I'm setting up this account while I see whether Twitter utterly implodes or not.

By that I mean that I've read all her novels at least once, but I also mean that I've read Pride and Prejudice over 30 times and will frequently quote it in situations where I find it applicable.<br>- Religiously I'm Christian, I guess what you would consider <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/exvangelical" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>exvangelical</span></a> as I have actively tried to analyze and deconstruct the worldview I was raised to have in order to create one that is more true to the values I currently hold<br>- I am anonymous online for my safety and that of the people around me<br>- I like doing <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/yoga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>yoga</span></a>, reading <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/terrypratchett" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>terrypratchett</span></a>, watching <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/breadtube" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>breadtube</span></a>, and occasionally baking. I can sew too, but I'm not great at it<br>- I'm starting to see why Twitter has a character limit.</p>
casey is remote<p>I'm freaking stunlocked by <a href="https://social.freetalklive.com/tags/breadtube" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>breadtube</span></a> mudslinging lol</p>
casey is remote<p>Hmm I'm watching 40 minutes into a <a href="https://social.freetalklive.com/tags/breadtube" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>breadtube</span></a> vid and I kinda wanna clap back on a point <a href="https://social.freetalklive.com/tags/NoahSamsen" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>NoahSamsen</span></a> is making...</p><p>He's claiming that <a href="https://social.freetalklive.com/tags/Vaush" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Vaush</span></a> should never have stated in a debate with <a href="https://social.freetalklive.com/tags/NonCompete" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>NonCompete</span></a> that Nazis claimed that Jewish control of the banks was bringing the country down, and that Jews did in fact own a majority of the banks, merely because that fact has been used as an antisemitic talking point.</p><p>I mean, facts are facts, it's different than using that fact to make a racist point. <a href="https://social.freetalklive.com/tags/Vaush" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Vaush</span></a> wasn't saying that the Jews were evil, nor that they were actually bringing the country down, he was just acknowledging that they did indeed control more banks than other groups did.</p><p>Furthermore, <a href="https://social.freetalklive.com/tags/NonCompete" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>NonCompete</span></a> fled to debate because his logic set him up to defend Nazism, and he was prepared to neither defend Nazis (understandable) nor abandon his logic (also understandable). See, he was stating that any group has the right to violently overthrow another group if they sensed they were being oppressed. Well, <a href="https://social.freetalklive.com/tags/Vaush" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Vaush</span></a> (very validly) was pointing out that he was wrong, because the Nazis perceived themselves as oppressed by Jewish bankers, and violently oppressed them in return.</p><p>What <a href="https://social.freetalklive.com/tags/NoahSamsen" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>NoahSamsen</span></a> needs to understand is the difference between a fact and a point. I understand that antisemites say "ah, Jews control the banks" to excuse their hatred of Jews. But that doesn't mean that anyone who points out that Jews own more banks than other groups also hates Jews. That's a parts-to-whole fallacy and keeps well-meaning people from accepting aspects of reality.</p>
casey is remote<p>I would watch more <a href="https://social.freetalklive.com/tags/breadtube" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>breadtube</span></a> but good gosh why are a their videos an hour long</p>
