness for the rest of his unnatural life, and Russia should GTFO of Ukraine now.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Second plot twist: I hear many of them just surrender the first chance they get

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Putin’s getting his ass kicked.

Yep.

If we could somehow manage to cut off material support of Russia coming from China and North Korea, I think it'd all fall apart.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

I'll forward your request to my CIA sources, look for their analysis in your inbox.

No right wing wave in Finland as Left Alliance take record result in EU elections ( yle.fi )

Finland's results in the European election bucked a continent-wide trend of rising support for parties on the outer fringe of right-wing politics, with the Left Alliance and the National Coalition winning big at the expense of the nationalist Finns Party....

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Good.

I got maybe another 20 or so years of life left to me, I really don't want to see my world turn into some fascist authoritarian hell-scape where everything is ruled from Moscow or Beijing. So please, fellow homosapiens: don't let that happen, mmkay?

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Nice try, FBI.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

But my dude, red LEDs are old and busted, don't you want to be one of the cool kids and have the new hotness that is blue and white LEDs in everything? You don't want to fall behind, do you? What will the neighbors and your peer group think? /s

Cognitive_Dissident ,

I got tired of being banned by reddit. The last time I was there for over a year before some shithead mod wrecked it for me. Not going back, fuck reddit.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

How do we fix this?

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Talks about some search engine no one has heard of before that sounds Chinese or something

Yeah, nyah I think I'll stick with DuckDuckGo, which has never failed to find me what I was searching for if it exists on the Internet, and oh by the way costs me nothing to use.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Vote with your mouse-clicks and don't use Google. Enough people leave they'll either change or become irrelevant like so many before them.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

LOL Donald Trump is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Russia Federation, and Milania is his 'handler' posing as his 'wife'. Wouldn't at all be surprised if his kids are all born-and-raised sleeper agents too, and that he sexually abused his daughter.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

The goverment and military of Israel have become just like the Nazis of World War 2 and seek to completely erase the Palestinian people and take their land. They have become everything they claim to hate.

Hamas is no better. They use the people they claim to be fighting for as human shields and have therefore participated in the mass slaughter of Palestinians.

The only people in this brutal conflict that are innocent are the non-combatants on both sides --and even then, only the non-combatants who oppose the war and oppose genocide.

The Israeli government and military deserve to be removed and tried in the International Court. Same goes for Hamas. Gaza deserves to be officially recognized as a sovereign nation, and Israel deserves to be forced to pay reparations to the Palestinians both for their loss of life and for the damage to their cities.

Furthermore when all is said and done I think that the U.S. should only continue being an ally of Israel if and when everyone in Israel responsible for the war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza are arrested and tried, and a new government formed that likewise recognizes Gaza as a sovereign nation. Otherwise Israel can just try hacking it on their own, because enough is enough.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

If you're actually defending the terrorist organization known as Hamas, then you can get fucked, they're just as bad as the Israeli government and military and likewise deserve to be destroyed. So does Hezbolah and all the other Islamic terror groups wherever they are.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

I am of a mind that it doesn't matter whether it might or might not happen, we need to talk about how it needs to happen, because enough people start saying that, maybe it does happen. Being silent never accomplished anything.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Fuck you, asshole, I'm no gods-be-damned motherfucking Nazi, but you sound to me like YOU are the Nazi here, defending a government and military that is systematically wiping out an entire population.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

I was hearing about this on NPR this morning. If he sells off everything he owns it'll still be only a tiny fraction of the $1B judgement against him, and the plaintiffs will have the right to hound him for the rest of his life for the rest of it. So even if he ended up washing dishes or digging ditches for a living, they'd still have the right to garnish his wages to pay off the settlement. The sonofabitch will never have anything other than the bare necessities again, ever, which is how it should be.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

They're already half a step away from that in Texas, because Abbott is a gigantic piss baby and Cruz is a huge pussy and a jackass. Really, the Fascist Pig Party-led Texas legislature is only a step away from being Florida, and we all know what a shithole Florida is now.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

I don't 'do' smartphones at all, I think they're an expensive trap -- but if you have an iPhone and it gets stolen, can't you call up Apple and have them brick it, so it can't be used at all anymore? I'd think that would be what you'd ultimately have to do if you can't get it back.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Uh huh. This is just like women legislators who support draconian abortion laws being shocked, shocked, I tell you, when they discover that those laws apply to them and their daughters as well. As much as I don't want to see any women suffer injuries or die due to these bullshit abortion laws in some states, I also must admit I want to see some high-profile women politicians who did support those laws directly affected by them in highly negative ways, so they understand how utterly stupid they've been.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

LOL I've avoided using anything from Google for a long time now just on general priciples.

Trump is a fossil living in a nation that has progressively more fossils every year, and those fossils, like the archaeological kind, are very often full of stone, and like stone, inflexible, brittle, prone to shattering rather than being changed -- and if they manage to endure, they won't change.

I'm gen-x; I, at least, try to remain flexible, but my mind is still functional, and at a level of intelligence that is still far above the average, therefore I do not try to drag the world backwards just so I can be """comfortable""". Will I fight against actual injustice? Hell, yes. But what these fossils, and their brain-dead cult followers want, is to drag the world backwards at least 100 years -- if not 200 years, or a thousand years. They want a new Dark Age, where real facts and real truth are inconvenient, and the purveyors of such are scoffed at, disregarded, ostracized, attacked, arrested, jailed -- and perhaps just killed outright for daring to contradict whatever dictator and his cronies are in power at the time.

To anyone who reads this who disagrees, who thinks that these fossils should be the ones in power, I say this to you now: take a good, hard look at the actual 'freedoms' and 'rights' you have in these United States, and what having these things has done for you, then take a good hard look at what these reptiles want to do to your United States, and ask yourselves: is this really the best direction for us to go? It's not about """sticking it to the liberals"""; choosing the leaders of your country should not be about taking revenge on half the population, it should be about what's best for everyone, not just """your people""". Anyone who cannot, or will not understand that has their priorities all screwed up.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

You could grab his orange head and shove it straight into that video and he'd just double-down on his insistence that he did nothing wrong, the trial was all politically motivated and therefore invalid, and that the conviction is fake.
It's like trying to argue with a Flat Earther or Moon Landing Denier, or religious nutjobs, real truth and real facts are meaningless.

FFS drop Trump in an oubliette and be done with it.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

..what the actual fuck?
Is this some sort of extreme sarcasm, that even a sarcastic bastard like me can't understand?

Cognitive_Dissident ,

So far as I'm concerned Netanyahu and his government are as bad as the German Nazis of World War 2 who tried to exterminate them. They're now doing the same things to the Palestinians, while simultaneously swearing up and down that they're not doing that, but really, who believes them anymore?

Additionally Netanyahu is a criminal in his own country and is desperately clinging to power so he doesn't go to prison.

The real victims here are all the non-combatants on both sides, Palestinian and Israeli both. Hamas are animals who use the people they claim to fight for as human shields, and the Israeli government and military are genocidal assholes who just want to exterminate the Palestinians once and for all and take their land. The best thing that could happen here is that Hamas ceases to exist, Netanyahu, his government, and the elements of their military who are okay with killing Palestinian civilians all go away, and Palestine is declared a free and sovereign country, and this shit never happens again.

Cognitive_Dissident ,

Well, guess I'm not a """real progressive""" then, because I hate fascist pigs like the current Republican Party, I hate men who are abusive to women, I hate human traffickers, and a whole slew of other categories of people who do things that make them deserving of hatred.

I also have a mild hatred of gatekeepers. So how about we don't be like that, mmkay?
