Not joking by the way, this was made by a conservative artist

What in the manufactured persecution fetish is this bullshit? Where's the meme?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Didn't you hear? Everything is a meme now.

This is a joke, but it's also not (sadly)

It's funny how 'getting an abortion' is the most atheist thing the artist could think of - I believe that's not even forbidden in the Bible?

[–] [email protected] 195 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There's a recipe to induce abortion in the Bible.

Not reading it is part of the book club.

I've been trying to find that bit and my apparently poor googling techniques are finding nothing. Do you mind sharing an article or passage? (Just got back from a vacation with some fairly religious family members who were goddamn tiring, would be nice to be able to cite this next time.)

Wild, thanks! And I appreciate the reference!

Oh, if you want more fun, read them these two verses:

Exodus 21:12:

Anyone who assaults and kills another person must be put to death.

And Exodus 21:22:

When people who are fighting injure a pregnant woman so that she has a miscarriage but no other injury occurs, then the guilty party will be fined what the woman’s husband demands, as negotiated with the judges.

Then ask them why the punishment for killing a person is not the same as the punishment for causing a miscarriage.

After that, ask them why, if the Bible is the "inerrant" word of God, do some translations of that second verse use "miscarriage" while others say something more general like "caused a premature birth" instead? Because the meaning of that verse changes drastically depending on which way it's translated.

At this point, you'll probably be called a godless baby killer and uninvited from Thanksgiving dinner.

It's not really a recipe but the Bitter Waters can be viewed as an abortifacient.
Regardless of if true - that verse does show that the christian god is pro-abortion.

There is a kind of “recipe” in Numbers 5:11-31

It’s a “test for an unfaithful wife” but it’s a curse which would make a woman miscarry a child if it belonged to someone other than her husband.

Finally a relatable comic that offers a true look into the home of your standard antifa, or uppity lib.

Why just the other day I found a baptism certificate in my daughters backpack.

Well that was three abortions and the gender reassignment is booked for next year.

Seriously though, holy fuck. How does someone come up with that nonsense and actually believe that?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 year ago

There's two types. One that is really that stupid and one that just wants to create chaos. There has been scientific research about this.

[–] words_number 110 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The fact that this is not satire about conservatives ridiculous fever dreams, but a serious depiction of one, makes it really damn funny :'D

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 year ago

It made the comic even funnier when I saw that it was unironic

She's probably already pregnant from her youth pastor.

Reverse baptism: when the devil tells the priest to get out of the child.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago (1 children)

THE YOUTH PASTOR PREGNANCY ABORTIONS FOR MY LITTLE SUSIE ARE JUST FINE.

It's all the other little whores who are enjoying sex or may die from their pregnancies that we really worry about. Those babies need to be saved for Jesus.

Wow, I don't even know how to process this. The dumbass conservatives are getting so confused about life they're actually creating sarcastic comics about their way of thinking unintentionally.

This is peak irony

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Conservatives don't know how comedy works. I call it the Yo Mama hypothesis.

When you were a kid, and other kids lied about your mom, you got mad, right? And eventually they'd say - relax, it's a joke, stop crying. And if you're reading this then you probably grew to understand the difference between saying something and meaning it.

I don't think every kid got there.

I think a lot of kids, maybe a whole quarter of humanity, only learned that jokes are insults you have to shut up and take. They're cruelty you're not allowed to get mad about. How would those kids act differently? They'd stop crying, mostly, when people told rude lies about their mothers. They'd snap back at other kids, telling rude lies about their mothers. From those events you'd figure, great! They get it. It's not real. Except... they only look right from the outside. On the inside, they're gathering a list of excuses for vicious behavior.

These people know what jokes look like. They're clever enough to build a punchline. They kinda get how you tell jokes. But they have no idea why you tell jokes.

People defending Dave Chappelle insisted "he's a comedian!" like that absolved all his opinions. I've walked those people through how jokes require setup that reflects sincere beliefs. (Like how "eat the rich" is a joke about classism and cannibalism, but it's only joking about the cannibalism.) I've cited the many times Dave repeated certain claims far from any stage. But these folks never come acknowledge that being a TERF is not part of the act. That's not how it works, in their worldview.

Being a comedian means he gets to say things you're Not Supposed To Say, even if they're things you absofuckinglutely believe. That's all they thought Jon Stewart was doing. That's why they thought Stephen Colbert was on their side.

The same people routinely parroted "you can joke about anything," which is equally revealing. They'd heard it because they insisted "you can't joke about [blank]!" even for the most benign, supportive, and inoffensive gags. And also for dead-baby jokes and antitheism. Point is: these types don't care about severity, because they don't care about meaning. They believe in blasphemy. They think condemnation, criticism, or even just speaking less-than-reverently about a subject is profaning something sacred, and chances are good they'll hit kids for doing it.

We told them every subject is fair game for fair jokes. They'd stop yelling, mostly. And from that event we'd figure, great, they get it. But on the inside, they still believe the issue is what a joke is about. They still think joking is an attack under agreed-upon rules of engagement. So of course funny black man shit on trans people. They don't like trans people. It's hardly a secret. What's our beef, saying he's not allowed to spout jokes full of prejudice and hatred? They're jokes. That's what they're for.

In case you haven't heard of them, chick tracts have been hilariously bad since before the Internet. They are plentiful, and at least as insane as this comic here. You could dedicate a sub to them. One of my favorites was one 'in the near future' where non-christian children were compared to Hitler youth.

Does he believe this? Does ANYONE belive this?

To think people like these can vote

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago (2 children)

They live in an echo chamber where everyone repeats the same nonsense, so yeah, I think loads of them believe it.

They not only can, but they will. Underlining the importance of anyone who sees this as obvious idiocy to vote as well.

The fun part is that it's both!

Why only have one fanbase when there's two?

I know that this is serious, but it's so bad is good.
It has become the parody of a parody, this comic has so many layers of irony that transcends politics

[–] [email protected] 39 points 1 year ago (8 children)

Have fun changing it and sending it back.

Imagine if we just leaned into their wacky right-wing conception of pro-choice and were like "yeah, our endgame is to have as many abortions as possible per capita." Their heads would explode lol
