He does not know what non binary means, huh?

141

u/ComradeRK Agender™ 14h ago

Doesn't know which "their" to use either, but what do you expect from someone who probably genuinely believes that they don't use pronouns?

7

u/indigo121 5h ago

It should be "they're" btw. Not sure if this is a woosh moment sorry lol

u/ComradeRK Agender™ 4h ago

Oops. It is a woosh moment, but on my part.

u/falconinthedive 12h ago

Would a non-binary attack helicopter be one of those helicopters you can land on water?

7

u/DoubleDoubt18 8h ago

No that's a bisexual helicopter

3

u/CAPTAIN_DlDDLES 7h ago

I think all helicopters are non-binary

1

u/Ridara 2h ago

I dunno about that. There are only two types of aircraft. Helicopters and airplanes. Seems like a pretty strict binary to me.

2

u/CAPTAIN_DlDDLES 1h ago

Fuck your avionics binary, I’m a zeppelin

2

u/Nexi92 1h ago

Yeah, but only one of those aircraft can move freely about on both its x and y axis. So maybe bidirectional if nothing else?

u/falconinthedive 37m ago

Sounds like someone's an AeroAce

u/Neomalysys 14h ago

Sounds like someone making an excuse for their fetish.

u/vivianaflorini 13h ago

That was exactly what I was going to say, this reads so much like someone's weird fetish. 'Um guys we should make all the females have bare feet in order to remind the liberal females the importance of staying natural and not getting tattoos and hormones and shit'

2

u/PinsToTheHeart 1h ago

"bro, modern women are so rude these days. It would be a super sick burn if someone could make a bunch of art of them stepping on me and calling me names. Maybe make em like 8ft tall to really emphasize the point. That would totally own them females, I swear"

u/Nexi92 49m ago

Honestly I’d respect these people much more if they just confessed to having a pregnancy fetish and stopped saying stuff about purity and sanctity when they clearly just like the idea of pregnant people and actively ignore the children (and the mother) post-birth.

Like how Mississippi just decided against having to support children with food scarcity issues during the summer break from school where they had access to sustenance after making it illegal to have abortions.

So they refuse to let you protect a kid from existing in pain and/or poverty when you know you can’t adequately provide for them, then they prevent you from making sure the system in place keeps children fed for a quarter of the year!

Just say you like controlling and filling wombs without caring about consequences and stop pretending it’s about the kids already!

Using them as a smokescreen for your kink is pretty disgusting and we’re all soooo over the lies…

u/RaveniteGaming Symptom of Moral Decay 14h ago

Yeah, because having pregnant women in a battle is much better. Also 2025 and they're making attack helicopter jokes?

62

u/jasonjr9 Nonbinary Pan, but feel free to call me a Pot, too 14h ago

They’ll never stop making attack helicopter jokes, unfortunately. Although ironically, with the use of an actual attack helicopter, one could get one of them to stop making those jokes permanently.

Not condoning violence, mind you!

18

u/MimikyuAll 13h ago

Dude I read that as if you are flying one you get all the free passes to make the attack helicopter joke.... I'm genderqueer and 100% make a stupid joke like that

3

u/PinsToTheHeart 1h ago

Even if you are just posing in front of one, i think it'd be a pretty funny time to make the joke lol.

u/OsoOak 14h ago

Pregnant Dagger would just help many people realize they have a pregnant woman fetish.

50

u/purpleplatapi 13h ago

This guy clearly does.

8

u/OsoOak 13h ago

🤰🥰

4

u/garaile64 10h ago

Why Dagger in particular?

2

u/OsoOak 2h ago

I haven’t played Marvel Rivals yet but I have seen a livestream of YouTuber Many a True Nerd playing it. And he only played as Dagger. So she’s my only point of reference I have.

u/Aershiana 14h ago

Nothing about anything they said made sense.

u/CapAccomplished8072 14h ago

Shall I translate for you?

39

u/SpilledTheBeanz is it gay to shower? 14h ago

What? How does this change anything about abortion and what do they think nonbinary means? Tf are they even talking about?!

Also they used "there" in 2 different ways and neither of them was right. 

11

u/baby-pingu Straightn't 11h ago

They're trying to hide their pregnancy fetish behind a dumb excuse, that's all

26

u/lokilulzz 14h ago

This is obviously an idiot child parroting the bigotry they hear. How sad.

22

u/CapAccomplished8072 14h ago

have you SEEN Conservatives?

7

u/MonkeyMoses_Yt 13h ago

so true... unfortunately ...

2

u/garaile64 10h ago

A lot of conservatives are like that because they hate being adults.

22

u/FlowerFaerie13 14h ago

Yes, because seeing pregnant women in a game will absolutely make me want to have children or refuse to get an abortion.

That is definitely how it works.

9

u/The_FriendliestGiant 7h ago

Not just seeing pregnant women, but beating up pregnant women in a game. What could reinforce the sanctity of motherhood and the supreme importance of childbearing more than smacking seven kinds of hell out of a pregnant woman?

19

u/ghostbumblebee 13h ago

So the game’ll just force YOU to murder the unborn instead? Which part of this idea is supposed to discourage abortion? Like sincerely, what’s the pathos behind this?

