It's a sexist opinion and so is the other. The degree which separates them is severe but not the idea that they both represent an idea that demeans women. I don't see that as absurd. I tend to see things in the bigger picture. Clearly you spend all of your time in the details.

So, by this logic, I can also reasonably assume that anyone who supports laws regulating soda consumption might be sympathetic towards Joe Stalin, since Stalin supported numerous government regulations as well.

Maybe you should spend some more time in the details.

Okay man, now you're being absurd by even mentioning Stalin. There's a huge difference. As someone who spends so much time in the details you'd think you could figure that out on your own.

But I digress. You think I am absurd, and that's fantastic!! I stand by what I said, and I think it is relative. Are we done yet or do you have more to say?

What does this mean?

What groups force membership?

it means you'd likely have to be a member to be the "target" of the message in those pictures

Most groups that support some cause usually try to get their message "out".

Kind of defeats the purpose of a promotional group to only advertise to current members.

Not really. I can see how a group which is likely mostly comprised of military wives would be inspired by members who are active military in this case. That is a pretty powerful message right there.

A support group is somewhere people who were having problems or saw challenges might go. So being in such as group doesn't mean you aren't people who need to be reached by a message. Particularly when membership requires noting more than clicking "like."
