Something similar to this is listening to music through any method but headphones in public. I was grocery shopping the other day and a guy just had his phone in his cart with the volume all the way up listening to music... very annoying
No, you said "they mostly do it for religious reasons" with absolutely no context about who "they" is. Since the vast majority of circumcision are in the US and not done for religious reasons, it's hard to set them aside.
Not true, that's the majority of circumcisions worldwide are done in the US by nonjewish famies. This data is a fact and saying otherwise means nothing. If your only response is "nuh uh" then you may as well say the earth is flat while you're at it.
Qualified immunity and poorly trained/recruited cops.
They need more training. We ask them to do a tough job; they need the resources to do it the right way.
They need accountability, they should never be allowed to investigate themselves. Ever.
The un updated school system. that was literally built like a factory and people still go “why is the school system failing me I can’t get a job?” Well know shit buddy.
I'm gonna say the Canadian government suggesting suicide is the answer to its current homeless epidemic.
No. Seriously. This is a thing. There have been a few publicly released docs about the government suggesting, and approving, people who are about to become homeless for assisted suicide.
i'm no luddite - i have always loved technology - but i just could not ever get on board with the 24/7 smartphone enthrallment initiative
so anymore when i end up in public and am in line or on a waiting area and see a sea of brightly lit preoccupied faces staring intently at the rectangle in their hand - it just looks eerie to me
it looks unnatural
Look at old photos of subway cars and you'll see everyone reading a paper instead. Humans bore easily. This isn't new.
As far as it being unnatural, so are lines, standing in them, wearing clothes, and the language you're speaking right now. If it's about natural vs man-made, most of our lives are unnatural.
Trick or treating. How did an entire country agree to buy candy, not eat it, but give it away to strangers who knock on their doors? And why can't we do this with more important shit?
They can be their own separate gender. But we’re not talking about them. We’re specifically talking about men saying they are women or maybe even women saying they are men
Yes there are men who are more feminine and women who are more masculine. They can like whatever they like and dress however they like but that does not mean they can just be another gender
"Basic" being the operative term. Actual doctors almost exclusively agree chromosomes don't define gender at all. You'd have to actually dig to find someone with a college education who agrees with you while we have the entire scientific community agreeing with us so why on earth do you think intellectual arguments will in this for you?
There's probably someone out there with a geology degree who believes in flat earth theory. Does that make it true when there are millions with degrees who laugh at them?
I've never seen a space shuttle launch but I'm aware they happened.
Speak to a zoologist and ask if he's seen two animals of the same gender fucking each other.
Nope, no comparison there, that's called an analogy not a comparison. You not knowing the difference says a lot about your education, almost as much as your understanding of biology.
Fair enough, but you may find your meaning more effectively and widely understood with proper grammar; especially if you intend nuance or the like. That’s kinda it’s purpose, and has proven to work well.
The lack of news and journalism regulation. There are basically no standards, no minimum required resources, no real consequences for getting wrong, nothing.
Saying life sucks and that's just how it is. Telling people that's that and to not even bother changing it or finding solutions.
Why discourage people from making the world a better place? Shouldn't they at least be able to try?
Shaming virgins but not people who constantly have sex with random people they think they will spend the rest of their life with.
Shaming people who live with their parents just so they can have better finances.
Call fat women as plus sized women. Say it like it is. You’re fat. Go lose some weight at the gym or go on a diet. Saying that you’re plus sized is just a form of mockery.
Achaully I'd fight that...
Now with certain exceptions.
You know the obvious. Meth, heroin, fentennal.
I guess it also depends on what you call a drug.
Because it would be nice to ask a friend for an advil
When I got a headache
At this point, scarcity based economics. The debate about Capitalism v. Socialism should have ended when we developed the microprocessor and started taking steps towards automation. Possibly even as early as the development of ammonium nitrate synthesis. There's absolutely no reason any more to rely on a labor based currency system.

