They like the notes. They aren't as effective as they claim, but it allows them to pretend they're moderating content using it. People who agree with the nasty stuff will just ignore it; it won't change their mind.

I mean, I agree, to an extent. As someone else pointed out, the cross banning would never work out in the US, and that shows the difference in how both things are treated here.

So, we can ban crosses? I'm obviously going a bit far, but both somewhat touch on the way people believe rights should be secured, and both involve human rights (one to free expression of religion, another to life and fr33dom from unfair treatment in general). Both make statements to others that others may find uncomfortable, depending on their beliefs.

Yeah, if it only took me 15 mins and I didn't have to drive, I'd be fine with it too. Currently my drive is about 30m outside of rush hour times, longer of course during. In addition I have to move soon, so it might go up again. That's all just wasted time.

People who have this take often feel similar about medicine, vaccines, etc. Natural remedies, essential oils, or just good old God is punishing you if you get sick. (A lot of them are hypocrites too, as they'll drop some of this stuff to save their own lives).

Just a bad joke on your typo at the end, "holly shit" instead of "holy shit". Holly berries are poisonous and will give you diarrhea.

Yeah, eating holly berries will do that to ya.

Burning books like this requires enough targeted hatred and a need to offend the targets. It also is usually more effective if your target is a minority (not specifically racial, just a much weaker target), as that bolsters your position of power and lessens the likelihood of retaliation.

Atheists sometimes have that much hatred, but at least where I am Christianity isn't small enough to be a minority, so the fear of backlash might be holding back some of the hatred type atheists.

Another reason may depend on why someone became an atheists. Many of us don't hate religious people directly, we just have issues with what organized religion gets away with. People like me came to this conclusion by comparing scientific evidence to blind faith. By nature, faith will be more emotional and reactionary, whereas if you come to a position after learning and changing yourself, you're more open to understanding why it's not really a good idea to hate like that.

Though I'd call myself agnostic vs an atheist.

Sometimes, yeah. I had several years in FL 2here I didn't get above 3.5% unless it was a title and position change

They've both been on infowars multiple times, but some legitimate people do get on that show by accident too. Like Story Musgrave and Dr Dean Edell.

While we agree Biden has issues, seeing only RKJR and someone who without looking her up again just triggered "crazy!" In my head, I simply wondered why there wasn't any progressive candidates listed at all. Marianne has some rep issues to work on. This is from someone who has been out of touch for a bit with politics as in people running, bu5 definitely with leftwing viewpoints. I wouldn't make a final decision this early, I'd research more before actually voting. But faced with a sudden poll, I don't like a single person I recognize, and I don't recognize far more.
