Maybe. Unfortunately US law doesn’t have a concept of “freedom to not worship”, so it’s tricky for atheists to push back against religious overreach because it’s hard to prove the exclusive religious favoritism for Christians in this country as an atheist since atheists are by definition impossible to prevent from worshiping.

It’s a lot easier to just say hail Satan and then crush the snowflakes in court since now you are religious, just for a bullshit religion which they can’t legally call bullshit on. Because that’s the other thing. There is absolutely no legal test of faith. The court must take satanists specifically at their word and push no further. Christianity is a major established religion in the US which means Satan is widely recognized, so it isn’t a random cult they can spin shutting down, and it is a religion so they can’t pretend the satanist isn’t covered by the first amendment protection.

Basically US law is stupid and that makes claiming to be a satanist extremely legally expedient

Regardless of what the answer is, you are definitely not happy. Seriously my dude. Why are you being so aggressive? Miscommunication happens all the time. It isn’t this big of a deal

I have no agenda. Unlike you I don’t give a fuck what someone else decides to do with their life. I’m not misreading or mischaracterizing anything. Chappelle roan has been astoundingly clear on her opinion. You’re just not listening, and arguing against what you feel like arguing against. You’re angry at a strawman and it’s preventing you from actually talking about the topic seriously

Nope. They literally didn’t read it correctly. You’re projecting hard here dude. Just because this situation implies you also have terrible reading comprehension skills doesn’t mean you have to take it so personally.

Seriously, I was just trying to help him out by clearing up the miscommunication. I truly don’t care one way or the other what people do with their own genitals

Not op bro. I was just letting them know they misread the prompt. I’d love for them to be happy as a person having chosen to have children. Being miserable sucks! I hope that’s not the case, but I don’t know if it is or not because op pointedly did not address it

There’s a huge difference between “I am happy with my choice” and “I am happy in my life”

Not my question, not moving goalposts. I’ve got no dog in this race my dude. I was just explaining that they didn’t read the question right. If that’s still their answer then great! Good for them! But I’d love to hear their actual answer to the actual question chappel roan posed from their own “lips” thank you very much.

That’s not what she meant. It’s not “are you happy being a parent?” It’s “are you, a person who happens to be a parent, genuinely happy?”

Damn that’s dark.

It’s a guest contributor to a local paper deep in Mormon country. It’s not really hard to add up

Have the police attempted to justify their actions?

I’d rather live in a world where the concept of “copyright” doesn’t exist at all. Unfortunately we don’t live in that world and art can be exchanged for money. As such, let’s stick to trying to keep people from starving rather than pretending this is fine because the concept of capitalism is inherently broken, mkay?

I mean, I get the idea that it’s easier to do this sort of thing at scale with this technology, but there are already entire sophisticated corporations overseas dedicated solely to phishing at scale already using ultra cheap labor so like … Is anything really going to change other than those scam companies going out of business due to grassroots competition? I don’t really see how this changes anything other than the labor budget of phishing companies.
