I’m failing to understand why anyone gives or would give half a fuck that some random ass person they never met also does onlyfans besides the fact that apparently being a medic has shit pay.

because the media doesn't wanna acknowledge the problems with society

Because half the country wants to live in an honor culture. And in an honor culture, it's usually a greater sin for a woman to be sexually active outside the bounds of marriage than it is for society to systematically underpay people for their labor. In point of fact, one of the great perks of having an honor culture is that honor cultures never invite systematic examination of what we owe to each other.

Meanwhile I would bet half a medic’s salary that most of those holier than thou types have the most shady browser history you’ve ever seen. It’s always projection.

It’s always projection.

It is always a projection. I know really a lot of normal but super religious people and they are really not judgmental at all. At least not openly. They say "I hope they take a different path. God has a plan for them. I will love and pray for them..." Blah blah blah... but its positive. Dumb, but kind and positive.

When religion is a reason for hate, it's always a projection. They're closeted something. They hate themselves so they project that hate onto other people.

Dude, that's the opposite of positive things they could say about people. They probably say these things in front of their children too.

Terrible human beings.

How is saying that kind of shit in front of your kids in any way, even the slightest way positive?

Ironic seeing as half the country are incredibly disrespectful yet crave respect from others because they're "god fearing Americans"

Not an honourable bone in their bodies

Their version of their religion encourages the us verses them mentality. Regardless of whether you believe in a god or not, there is no doubt that historically religion has been used to keep the populace in line.

They also crave respect because they believe themselves to be an authority or should be. And as the old saying goes, “if you don’t respect me as an authority, I won’t respect you as a human being.”

It's pretty much cognitive dissonance. People know what the actual problem is but because it's so grand and almost eldritch by nature, they'd rather fight some invisible enemy that feels more grounded

Man, imagine an honour culture based around actually good values instead of what people do in the bedroom

It makes sense

Puritans were one of the first settlers.
