      THANK YOU because I have bitches try to tell me that he isn’t hot! Zohran is hot, and his wife literally looks like the subject of a Mediterranean fresco! They are such an attractive couple

        he’s not, like, aggressively attractive, but i feel like that just makes it even better? He’s balancing perfectly on the edge of being hot but also looking like an average schlub, so he’s still relatable and approachable.

        This means we need another Wolfenstein game soon as it triggers them to get all butthurt that people can kill Nazis in video games.

          this might be fake news but i read somewhere that consuming media that portrays violence against oppression actually encourages complacency as the desire for justice is quelled by consuming the media? idk how i would find that if it’s a real study tho

    AFAIK these religions(so Islam and Judaism in this case) don’t usually care about what non-believers eat, only believers are not allowed to eat pigs. So posting that does not even qualify as ragebait.

      yeah but here’s the thing: the right doesn’t merely take joy in other people’s anger and suffering, it takes joy in the idea of it. That’s why Right wing “Comedy” is just “x minority are stupid and bad” and why their audiences lap them up. They’re not laughing at the worlds, they’re laughing at the idea of people they hate being upset or suffering.

      They think that upsets people, and that’s where they derive humour from.

      Yeah, it is a prohibition on willingly eating pork. But to Islamaphobes this gets twisted into some belief that any presence, contact, or image of pork products hurts and condemns Muslims (I have heard this referred to as “Christian Ham Magic”, which I think is a good term for it). Like how soldiers were claiming they dip their bullets in bacon grease so that if they kill a Muslim with them, they would, by “Muslim” belief, go to hell.

      yeah, and most of those rules came about because pork was likely to contain parasites and was overall more dangerous. people interpreted getting sick because of unsafe food as being punished by god

        i’ve heard this before and it makes no sense, are we just assuming ancient muslims would eat pork sashimi? You’re not gonna get parasites if you cook stuff thoroughly

    Relevant to note you can apply the same curing and smoking process to pretty much any other meat, not just pork. (I actually prepared beef bacon at home once. It tastes different but equally delicious.)
