I feel bad for the children in this picture. Personally I think this is child abuse. Forcing politics / religion on children should be fucking illegal.

I feel bad for the children in this picture.

Absolutely. Me too.

Personally I think this is child abuse. Forcing politics / religion on children should be fucking illegal.

That's hard though. The kids obviously have fun, it's a game for them.

So what's the abuse? Them giving the finger? Come on... Them unknowingly giving a (wrong?) political message? Yeah, we all know where that would lead to.

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 44 points 1 year ago

To me the real abuse was putting it on social media without obscuring the children.

[–] madcaesar@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

The abuse is filling impressionable minds with lies and hate, when they are the most vulnerable. That shit will scar you for life.

Look, if you want to have ostentatious heteronormative sexuality in your own home, that's fine, just keep it away from my kids.

I'm more of the mind that government intervention without clear child abuse is overreach but that's just me.

If they made indoctrination illegal religion would disappear in two generations. So I support it.

Forty-seven states in the U.S. require the Pledge of Allegiance be recited in public schools.

FUSAK Biden.

At least a UK flag would make somewhat sense.

[–] MyOneEyedWilly@real.lemmy.fan 35 points 1 year ago

make sense

But then their target demographic wouldn’t be able to read it!

Oh! Look how happy those little girls are! Probably because they just learned that Stay-At-Home-Mom isn't the only acceptable career for a woman.

So this is how democracy dies. Not with a bang or a whimper but with a celebration by idiots in ridiculous clothes.

The essence of accelerationism. "Pull the plug already gahyuck!"

Why are most of their palms facing outward?

I've never seen it done that way. It seems really uncomfortable and a bad way to to transition into a fistfight if shit's about to go down.

[–] iamdisillusioned@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think they are pointing their fingers at "Biden" on the flag.

[–] bmsok@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

If that was the intentent, I get it. But if you're going to flip the bird you should at least send it INTO the camera to enforce the message. This just feels stupid.

[–] baggachipz@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

[–] Colonel_Panic_@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

You are applying logic and intelligence to a situation that has none. No thoughts, just hate and fear. It's sad.

[–] Colonel_Panic_@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago

I guess they are flipping themselves off for being so dumb?

[–] misterundercoat@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

It transitions more easily into the ol' seig heil which they’re all just waiting until it's more acceptable to do in public.

I wonder which one is the mom. Left or right?

[–] chatokun@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 year ago

Should be the lady right to the dads left with blond hair. How which one of the two he's going to jerk off to later... yes?

Sorry, what's this have to do with Christian values? I don't see the connection.

[–] Colonel_Panic_@lemm.ee 59 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Assuming you are asking in good faith. The Christian/Evangelicals are the prominent group of people screaming about values and banning drag and other things they hate (LGBTQ, healthcare/abortion, immigration, voting, etc), while simultaneously being seemingly ok with stuff like this. It is quite blatantly hypocritical. It's all projection and hypocrisy and bigotry.

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's not the evangelicals alone, the party itself is using the argument "for the children" as a cudgel to beat the opposition with. They want to say they simply find trans people and anyone who does drag disgusting, but they have to use the children as an example of innocence being ruined by their opposition.

It's just a political weapon, and as usual for Republicans it's "rules for thee and none for me."

[–] Colonel_Panic_@lemm.ee 12 points 1 year ago

Exactly! And if you go look up the statistics, even accounting for populations and all that you will find that it is RELIGIOUS LEADERS and FAMILY (uncles and cousins or parents I think) that commit most of the CSA. Not drag queens or trans people.

If they ACTUALLY cared about protecting kids they would be going after every church with full investigations and lawsuits galore. Instead they cover them up and brush them off with drivel like "Oh well he wasn't a Christian then" despite the fact they probably were a pastor or youth leader and did it in the church building itself many times.

Wild.

To dawg, I heard you like flags.

[–] randomuser38529@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Fun With Flags is not what it used to be.

[–] riwo@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

i already got one but its not entirely optimal and the part holding the lap strap ripped off :<

[–] Ookami38@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

My roommate has one with two straps that go around the thigh, instead of one around the waist. She loves it.

Seems like the one in the picture also has 2 straps. I wondering how it holds in place for a moment.

I have a fanny pack/ bum bag that I use for surfing. Having an extra strap to hold it flat on my thigh would be super useful, but it has to be watertight.

Edit: for anyone confused, yes, those two terms refer to the same thing, we just call it a different thing depending on which side of the pond you're on. As I understand it, fanny refers to something quite different in the UK.

[–] AlDente@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

I ❤️ fishnets. The texture is so satisfying.
