Yep favourite was when I was told queer people have declared war on God. Makes us sound metal as fuck.

Oh no, not Etc!
Thank you for not overlooking etc! Our plight is and so forth and whatnot, but we won’t be silenced, and what have you!
Etc got gayrolled
Not my host specific configuration files!!
Why does this look like The Oatmeal?
Because it is the Oatmeal and they just slapped text on the top to suggest otherwise
I love the ones who argue sanctity of marriage are usually on their 2nd marriage or ooze with infidelity.
2 right-wingers I used to work with...
-
Person A cheated on his first wife with his now 2nd wife while she was married to his friend, and they had kids out of wedlock together
-
Person B notoriously cheated on his first wife for years.
-
Person B's current wife got divorced once for infidelity, had a kid out of wedlock with a different guy, banged her already-married boss at work, conveniently got promoted to his position when he left, screwed around with at least 1 of her subordinates while she then started sleeping with person B.
But yeah, 2 dudes blowing each other is what ruined marriage...
And they love the idea of watching two women fucking
Christian "values", traditional "values", "etc"
It's short for ectopic pregnancies that are entirely unviable, and will kill the mother,but can't be aborted because that's still murder and "gods will"
specifically straight white, christian values, adding alitle conservatism in it.
I like that if you start at "Sanctity of marriage", something the radical right clearly does not actually value, and work counterclockwise the terms get increasingly vague and meaningless until they completely phone it in with "Etc". What values.
"If robosexual marriage becomes legal, imagine the horrible things that will happen to our children, then imagine we said those things, since we couldn't think of any. As a mother, those things worry me." -Futurama
So I like playing the cinnamon rolls game. Every time you see "marriage" instead read "a common law government contract that bestows rights and responsibilities and formalizes systems of inheritance and power of attorney in cases of incapacity, originally managed by churches because religions were the original governments" and the word sanctity loses all meaning by the end of a discussion with a homophobia
The gays are coming for your /etc folder!
Nooooo plz tell them to at least leave /var/www
Is The Oatmeal (the creator of this comic) a right winger? Everything I know about him is saying otherwise.
Nah it was him taking the piss outta fallwell and people who overuse the word literally

Look how happy the steamrollerers are
No, he publicly stated this was a alteration of his work https://www.facebook.com/share/1Dww8fX5ZM/
The Oatmeal comic was still created as a reaction to an incredibly homophobic comment from an extreme right winger before he died.
So even though it's an alteration, it's still exactly how the comic was originally designed.
So even though it's an alteration, it's still exactly how the comic was originally designed.
I get what you're saying, but there's something funny about your comment that is basically saying "even though it's different, it's the same."
SO I dug a bit and the original is from a comic called Literally where he pokes fun of the word literally being used as its own antonym instead of figuratively.
Specifically he mocks a quote from some dead bigot.
Having never met the dude but as an expert on webcomics i can authoritatively say no they are not.
What good is all that studying if you can't stick up for the allies too
I would offer that conservatives have done more to destroy traditional values and the sanctity of marriage than the LGBT crowd.
Oh no, not et cetera! That encompasses all the other things!
Oh no! Someone think of the Christian values that even Christians don't actually adhere to and just weaponize when it is convenient for them!
So like most values people claim to have?
That's a swing and a miss there, slugger
I don't really care
Being honest, only thing I care about is the sanctity of marriage. Tho, for them is the gays not being able to marry for me it's not getting cheated on.
And don't forget for them it's "until death do us part" while it's easy to grow apart, devorce and continue with your life instead of being both miserable because you're not supposed to devorce.
For who is it "'til death do us part"? The party of serving your cancer-stricken wife divorce papers in her hospital bed?
Isn't that how Christians are married?
Yeah but they don't actually do it
Lol christians don't even follow christian values
Just ask for forgiveness at death or on Sunday and they good, meanwhile they feel they have a pass to be assholes to everyone else. Anyways, that's just my observation. Ever had a argument wit a conservative Christian? Man they go nuts if you ask is that what Jesus would do?
The etc is really a "you know what i mean" here.
As in "this cartoon is preaching to the choir". It doesn't make people think or do anything butnnod knowingly.
What a waste of even a little creativity.
Where’s that meme of the badly drawn guy biting his lip?
It really whips the llama's ass.
IDC IF IT'S RIGHT WING OR LEFT WING.

I JUST WANT MEMES THAT WHIP HELLA ASS.
That's the Christian people when the pastor reads from the bible they'll complain he's too woke and leftist.
You'll take my Etc from my cold dead hands!
Can I have a go on the gayroller next?

*edited testing inline strategies learned below
Yes - exactly this!
"Help, help, gay people are forcing me to fantasise about gay sex! Help! Help! If they allow gay marriage I won't be able to marry a woman and I'll have to marry a man! Help!"
(Inlined below for ease of seeing)

How does one master this inline sorcery?
I'm on the regular lemmy web interface. There's a little picture icon just before the capital H above the text box.
