Where indica simply refers to the plant’s first collection (by Lamarck) in India and sativa means cultivated in Latin. Loads of plants have some conjugation of this species name:
I hold radical gender beliefs, I believe that trans women are women, trans men are men, and women and men should have equal rights while simultaneously yelling kawabunga.
Oh I am extreme on those things too. Extremely supportive. Aggressively so. If you try to fuck with that stuff, I'll fuck with you. And not in the hip new slang meaning.
I get that. I still might advise against advertising that you're looking for racial/migrant extremists on your Tinder profile, but I don't mean to be in your business.
I wouldn't even deny that in a sense my views on "race" and gender are extremist, even if my first thought was the same.
Like, "it doesn't matter people are individuals" is pretty much by definition on the extreme end.
(Well there's also "it sadly did matter in the past and even if we instantly stopped all racism and sexism the results will linger so we should see what we can do to get closer to actual equality faster" but that seems like a different axis, even if to conservatives it probably seems "more extreme")
I do love the American inclination to roll out a 250 year old piece of literature, stare down the barrel of a gun, and announce "You can't do that it's against the rules".
The Founding Fathers were violating provisions of the Constitution practically before the ink was dry.
But hey, maybe this is the moment when waving a big copy of the seven original commandments of Animal Farm and shouting "Four Legs are supposed to be good, actually!" will fix the problem.
I'd say he checks more boxes than he doesn't. Though arguably, "traditional American views on religion and morality" could mean believing in freedom of religion and not being full-on fascist. The only one he probably doesn't check is the one about "traditional Americans views on family".
Let's not pretend that this list isn't designed to target out-groups. The definition is going to be flexible to allow anyone they don't like to be guilty.
It's the same contradictions all the way down the list.
"anti-capitalism"
So anyone who supports the government directly and arbitrarily interfering with private businesses? Like Trump is doing constantly?
"anti-Christianity"
So, anyone opposed to helping the poor and needy? Anyone who doesn't treat foreigners with respect and kindness? Anyone who skipped over that whole "meek shall inherit the Earth" thing?
"support for the overthrow of the United States Government"
Conspiracy theory time, I think it's vague like that on purpose. It's like fucking horoscopes, written so you read what you want it to mean. It's preying on the poor reading skills of the illiterate, and half of American adults can't read at middle school level.
If that's a conspiracy theory, I guess I'm a conspiracy theorist now. "Terrorist" as context in legal wording carries a lot of weight, and can be used to bypass due process. When everyone is legally defined as a terrorist, the powers that be can make anyone, citizen or not, disappear at any given time without any public notation. I can't imagine any legitimate reason for this to be written as law the way it is, there is no "proper" place for a law worded like this to be used outside of a dictatorship.
basically, a homemaker wife making babies, also traditional straight male/female roles and identity(white is preferable), to these conservatives. women must not take leadership roles, or in roles that a man should be done.-conservatives.
I can at least understand what's being said by a few of these, but do we have an official, on the books, definition for what constitutes "extremist" views, or what "traditional American values" are in this context?
I'm guessing not, because I'm not sure they know what any of that actually looks like anymore.
They think they do, but they keep the wording vague in their official statements because these rules are not to preserve American culture or their way of life, it's all vibe based. I don't like you so let's see which of these vague statements I can attach to you so that you get in trouble that you literally cannot afford to get out of....
Exclusionist ideologies (nonadherents are less human) that seek universal acceptance and adoption. Christianity and Islam both have particularly imperialistic histories. Zionists seems to be trying to catch up now though.
Anti Christian is just the tip of the iceberg. Per Christian doctrine your soul is destined for damnation in hell if you don't accept Christ as the only path to salvation. Why would your life matter if you're going to hell anyways?
Lol no. That's what traitor trump is doing. They're attempting DARVO lmfao. Fuck this dumb list lol. It's a patriotic duty to oppose tyranny. If you support this dictator, you are a traitor.
I love how vague this is. Extremism on gender is entirely up to the reader to decide the definition. To some people 2 genders is extremist and hateful, to others anything except 2 genders is extremist and also somehow hateful.
Yes, with a heavy sprinkling of debunked race science ie. white supremacy.
