Poe's Law Thread

Anyway, I may be risking derailing the topic on that, but that is an example of how you can really use Poe's Law. Usually, people who think they are the "Caped Crusader" will believe whatever story fits into their fantasy dream-world.

Keep going Nick - you are one of the few honest politicians there are - take no notice of the bashers - just keep being who you are and your integrity will shine through. Better you in power than pure bullshitters who know they have no intention of carrying out their election promises.

The idea that in a free society absolutely everything should be open to debate has a detrimental effect on marginalised groups. Debating abortion as if its a topic to be mulled over and hypothesised on ignores the fact that this is not an abstract, academic issue. It may seem harmless for men like Stanley and O'Neil to debate how and if abortion hurts them; it’s clearly harder for people to see that their words and views might hurt women.

Access to abortion impacts the lives of women, trans and non-binary people every day, and the threat pro-life groups pose to our bodily autonomy is real, not rhetorical. If you don’t believe me, visit any abortion clinic and witness the sustained aggressions of pro-life pickets.

In organizing against this event, I did not stifle free speech. As a student, I asserted that it would make me feel threatened in my own university; as a woman, I objected to men telling me what I should be allowed to do with my own body.
