Two bastions of Athens liberal hipster ism are accused of racism.
Daly Co op and Cine accused of discrimination.
It’s so fricking pathetic that it isn’t even funny.
Liberalism is eating itself.

Real Spill will you accept my friendship?

I wouldn't be surprised if it's true. Racism has always been around sadly.

That's deep shite, right there.
And who would have ever thought that racism could ever get as brutal as it is today. Where out of all the shitty self-absorbed artsy films shown at an athens hipster theatre, there aren't enough created by non-binary Ecuadorian cis gendered hermaphrodites as compared to the number of LGBTQD45hgdab-directed films.

This is not surprising with the identity politics crowd. Every other group is a perceived oppressor. Tribalism at its finest!

I like that Athens is a funky liberal college town, it is adorable.
When they start eating each other, it is sad to me.

This is utterly ridiculous, i cannot fathom how effed up our society will be in 20 years if this sort of bullshite escalates.

I’m with Peterson on this one. You have to give up your “oppressed” status if you’re a UGA student living in Athens. I have a hard time feeling sorry for students who have their tuition paid for by parents or lotto money.
They should visit Haiti or Venezuela.

For a sentence or two it seemed like the movie theatre chick was going to reveal some messed up racist shite that was going on behind closed doors at Cine and then it turns out they are racist because they won’t show Black Panther which is a major Marvel blockbuster playing 24-7 in every chain theatre in America... the exact kid of movie Cine would never play. Cine playing Black Panther (or Spider-Man, or The Avengers, any of that stuff) is like The Grit serving a cowboy ribeye. Calling that racism is a genuine disservice to fighting the actual racism that exists in Athens and every where else in America.
It seemed like there may have been some racially insensitive/ racist stuff happening to her and she devalues her argument by bringing up such petty non-issues like this.

My town just opened an abortion clinic and it’s astounding at how the locals have supported it in opposition to the old fart conservatives who have pitched a sitting area outside on the sidewalk with their “prayer” vigils to “dead babies.”
I love my town. So many hippie liberals keep this place fascinating.

Yes...you really haven’t arrived until you can conveniently kill unborn babies.

Yet... every foster home in the country is overrun by indigent unwanted children that are denied by the government for adoption by perfectly capable partnered gay couples. We surely live in a just society.

Every foster home is overpopulated because the government won’t let gays adopt? On top of that your solution is killing a baby? Are you fricking serious dude?
I don’t get in to political social issues very often, but this might be the dumbest shite I’ve read on the internet.

I think you read too far into what I said
I believe people have the right to free speech, but to picket an abortion clinic is a little wasteful of time, no? I’m not saying foster homes are overrun ONLY because the government wont allow gays to adopt but it’s an example of how ridiculous all of this is in general.

Like I said .... don’t read too far into what I typed on my iPhone. I do believe in free speech but picketing is pointless.

Abortion is legal.
Are you saying that gay couple adoption would make fewer abortions?
Like some mother says to herself “if only I could place this child in a good home, I wouldn’t terminate it”
The gay couple adoption issue has literally nothing to do with abortion.

There are a lot of shiny hooks in this thread but who cares....I have a cigar and bourbon to get through before bed.
Honestly I struggle with gay parent adoption. Not because of the proposed parents ...I have no problem with gay couples. The problem I have is putting a child in an environment that differs drastically from the traditional 2 parent model that evolution has proven to be successful over millennia as the best method to raise children into well rounded adults. I have the same concerns with single parent adoptions or children ripped up in divorces.
I know you don’t agree but I’m being honest here. And frankly, this would be a better solution than abortions - which especially if performed after very early stages of pregnancy is one of the most barbaric practices ever deceived by mankind IMO.

Has your opinion of abortion changed since you had kids?