Darwin, in his exposition of survival of the fittest, wrote "civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate and replace the savage races throughout the world"
Which was a culturally "normal" way of thinking in that part of the world at that time. Crazy that so much, and yet so little, has changed in 150 years.
I overheard my parents and brother talking about wanting to visit Mainland China, departing from the US where we live now, seemingly not worried about the return trip back to the US and having to deal with customs, and we aren't white, also on top of that, my brother is anti-CCP, and have talked about the Taiwan issue while parent's Wechat with microphone permissions are active.
Like... lmfao, they are gonna get fucked by two governments.
"When you are in power, I ask you for freedom, because that is according to your principles. When I am in power, I take away your freedom, because that is according to my principles" - Frank Herbert
*all one breath* AMERICA IS NOT AND HAS NEVER BEEN AN EXPLICITLY CHRISTIAN NATION, YOU CAN'T JUST COME IN HERE AND ACT LIKE ANYONE NOT CHRISTIAN ISN'T JUST DOING IT WRONG (like you've always done) BUT NOW IS ESSENTIALLY GUILTY OF TREASON, THAT IS NOT OKAY! *giant Kirby-level breath*
*Clarification: Directed at MAGA, of course, not this commenter
Yes this true but I'd like to provide one example in reference to Virginia's Casual Killing act of 1669.
This exempted slavers from facing felony charges for killing their slaves if they resisted punishment.
The scriptural basis of this is Exodus 21:20-21
If a man beats his slave to death—whether the slave is male or female—that man shall surely be punished. However, if the slave does not die for a couple of days, then the man shall not be punished—for the slave is his property.
Implying that you can indeed kill your slave as long as it doesn't happen immediately.
Now this was before the declaration of independence but drafting laws after scripture has a longstanding history in the US.
America may not explicitly be a Christian nation, but implicitly, there are far too many that strongly believe it is.
Jeesus. Is this from some sort of official statement / quote from the US or? Would love to share the OG source with some folks I know who are still trying to pretend it's not fascism 😓
"Anti-capitalism", right there, AND direct "hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on morality", if one takes American televangelists as paragons of American morality.
As a man, you get to choose between "I'm not gonna date you unless you're at least 6 foot, 6 inches, and make 6 figures" and "I'm not gonna date you unless you're willing to overthrow the US government for me".
Okay lady, but you better at least be willing to cook AND clean and your blowjob game best be out of this world.
Go outside, talk to woman like they're (believe it or not) real people.
I haven't met most women but I know this is nonsense. Some folk may have what can be seen as superficial preferences but even that is often a trauma response to scarcity or borne of arbitrary sociocultural pressures.
Be the kind of person that enriches the lives of those around you in a meaningful way. You'll see what people truly value when you do.
You and I have a very different idea of what "indica" implies.
For others, like me, who had no idea.
Where indica simply refers to the plant’s first collection (by Lamarck) in India and sativa means cultivated in Latin. Loads of plants have some conjugation of this species name:
Allium sativum (garlic)
Coriandrum sativum (coriander / cilantro)
Crocus sativus (saffron crocus)
Cucumis sativus (cucumber)
Eruca sativa (rocket / arugula)
TIL! Thanks for this
Wut
I believe it’s a UK name for arugula. They frequently express the same bafflement for cilantro.
2 species, you wouldnt call them strains if they are 2 different species.
I'm pretty sure the original text had it spelled "indicia"
In the land of the rapists, the woman with a whistle is the criminal
Other than extremism on migration, race, or gender I’m proudly all those things.
I hope the US government can be overthrown and their extremism on migration, race, and gender can be ended
I assume I'm all of these things since they probably consider being in favor of trans rights as gender extremism.
Extremism for migration and race probably hinges on whether you believe in due process
I hold radical gender beliefs, I believe that trans women are women, trans men are men, and women and men should have equal rights while simultaneously yelling kawabunga.
Disgusting! "Kawabunga" is their word.
Bullshit. You probably hold normal people views on those topics, rather than the negative IQ views that the GQP has. You fucking extremist /s
Oh I am extreme on those things too. Extremely supportive. Aggressively so. If you try to fuck with that stuff, I'll fuck with you. And not in the hip new slang meaning.
