Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I am so tired of the whole "cool pope" thing with Francis. It's 100% PR.

Human dignity has been a nonarguement for 100,000 years

Human dignity is certainly not something the world's leading sponsor of institutional child rape should have any opinion on

I feel like that's a bit of a conservative estimate honestly.

[–] Sam_Bass 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Probably. the further back you look, the less dignified humanity appears. dignity drops hard in the face of reality

The universe was a mistake and all that jazz.
