No, as I said I’m not a Catholic. I stand corrected but do you expect most Americans to know about Catholic rites?
I don't even practice a religion and I knew this. It's literally what "Ash Wednesday" is all about. And I ridicule those who do it because how fucking retarded is it to walk around with shit on your forehead all day and act like you're doing something meaningful.
 
I knew about it by growing up Protestant, so yeah kinda
To be fair to him i think it depends on where you live.

I had never seen anyone with it till I moved to a place with a large catholic church down the road a few years ago. If you live in a place with like 90% protestant churches and don't have any catholic friends it's entirely possible to have no idea it's a thing.
 
If you won’t fight for your own fucking country, what were you going to do for ours?

We aren’t Canada and we shouldn’t shelter draft dodgers
I'd rather have draft dodgers who left because the government started yanking men off the streets than opportunistic migrants who used the strife as an opportunity to shortcut the immigration process.

In this case I'm sure there's more of the later than the former but anyone who wants to fight is already in it. You're getting women who will never be sent to the front lines and canon fodder which the government will gladly sacrifice so the ones who want to fight are less likely to die.

The difference being the Ukrainian draft-dodgers who ran away to other countries are now demanding those countries send their men to go die in their place.

Draft dodging in a DEFENSIVE war is BY FAR worse than draft dodging in an aggressive war. People who do that are fucking useless.

The women are tainted by failure genes.

I can go into it, but it’s a huge thing about hypocrisy and imperfection. The Church does it partially because you aren’t supposed to announce it like a big deal when you are fasting/ praying/ being charitable. It’s supposed to make you think.
Matthew 6:16-18 is the reading for Ash Wednesday.

Giving up stuff is mostly for kids, for adults it’s introspection and fasting. People should not know you are a Catholic because of some soot on your forehead, they should know it because of your character.

Fun fact: the word hypocrite comes from an old term for actor. Roman actors typically worse those Comedy-Tragedy masks for character swaps. It’s a fun way of saying two faced.
 
It is very entertaining. I couldn't take it seriously after the crypto meme stuff. What's even funnier is that the left has been largely inept at capitalizing on this. It has truly become a retard circus for everyone involved.
In an ideal world your average person would be able to judge their leaders actions without bias. I didn't like Biden. He didn't try to grift his supporters. I didn't like kamala. She wasn't on the epstein list. The right has tried to make people see reason, it hasn't worked. America used to be anti-russia. Talk about a psyop.

23% of Americans are Catholic. Every single year they wander around the country with shit on their foreheads for one day. It is in fact surprising people never noticed this before.
 
There are good Black composers, but they are rare. Most of the shit I see is either disappointing or outright incendiary. Whether they've been completely consumed by racial grievance or they're profiting off of it, this does nothing but damage the reputation of anyone that deserves praise. Maybe I'm expecting too much, though. Even one of the featured composers in the first article, Jens Ibsen, seems unable to put the pieces together as to why he suddenly got a lot of government and institutional interest and aid after St. Floyd partook in Da Holy Comunion.
Give me tophats, I'm MATI.
Can we be realistic for a hot minute? Fucking all the best composers are dead, and the remain ones that are good and living are all working for hollywood, where shitting soundtrack music actually affects someone's bottom line.

Any fucking symphony concert always involves sitting through some shithead's (white or red or yellow or black) stupid atonal composition entitled "faggottry for woodwinds and triangle". It's so bad you might as well not even show up on time.
