oh wow, I wonder if there's a particular religious or ethnic group for whom circumcision is a ritual practice 😐

(sidenote: a lot of evangelicals also just did a double take, but this is not for them)

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

lol, saying "viewers don't care what they're looking at" says more about the target audience of their movies than it does about people who watch movies in general

maybe the fans of *checks notes* HAPPY DEATH DAY 2 U and M3GAN don't care if it's AI, i'll give em that, very likely true

bro my internet bill divebombed my bank account before my rent withdrew and caused my rent to go NSF so it rejected the transaction 😐🔫

yeahhh, even as an average worker, I've probably spent several thousand on bottles of scotch and bourbon over a decade and those were ~$100/each at best

(for those who don't know, GGD sells libraries of sample patches they recorded by hand in a real studio space in collaboration with the artist and then built into a simple to use plugin/standalone app that you can install on your computer and use at your will, it's everything ai will never be)

why yes, I WOULD like to have meticulously sculpted samples of matt garstka's playing and drumkit to play around with, how kind of you to ask an also offer me an ethical and legitimate means of purchasing such a thing that will allow the artist to both gain credit and profit from their work! 🙂

getgood drums rules, dude. in the age of AI, they are making real library tools that let you capture your favorite artists' playing IN A WAY THAT ALLOWS THOSE PEOPLE TO PROFIT!!

WHAT AN UNCONVENTIONAL STRATEGY! PAYING ARTISTS FOR THEIR TALENT AND SKILL BEFORE RESELLING IT TO CONSUMERS!!

probably a good question to ask yourself before jumping into someone's replies trying to start a fight, don't ya think?

spoOoOokyfox @slooowfox.bsky.social · 21h

I'd rather ally with a non-evangelical christian rn than any of the communists whose goals include eradicating religion and prison work camps, because the presbyterians and I are at least pulling in the direction of the same future of true liberation and freedom and not just different fascism

spoOoOokyfox @slooowfox.bsky.social · 21h

it's incredibly crucial, especially now, to look at the truth of things and not just the convenient narratives we choose to spin about them. it's not as easy as saying "christianity is bad", that's an elementary school level understanding and critique and I won't let anyone get away with that shit

not every christian denomination delights in suffering, oppression, domination, coercion, manipulation, propaganda, and genocidal fascist politics

many of them are actually growing and changing and progressing rapidly in this moment. I know at least one trans clergy member in an accepting church

ok so this guy is white but he's a good exanple of why I don't believe christian teachings are false or evil, and why I'm careful to say White American Evangelical Christian Church and not just "christians"

in the same way, not all Jews are zionists and you won't get me to condemn Judaism broadly

Scott Horton @robertscotthorton.bsky.social · 1d

This is Rev David Black, minister of the First Presbyterian Church in Chicago. He was shot seven times in the head with chemical pellets by ICE agents as he was kneeling to pray at a protest. He's one of three clergymen that ICE shot in the head.

WWII "Friend" poster series from the Allied Forces, originally demonstrating the various Allied forces (British, Australian, Chinese, French, Dutch, etc.) and their appearances

It reads:

"This man is your FRIEND

He fights for FREEDOM"

The image is a sepia/black and white toned image of the Portland Frog protester, simply labelled FROG

even if someone fact checks them or calls them out, the damage is already done, because people will not stop believing in the initial version of the story they were told, and they'll act as though it is true. propaganda acts as a lever to turn falsehoods into real world action by moving people

spoOoOokyfox @slooowfox.bsky.social · 1d

it's all a fiction meant to justify violent action, which is what fascists are always aiming for. they need to slap a label of some kind onto a box, which they then throw all the enemies of the state into. they spin a narrative around it to fill folks' heads with something shaped like truth

spoOoOokyfox @slooowfox.bsky.social · 1d

they don't care about truth or credibility, all they want is a narrative spun to fit their worldview, and that's what the fascist media provides. some random person who may or may not exist that validates their already held beliefs and prejudices and tells them what they want to hear

spoOoOokyfox @slooowfox.bsky.social · 1d

the second is what we see here, where they throw out the equivalent of "best friend's former college roommate", because as far as conservatives and their supporters are concerned, it doesn't fucking matter who their "informant" actually is. no one is going to look it up. they're just nodding along
