Im guessing some conservative freak out happened over fruit cups?

There was a video on twitter of migrants selling fruit and a conservative woman freaking out. I assume that’s what it’s referring to.

It's so tiring to keep track of what they're outraged about now.

But the particulars don't matter. They're going to be trying to kill someone vulnerable, and no matter who it is, you should probably stop them, right?

If you can't turn off caring about everything you see, it'll be slippery slope for your mental health

“Fruit cup" = a queer person

I thought that was a pretty common slur?

I thought a fruitcake was a crazy person.

Por que no los dos?

And those aren't the only fruity slurs, either.

Just fruit

You can add any pizzazz

The picture implies that "fruit bat" is trending and tbh I love it.

But fruit cups are tasty and nutritious

Actually human meat is lacking in key nutrients because it has already used up the nutrients that the human body burns through quickly.

[–] FakeGreekGirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 8 months ago

Fair. We're still tasty though

[–] pancakes@sh.itjust.works 8 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Controversial opinion but I don't think humans taste good.

[–] FakeGreekGirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 8 months ago

Maybe you don't. I'm an absolute snack.

Tried to make a sex joke about tasting people but I guess I just literally don't know what about that is sexy, so someone else do it
