Apparently being the victim of genocide gives you a free pass.

What game is this?

Excuse me?! Um, Japanese that got sent to internment camps run by the United States (I’m saying it this way because I learned from George Takei interviews it can be easily mislabeled and her takes great criticism to people that say it wrong), were all grouped together as one nationality accused of possibly being on the side of the Japanese military.

Does Trump think the people at the Capital were all rounded up for being his supporters? These things are not the same. It is insulting to Japanese living in the United States to compare them.

Is this ad real? I know the game is real.

I would immediately cite anti-LGBTQIA+ sentimentality as the contributing factor. While lots of people understand that homosexuals aren’t the only people who can contract the infection, I’m sure the treatments being aimed primarily at homosexuals as the highest risk group, will make certain people unwilling to believe it is a potential risk.

It sucks that safe sex isn’t a thing being discussed. However it does feel like anti-abortion laws would be unnecessary if teens had access to sought information. I’m sure with the advent of Internet based pornography, teens are being influenced more by that with no educational tools to say that people in pornography (I am sure not everyone across the industry follows health guidelines but for the “professionals” you’d hope they do) have access to testing and other health related care.

If we are going to be cynical about this, one reason I suspect sex education is no longer being thought would be to fall inline with twisted alt-right/conservative values about women NEEDING to have children. With lack of information about contraception, teens might believe they can’t be safe. Maybe they actually have access to contraception but aren’t aware. Maybe contraception is being banned. If you have no contraception, then the rate of pregnancy will increase and maybe those anti-abortion lawmakers wish to see more unwanted pregnancies instead of anyone wishing to engage in recreational sex that doesn’t aim for procreation.

I want receipts and video footage before I believe this.

And a lot of people misinterpret “Born in the USA” as a patriotic song.

EDIT: If you don’t know and didn’t want to spend a few seconds using Google, it is about American veterans who served in Vietnam, returning home, and not having a very prosperous livelihood.

Hallbeck’s comics are a delight. I like watching the animated ones too.

Don’t forget that Connor Trinneer had to spend one entire episode in their underwear.

Ha ha, I just remembered that I go to that website for LCARS sound clips to customize stuff in my phone.

I used to have a co-worker that was a hardcore supporter. Donated to her campaign. And of course they got all their news from RT. I stopped listening the second they told me they actively watch propaganda media designed for Russians.
