So his lack of mustache is because he is turning gay or because he is Bi?

[–] PugJesus 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

He's dangerously bicurious

Aren't we all a little bike curious sometimes?

[–] Anticorp 3 points 4 months ago

No no, that's to make his fellow men gay, not depict him as gay.

[–] Eylrid 11 points 4 months ago

He doth protest too much

[–] kemsat 6 points 4 months ago

Possibly the gayest thing I’ve ever read

[–] ParabolicMotion 3 points 4 months ago

Uh, no. Men like Phil don’t need a beard to look more manly.

I don't really feel good about memes making fun of Islam. It just gives me the ick.

Fundamentalist preachers are weird the world over, regardless of religion. Islam has gone through phases of (relative, it IS still an Abrahamic religion) LGBT-friendliness and LGBT-hostility. Extremely LGBT hostile 18th-19th century AD Wahhabist inspired fundamentalism is popular right now, and like extremely LGBT hostile 18th-19th century AD inspired Christian evangelical fundamentalism, it is rife with absurdity and absurd preachers.

It does seem that gay fundamentals the world over cope with what would otherwise be intense self-hatred by projecting

You don't need to go all the way back to the 19th century to find persecution of LBGT people in Muslim countries. 3 men were executed by gunshots to the head in 2015 for being gay in Libya, and a Nigerian Islamic Court ordered a man be stoned to death in 2022. There plenty more cases of execution for homosexuality in Muslim lead countries. You will easily find them if you look for them.

My point was that the current trend of LGBT hostility in Islam stems from the popularity of Wahhabist ideology, which itself only dates to the 18th-19th century AD.

I, for one, support memes that make fun of any religion.

[–] GunValkyrie 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

How does this make fun of Islam? I'm not incredibly familiar with the religion but I wasn't aware it said that men without a beard make other men gay.

And the Bible doesn't say abortion or slavery is bad, but here we are.

[–] Anticorp 6 points 4 months ago

Too bad.

There's plenty of good theists, but there are certain categories that deserve the mockery. Homophobic categories are one of them.

It's nobody else's fault but their own that they're a laughingstock. 🤷‍♀️

I ain’t downvote you, but bro, come on. People who believe god said “ABRACADABRA!” and shat out Adam 5,000 years ago are completely fucked.