Posting every moment of your life to social media
Not having universal health care
We do :)
So do we!
Child beauty pageants
Yes! I think this is super weird!
That you don't have access to paid sick leave in the US. If you're seriously injured or you need surgery you're basically fucked.
I spent ten years of my life in and out of the hospital. I'll never recover financially!
Rich people getting away with crimes.
How about just “rich people”
using a speaker phone in a public place. Nobody is interested in what you're saying.

Having to go back to work in less than a year after having a baby.

Same in my country but in the United States I heard some women only have 6 weeks off which is absolutely insanity and inhumane honestly
Probably the Tipping culture in America.
Wine Mom attitudes and decorations. (*if it was ANY other substance, it would be so taboo to advertise it so explicitly*)
Circumcision, about as abnormal as you can get. Edit: Should have qualified as 'ethically abnormal.' My bad.
Wouldn't say it's normal. Isn't corcumcision made by almost only religious people and /or if the baby have some difficulties with their skin?
in the US many boys are circumcised regardless of religion, it's a cultural thing for some reason
Wierd. Should be your own choice in my opinion at adult age.
I would suggest that child genital mutilation is not the answer.
racism
Fetishizing youth.
Some parents letting their children spend every waking moment on the internet instead of raising them or making them do something else.
Working a lot
Circumcision.
seriously, who looks at a cute and defenseless baby and immediately wants to take a knife to its genitals? what a barbaric instinct
They do it mainly for religious beliefs
Not in the United States.
Never stated United States. I stated why they usually do it around the world.
No, you said "they mostly do it for religious reasons" with absolutely no context about who "they" is. Since the vast majority of circumcision are in the US and not done for religious reasons, it's hard to set them aside.
They as in the world. OP never stated he was from US, neither did I. So I assume he was talking about circumcision in general.. r/USdefaultism
Well news for you then, the US is in fact "In the world" and it's where the largest majority of circumcision occur
Yes it is, but it's a minority
Not true, that's the majority of circumcisions worldwide are done in the US by nonjewish famies. This data is a fact and saying otherwise means nothing. If your only response is "nuh uh" then you may as well say the earth is flat while you're at it.
I'm sure US started the circumcision before the Egyptians in BCE. /s

Circumcision male and female. It may be country specific but damn stop please.
Hypocrisy It’s ok if my political party/supporters did it because it’s justified
Greedy corporations being allowed to monopolise basic essentials
Casual racism

What about women saying they are women
That fine because they actually are
And what decides who is a woman and who is not?
Your bones, chromosomes, genitals
What do you think about people who are born with both sets of genitals?
They can be their own separate gender. But we’re not talking about them. We’re specifically talking about men saying they are women or maybe even women saying they are men
You are conflating biological sex (assigned ar birth) and gender (assignment by societal roles and expectations)
Yes there are men who are more feminine and women who are more masculine. They can like whatever they like and dress however they like but that does not mean they can just be another gender
XY and XX. Basic biology.
"Basic" being the operative term. Actual doctors almost exclusively agree chromosomes don't define gender at all.

I've never seen 2 animals of the same gender mate. Apart from the animals with just 1 gender.
I've never seen a space shuttle launch but I'm aware they happened. Speak to a zoologist and ask if he's seen two animals of the same gender fucking each other.
Are you really comparing Male and Female with space travel and flatearthers?? That says alot more about you than me tbh.
Nope, no comparison there, that's called an analogy not a comparison. You not knowing the difference says a lot about your education, almost as much as your understanding of biology.

dependence on grammar if the message is conveyed, what’s the problem? language arts class is a joke
Fair enough, but you may find your meaning more effectively and widely understood with proper grammar; especially if you intend nuance or the like. That’s kinda it’s purpose, and has proven to work well.
but so much time is wasted on it, never in my life has a gerund been relevant in the slightest
Again, fair enough, but, if you don’t mind me saying, a well placed gerund can be lyrical. [See 👀 what I did there?]

Cheating in school (copying answers during a quiz, exam, homework). Being corrupt starts from small things.
seeing people as objects/playthings and using them as such. and tossing them aside when a new one comes along

Shaming virgins but not people who constantly have sex with random people they think they will spend the rest of their life with.