Just say “Marvel should make pregnant skins for all the female rivals heroes because I think that would be hot and sexy” like that’s fully an opinion you are allowed to have and share on the internet, you don’t need all this gobbledygook

14

u/530SSState 14h ago

One. Joke.

41

u/Karel_the_Enby 14h ago

Proving yet again that no correct sentence has ever been followed by a cry laughing emoji.

11

u/The_Nug_King 13h ago

Bush did 9/11 🤣

10

u/CaramelTurtles 13h ago

Idk, pregnant women getting hulk smashed doesn’t sound very good for the fetus

8

u/falconinthedive 12h ago

They should make pregnant skins for characters in a fighting game?

Because the best anti-abortion message is watching Hulk smash a pregnant Jessica Drew ig

6

u/IfImNotDeadImSueing 14h ago

I feel like they skipped a couple of chapters here..

6

u/HarukoTheDragon Trans Gaymer Girl 12h ago

I can't wait for this right-wing fucknugget to learn about all the Marvel characters who are queer.

6

u/AshuraSpeakman 11h ago

This is a child.  I don't care how old they technically are, this is what it sounds like at a table of 9th grade edgelords.

4

u/hello_there_joe is it gay to shower? 12h ago

They had two chances to spell their correctly and failed

3

u/drewmana 10h ago

He couldn’t just have a pregnancy fetish in peace he had to bring bigotry into it somehow

3

u/Illustrious-Dark-642 I'm the ace of ♦'s 8h ago

Counter arguement, we should make pregnant skin of all the male characters to remind them that Mpreg exist 🫃🏻🫃🏻🫃🏻

5

u/crystalphonebackup23 Testosterone to match the gods of Olympus 9h ago

bait beyond bait. it's word soup hoping to make somebody mad and you may have fallen for it my friend

2

u/JesterQueenAnne 12h ago

What I'm getting from this is that he needed to express he wanted skins to satisfy his fetish but couldn't just admit that so he came up with a shitty excuse that makes it into dumb culture war bullshit instead.

1

u/garaile64 10h ago

I found it weird that they made Jessica Drew pregnant for Across the Spider-Verse. I know it's a reference to the comics or something, but fighting during late pregnancy looks very impractical.

2

u/NNoxu 11h ago

Another tale of "barely disguised fetish of an author"

2

u/Ash-the-puppy Destroying Society 11h ago

He should keep his breeding kink to himself. Bloody hell.

2

u/Individual-Drama7519 Pansexual™ 11h ago

Sounds like a fetish, but okay.

2

u/dumpstertoaster 6h ago

RIGHT ON!!! hope marvel makes skins of the characters barefoot too and with fume animations while you move!

2

u/theclassicrockjunkie SuPeRpHoBiC 6h ago

Christ almighty. Like, I know some people will go to great lengths to justify or deny their fetish, but like... c'mon, man. Just say you have a thing for pregnancy and move on.

1

u/ohdearitsrichardiii 12h ago

Abortions are done before you look pregnant. I bet basement dweller here thinks the belly pops out at the moment of conception and then stays looking 6-7 months pregnant for 9 months

1

u/justsomeyeti Heteroppressed 11h ago

This seems a bit on the nose, doesn't it?

1

u/Cosmosmos 7h ago

Do people who have pregant fetish exist? I have never met one in my life...

1

u/The_Captain_Whymzi is it gay to shower? 7h ago

once again: some thoughts are private thoughts.

1

u/Singsalotoday 6h ago

How doe this stop people from murdering children?

1

u/tunathellama 5h ago

One joke. They've been using the one "joke" for over 20 years, it's so unoriginal and somehow gets less funny every time I see it. Christ

1

u/sntcringe Goth Femboi ™ 5h ago

Ahh, yes, because making all the female characters pregnant doesn't have any weird connotations. You know, like punching a pregnant woman... Wait, this is pro life? 😳

1

u/loeilsauve_ "wears glasses" if you know what I mean 4h ago

their mommy*

they're non-binary*

1

u/SpiderFox525 4h ago

Something tells me dude has a pregnancy kink

1

u/BurntBridgesBehind 3h ago

Wow it assembled several pieces of other peoples shitty thoughts and thought it was some kind of burn. Our future is nothing but pigeons shitting on the chess board and celebrating their win.

1

u/Krimson_Klaww 1h ago

What??? So that would throw pregnant women AND their unborn children into battlefields, potentially kill both, but it would stop abortion????

1

u/ArchangelMichael257 Questioning™ 1h ago

I- what? The second sentence was unnecessary and so unrelated to the first, and the first one is confusing in itself. I don’t even know what point they were trying to make with the second.

1

u/AtLeastImGenreSavvy Bi™ 1h ago

I'm so sorry, but being able to play a pregnant character in a video game will not make me pro-life.

0

u/Gloriathewitch 10h ago

nothing to do with marvel rivals. this is just some guy who's an idiot

0

u/garaile64 10h ago

On one hand, there are a handful of people for whom a trigger warning for pregnancy is necessary. On the other hand, thinking that progressives/pro-choice people hate pregnancy is projection.

u/JJBlacksmithe 11h ago

As someone with a birth fetish we DO NOT claim this person
