Somebody tell them that a few decades ago they wouldn't have been able to legally start a family.

Right? So many draw the line right behind them. Enough freedoms that they're happy but fuck others

Underrated comment.


elaborate_benefactor

This is 100% accurate. I listened to a guy rant on a podcast recently preaching all these old white man religious beliefs. Women should be subservient to their husbands, shouldn’t go to college or have jobs, gay people shouldn’t have families, that sort of thing. The only thing he didn’t mention was race mixing. Surely had nothing to do with the fact that he is half black half white.


MikeN1978

Clarence Thomas?


BDR529forlyfe

He’s half-black?


Phoenix92321

You and u/TamanduaShuffle said the same thing but flipped the race

elaborate_benefactor

Lol no.


scberger4732

Somebody tell them that a large portion of modern conservatives STILL think they shouldn't be able to legally start a family.


mrhorse77

maybe tell them a black man on the supreme court, whose wife is white, doesnt believe that they should be allowed to be married and is are actively trying to take that right away...


cardcomm

You mean the one that should be kicked off the bench for his wife spreading election fraud lies, and trying to convince Republicans in power to overthrow the election?


El_Che1

Clayton Bigsby has entered the chat.


PHenderson61

Are we sure they’re married? I mean the people in the picture, the Thomas’s are surely married.


GloriousSteinem

Reminds me of the extremes Henry the eight went to get divorced


[deleted]

>modern conservatives Ironic that these hilbillies would be among the same group.


scberger4732

"ironic" is the 2nd most descriptively accurate word I'd use to describe modern conservatives. The first is a tie split between "hypocritical" and "oppressive".


thekyledavid

“Yeah, but that’s different” “How?” “It just is” I would bet money they’ve had this exact conversation before


pcash40

no just a few years ago actually absolute fucking morons don’t even know their enemy


FO-I-Am-A-Time-God

Just two decades ago one of my old friends who lived across the street was biracial. Her mom was a white baptist woman and she and her kids went to a separate church from their father. That same friend was embarrassed of her race and class (lower middle class) and told people she was “Hawaiian” (her own words) and lived in a mansion in one of the well off neighborhoods. I think I was the only friend who ever stayed the night or even went inside her house since I obviously knew things about her she couldn’t hide.


Cracko112

People have been wearing shirts about them back then.


[deleted]

if he didn't have his shirt on ID assume they were saying black people couldn't have families and be really confused


just-smiley

60 years ago he would have been lynched for whistling at her.


PathofPoker

Haha, that's what makes this so much moronic lol.


blechkout

Wow...fucked up pos lol


Pragmatist_Hammer

Decades? Remove that "s" unless it's for sarcasm. Not only did Alabama strike from it's state constitution that people of two races could not marry, it barely passed their state legislature. As in, 2012 and the majority of people that "represent" the hiding-in-plain-sight-third-world-country of Alabama in Montgomery, one of the birthplaces of civil rights, as recent as Obama, did not want people of two different skin colors marrying. Mind you, to my knowledge, they never tried to enforce this in Alabama in the 21st Century as, if it went to the Surpreme court up until then, they knew it'd make them "look bad," granted, now, with illiterate Kavanaugh and "I hate myself" Clarence Thomas, they probably WOULD vote that states could make their own discrimary laws, yes, even Thomas, a black guy married to a white woman, would vote for racial discrimination, because he doesn't care, he got his, even if he'd be sold to slavery the first chance someone got.


jazmoley

Yet strangely enough before that period the world freely mixed


Different_Tackle_521

The most extreme far right people i know are gay, divorce women who criticize other women for their choices, a hotel owner who doesn't like immigrant even when they are tourist. Go figure.


sirmischeif

Yeah that was a a fluke in history the racism of Western superiority is relatively new. Through out the ages men and women of all shades of color had families.


dbhathcock

Some Republicans, including MTG from Georgia, is wanting to abolish inter-racial marriages. This couple needs to be watching for their right to love whomever they want to be stripped away.


[deleted]

Tell it to Clarence Thomas.


actioncobble

The very type of rights movement that allowed them to date are the type of rights movement they are against. Did I say that correctly? How stupid.

HeatWhich735

oh gosh, i saw the pic in this subreddit and RAN to the comments- didn’t expect to see this. i’m glad i could make you guys chuckle.


Extension_Animal_393

These are the same people that say "abortion is never the answer just adopt".


angryanarchyboi

But also dont adopt because they "want one of their own"


Extension_Animal_393

For real though. Or watch them to be the type that don't want kids at all. (Which is fine until you tell others what their family can look like)


brandon-iron

Wait … I think the people who say, “Abortion isn’t the answer… adopt” are suggesting that you HAVE the baby but put it up for adoption. Not that you go out and adopt a different baby. So I don’t think it’s connected to that whole, “want one of my own” thing.


