Listen, I'm not bright, but even I was taught correlation does not equate causation when I was like 12

It's not even correlation, you would have to literally forget Western countries exist to even believe this; Australia, America (I don't imagine the founding invaders were circumcised), and other settler colonies that aren't Israel were violently founded by people who don't believe in circumcision. Never mind that British brutality in India is still within living memory, or British brutality in Ireland, or settler colonial violence in South Africa and Rhodesia, put aside the horrors Western Europe inflicted on itself during WW2; no, you also have the holocaust perpetrated by Belgium against the Congolese.

Instead, because the news keeps inundating us never endingly about specific parts of the world: today and in that part of the world these are the only places that exist, no other place or history exists at all.

badposting is a comm where you post badly


This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.

Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?


Rules:

  1. Do not post good posts.
    • Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
    • Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
  2. This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
  3. This rule intentionally left blank.
  4. If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.

Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo
