People calling things out as cultural appropriation are racist.
If you're saying that only certain races can eat a certain food, wear certain cloths, have certain hairstyles what you are advocating for is racial segregation.

That was done before and most people can agree it was a bad idea.

Autotune is the worst thing that has ever happened to music. Talentless people make mediocre "fast food" music. Shaky cam is a crime against movies and series. You get the feeling that the actors don't have to be so talented and the sets are on a small budget when the picture sways as if the cameraman/women has bad delirium.

If I was the mayor of my little town, I'd have secret town ordinances made up every so often - random, silly ones - that nobody knows, and if you violate that ordinance you get a prize rather than a punishment. You know, like using the secret word on a game show.

I have so many ideas for those right now.

It sure seems to me that the u.s politicians that are all about the 2nd amendment are actively working on making this country more dangerous. The daranged man in California used a mac-10. A freaky mac -10. You dont use that to hunt. What the hell are we doing here? Im all for hunting but this is completely insane. No arguement is valid to support keeping the weapons out there.

If someone believes in a religion, people need to be respectful of it. If someone is using their religion as a means to hurt others, chances are the message of the religion has been twisted and the person's actions are inpired by themselves. So criticize the actions of the person. Not the religion.

If religious people need to be respectful of people who choose not to believe, it must work the other way too.

To those who say, "religion has caused so much conflict", I say I agree. But religion itself did nothing. It is a dangerous interpretation of it that likely led to conflict. And besides, even if religions never existed, people would have just found some other reason to fight and kill.

So many times across this site I find such a deep hatred for religion, people just being nasty for almost no reason. My heart aches for all the people who have been pained in a way that they want to stay away from religion. Too many people use religon for personal gain rather than to uphold most of the common values of serving and helping others. This is what drives people away.

But there are still those of us who are trying to uphold those values. Those of us who are trying to uphold the values of honesty, humility, and integrity. The value of helping one another. The value of "there is no compulsion in religion". Values that have been muddled for so long that people forget they exist. And it really is disheartening and discouraging when you see all your efforts to mend the broken image of religion do down the drain when the other person just isn't ready to understand, and take any chance to take a jab at religion more than is due.

As a female, I think some others have taken feminism WAYY too far.

Like women always telling men “Count your days” “We don’t need you”
“All men _____”
Just stop. The people who do that are worse than how they say women are treated.
I’m all for EQUALITY, but not female supremacy. Or male supremacy. Or anyone else supremacy unless it is a very lovable animal that is a good boy/girl.
For the earth to keep populating, we need both men and women. We both have it hard.

Ok, so my best frineds little sister was talking about how her cat got her hindlegs ran over and her father had "No choice" but to shoot her.
Yea, I know people see it other ways and all, but for real, if a HUMANS legs got ran over, would you shoot them? Probably not, right? But if it's an ANIMAL it's injuries means it's not allowed to live? Like, help it and give it a chance to live, don't just deam it as just an "animal" and kill it because it's hurt. But, yea. That's my hot take for today :P

People need to be allowed to say what they want even if it's offensive. HOWEVER, that doesn't mean you get to be protected from social opprobrium. Now, this specific post is about "hot takes". Apparently people here don't know what these are. Most of the posts are standard views shared on BP. The only hot take here is the one about shooting feral cats. The rest are pretty standard, or troll posts. People the post was about you giving your hot take. It was not about getting points for approval. What's the point of getting people to give their hot takes and then they get taken down by downvotes??

Here's a controversial one:
Women don't get @bortions because they don't want the baby. They get them because it's easier to hide. It's easier than dealing with the stares and comments from others when you tell them you're putting it up for adoption.

I would argue and say that every woman is different and their decisions are their own but the real reasons why women get abortions are: the pregnancy is medically unsafe for the woman, the fetus is non viable, mother and father or just mother is unable to provide whether that be financially or emotionally, OR SHE JUST DOESN'T WANT TO BE A MOTHER. Adoption is not always the better alternative. Especially when the foster care system is so horrendous and many kids are still waiting to be adopted.

...or they just don't want to put it in a system that actively fights against it, to go through life wondering why it was not wanted and possibly not understanding its culture, heritage, or even family history? among other reasons of course

Maybe woman doesn't want to go through pregnancy or the woman already has several children and then how do you tell them that they won't get a new brother/sister but it will be given away. Everyone's situation is so individual.

Most women getting abortions already have children. Can you imagine telling your kids you are giving their sibling up for adoption? Or, their partner is abusive and would use the child to manipulate her into keeping it. Forcing a rape victim to call it rape in order to get the abortion can put her in danger from the rapist. Or it wasn't rape but her parents are abusive. And if someone doesn't want the baby they may not't take care of it, even if adopting is the plan. If someone doesn't want to be a mother, they will be a good mother if forced. If a woman has mental health issues she will not make a good mother. If someone is experiencing mental health issues while pregnant it has permanent effects on the fetuses neurobiology that causes behavioral issues for life. Any rational argument against abortion i have missed?
