You're saying that bottom surgery is genital mutilation. They're giving examples of situations where even a transphobes should agree that bottom surgery is good. If it is mutilation in those examples, then you agree with what they said. If it isn't mutilation in those examples, then it isn't mutilation in the first place.

Bottom surgery is literally, definitionally, not mutilation when it's done for a consenting adult.

If you want to call bottom surgery mutilation by your own definition, then literally every surgery is mutilation. But like, cutting out my defective heart and installing a working one, while technically "mutilating" me, is objectively a good for my health.

You can call surgery mutilation if you want, but it isn't helpful to anyone and it only serves to make transphobes feel good about themselves.

Why does any kind of bottom surgery have to be illegal? Why not just limit it to consenting people above the age of majority?

Grouping bottom surgery with genital mutilation makes you sound like an alt-right troll, and it bugs me that this is well received on this website.

Edit: "I'm not even an atheist" means absolutely nothing. You're just teaming up with an atheist in an online argument to bash Jews.

If you're a desert tribe with scarce resources, maybe don't be performing unnecessary surgical procedures on infants? Just a thought

Hundreds of thousands of years of evolution vs one dude a couple thousand years ago who really wanted a piece of that baby's dick

Idunno man, I gotta side with the millenia old shaman, he assures me that God wants my son's dick hacked up

A history of being discriminated against doesn't excuse awful customs

Man idunno, I don't have a problem with my dick (small as it may be), but it kinda bothers me that some doctor cut a piece of it off when I was a baby.

Who cares? 🤷‍♀️ Screw the rules, use em anyway

Right? There's literally no other way to make it clear that you're being sarcastic

"If you want to tell a joke in which the humor is derived from you saying something incorrect, or something that would be offensive if you genuinely believed it, you should instead just say the actual truth and never use sarcasm again"

That's actually such a good idea, it would make life on the internet so much better /s

Personally I used it to keep shinigami eyes users from tagging my then-universal handle as problematic when I made an off-color joke. I've been banned from subreddits I never heard of because of something I said as a joke in a totally different subreddit

tHiS is only useful for short phrases. Saying more than one sentence in this style makes me just skip the paragraph because it's annoying to read.

I mean a lot of neurodivergent people literally didn't survive until a few decades ago

"they're merely cognitively insufficient" fucking 🤓 nerdass, go back to reddit with these reddit-ass insults

I don't see any problem with comments that start with "this" and then expand on it. It's a synonym for "I concur," but doesn't sound snobby

It's a tag that denoted sarcasm, for comments where it isn't abundantly clear that you're joking

"This website that I and others like me decided to migrate to is much better than the place I left. That must mean everyone who decided to come here is super smart!"

Don't get so full of yourself that you burst.

This seems to be fake. Can't find a single news story matching the text in the post. I'm gonna take a wild guess and say that someone made this story up to stir up arguments about Muslims and atheism. Maybe it was intended to highlight the hypocrisy of any Christians who agree that a child shouldn't be raised Muslim.

I'm pretty sure I heard a story about an open source Minecraft hack client that was openly stealing discord authentication tokens, and nobody noticed for weeks because the only people who check the source code are people who plan on modifying it

Whatever you do, it's important to support app developers. Definitely don't manually set your DNS to dns.adguard.com on your phone, to block all ads in apps

Super don't use 94.140.14.14 and 94.140.15.15 as the primary and alternative addresses for systems that don't accept URLs to DNS servers. You would block (some of) all the ads on any Internet connected device!
