The second clip he goes over in this video demonstrates this perfectly. Instant retraction. Instant conforming. She didn't even blink.

Meanwhile, never married women lean dem 72% to 24%. It's right there in the data.

The plot thickens ...

** BREAKING: SCOTUS lets abortion pill mail delivery continue **

May 14 (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday allowed the abortion pill to be prescribed through telemedicine and dispensed by mail, restoring for now a 2023 federal rule challenged by Republican-governed Louisiana that had made access to the medication easier.

The justices granted requests by two manufacturers of the abortion pill, called mifepristone, to lift a lower court's block on the rule that was issued by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration during Democratic former President Joe Biden's administration, while the legal challenge plays out.

#6 Coriolanus once again shows his hatred for Jews by making a ridiculous statement.

Yes, Denise Powell (D) won the Democratic 2nd CD primary in Nebraska.

Denise Powell Is Your Winner

When we wrote up the Nebraska election results yesterday, the outcome of the Democratic primary in the D+3 NE-02"the district being vacated by Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE)"was unknown. With 89% of the vote in, businesswoman and activist Denise Powell had 38.9% of the vote to 36.8% for state Sen. John Cavanaugh. We guessed that Powell would hold on to win, as there was no plausible theory for why the final 10% might break 4-to-1 for Cavanaugh, but that was just a guess.

It would seem we were on to something, though. Now that 95%+ of the ballots have been counted, the total is... 38.9% of the vote for Powell, as compared to 36.8% for Cavanaugh. So, things did not budge one bit. There's no way to make up a 2-point gap with less than 5% of the vote still out, and so Powell will indeed be the nominee.

Powell will now face off against Brinker Harding (R). He sounds like a character in a Charles Dickens novel, but he's actually an Omaha city councilman and 4th-generation Nebraskan.

He is running on a platform of slashing the federal budget and owning the libs. If he gets sent to Washington, one of those two things will go right out the window. The only poll of the race, which is very old, had Powell leading Harding by 5 points. That's not a great data point, but the blue lean of the district, the national climate, and our sense that Harding is not a great fit lead us to conclude that Powell is the favorite here. This is the kind of seat the Democrats simply must flip to retake the House, so both parties will certainly spend big on this one. (Z)

Sounds to me like you prefer the Republican, Brinker Harding.

Is that right, Coriolanus?

You prefer Trump/MAGA/Republicans?

#27 Snoofy says, "Heck simply being the wrong flavor of Christian got you killed."

The Best God Joke Ever
by Emo Phillips

Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, "Don't do it!" He said, "Nobody loves me." I said, "God loves you. Do you believe in God?"

He said, "Yes." I said, "Are you a Christian or a Jew?" He said, "A Christian." I said, "Me, too! Protestant or Catholic?" He said, "Protestant." I said, "Me, too! What franchise?" He said, "Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Baptist or Southern Baptist?" He said, "Northern Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist or Northern Liberal Baptist?"

He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region, or Northern Conservative Baptist Eastern Region?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region." I said, "Me, too!"

Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1879, or Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912." I said, "Die, heretic!" And I pushed him over.

"A 2018 study estimated that 55 million indigenous people died following the European conquest"

Entire continents had their indigenous cultures and people eradicated, never to exist again.
Atheists have never been able to pull off annoying of that scale or magnitude.
To be fair, to your point, they've only had the chance for a century or so.

Simply being an atheist was enough to get you killed. Heck simply being the wrong flavor of Christian got you killed.
How many people did the Christians kill in the history of Christianity, for rejecting their version of Christianity?
I asked the AI. It included The Holocaust, but not the Holodomor. Sorry if the formatting is jacked.

Estimates for the number of people killed in the name of Christianity, specifically for rejecting their version of the faith or through religiously motivated violence, vary widely depending on the scope of events included. A conservative subtotal based on explicit numerical ranges from historical events such as the Crusades, Inquisition, witch hunts, and forced conversions in the Americas and Africa is approximately 56 - 84 million deaths.
Key events and their estimated death tolls include:
The Taiping Rebellion: 20 - 30 million deaths, involving mass displacement and community destruction.
Religious wars in Europe: 6 - 12 million deaths, including famine, disease, and social collapse.
The Crusades: 1 - 3 million documented or estimated deaths, plus displacement and enslavement.
Charlemagne's wars of conversion: 100,000 - 200,000 deaths, along with forced conversions.
Hussite Wars: 100,000 - 200,000 deaths, devastating Bohemian society.
Peasant revolts and suppression: 100,000 - 200,000 deaths.
Suppressions of heretical movements: 200,000 - 1 million for the Albigensian Crusade alone, plus tens of thousands of Huguenots.
Forced conversions in Africa and Asia: 10 - 15 million deaths.
The Black Holocaust (Transatlantic Slave Trade): 12 - 15 million deaths, legitimized by papal bulls.
The Inquisition: 15,000 - 25,000 documented executions, with many more imprisoned or tortured.
Witch hunts: 40,000 - 60,000 documented deaths.
Jewish pogroms and anti-semitic policies: Tens of thousands of deaths, leading to expulsions and ghettoization.
Holocaust complicity: 6 million Jewish victims, with Christian anti-Semitism noted as a contributing factor.
