    We are all prostitutes in some way, shape or form under capitalism. Tell them that at thanksgiving and example that renting yourself to a company to drive trucks, scan tills,deliver pizza is not that different to renting yourself out for sex. Both involve you doing a service for others in exchange for cash.

      This is the sort of lighthearted shitpost response I always hope for when I post something like this.

        Only in countries where sex work is illegal.

        You’d think that a country with a recent, well documented, lived example of how prohibition doesn’t actually fix anything might have learnt something from the experience

          Just because we can’t enforce something 100% all the time, every time, doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try.

          After all, is murder and theft can’t be fully stopped, should we just say screw it and get rid of the laws forbidding it?

            That’s a false equivalence.

            I’m not saying that we shouldn’t prohibit people from doing antisocial things that harm others, I’m saying that adults doing things/consuming things/selling things in a safe, regulated way where everyone consents, understands what they are doing and the risks associated and no one gets hurt probably shouldn’t be illegal.

      So crazy that people still believe this.

      The other twelve disciples (Bobert, Dave, Big Dave, Little Dave, Deathlord, Dolores, Fifibelle, Larry, Lucifer, Tarquin, and Zebuchenezuzuzuzechazzachuah) were on the other side of the table.

      Who do you think took the photo? Do you think Jesus had a selfie-stick? SMH.

      Pay the prostitutes to argue for MAGA and fascism and watch the uncle be upset in having to agree with a prostitute.

        Bonus points if the uncle argues against MAGA and fascism so that he won’t have to agree with a prostitute.

    Jesus was a homeboy, follow his lead: drink wine, hang with the homies, be chill with the hoes, pass the snacks and wreck a market in a mega church.

    If you get bored, tell your uncle that the easiest way to stop illegal immigration is to dissolve national borders

    It’s Thanksgiving dumbass, prostitutes have no place there, that’s for Christmas. You should bring a Native American to true honor the tradition. If he or she happens to be a prostitute, or you have enough trust, ensure a very loud fuck that night, and please keep yelling “thanks for this” so everyone knows you are thankful.

    Jeez, some people just mix shit up

        Technically, you should bring them to a Native American house. Unless is a prostitute pilgrim, then you can bring them to your house, but the custom then is fucking in the nearest bathroom during the dinner, same audio cues apply. Bonus points if you as the host get pegged by them.
