Why does free speech only go one way? If there weren’t comments from religious people sharing their viewpoint, atheists would have nothing to respond to.

I’m pretty sure there was one in my city when I was a kid, but we’re talking 30 years ago 🤷♂️
I think in order for it to be cancel culture I have to refuse to spend money on it. We should all be legally required to spend money on things conservatives love. That way we can make sure there’s no woke residue.
Oh no, I’m not falling for that again!
That’s what I do anytime some MAGA relative starts whining about something on Boomerbook: “is this that cancel culture I’ve been hearing so much about?”
Where the fuck can you still find a Fuddruckers?!
Now I need a Wikihow on what makes boycotting Bud Light different from “cancel culture”
I kinda wish the government would recognize their sovereignty, and make them pass through customs every time they leave their property, cut off their public utilities, make them apply for a work visa…you know, give them the full experience.
That’s not a bad idea. There’s actually a Unitarian church about two miles from my house. Last time I drove by there was a MAGA across the street shouting into a bullhorn, so that should at least make it interesting.
I’ve had this same question a hundred times. Seems like a lot of people find a sense of community in church, but I’m non-religious and I haven’t found a replacement.
If you claim 17 children as deductions, you’ll probably get audited. If you claim a new Ferrari as a business expense deduction, you’ll probably get audited. The IRS is not some evil omnipresent overlord looking to lock you into a life of servitude, and the people trying to convince you of that are: 1) very wealthy people trying to avoid paying taxes, and 2) the actual people trying to lock you into a life of servitude.
They audit you, and you provide proof of what deductions you qualify for. If you say you paid $10,000 for child care, and you have paperwork from the daycare to prove it, then you’re good. If you said you paid $10,000 for child care and it turns out you don’t have any children, you’re kinda fucked. Same goes for things like charitable donations. The IRS has no idea that you donated to a cancer charity unless you claim it as a deduction. If they audit you, you’d better have proof of the donation.
They don’t, though. The IRS doesn’t know where your kids go to daycare, or how much you’re paying for it, until you claim it as a deduction on your taxes.
I think a lot of people would have serious reservations about every aspect of their life being instantly and automatically added to a central government database. Yeah, pretty much everything you do is recorded by some government agency somewhere, but ONE agency knowing everything about everyone sounds like a privacy nightmare. Hackers breach ONE system and suddenly everything is out.
If it weren’t for credits and deductions filing taxes would be easy. It’s the tax breaks that make it complicated. I can’t imagine the amount of extra personnel the IRS would need in order to track and account for every tax break a couple hundred million people qualify for.
I spent the early 2000s playing Star Trek: Armada and Voyager: Elite Force. Pretty sure you can get them on GoG if you’re looking for nostalgia and a good night of gaming.
That’s a Meijer
Good news, everyone!
“Right to leech” is more accurate, but harder to sell
