Matthew 25:35-40
35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
- Comment on Russia is at war with Britain and US is no longer a reliable ally, UK adviser says 2 weeks ago:
I’ve been around long enough that I recognize bad faith and fallacious arguments, pedantism, and particularly expressions of Danth’s Law and choose not to take the bait. I stay on message which was that it was obvious to the UK who their true and trustworthy friends were (for example Canada which joined the Second World War 9 days after its outbreak and sent young men to fight to stop the spread of fascism and defend Britain) and weren’t (for example the US which sat on its hands for 829 days while Europe burned) at it should be today. It should be horrifying (but not at all surprising) to the UK, and to the rest of the free world, to see that fascism has taken hold in the US.

829 days. Canada was there for 820 of those 829 days.
- Comment on Russia is at war with Britain and US is no longer a reliable ally, UK adviser says 2 weeks ago:
829 days.
- Comment on Russia is at war with Britain and US is no longer a reliable ally, UK adviser says 2 weeks ago:
For 829 days the US sat and watched.
- Comment on Russia is at war with Britain and US is no longer a reliable ally, UK adviser says 2 weeks ago:
Canada, 9 days.
US, 829 days.
For those 820 days the rest of the world, including Canada, was sending its young men to fight and die for freedom.
The US sat and watched.
- Comment on Russia is at war with Britain and US is no longer a reliable ally, UK adviser says 2 weeks ago:
Canada entered the was 9 days after it started. The US entered the war 820 days later.
Canada went and fought while the US sat and watched.

Cherry picked? 9 days versus 829 days. Cherry pick my ass.
- Comment on Russia is at war with Britain and US is no longer a reliable ally, UK adviser says 2 weeks ago:
Then why did it take 9 days?
- Comment on Russia is at war with Britain and US is no longer a reliable ally, UK adviser says 2 weeks ago:
Bombed into it.
- Comment on Russia is at war with Britain and US is no longer a reliable ally, UK adviser says 2 weeks ago:
Just a reminder that it took the US years to join the Second World War while the UK was pounded by the Nazis. Canada joined the war nine days after it began. Remember who your friends are. The US isn’t anyone’s friend but it’s own.

It’s called an ontological paradox.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
I disagree. If you made a change on 2000 you had already made it when whatever happened in 2025 happened. If you went back and killed Hitler in 1885 that had already happened in 1933 when Hitler was appointed Chancellor. What happened in 1885 didn’t change what happened in 1933. Maybe you killed the wrong person. Maybe history got wrong who Hitler was. Maybe Hitler assumed the identity of the dead infant and went on to be appointed Chancellor. The point is that whatever happened in 1935 happened after whatever happened in 1885.

Yes. There are many paths forward from any moment in time but only one path backwards. That means that to get to where you are right now whatever happened in the past has already happened and can’t be changed.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
If you don’t like something that happened to you today and go back to 2000 to change something that change that you made in 2000 had already occurred in 2000 when the thing that you didn’t like happened in 2025. What happened in 2025 happened after the change you made in 2000.

I don’t think that space time works like that.

If you left your phone in 1929 then you had already done it in the past today. Nothing changed.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
I think that it’s fairly settled theory that if you perceived it it happened. If you went back to the past and caused it not to happen then it wouldn’t have happened and you wouldn’t have perceived it. Basically, you can’t change what already happened because whatever you did in the past had already happened when you perceived and therefore nothing that you did changed anything.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
That’s not how time works. If you go back in time and kill Hitler Hitler already happened in your timeline so he’s going to happen again. You can’t change things that already happened in your past.
- Comment on Trump says a 25% tariff "must be paid by Apple" on iPhones not made in the US, says he told Tim Cook long ago that iPhones sold in the US must be made in the US 4 weeks ago:
This won’t hurt apple one bit. They will pass the cost on t to American consumers. This is a 25% tax on everyday Americans to pay for the billions of dollars of tax cuts for the rich.
- Comment on Trump says a 25% tariff "must be paid by Apple" on iPhones not made in the US, says he told Tim Cook long ago that iPhones sold in the US must be made in the US 4 weeks ago:
This isn’t about making Apple make iPhones in the US. This is a 25% tax on everyday Americans that the fascists will blame on Apple for not making iPhones in the US and use to give tax breaks to the rich. Trump and his cabal are reverse Robin Hooding the American people and 70 million of them are lining up to lick his boots for it.

- Comment on Describe conservatives with one picture 2 months ago:
I was permanently banned from r/conservative for pointing out the letter that claimed that the DOJ had found evidence of basics voter fraud in Georgia that contradicted the Republican Governor, Republican Secretary of State, Republican States Attorney General, and Republican election officials as well as the Republican Attorney General, and the DOJ itself was written by a Trumpist shill.
I wish I could get flare for that.
Don’t speak truth intuitive the echo bunker.

I that why neo-fascist women are so fucking miserable?
As a socialist pussy eater I don’t feel any need to walk around waving my masculinity at people. Maybe the real issue is that the neo-fascist non-pussy eaters have such delicate masculinity that they’re afraid to do anything that might hurt it.
Left wing babes are welcome to sit on my face any time. I’m willing to take the risk.
