No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•In the movie Sinners, how are the vampires able to attack them without being invited in?English
31·2 days agoperhaps you can explain why correcting a myth (that folklore creatures were always allegory an not literal belief,) means I was hurt?
or perhaps you can address what I said.
belief in folklore predates blaming the creatures in folklore for things. things like nocturnal emissions, as an example. they’d have blamed something else if they didn’t already believe in demons. (specifically succubi.)
these beliefs weren’t allegory. it was literally a demon haunted world. And for many, it still is.

31·2 days agoThey weren’t “allegory”. They were literally thought to be the cause of many things.
They were also just folk stories, too- people believed in things like vampires before they were blamed for the diseases, not the other way around.

4·4 days agoAs others have said, if you have citizenship solely through your mom, and she got that citizenship though fraud (let’s say she concealed the fact that she was a criminal or something,) the she’s have her citizenship revoked.
It would be as though she never had it.
Which means it would be as though you never had it.
For a more specific case… Musk lied on his citizenship docs. He was here on a student visa and was not attending school.
If he gets his revoked (which he won’t coz he’s rich.) any of his kids could lose theirs- if their mothers weren’t also is citizens.

There’s a significant number of men who don’t realize marital rape is even a thing, here in the US.
So they completely agree that “rape of any kind” should be criminalized, as well as going home and raping their wives cuz “god said so.”

I’d piss on nVidia, though.
Especially if I had a massive amount of asparagus.
