Intentionally leaving out the word "practically" when you misquote me is some underhanded shit and you know it.

Here's why I said atheism is P R A C T I C A L L Y a religion:

• Total faith in a premise that cannot be proven or disproven
• Rampant prejudice and misdirected hostility
• Eagerness to maintain an in-group/out-group dynamic
• Unearned sense of superiority

So it's not just his tone, but my tone too. You're putting me in a position where I'm supposed to defend things I never said about things that guy never said. Save this shit for your imaginary shower arguments.

Ah, so we're policing tone. I see.

I desperately wish I could make it one single day without seeing someone talk about jews angrily. Being jewish and having an internet connection is a terrible combination.

Edit: This has the exact same negative impact on my emotions as if you posted it sincerely.

I think I'm correctly interpreting the effective meaning of the comic. The effective meaning takes precedent over the intended meaning. Now that you know my view, do you think everyone's response to my take is justified? It's pretty demoralizing how readily everyone assumes the least charitable interpretation of my words when there is any level of ambiguity. Nobody ever asks me to clarify. It's just a fucking dogpile right out the gate because this whole charade of "discourse" is a dopamine-seeking frenzy dressed up as intellectualism.

A lot of you are acting like he's trying to impose his will on others when he really isn't. If you fail to see that nuance, you're just as prejudice as the religious folks you love to hate. This is supposed to be religious cringe, not atheist cringe... but nowadays atheism is practically a religion too, so I guess it fits.

My point is that I find it disgusting how society doesn't seem to give a shit about homeless men but they do care about homeless women and children. Homeless women and children seem to be the main focus for most people seeing as there are so many more resources only available to homeless women and children than there are to homeless men despite the fact that the VAST majority are adult men. Society has a sickening lack of sympathy for homeless men, to the point where you can't get some people to care about the homelessness crisis in the slightest until you inform them that some homeless people are women and children. This comic is a demonstration of that phenomenon. The comic essentially says "actually, you should care about homelessness because they aren't all just men"

Read the rest of my comments on this website and you'll see that pretty much everything I say makes someone angry at me. Maybe your pet will reconsider

Christ, you actually can't find a way to communicate without patronizing. I literally do not care what you have to say about my character or personality or whatever, it's got very little to do with the actual substance of my comment.

I meant your actual point. I'm skipping the dumb internet fight bits. The third sentence in your message. Who said anything about "taking advantage of the system" because I surely did not.

Don't take this the wrong way, but I'm not sure what your point is. Can you rephrase and/or elaborate please?

Just what you to know that not everything is a personal attack directly at you.

Surely you can find a way to communicate this without being patronizing...

Honestly this cartoon fucking sucks. Something like 80% of homeless people are adult men like the first panel. The three other panels essentially serve the message "Did you know some homeless people are women and children??? Do you care NOW?"

Hilarious that everyone is trying to make this into a sexist thing. The pharmacy tech bit is about fantasizing about someone to the point that you create in unrealistic image of them. The reason someone is disappointed about them being a pharmacy tech is because they aren't a necromancer or a witch or some other gothic thing. It's like oh, I thought you were gonna bring me back to your castle so we can drink blood from goblets and pray to the old gods, but we're actually just gonna watch TV?

Jesus christ, nuance is so fucking dead.

My soul is not beautiful

Boooo don't make this sort of joke at strangers you nasty slime

Wowww this is so deep bro you totally blew my mind, now pass the bong

The "In memory of country music 1922-1999" bit at the end actually made me kinda sad. I love actual country music :(

Idk if you guys know this but you can have a best friend without FUCKING THEM, YOU FILTHY FUCKING ANIMALS

Tough when you need a job.
