theokkindofpossessed asked: It would be easier to recall all the times Fox told the truth than the times Fox lied. I remember when they were the type of newscasters that reported a very misleading and outright false story in relation to one of my neighbors and would use the same "story" again, 6 years later, pretending it was new. Their trustworthiness has only gotten worse.

timetoputonashow asked: Another distinction: The Daily Show and The Colbert Report air on a channel literally called "Comedy Central." I'm pretty sure they are preceded by a show where an asshole comedian makes dick jokes about YouTube videos. Fox News anchors are on a NEWS NETWORK. A 24-hour television channel dedicated to providing NEWS AND INFORMATION to the public. *They* have a responsibility as...
counting-b0dies-like-sheep asked: "prove that fox is bs" Lmfao, how about you just turn on their fucking news channel and watch Bill O'Reilly or Glenn Beck for five minutes. They both shit more out of their mouths than their asses, I swear.
Anonymous asked: If they were holding you to the same standard that they hold fox news, they wouldn't be asking you to prove anything.
Anonymous asked: prove it. prove that fox is bs.
Anonymous asked: I kind of agree with you, but I'm not sure how a bias can be based on common sense and facts. So I'm not sure they are biased. (I'm not that other anon btw, I know how to spell "liberal" lol)
Anonymous asked: The times that they do take jabs at libers and atheists is far less than the amount of times they "poke fun" at Fox News. that shows there bias

Anonymous asked: Are The Colbert Report and The Daily Show any good? It sounds like pure liberal bias to me.
wolfennights asked: My mom watches Fox News, listens to Sean Hannity, and believes that "you choose your attitude and perceptions." and says I'm being confrontational anytime I disagree with her. It's funny that she would be against universal health care when I have loads of health problems.

-Spend your entire break waiting in line for food. No time to eat it.
-Start the late shift, no parking left. Spend 15 min break finding and moving your car. Still no time to eat.
-Computer straining your eyes. Make up time spent going to doctors.
-Read extensive email explaining new call center rules. Asked why you’re not on phone. Then reminded to read emails.
-Encourages diversity....
wolfennights asked: Why do conservatives/republicans hate "Obamacare" so much? My parents say they hate it because it's another form of "entitlement" for the general population and that it would mean our family would have to pay even more in taxes.

"But not all white people are like that"
Dear White people;
Ok, I get it. There’s some asshole white people doing asshole things to POC and people are angry at them for being assholes and your natural first reaction may be to make sure you’re not lumped in with them. So you say, “But not all white people are like that.” That’s not helping anyone and it kinda reeks of “reverse racism syndrome”.

Unrelated to atheism. From the good people of Reddit.
Now, I didn’t feel like making my millionths Reddit account, so I’ll just say something here.

Rick Santorum wins the presidency. The House retains it’s current Republican majority status. The Senate loses Democrat control and Tea Party Republicans take over.

You do not empower women by blaming the victim.
[TW FOR RAPE, RAPE CULTURE, VICTIM BLAMING ETC]
So some coworkers of mine today at work got into a discussion of Kobe Bryant allegedly raping a woman. One coworker thought it was suspicious that the charges were dropped. Another thought it was interesting that there was no settlement. Another argued that he wouldn’t have done that and risk his career, especially if he has so much sex...
Anonymous asked: To me, it seems to be the problem with people who make rape jokes is that they don't understand how serious rape is. They don't understand why it's wrong or why it is traumatizing or why it shouldn't be joked about. What are your thoughts on this? How do we get people to understand the seriousness of rape?
Anonymous asked: I think a lot of it goes down to, like everything else, personal experience. I grew up where abstinence-only education is the /only/ sex-ed that happens in school. As a result, as soon as myself or any of my brothers started dating, my mum made sure we had condoms and knew how to use them. I started sleeping with my boyfriend when I was...15? There abouts. I don't remember feeling pressured...
thatkarmakid asked: I had such a STFU moment today. In the same class I had a guy tell me that all democrats hate America and a girl started talking about abortion and how "they're cut out and the baby's head is beaten in and that they happen even in the 3rd trimester". I tried to tell her she was wrong and then she said "Haven't you seen the pictures?" I proceeded to get up and...
name-em-shame-em asked: All of these "okay, maybe there are a couple 13 year olds ready but most aren't!" posts really just highlight what's so wrong with how sex is taught in America. We act as though there is a magic time when people are ready. Sex is a truly personal experience. Some people are ready earlier. I think a 14 yr old who knows how to protect herself is more ready than a 25 yr old who...
Anonymous asked: As one of those girls who really did have a period at ten, I wasn't ready at 13/14 and neither was anyone I knew at that time. I can believe that the occasional extraordinary teen might actually be ready at that time, but I feel like no kid that age can actually understand the risks of sex, how to have sex safely, or how to really communicate with a partner on the level required for sex at...
