this is an amazing study in how to go carefully, point-by-point, through something, and refute none of it.

in south africa they’ll murder racists like you for free 😉

“more diversity” includes people whose entire lives are politicized, so you have to pick between “more diversity” and “less politics”, you cannot have both

banning communists opens up space for fascism? whoever could have predicted! 🤯

fucking your neighbor’s pet cat is morally neutral

yeah this is turning out to be as wild as I expected

also already covered by rule #3

so you think all humans have rights to do any kinds of violent, invasive acts to any animal, as long as they call it a “veterinary procedure”? is there anything a human could do to an animal which you would classify as “rape”?

and getting a giant steel horn implanted in your forehead would be a cosmetic procedure, but i guess you’d be pretty upset if someone did it to you without asking?

artificial insemination would fit the legal definition of rape in several jurisdictions in the world if you did it to a human.

how do you think dairy cows are always pregnant if they’re not being forcibly impregnated 🤔🤔

if you eat or drink any dairy products then you have almost certainly paid a company to rape some animals for you.

I think you might be 180° missing the point of the meme

Sure, like any other wildly unethical job there’s a spectrum of different people’s privilege and ability to easily cut out to a less cartoonishly evil job – I would hold Person A with a background in cybersecurity and no dependants a lot more responsible for every day they remain a cop than Person B who joined police academy straight out of high school and is supporting 5 children etc.

But saying that Person B should be excluded from “fuck cops” – that is, that there should be an exception to the general cultural work of making it socially unacceptable to be part of a murderous, racist, unjust, reactionary paid army – is supporting the institution that you’re claiming to be against. Waiting until a complete societal transformation before campaigning for people to not take blood money (your euphemistic “consciousness price”) is valuing Person B’s economic solvency over the lives of the people they (or, being generous, just their colleagues) will harass, target, frame, and even kill.