I think you'll want to check what their definition of "Extremism" is first.
I get that. I still might advise against advertising that you're looking for racial/migrant extremists on your Tinder profile, but I don't mean to be in your business.
I still might advise you to not advise other people to not make humorous webcomics. Obeying in advance is your only chance to satisfy this regime.
Extremism on migration, race and gender?
Well... that's the GOP
Extremism depends highly on what you define as normal
Gives it away that "Christian white cis male born in the US" is what they think of as normal.
I wouldn't even deny that in a sense my views on "race" and gender are extremist, even if my first thought was the same.
Like, "it doesn't matter people are individuals" is pretty much by definition on the extreme end.
(Well there's also "it sadly did matter in the past and even if we instantly stopped all racism and sexism the results will linger so we should see what we can do to get closer to actual equality faster" but that seems like a different axis, even if to conservatives it probably seems "more extreme")
Are we ignoring this is unconstitutional and against the foundation of the founding of this country?
You must be new here.
I do love the American inclination to roll out a 250 year old piece of literature, stare down the barrel of a gun, and announce "You can't do that it's against the rules".
The Founding Fathers were violating provisions of the Constitution practically before the ink was dry.
But hey, maybe this is the moment when waving a big copy of the seven original commandments of Animal Farm and shouting "Four Legs are supposed to be good, actually!" will fix the problem.
The only time that any of these rules are enforced is when the people with money hire their expensive lawyers to ensure it's enforced.
When they break the rules against the poors, nobody has enough money to fight with their fancy pants lawyers.
They get "justice" and we get whatever they give us.
Nothing has changed.
"Freedom of Peaceful Assembly"
looks at fine print
*Permit Required
🙄 Fucking scammers
"Anti-christianity" is pretty rich coming from the antichrist.
Who do you think has more power over Christians: God or Orange Cheeto?
Presuming that God "made man in his image" and whiteness is a recent evolutionary adaptation, God looks closer to an African than a European.
I'd argue trump checks several of these boxes.
I'd say he checks more boxes than he doesn't. Though arguably, "traditional American views on religion and morality" could mean believing in freedom of religion and not being full-on fascist. The only one he probably doesn't check is the one about "traditional Americans views on family".
Let's not pretend that this list isn't designed to target out-groups. The definition is going to be flexible to allow anyone they don't like to be guilty.
Obviously.
That list is honestly terrifying.
My therapist has talked to me a lot about acceptance. I accept that it's terrifying and we should fight back.
That's still easier to live with than accepting what happened in my previous marriage.
We can individually contribute to resisting the regime. For LGBTQ, minorities, and people with disabilities simply surviving is active resistance.
I can't do anything to make my ex unfuck the other dude.
It's getting extremely mask off, shits about to get bad....
Support for overthrowing the government you say. Hmmmm let me think 🤔🤔 Who. Who could that be?
I wonder who supported the last insurrection...
So, like, not separating church and state? Or not being an agnostic deist?
Believing in FSM as if it's not equally ludacris as mainstream religion, basically being different
Are there actually any unironic Pastafarians? Statistically, there'd have to be a few, but Jesus the level of dumb that would require…
Like Trump administration???
Nonononono, the other extremism. You know those extreme psychos who like immigrants, black people or even (pause for effect) trans people.
Yea, love is extremism now.
"traditional American views on religion" so do they mean like upholding separation of church and state, or not quite that traditional?
It's the same contradictions all the way down the list.
"anti-capitalism"
So anyone who supports the government directly and arbitrarily interfering with private businesses? Like Trump is doing constantly?
"anti-Christianity"
So, anyone opposed to helping the poor and needy? Anyone who doesn't treat foreigners with respect and kindness? Anyone who skipped over that whole "meek shall inherit the Earth" thing?
"support for the overthrow of the United States Government"
So, Trump and MAGA.
"extremism on migration"
Also Trump and MAGA.
"extremism on race"
Trump and MAGA.
"extremism on gender"
Trump and MAGA.

To my interpretation, this isn't vague at all.
To join the club, you gotta leave your phone at home.

The entire point of vague shit like this is that they can use it to justify going after whoever they want.
