      Kind of pathetic how we still have to solve the issue of cutting up baby dicks as ritual.

      Egypt’s worse; they still cut off the clits of preteen girls as ritual.

      Jews and Egyptians aren’t even trying to hide it. They do it specifically to reduce the sensitivity of sexual organs.

      Christians are the useful idiots (as always) who have been duped into thinking it’s for ‘medical’ or ‘aesthetic’ purposes. In all honesty, Christians cut up the dicks of their kids because the dad’s dick was cut up for him and he doesn’t want to admit there’s something wrong with it.

        Christians don’t do it. Americans do it. And they did it for the same explicit reason as the others thanks to the psycho weirdo Kellogg of the cereal fame to try to prevent masturbation, and sexual pleasure.

      You’re gonna love learning about a certain priestly duty at said events. Clue: it involves the priest’s mouth. 🤢

      Oh, I’m sorry, downvoters. I misspoke. It’s “rabbi”, not “priest”. Oops.

        Maybe in some cultures, but that’s not the norm. It was always just the doctor and his assistant. Honestly, it’s distressing to observe, so no parents or anyone else were allowed to be in the room. *I was a medical assistant for a gyno who did circumcisions during mom’s postpartum check up.

    Being cruel to other people by hiding behind some power imbalance.

    I don’t want to live in a society where the consequence for this behavior is a meaningless fine.

    Companies reporting price increases as “adjusting for inflation” when the price hike does not match inflation should have the entire C-suite going to the gulag. We need to unironically do what China does with its rich, terrorize them and make them walk on eggshells and hand out ridiculously harsh punishments to management when a business commits a crime.

    Also, campaign promises made by politicians running for office should be legally binding. If something they said would happen did not happen, they should be tried for treason and the burden should be on them to prove beyond reasonable doubt that they tried everything they possibly could to keep the promise but forces they could not possibly overcome prevented them from succeeding. Maybe then they’ll only promise things they actually intend to do.

    Lobbying; at least in its current form. Corporations being treated as people when it benefits them, but not when it would hurt them. Executives not being held legally accountable for the harm they inflict. SJC-Legalized bribery (as “speech”). HOAs. The Bail system. Legislatures redistricting themselves. Racial profiling. ICE. For-Profit prisons. For-Profit Healthcare. Destroying our ecosystem for profit.

    Fixed prices for fines. These should be based on a fixed percentage, not fixed dollar amount, of a persons overall wealth. None of this bullshit that can bankrupt a poor person but be the price of admission for the rich.

      Historically, fee-based “laws” are specifically designed to punish the poor. You off to update the whole system, or just the last few thousand years or so?

    Willful violations of the Constitution. Right now, elected officials can brazenly disregard the Constitution and the worst that happens is they are told not to do that again in the future, pretty please.

      Anti LGBTQ+ bigotry in general.

      This kind of bigotry has led to suicides of LGBTQ+ people and terrorist attacks against their communities. This is beyond “offending” someone.

      Is calling a MTF transperson a man considered ‘transphobia’ in your mind?

      Do you honestly believe people should be imprisoned for it?

        Intentionally and knowingly calling a MTF trans person a man is transphobia. Dunno about jail, but I’d be down to have legally enforced punishment for that. To be fair, that should probably cover all cases of (intentionally and knowingly) misgendering people, in a similar fashion to defamation.

          Dang. Thanks for being honest, but I vehemently disagree with you.

          People should be allowed to call others what they want. It’s up to us to be mature enough to handle people calling us things we don’t like.

          You should know that advocating for legal repercussions here drives people away from the cause.

    Keeping properties vacant instead of lowering rent. If you haven’t found a tenant within some set amount of time, 2-5 months or something idk, it should go to a public bidding process. Cities are full of empty commercial lots and half empty “luxury apartments.”

        I don’t think it should be illegal, but you should pay exponentially increasing property taxes after the first one
