Ah, so you're a landlord, that's why you're so evil. Your whole argument here is basically "I can't exploit them for maximum profit while doing basically nothing so they all are subhumans who don't deserve help". That's vile, man.

Also, I'll take an educated guess and say that you're in New York. And since it's America, these homeless people didn't have access to psychiatric or narcologic help during their stay, and probably didn't have any relatives/friends/social workers to support them (you and your friends clearly never offered help beyond what's required for you and them to receive money). And battling mental illness alone, while still stressing about a job and where to love after the contract expires and they're kicked out because they're too disabled to look after themselves doesn't lead to a speedy recovery. Same applies if they're battling addiction.

At the same time, yearly police budget of NYC is 5.8 billion dollars. Given that there are around 100 thousand homeless people and NYC median rental rate of ~3100$/month for a studio appartment, NYC could pay for a full studio appartment for each homeless person for the whole year, and it would cost under 2/3 of the police budget. So yeah, it's not THAT expensive in the grand scheme of things.

People say that Bloodfiend nerf isn't significant, like 220 -> 195 bleed buildup or somewhere along those lines. So it's probably still viable

Ok, so you do admit that opposition to gay marriage is based on hate. Good.

And the discussion was about the fact that the vast majority of conservative policies are dictated by fear. Have you forgotten?

[-] RusAD@lemm.ee 1 points 6 months ago

Can you give me one singular reason to oppose gay marriage that isn't based on hate?

[-] RusAD@lemm.ee 1 points 6 months ago

Yeah. There's a lot of things that conservatives hate, that's what I was saying since the beginning. And I didn't even mention the hate of non-christians, for example, or for socialists.

And if you support some things but not the others, you're still supporting policies based on hate, so my point stands

[-] RusAD@lemm.ee 1 points 7 months ago

Oh, yeah, you should be hateful of intolerance. If you aren't, you're hurting those who are getting hatecrimed by conservatives

Being transgender is a constant and persistent condition. Even for genderfluid people the "fluidity" needs to be repeatable. If a girl/woman suffering from cramps during her period thinks "I wish I was a boy/man so that I didn't need to suffer through this every month", she doesn't become trans because of it.

And "gender confusion" isn't a fair description. It's basically saying "they are wrong about what they're feeling". And you're not a telepath to know that

Nah. The accurate depiction would be like this:

Republican on top: "I drillled the hole!" Democrat beside him: "If you vote for me, I'll plug the hole!"

Voters and non-voters together at the bottom actively solving the problem. Non-voters: "I don't want to vote for this lazy ass" Voters: "Noooo, please vote, or else Republican will drill more holes!"

(BTW I think you should vote to prevent more holes from being drilled. But Democrats don't do enough. Biden was a president for almost a whole term now. Did he ensure basic human rights for trans people and trans kids specifically nationwide? Did he ensure basic human rights of pregnant women nationwide? Did he ensure the safety of doctors performing reproductive care? Did he penalize Israel for committing genocide? Did he enforce proper accountability for police discriminating against minorities (or, in that case, for any wrongdoings)? Doesn't look like it to me. He did cap insulin prices for some, which is nice and a step in the right direction, but yeah, far from enough)
