OBJECTION!

I suppose the previous status quo that anti-natalists want to return to is before the evolution of intelligent life. Word is still out on whether it’s immoral for single-celled organisms to reproduce.

Antinatalism is reactionary and incorrect.

Antinatalism isn’t just a personal decision to not have kids, it’s an ideological belief that having kids is morally wrong.

Guess you never heard of the great leap forward or Mao Zedong. He did a number on the chinese population.

Hmm not familiar, does he have anything to do with this though?

What’s wrong with you?

What’s wrong with you? Why did you choose to become a bloodthirsty, bootlicking imperialist? Why do you support mass slaughter for profit that you won’t even see, that will only go to the super rich parasites who are actively making life worse for the rest of us?

Lol! Three quarters of poverty reduction since the 80’s was in China. “American hegemony” my ass.

Again, I hope the “defense” industry does to you what you want it to do to others. And I hope you have enough time to really appreciate it too.

Absolutely not. You deserve to be treated the way you want for others. If you support a system that kills hundreds of thousands of innocent people in a decades-long occupation following an unprovoked war of aggression, then, well, you do the math on what you deserve.

Anyway I would think you’d be thanking me for what I said. You just told me I should be “thanking Lockheed Martin,” so surely to be on the receiving end of what they do is something you should be grateful for.

Why do you see being on the receiving end of “a strong national defense with private enterprises” as a death threat? Were you advocating for killing people?

I literally only advocated for you to get what you’re advocating for. Your conclusion that that means I was calling for your death only makes sense if you were advocating for death yourself.

I only wished for you to receive the consequences of what you support. If that’s death, then I’ll turn the question back to you: why do you feel the need to wish people death?

Well, if you told me you hoped I was on the receiving end of what I support, I wouldn’t see it as a threat. Maybe you should try supporting better things.

That’s an interesting assumption.

You should be thanking Lockheed martin

I sincerely hope that you one day find yourself on the receiving end of what you support.

So democracy is to blame?

Again, absolutely bizarre takes. Just incredible how completely unrelated these responses are to anything I’m saying or any coherent line of thought.

You’re treating it as if Lockheed Martin just, inherently ought to exist, that it would be impossible for them not to exist. They do not.

Since you seem to be struggling to understand how that could possibly be, I’ll tell you: nationalization. The government should seize control of all assets belonging to Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and Boeing (ideally, the CEOs and upper management should be deported to Afghanistan to face justice), no one should be able to make a profit from it (aside from wages), they should not be able to have lobbyists, and there should be no ability to go from war profiteer to policy maker deciding what wars to start or vice versa.

But if you want to lick the boots of warmongers who cause bloodshed for the sake of corporate profits, I guess I can’t stop you. But what I can say is that, as a queer person, I completely reject their performative “support” and have no desire to be associated with them in any way, and that they can take their pride flags and shove them up their ass.

Don’t know what planet you live on , but bad people exist

And Lockheed Martin is giving them weapons, yes.

Wow. I genuinely don’t know how you managed to come up with that, it’s genuinely impressive.

Try: “Manufacturing weapons of war for profit when you can’t guarantee that they won’t end up in the wrong hands is unethical and war profiteering corporations should not exist.”

Bottom right, third from the bottom.

Multiple stealth edits lol.

See if you can spot the differences:

there are people around the world who will take stuff like this at face value and hate queer people because they associate us with the US military.

long-standing homophobia in other countries is caused by the US military becoming relatively queer-friendly 10 years ago

I understand that you’re coming into this with a bone to pick with me, looking for any way to twist my words around. But maybe you, uh, shouldn’t do that.

Ok I’m imagining it. Seems like a really dumb thing to believe. Not sure what that has to do with anything I said tho.

Swing and a miss. Try going in the opposite direction.
