We are all prostitutes in some way, shape or form under capitalism. Tell them that at thanksgiving and example that renting yourself to a company to drive trucks, scan tills,deliver pizza is not that different to renting yourself out for sex. Both involve you doing a service for others in exchange for cash.
This is the sort of lighthearted shitpost response I always hope for when I post something like this.
Isn’t prostitution usually exploited by organized crime?
One could quivle about the difference between prostitution and sex work but generally speaking you are correct
Only in countries where sex work is illegal.
You’d think that a country with a recent, well documented, lived example of how prohibition doesn’t actually fix anything might have learnt something from the experience
Just because we can’t enforce something 100% all the time, every time, doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try.
After all, is murder and theft can’t be fully stopped, should we just say screw it and get rid of the laws forbidding it?
That’s a false equivalence.
I’m not saying that we shouldn’t prohibit people from doing antisocial things that harm others, I’m saying that adults doing things/consuming things/selling things in a safe, regulated way where everyone consents, understands what they are doing and the risks associated and no one gets hurt probably shouldn’t be illegal.
What a great point.
The communist prostitute is so much better
Seize the means of reproduction!
You’re not wrong. And perhaps that’s what Jesus was onto when he said “do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?” (Matthew 6:25)
That was him telling men not to prostitute themselves for money and status.
The trick is to force everyone to sit on the same side of the table.
they only did that for the painting.
So crazy that people still believe this.
The other twelve disciples (Bobert, Dave, Big Dave, Little Dave, Deathlord, Dolores, Fifibelle, Larry, Lucifer, Tarquin, and Zebuchenezuzuzuzechazzachuah) were on the other side of the table.
Who do you think took the photo? Do you think Jesus had a selfie-stick? SMH.
pay some prostitutes to come to your thanksgiving dinner and debate your uncle on his ideas about immigrants.
Pay the prostitutes to argue for MAGA and fascism and watch the uncle be upset in having to agree with a prostitute.
Bonus points if the uncle argues against MAGA and fascism so that he won’t have to agree with a prostitute.
I would splurge and get me a prostitute with a PhD in International Relations or stuff like that.
The key differences here is “inviting” vs “paying”.
Who says you can’t invite some prostitutes to Thanksgiving dinner? Even a hooker’s gotta eat.
Even a hooker’s gotta eat.
That’s what ho cakes are for.
One might consider this paying them with food, but you could say the same about Jesus, so it tracks
Jesus was a homeboy, follow his lead: drink wine, hang with the homies, be chill with the hoes, pass the snacks and wreck a market in a mega church.
You forgot pissing off the Jews until they crucify you.
If you get bored, tell your uncle that the easiest way to stop illegal immigration is to dissolve national borders
…and the easiest way to stop gender ideology (whatever the fuck that’s supposed to be) being forced on our children is to abolish gender.
THAT’S WHAT V2 IS FOR
Wait a second, when did I become a moderator of Lemmy Shitpost? I mean I don’t mind, but no one told me!
Congratulations, I guess. Now, get to work!
I don’t think Jesus asked the prostitutes to give him handies under the dinner table.
Missed opportunity.
Jesus doesn’t have to ask.
Jesus prefers footsies.
Ofc not, that what the decides are for
Guess ho’s coming to dinner

That ended weirdly specific. Looks at username Oh yea, that makes sense now.
Jesus sounds like the best dude in this scenario.
Yes but don’t forget he didn’t do it to get chummy with them, he did it to convert them.
Oh shit. Maybe Donald Trump is the next messiah.
His followers sure seem to think so.
He sure seems to think so too

Jesus invited prostitutes to dine with him and he’s the light of the world, I do it and I’m “making Thanksgiving awkward.”
Its because you are the prostitute your uncle brought and everyone hates +1s
It’s Thanksgiving dumbass, prostitutes have no place there, that’s for Christmas. You should bring a Native American to true honor the tradition. If he or she happens to be a prostitute, or you have enough trust, ensure a very loud fuck that night, and please keep yelling “thanks for this” so everyone knows you are thankful.
Jeez, some people just mix shit up
What if you can’t find a Native American but you can find a Pilgrim?
Technically, you should bring them to a Native American house. Unless is a prostitute pilgrim, then you can bring them to your house, but the custom then is fucking in the nearest bathroom during the dinner, same audio cues apply. Bonus points if you as the host get pegged by them.
