That's the only reason. - Lemmy.World

Is it because they aren’t attracted to adults or because they don’t like a woman reaching an age where she can make her own decisions?
Humans are very good at clustering themselves in social group, even without the filter bubbles of social media. I guess this is just a more common opinion amongst them. It doesn’t represent the group, nor is there any evidence this is even remotely correlated
Or perhaps it’s just an unrelated coincidence?
Tangentially related is related.
You’d need some assumptions but you’re not wrong
Autonomy and agency are total dealbreakers
Such immature insults with unsavoury implicit messages. There are plenty of legitimate reasons to hate conservatism. Implicitly calling all conservatives (you can never extrapolate anything besides the thing that binds them to a large group) either teenagers or ephebophiles (it’s not clear which, although I suppose teenagers are usually ephebophiles anyway), is obviously untrue, and also wouldn’t be an insult if it was, since ageism doesn’t make good insults, and neither is calling someone an ephebophile, since it means nothing as long as they don’t act on any illegal impulses.
I love how you get downvoted for stating the obvious. Oh someone does not like tattoos and/or piercings? That person must be the devil himself! Absurd. Focus on actual arguments instead of such nonsense.
Imagine reading a joke/meme and feeling personally called out by it.
It’s a joke as much as promoting hateful stereotypes is a joke
Hateful stereotypes aren’t a problem when the hate is rational.
Hate is more bad for yourself than that it stops anyone else doing or being the things you’re hating on
Wow, imagine thinking it’s bad to hate terrible disgusting people that make the world a worse place for everyone… What kind of sheltered ignorance does someone need for that?
The most oppressed class: conservatives.
Conservatives are much more hateful than any stereotype
Does that mean you should be too?
I should be what? A conservative? No, thank you, I live in reality and I’m not scared of made-up culture war bullshit
No, hateful. Just because someone else does something stupid doesn’t mean you should
Oh, yeah, you should be hateful of intolerance. If you aren’t, you’re hurting those who are getting hatecrimed by conservatives
Why are you generalizing a political movement?
How am I generalizing, beyond pointing out the defining cause behind the movement?
This is not a general thing amongst conservatives, that would be ridiculous
Yeah, modern conservatives are ridiculous. Haven’t you heard?
I’ve seen strong polarization in politics, and people demonizing their opponents. Thinking the majority falls in that extreme spectrum is a ridiculous notion imo

Well… if a conservative:

  • supports gay marriage
  • doesn’t believe in ROGD or the notion that people become transgender because of social contagion
  • is okay with sex education that includes homosexuality
  • supports transgender athletes
  • supports transgender people using bathrooms according to their gender
  • is okay with drag shows and doesn’t believe they’re automatically unsuitable for children
  • doesn’t believe that people of color are inherently more violent/stupid/dangerous/filthy/etc
  • supports schools in teaching even the unsightly parts of the country’s history
  • supports immigration
  • supports diversity and inclusion
  • doesn’t believe that young people are lazy ungrateful brats
  • doesn’t support patriarchy
  • defends women’s rights to abortion
  • believes that government should spend more money on helping homeless, drug addicts, disabled, orphans, etc

Is this person still a conservative?

That is a long list, perhaps there’s nuance here? Someone can support some of those and not others, and still mostly lean into a particular political direction

Yeah. There’s a lot of things that conservatives hate, that’s what I was saying since the beginning. And I didn’t even mention the hate of non-christians, for example, or for socialists.

And if you support some things but not the others, you’re still supporting policies based on hate, so my point stands

Some people support things based on hate, but unless you can read minds you can’t generalize that. And also not all conservatives are christians
Can you give me one singular reason to oppose gay marriage that isn’t based on hate?
The meme is about tattoo’s, are just just adding this to make your point work?
Ah yes the sensitive conservative with a persecution complex stereotype…

A person reveals his character by nothing so clearly as the joke he resents.

(Who also liked his women on the younger side, come to think of it, although at least he waited until she was 16 to marry her. Wonder if he would have found this unfunny too.)

Not sure if butthurt pedo or conservative but the unironic use of the word ephebophile is a great hint.
i’m not sure either, but either way, a hurt dog will holler ¯_(ツ)_/¯
i’m not sure either, but either way a hurt dog will holler ¯_(ツ)_/¯
yeah that part definetly made me raise an eyebrow
Well, I didn’t think the post was implying pedophile, is all. But maybe you thought it was, I guess it’s up to one own’s interpretation.

This is a place for undogmatic shitposting and memes

Why would you say something this ridiculous? I’m not being ironic, this is just stupid. Perhaps there’s some weird that actually thinks that, but this generalized statement is just dumb
Joke kinda falls flat cause minors can get both tattoos and piercings with parental permission…
And in some states (guess which ones), a marriage certificate.
TIL I’m conservative because tattoos are unattractive to me
Same, if I wanted you to be naked then I want you to be naked

I think some states let you get them with parental permission

Or maybe all those girls I saw in middle school with earrings just had it done at home?
