I may swear like a pirate, but I'm a fucking PRINCIPLED pirate

Asking if people could spot the antichrist has always seemed paradoxical to me. Isn't the antichrist's defining thing that he will deceive people into following him? Lost cause imo
The goal of every single politician, sales person, [so many blanks] is to deceive.
The lesson in the Bible is to listen carefully, watch his actual actions.

who is hyping up swear words lol
thought this was interesting, swearing can basically keep you from being a fucking pussy apparently
This phenomenon is particularly strong in people who do not use such words on a regular basis
But you have to keep it for the bad day

What's interesting is, traditionally in language, once forbidden words got ran out, there were still other bad words left to enter the lexicon. "Damn" used to be a genuine curse. My grandfather survived WWII and proudly told be people of all the bombs he dropped, he never dropped the F-bomb.
What's next? There's no new forbidden words. Nothing left in the back of the store. Our ability to run through words outpaced our ability to make bad ones.

I killed a lot of people, many probably innocent, but I'm a good person cause I never swore!

So it's ok for your kids to use the words but you just don't swear in front of them? Isn't that just being a passive parent?
We don't judge other parents for the choices they make, and in fact we teach our kids to not swear in front of other kids. But that's no different then speech used with friends and speech used in a professional setting. Everyone adjusts their speech by setting.
We do teach not just by example but by also making sure they understand the meaning they are trying to convey. For ALL words. The difference between the meaning of racist words and non-disparaging swear words is an ocean. Swear words are really just regular words while racist words are meant to hurt someone. We don't allow any words that are meant to hurt, no matter what that word actually is.
To me using frak, heck, gosh, darn, etc is the exact same as the equivalent swear words.
Allowing swears also takes away their taboo nature. My wife's nephew was brought up the same way and was the only one in his friend group to NOT get in trouble for swearing at school. He knew the time and place.
To me, teaching to base language on the meaning and not word itself is the opposite of lazy.
I don't teach them that it's ok to use bad words. I teach them there is a time and place for everything.
Which just does back to my original point. Killing in the name of self defense isn't ok but acceptable.
Ok and accepted are two different things. The fact that you haven't caught on to that and the fact that the producer of that meme thinks he's a good person for simply not being a racist bigot isn't the hot take you think it is.

Not quite. It's that he was flying a plane and being shot at 6 days a week, and yet still didn't need to jump up to a new bad word. Whatever he already knew is the language he used.

Being a pirate means taking from assholes who do not deserve it. If you take from anyone you're an asshole yourself.
I pirate AAA games because they do not deserve my money, as the poor gameplay vallue doesn't exceed 2 hours. I pay for indie games because they deliver, it's worth my money.
I used to be in the navy, went on deployment to Somalia several times to hunt pirates. I deeply regret it. Because althoug they have no choice and do what they do because of what us western countries did to them, they do horrible things to others who do not deserve it. But in the end we as a rich western society are the cause for their despair. So we are responsible for what they are forced to do to others. I ended up with PTSD.
You can be a pirate with principles. Especially when mega corps and billionaires are forcing society into submission, forcing people to work to just to survive and/or force people to be someone they are not.
Fight the oppression. Piracy isn't a crime, it's symptom of a crime. Also, these days you do not own the media you purchase. It's not theft when you steal something which you cannot own it when you purchase it.
(Software) Piracy is not theft, by definition. Theft requries an intent to deprive, and copyright infringement does not deprive. Theft is a crime, copyright infringement is a civil offense (aside from the criminal version that now exists thanks to extensive lobbying by predatory rights holder organisations, but that has a slightly higher bar and is meant only for commercial pirates who profit).
