With the ever growing HEMA and reenactment scene, there are a bunch of really good forges/manufacturers putting out fantastic training equipment, replicas and custom work, sharp and blunt.
With our machining and material science I'd guess that a high end sword now would blow the originals out of the watee
Much safer now though. Traffic accidents are much less lethal nowadays (except SUV/Truck vs ped)
Yeah leaning on "tradition" or "conservation" when its just bigotry under the hood is a staple.
I hope my sarcasm was clear
Not really the same thing at all though is it?
Also bit of a weird constructed example. A faith like that can only lead to it's followers taking offense or religious totalitarianism.
Which is not something I'd engage with so idk why i would tolerate something so intolerant.
The comparison is also kinda failing since one is a belief and the other isn't.
A more fitting comparison would be ostracising someone for their faith vs insisting to misgender someone despite better knowledge.
If you're trying to make an analogy here, that's incredibly short sighted.
Forcing religious values down other ppls throats is trying to dictate their life.
"forcing" aka asking to be referred to with certain pronouns is asking to have your own life respected.
One is about having your beliefs respected, the other is demanding others to act as if they were part of your faith no matter if they believe or care.
I don't mind them doing their thing at home, but I could do without them shoving their lifestyle in everybody's face in public.
Those were terrible!
Nowadays for me it's anything that doesnt have "horns" to grip or not enough space between them.
I stil main 360 controllers though i find them a tad too small/cramped
Self reports are going strong lately for european fascists. Hope more follow suit
So my solution would be to make a dedicated account, purchase a license on there, and hand it over completely to someone in charge at the facility.
If they don't have someone who can take care of that for whatever reason, still make a dedicated account and restict apps/access rights via parental controls etc
Incredible work
True art
I am moved
Of course not, what makes you think anything i said is even vaguely related to those negative cherry picks?
Is car manufacturing and design not tech?
Do impact detection, brake assist/auto brake, modern lane assist, distance detection etc not add to safety? I could probably rattle on
