It’s more a comment on the current American interpretation of Jesus, especially those on billboards etc. There’s no real abortion hatred in the Bible either; people usually just use the scripture about god knowing them in the womb, despite a supposed abortion remedy being in the Bible, or Exodus 21:22-24 where the baby dying is only a fine but any damage to the pregnant woman is repaid in kind (eye for eye, tooth for tooth, death for death).

Hmmm… So by this reasoning, pickles are racist…
I knew it!
Racism. They don’t like all the black people in games now
(But you knew that and were just pointing it out more cleverly than I)
Hmm, the only time I learned about false cognates was when learning high school Spanish, so I assumed it meant two words that sound similar in different languages but have different meanings, rather than homonyms in the same language.
Example: embarrassed and embarazado
Looking the above example up for spelling, I see it’s called a false friend, and perhaps I misunderstood false cognate (from here https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Glossary#false_cognate ) :
false cognate
A word in a language that bears a phonetic and semantic resemblance to a word in another or the same language but is not etymologically related to it and thus not a true cognate. Examples include English day/Portuguese dia, German Feuer/French feu (both meaning “fire”), Malay dua/Sanskrit द्व (dva) (both meaning “two”), and English dog/Mbabaram dog. Compare false friend.false friend
A word in a language that bears a phonetic resemblance to a word in another language, often because of a common etymology, but has a different meaning. Examples include English parent/Portuguese parente (“relative”) and English embarrassed/Spanish embarazada (“pregnant”). Compare false cognate.
Wait… I remember this from a webcomic… but can’t remember which…



Personally, these are the reasons I try to stick with just stuff people post of themselves because they like to. That generally means i only see pics and short videos, but that’s all fine to me.
Some may be advertising their only fans, so there’s some minor guilt like only taking free samples, but still feels better than worrying about the industry in general.
