    Did you watch the video?

    Republicans gave Netanyahu a standing ovation.

    Dozens of Democrats abstained, the ones who attended remained seated, and Rashida Tlaib held up a sign that said “war criminal.”

          I find it hilarious whenever I call them that they start wailing about homophobia, lol. Nobody insulted Eva Braun for sucking some guy off, the problem was that it was literally Hitler.

          Sucking removed is a fantastic thing to do for your fellow human, and a true friend loves and appreciates you for it.

          But sucking the removeds of dictators, that’s something sensible people everywhere disapprove of. Pretty much every dictator has awful anti-LGBT+ rhetoric and inhumane anti-LGBT+ policies.

            Don’t be dense. The poster above me was using “removedsucker” as an insult, which is a go-to homophobic insult, and I called it out. There’s no nuance or subtlety or dictionary lawyering that perfectly clearly expressed sentiment into being anything other than what it is.

              Yes, but is there anything in what I said that you actually disagree with?

              See, I think we agree, it’s just that I’m being more light hearted about it than you are. Good cop, bad cop, that sort of thing. You’re all “you’re nasty homophobe!” and I’m all “heyy, man, you should appreciate the blow jobs, not hate on them! But blow jobs are not for dictators.”

                “it’s just a joke! i’m just joking! you need to lighten up!”

                I never actually called you or anybody else a nasty homophobe, I called out a single comment for expressing a casual homophobic sentiment.