Vibe-based assaults on people's rights are a traditional American value
Oh, they know when they see it. Its anything that isn't blindly falling in line with the party line. Simple as.
Someone who doesn't fit into what they view as "the norm".
I say, that "the norm" needs to be amended, changed, or done away with entirely.
Traditional american values to maga: lobotomies, slavery, ownership of women, murdering people for their land, and polluting everything.
Sooooo.... We're regressing to the 1850's. Got it.
Those were the times MAGA thought america was great.
Imagine this whole time they meant a specific native-american tradition by that.
They don't, but the thought is amusing.
Ah yes, anti-Christianity. The founding fathers would be proud!
A reminder: To fundamentalist christians, the moment you hear about Jesus Christ, yet decide to not convert, you're anti-christian until you do so.
Extremist ends of the abrahamics are pretty similar.
Exclusionist ideologies (nonadherents are less human) that seek universal acceptance and adoption. Christianity and Islam both have particularly imperialistic histories. Zionists seems to be trying to catch up now though.
"The power and the greatness of the Ori cannot be denied. Those who reject the Path to enlightenment must be destroyed."
Anti Christian is just the tip of the iceberg. Per Christian doctrine your soul is destined for damnation in hell if you don't accept Christ as the only path to salvation. Why would your life matter if you're going to hell anyways?
"overthrow of US government"
Lol no. That's what traitor trump is doing. They're attempting DARVO lmfao. Fuck this dumb list lol. It's a patriotic duty to oppose tyranny. If you support this dictator, you are a traitor.
Change "anti-christianity" to anti-religion and I'd have a perfect sweep.
I'm low-key relieved that it wasn't the first one. Like...the list is garbage. Don't get me wrong.
But it would have been telling if it was the first bullet.
I love how vague this is. Extremism on gender is entirely up to the reader to decide the definition. To some people 2 genders is extremist and hateful, to others anything except 2 genders is extremist and also somehow hateful.
"traditional American views" is a terrifying phrase for a Government to be using. It's so heavy with euphemism it's almost ready to burst.
Right, the ones in power get to define it.
The ones in power also define all of those things as any legal or illegal attempts to remove the ones in power from power.
They also think they're clever
They don't seem to realize there's more of us than there are of them.
... A lot more
Traditional American views on morality? Don’t those involve a lot of rape and murder?
It's just a shot away,
It's just a shot away.
Only of those different to the imaginary ideal!
Well, usually. Sometimes they prey on their own, when the mood strikes.
Yes, with a heavy sprinkling of debunked race science ie. white supremacy.
Darwin, in his exposition of survival of the fittest, wrote "civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate and replace the savage races throughout the world"
Which was a culturally "normal" way of thinking in that part of the world at that time. Crazy that so much, and yet so little, has changed in 150 years.
My family seems eager to visit the US. Meanwhile, there's the list of reason's I'd rather not.
I would get ICE'd so fast
I overheard my parents and brother talking about wanting to visit Mainland China, departing from the US where we live now, seemingly not worried about the return trip back to the US and having to deal with customs, and we aren't white, also on top of that, my brother is anti-CCP, and have talked about the Taiwan issue while parent's Wechat with microphone permissions are active.
Like... lmfao, they are gonna get fucked by two governments.
They think politics is just something people argue about for entertainment. Sadly, they are about to find out!
What would be considered extremism on migration or gender?
Whatever the ruling class decides. It is intentionally vague.
But this is what I am afraid. It’s so vague allegedly they could silence anyone or cancel green cards for any speech they doesn’t like.
That's the point
no borders, no gender.
Sounds radical to me, but not necesarily extremist
From the free speech party to the stop all speech I don't like party at break neck speeds.

Hostility towards those who have traditional views on family sounds like a bullshit way to say "doesn't like homophobes."
Judge a man's character by the quality of his enemies.

Okay lady, but you better at least be willing to cook AND clean and your blowjob game best be out of this world.
Did you know: most women are female.
Only at the rear.
Then why are we upvoting this one for being like that? Do you want more women to be like that? Because that's how you get more women to be like that.
I haven't met most women but I know this is nonsense. Some folk may have what can be seen as superficial preferences but even that is often a trauma response to scarcity or borne of arbitrary sociocultural pressures.
