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

    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...

    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.

    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

    Is The Oatmeal (the creator of this comic) a right winger? Everything I know about him is saying otherwise.

    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.

    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."

    I would offer that conservatives have done more to destroy traditional values and the sanctity of marriage than the LGBT crowd.

    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!

    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?

    Yeah, many don't. But the extremists do. Like evangelicals usually, sometimes they even go as far as arranged marriages. And sadly the amount of extremists is way too high and they have way too much influence and power in this world.

    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.

    I'm on the regular lemmy web interface. There's a little picture icon just before the capital H above the text box.

    Got it.

    Checked the raw text the web app generated in your comment.

    It adds a ! before the [ in normal markdown links

    It inlines images automatically without that, so I thought it just wouldn't inline GIFs, but it just needed a bit of a nudge
