I remember people saying that libraries in the US can't ban people watching porn on the library computers because freedom of speech or something and that homeless people deserve to watch porn too. I want to believe they were yanking my chain but it just sounds very American hah

They're yanking more than just a chain.

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

What else? Are they yanking the levers at the chain-making factory?

They should add a little beaded curtain that gives access to PCs that are designated crank stations.

designated crank stations

lol

beaded

Someone needs to be hired to wash ‘em in between uses (could stink up the whole library)

[–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 5 points 2 days ago

The crank stations? Or their users?

If you’re homeless in a Republican state, jerking off in the library, you get a free bus ride to a democrat state. Then everyone from the Republican state criticizes the state you were sent to for allowing homeless people to jerk off in the library.

The only reason this is easily verified to be false, is that the word "bus" was included in a statement regarding the USA

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 10 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

You're thinking of public transit. They're talking about privately owned long haul buses (Greyhound) which are definitely still a thing, and Republicans have absolutely loaded them up with homeless people to ship them off to another state.

greyhounds exist

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

No, it’s actually quite easy to verify.

[–] Saapas@piefed.zip 10 points 3 days ago (2 children)

They are joking about the poor state of public transit in the US

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago

Which is fair, but the aforementioned Republicans don't use public transportation. They use taxpayer dollars to charter busses or planes to get undesirables out of their state.

especially when the origin state is red

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Also free, we can charge them somehow maybe ~~slavery~~ indentured servitude?

i want to disagree with you but i've worked in homelessness before.
