weird misinformation?

if you actually read any biography or even wikipedia article you will find a whole host of reasons including healing miracles, exorcisms, and completely non-miraculous things like founding monastaries and writings that also played a role in his sainthood.

so your citation, while true, is just drastically misleading by implying this colander thing was somehow the only reason the dude gets to be saint. in the end i even agree with your rhetorical goals, but there’s no need to lie to get there? i’m not even a theological scholar i just… know how to read wikipedia.

cc @the_crotch@sh.itjust.works

they are pasting that comment everywhere i doubt there was any personal motivation behind it lmao

you are SO c/lostlemmyers my friend

bwahaha merry christmas 😆

a Black man earning 8 cents an hour flipping burgers separated from his family for most of the rest of his life because he was caught with drugs once under Reagan’s racist policy reading this: oh hell yeah i find this to be totally fair

get real.

“literally unironically”

u gotta pick one homie. we were literally unironically worshipping beans and jeans here just a matter of months ago.

that’s why i worship oil and medicine execs, they have never hurt or killed anyone with their hands and they help make the world go round!

on a personal level this is hella cringe but from a social perspective i love this so much

My understanding is that this is contentious, and some scholars believe that the invasion was truly done to expand territory (not an uncommon theme in world history) and/or that the hierarchal system in Tibet, while inequitable, was hardly comparable to the Western model of slavery. So just be careful I guess?

also… “focus”? iirc it was like 2-3 tweets so… idk if we can give him that much credit

I didn’t laugh at Kanye till he came out as a Nazi. Even when he had his MAGA hat on he was supporting i.e. Colin Kaepernick and 13th Amendment changes and that was pretty cool despite the other loser behavior. Also: Bernie Sanders certainly has focused on the 13th amendment.

you’re fine with a system that has the same look smell taste violent and racist enforcement and oppressive outcomes as slavery. you’re fine with slavery. sorry babes.

so quit ur job lmao??? incredible that you are able to be so eloquent with how you are abusing people in your work and display no remorse? (hope this is a joke if it is no hate)

Thanks for the correction!

Getting upset over a minor critique of the status quo-upholding elements within liberalism is, ironically, a very liberal thing to do.

getting into a logical argument over a figure of speech idomatic expression is such a lemmy thing to do~~

I love that you snarked your way into understanding what they were saying
