what about police dogs? they can neither go to hell or heaven, thus they are immortal

I would love nothing more than to befriend an immortal dog!

But this comment is technically answered below

it's not showing up for me, what's the answer?

Limbo, along with unbaptised babies.

Hey, it's my favourite Cake song

Im glad they changed the working title

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

There seems to be a lot of people who don't like dogs here right now

Considerable overlap with kids that do graffiti and people who are anti-police.

[–] CluckN 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yeah surprising lack of pro-police graffiti artists out there.

[–] SaakoPaahtaa -3 points 11 months ago (3 children)

How's that surprising? As kids grow up they usually stop graffiti "art" and stop with edgy opinions on the society that surrounds them

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Think the last comment might have been a sarcastic joke

[–] SaakoPaahtaa -2 points 11 months ago

You never know with these. Parodyhorizon was reached years ago

Anti-law enforcement sentiment has ceased being edgy since 2014 and the Ferguson Riots, which showed the world that police sometimes behave like undisciplined drunken desperadoes with military hardware.

Since then, we've had a steady stream of video from smartphones showing police routinely abuse their access to force... and are allowed to harm or kill with impunity.

The world is larger than the US

The status quo is not sufficient for liberation.

Police are class traitors who brutalize and oppress us. They're extracted from our communities to protect the interests of capital and private property.

The fascist pigs are a tool of the state. It maintains its power through a monopoly on violence!

Like I said earlier, it's tough to know whether comments like these are for real or parody.

I don't know, my dog's kind of evil. She once ate an entire nest of baby bunnies. Just slurped them up like spaghetti before we could stop her.

One of the saddest movies ever.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Useless way to comfort yourself, given that neither of the 2 places they go to exist.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Just remember to always take everything absolutely literally. If you go looking for figurative meaning and context, all you'll find is communism.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 11 months ago

Does that stuff require any kind of paraphrasing?