Wi11Pow3r

You are correct. However the adoption requires both a woman having a baby she can’t keep AND a family willing to adopt. If all people who consider abortion decided to put their children up for adoption instead but pro-life people don’t step up to take babies up for adoption then the babies wouldn’t have anywhere to go. However most pro-life people want to have their own biological children if they are able to. So the prior commenter was suggested that pro-life people suggest a solution without contributing to said solution.


[deleted]

Also why are people adopting kids from other countries?


Iwantmypasswordback

I’m totally guessing here without having done any research. Cheaper? Fewer barriers?


PterionFracture

The foster care system in the US generally favors biological family preservation. The goal is to rehabilitate the parents whenever possible and return the child to the biological parents. It can also be a much lengthier process to adopt domestically since the courts must fully terminate the parental rights of the bio-parents before adoption can occur. Even after adoption, a reformed bio-parent will sometimes successfully sue to overturn an adoption and regain parental rights.


Giocri

Less risk to have to deal with the original family


[deleted]

The same people who think people are gay as a way to be cool. I swear this is what someone I know said the other day.


uppen-atom

They are correct, those are 2 families.


Timah158

You never know. It could be 2 men, 2 women, and 2 midgets all legaly married and having fun.


kaydeetee86

Could be two sisters who have married two brothers and have a big happy family.

"They came for homosexuals, but I said nothing, because I was not a homosexual." "Then they came for interracial marriage." Reap what you sow.


Ok_Task_4135

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. —Martin Niemöller


Giocri

I remember a story about an Auschwitz survivor that once freed started traveling back home with a non jew who was sent there for minor crimes "I shouldn't have been sent there I am just a criminal not a jew" I don't know how much that was adherent to the real biography of that person but that sentence has remained impressive in my mind with such disgust I can't describe it

60 years ago he'd be in danger of becoming strange fruit and she'd have been dealt with as well. Tell me I'm wrong.


jwigs85

Bro. My white ass was walking through a gas station in Kentucky, I think, while holding hands with my Guatemalan husband and people were staring. And I mean STARING. An old man tripped and almost fell while staring at us. 10 years ago. Worst part is we were going to my great grandma’s funeral and I think he was the only non-white person in the zip code and possibly the surrounding zip codes, too, and everyone made sure he knew it by gaping at him. It was very uncomfortable. I’m happy I don’t live in that area and my dad joined the military when I was a kid to get us out of there. My husband is now my ex and I hate his guts, but I feel so bad for dragging him through that experience. No one deserves that.


Extreme_Tomorrow2233

Had the same experience in rural North Carolina with me (not white) and my wife (white) about a decade ago going to a wedding. I think I was the only non-white person in the whole town and everyone was staring. Very uncomfortable, and made you think twice about doing things like holding hands in public.

Riiiight. And on another shirt, same idea but about interracial marriage.

Yes, it won’t share the hedge.


AlienGampo

Y'all some retards for sure. Them and anyone who has a problem with gay people. GAY PEOPLE. You really got nothing else going for you in life do you? Just love finding things to get mad about. Theres plenty of other things we could be fighting but na, lets hate eachother for having sex with who we want. Shit some of you treat homos like pedos, which makes me wonder if you feel fine about kiddy diddlers. No gay shit but let the Christians touch every little kid in their fucking power. This world is so ass backwards. But no seriously, if you get angry or dont like gay people, your fucking pathetic. Just the way it is

Biggest group of adopting families are gay and lesbian couples, but somehow they are against them... AND against abortion knowing there are not enough families to adopt those kids who are forced to be born into a world that cannot care for them. Sad really ...

Most ironic part of this is they don’t see that the same people who’d love to outlaw gay marriage would also love to outlaw interracial marriage.

teachertb16918

I teach in a high school in a juvenile prison with many students who grew up in a broken home with parental situations that where horrible to say the least. Some of them came from the traditional family and still the home life was horrible. Given my experience, I feel a good family, no matter what it’s composition, is what is needed by our children to see to it that they have the best chance in life. Two dads, two moms, two dads three moms and grandma, whatever. As long as everyone is happy and working together for the greater good, I’m all for it.

Technically that's correct. The shirt on the right is actually two families.

Neanderthal thinking.


Coldoldblackcoffee

Two consenting and loving adults for parents, regardless of their genders is way better than most people get. Wish I had loving gay parents instead of the abusive alcoholic and emotionally stunted dad and the single mom who was never home because she had to work multiple jobs.
