I didn’t realize commenting was an important metric. I check lemmy everyday but rarely have something useful to say.

Republicans have never cared about children.

Boy, these conservatives are really something, aren’t they? They’re all in favor of the unborn. They will do anything for the unborn. But once you’re born, you’re on your own. Pro-life conservatives are obsessed with the fetus from conception to nine months. After that, they don’t want to know about you. They don’t want to hear from you. No nothing. No neonatal care, no day care, no head start, no school lunch, no food stamps, no welfare, no nothing. If you’re preborn, you’re fine; if you’re preschool, you’re fucked.

The younger generation is having less sex despite abstinence only education, not because of it. We have multiple studies showing “abstinence only” education is one of the worst ways to prevent teen pregnancy, yet religious conservatives continue to push for this because they would rather control women than lower teen pregnancy.

Republicans do not care about freedom or personal liberty. Texas is pretty red with the exception of the major cities. The majority of the state is roughly in favor of these decisions.

Lmao, Musk is the new Gary Young, the supplment king. Behind the Bastards did an episode on him, he really wanted to be a surgeon without that pesky medical license requirement.

Do you have to add “zoinks” at the end when you say it wasn’t me?

Eh, lemmy -> reddit is not without scaling issues, but reddit doesn’t upload 10s of terabytes of video every day, much smaller infrastructure required than youtube.

No, they’ve gone plaid.

Sounds like there needs to be a new edition of The Green Book
