[News] Post a D&D Picture

Previous incarnations of Cleveland/P&C/D&D have had an image thread, to handle political cartoons and other image-based stuff that doesn't belong in the general post-a-picture threads.

If any of them spawn an extended discussion, please spawn it off into its own thread. Replies to non-picture replies should take the form of a link pointing to a post on a different discussion thread.

And I shouldn't have to say it, but the images still need to abide by the rules.

It's an even worse tweet because the actual article is about a study of what can be done to reduce zoonotic viruses by reducing deforestation and monitoring and curtailing wildlife trade, especially bushmeat. The largest chunk of the estimated $22.2 billion cost is paying Chinese bushmeat traders $19.4 billion to find another job.

Cringe worthy racism - refuted but still might be uncomfortable so be aware

Comment no longer relevant. Thanks Farley.

I don't want anyone to feel worried when they open this thread so I spoilered it.

Some perspective from an ex-Catholic: This is excommunication-lite.

By standard Catholic doctrine, if you knowingly and consciously refuse to receive communion during certain times on the Catholic liturgical calendar - for example, Lent and Holy Week (lead up to Easter) - you have committed a mortal sin. Mortal sins are those that damn you to hell if left unconfessed and unrepented, because you commit them knowing exactly what you're doing.

If Joe Biden is refused communion during this whole period, it is technically his choice, because all he has to do is change his position on abortion, and he's back in business with communion. So if he continues to hold this position through all of Lent and Holy Week next year, and is refused communion, he has technically committed a mortal sin, and is damned to hell until he confesses and repents.

So, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops basically wants Joe Biden to go to hell.

He just has to find a single catholic priest willing to give him communion though, doesn't he? It doesn't matter if the USCCB wants to withhold it if he can still get it from another source.

The last two comments really underscore how the Catholic church is evil. Not that either of you are wrong but the church is just evil.

The idea that priests would willingly, knowingly, intentionally try to damm a soul to eternal torment is just so against any/every message from Jesus that I wish someone would nail a rebuke to a church door or something.

I would imagine that’s a lot more difficult for the President of the United States to do than your average Catholic.

Also, technically, he doesn’t have to change his position he just hast to publicly state that he has, and in the confessional say that he lied and nothing more specific.

TIL that I've racked up a boat load of mortal sins. I also learned that my CCD teachers were terrible because I didn't know the whole mortal sin BS.

They forgot the "No Good" option before "Very Bad".

I note the not-so-subtle bit about how it's President Trump and Joe Biden.

Yeah. How exactly is Joe Biden ruining the country if he's not president?

Ooh! Ooh! I know this one! By consuming the adrenochrome from the pedophile children of pizza restaurants!

Biden IS President, but only because Trump lured him and the deep state into a trap. He knew ol’ sleepy Joe and his reptilian handlers couldn’t resist stealing the election from the American people, so he let it happen and then went into hiding so that the fraudulent election would be revealed through documented audits and recounts, at which point all Americans will be so disgusted at the blatant criminality that everyone regardless of party affiliation will welcome Trump back into office with open arms and cheer as he orders the public executions of all his political opponents and the deep state operatives who control them.

I have heard this exact argument dozens of times.

Oh by the way, Georgia purging their voter rolls (again) somehow proves that Trump won in Georgia.

Full Twitter thread.

Why, oh, why did I think it was a good idea to click on that twitter thread. The HoRRoR!

Georgia can't purge someone off their voting rolls until they don't participate in two general elections.

That means those 100K couldn't have swung the election to Trump because they didn't vote in 2020.

And they weren't purged last year because federal law prohibits removing voters from state rolls during general election years due to federal mandates before federal elections.

Yeah. The implication they're making is also that they voted in 2020, but shouldn't have.

I've gotten over 80 responses to my comment there, nearly all from Trump supporters still trying to deny reality.

I thought @CraigFl67013934 made some interesting points.

I'm that asshole who replies to people and then blocks them so they can't respond back. I get a certain amount of perverse pleasure from it.
