I actively disliked bacon looong before going vegan. It smells bad and the amount of fat that renders out when you cook it is just plain uncanny. Why is it never a high-quality french Jambon or Prosciutto with those people?

[-] Throskie@midwest.social 7 points 5 days ago

They can't spell those words, for starters.

Because along with hating minorities, foreigners, and the LGBTQ community, there are few people American nationalists hate more than The French.

[-] Gladaed@feddit.org 3 points 6 days ago

You shouldn't render out all the fat of your bacon. Keep it in there!

Also fuck Off with reduced fat anything. If you give me fat less bacon the cooking will not work unless I put some other fat in.

[-] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 4 points 6 days ago

I will get the fat into my system no matter what. If i don't sweat on the toilet, what's the point of being alive.

I'm delicious! (Fat IS flavour right?)

So they're calling themselves pigs?! Doesn't really seem like the own they believe it is.

They think it works that way because that's the way it works for them.

Show them a picture of Mecca and they freak right the fuck out.

meanwhile they cry a tantrum when Starbucks uses red cups.

they are the most fragile people on the planet

The War on Christmas is absolutely real and it is the height of ignorance to pretend otherwise. To be crystal clear Christmas is the 12 day season between 12/25 and 1/6. Anyone complaining about people not saying "Merry Christmas" outside of 12/25-1/6 is talking about the wrong season.

Advent starts with the first of four Sundays before Christmas day. This is typically after American thanksgiving has taken place and is the actual season that is going on when people complain about "The War on Christmas". The proper greeting for this season will refer to Advent and not Christmas because 12/1-12/23 is not Christmas.

To sum up there is a War on Christmas and the aggressors are the ones bitching about people not saying Merry Christmas during Advent.

sometimes I see Christmas decorations in November!!!

i saw stores putting a Christmas section, then taking it down for Halloween, then putting the Christmas section back.

Christmas must respect the Halloween borders!

[-] QuoVadisHomines@sh.itjust.works 9 points 6 days ago

Halloween? When I was a kid it started after Thanksgiving! We wore onions on our belts which was the style at the time...

Or talk about how you're eating less meat/became vegan and they'll act like you're demanding them to become vegan too.

[-] Masamune@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

I once told someone I enjoy eating meat. Later they caught me eating tofu, because I enjoy eating that too. It was fun watching them implode!

[-] DigitalAudio@sopuli.xyz 3 points 5 days ago

Their minds explode the moment they visit Japan, one of the least vegan friendly countries and simultaneously one of the most tofu loving ones

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

People clutching their ears and writhing in pain the moment they find out you're trying to cut back on eating meat is always such a bizarre response.

Imagine doing this to anyone going on a diet. Screaming and thrashing and trying to shield yourself with a fist full of candy bars the moment you hear "I'm cutting sweets out until I lose 10 lbs"

[-] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 4 points 6 days ago

Sorry i don't eat meat.

I NEED MY PROTEIN, I'M ALLERGIC TO VEGETEBLES, I GET ALLY MEAT FROM A GUY WHO TREATS HIS ANIMALS VERY WELL AND THEY LOVE BEING EATEN.

Okay.

[-] unphazed@lemmy.world 33 points 6 days ago

Ah yes, Christian Nationalist attacks on other Abrahamic religions. How's that poly blend mask fitting these days?

[-] brotundspiele@sh.itjust.works 20 points 6 days ago
[-] irmadlad@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

Do these people who claim to be Christian even know their beloved book?

Very, very few. It's really frustrating when talking to them because of their ignorance of their own operations manual. As an agnostic, I'm embarrassed for them. I took the time to read it many many many times along with the Mormon text, Hindu religions, Janeism, Buddhism, etc and about 3 years ago I finally finished the English translation of the Quran. They can't seem to handle one book.

And I do not say these things from any moral high ground or superiority. However, if you come to my door and tell me I'm going to eternal damnation because I do not believe in the same way they do, their book, and their god, then they better bring their A game.

America was founded by people fleeing religious persecution from the government installed in their homeland, official Church. They left us two principals to live by. Freedom of religion....that's them, and most importantly, freedom from religion, that's me.IMHO we can all coexist given 3 criteria are strictly met:

  • Lawful: that's obvious
  • Peaceful: Another obvious
  • Stays out of my politics: One not so very obvious to a lot of people. That is by design. When ever you have a religiously dominated government, it always, always, always turns out bad.

Bacon is to Muslims as Broccoli is to a White Nationalist.

[-] some_kind_of_guy@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

I travel around my (deep purple) state with a satchel of various brassicas. Going out of the house in this area without a curated collection of cruciferous comestibles would be like going into a hot war without merely a sidearm.

  • Everyone knows that any green thing can ward off the common MAGA chud, but many are unaware that so-called "enlightened" centrists are actually attracted to broccoli. Don't be fooled. For them, you must brandish brussels sprouts - preferably still attached to a long stalk. Then, launch into a cooking lesson, but do NOT DETACH OR BOIL THE SPROUTS. You will have your quarry at the first hint of Maillard's reaction, and they will either join your cause or become total hermits.
  • Liberals will claim to favor kale, but I've had success presenting them with multiple diverse varietials while explaining that "Lacinato" and "Dinosaur" are both equally accurate and acceptable terms when used to refer to the bumpy, dark green kind. Your utter indifference to - and rejection of - their "correct" preference will eventually send them into a blind, self-destructive rage - if you're patient and hold the line. Just be sure to stand outside their blast radius when they finally go.
  • You must be creative and self-assured when it comes to libertarians, but try showing off a fresh romanesco cauliflower while delivering a long-winded (but efficient) diatribe in which you logically interweave fractals, calculus, coastlines, cacti, psychedelics and concepts of cognitive sovereignty. Once they sense that you have more than a surface-level understanding of these topics, and genuinely care about how they each relate to objective, consensus reality, they pathetically slink away like old goats, having fired not a single round of reloaded ammunition out of their bespoke 3d-printed handgun.

Good luck out there!

10/10. Would read again.

Variation of bone apple tea.

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 14 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Except bone apple tea is self aware. Good chance bone-petite isn’t.

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 days ago

"Small bone"

Poor guy thought he was on pornhub

[-] inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Dude probably has a little too much pornhub on his mind.

[-] bountygiver@lemmy.ml 6 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

It's always some kind of projection, these are the people who get triggered by the mere existence of LBGTQ people.

They legitimately think their reaction is normal so these posts would trigger the muslims too.

[-] EtAl@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 6 days ago

I just feel sorry for the Kirk family. They name their kid James, and he ends up a bigot.

we still have 203 years before the real James T Kirk is born. so we're safe

This isn't racism. Religious bigotry for sure but racism doesn't apply when there are people of all races that are muslim.

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

oh my god yes it is. i love it when people pretend that racist motherfuckers have nuanced takes like that. no it is racist, they don't know the difference, they don't even know what being muslim even entails, and they don't attack white muslims, or all kinds of other religions for a reason. they hate brown people.

[-] shai_hulud@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

I think the point is that this trash thinks it's racism even though it's not. They want it to be racism because fuck brown people.

A simple two-word reply would ruin these racists without needing to visit the shops: "Happy holidays!"
