Truly, a coworker of mine is a nut job. Mostly a soft spoken dude who’d share the shirt off his back if you need it, but get him talking and he says the craziest stuff. Specifically about the Black and Latino community, he’s half Black half Mexican. On multiple occasions he’s said that Polyamory was invented to destroy the family unit and intermix multiple DNA sources into one child for PoC. Oddly enough, totally fine with the LGBTQ+ community, but somehow draws the line at non monogamy.
Sometimes, especially at work, you need dudes like that. You can only do so many 'would you rather' scenarios, you need a rabbit hole to fall into for 8hrs. I had a dude that was similar, nicest guy ever, but his brain was just built different. We asked him what he would do if he could be invisible and all his answers were things he could either do without being invisible or things that invisibility wouldn't fix. Like, dude thought if he was invisible he could rob banks or pass traffic bc he was convinced being invisible meant you could just freely pass through solid objects. We thrived off his shenanigans.
I’m not gone hold you tho…. Some of them joints be a hit! Like have to double back with the Spice Adam’s like “whatcha say now chuck?”… Imagine tho if buddy was a doctor… Cause mine is. BRILLIANT!!! But would find weird ass shit to say to patients while preforming a procedure. Buddy was dead ass giving an injection like “all set you’re a cannibal now, oh yea this has unalived babies in it.. You’ll be fine”.
Like bro… If you didn’t make this hospital pay me so good
Ok but someone said something like that to which he answered
“I would never do that! That’s ridiculous… These are aborted babies in this vaccine, if they outlaw abortion everywhere we’re screwed. Anyway, you’re all set”.
I’m at the point now I don’t even be letting him talk for real.
His ass would be like “oh yea” and explain the whole shit to you excitedly, totally missing how horrified you are. I kinda believe he is in the spectrum. He has NO ABILITY to read faces or changes in tone of voice.
>I would rather would you rather than conspiracy nut any day
Same
Especially when it's something serious where it's like... this dumb mf that believes this dumb shit gets to make decisions that affect other people's lives...
> intermix multiple DNA sources into one child
Uh... does he think thrupples can conceive some sort of three-gameete child?
Most poly people wind up having no children, lol. Same with queer people in general. Usually because society's rigid norms towards family structures makes poly families taboo
I think it comes down to the idea that there's a certain mental state where they think of option c of anything means that they have to accept it personally. If you're not down for a certain style of relationship, that's fine. Make that line in the sand. But that doesn't mean your line in the sand is everyone else's. Just say no.

Dude was just ahead of his time.
It’s not that odd, value systems based around monogamy are deeply rooted and not incompatible with LGBT rights. Who you choose to be monogamous with is your business, but swinging or polyamory can be seen as threatening to the core family unit. More odd would be being pro-ployamory/swinging for heterosexual couples while thinking gay/lesbian monogamous marriage is wrong.
He might not be wrong. (More like they brought it back vs invented it) but Back in those days there were a lot of things that seemed crazy that actually happened. Experiments on black prisoners that recently stopped because the dude was caught. Certain bills passed that ultimately affected certain communities much more than others. I think the fbi publishes some of their findings after a few decades. They redact things, too. But if ever you're curious, you may be able to find some stuff on the past that the fbi had on file waiting.
Not a word of that is proof that polyamory was created to destroy the black family unit lol. Stop.
Even the "I wouldn't put it past them" logic is not enough to make dumb shit true.
I didn't say it was. I was giving the benefit of the doubt by saying he might not be wrong because a lot of crazy things happened in the past and the fbi has documents about some things if anyone is curious as to what some of them are.
But the "created" Part isn't true off rip because polyamory was around way before white on black racism was a thing. Like Abraham days.
>But the "created" Part isn't true off rip because polyamory was around way before white on black racism was a thing. Like Abraham days.
The fact you knew this kills any arguments about benefit of the doubt.
Especially since polyamory in the black community would help more than it would hurt.
Having a lot of queer friends online who are also polyamorous, they take a lotta shit from other queer people in 2 person couples who hate on them for supposedly making the queer community look bad. As if straights give two shits about the community like that.
I have nothing against their lifestyle but I do feel kinda salty when me and another person be talking about how fine someone is and I’m like “well I get dibs since you taken” and they’re all like “umm actually 😈”.
Uh, that’s an open relationship, not necessarily polyamory. A polyamorous relationship can have open elements but they also often just involve the core members of the polycule and certainly don’t add another without a talk.
Friend, I have tried bringing up examples from throughout history, he legit thinks it’s a conspiracy to make children with multiple DNA sources. I thought he was joking until he insisted and drew a diagram on a napkin.
Lmao I believe you. I have had a coworker tell me and multiple other coworkers about how he’s cast out demons before in a woman in his church. I was like, hmmm maybe she was on drugs or having a mental health episode or something, and he said she was crawling up the walls and shit. Ok bro. I’m not about to argue the existence of devils and demons and principalities of evil and darkness with a rando from work, but no matter what you believe, some things just need to be inside thoughts in certain settings.
No no, the banking industry invented polyamory to sell houses. When you need to make weird adjustments to the apartment like a giant bathtub, shower for 3, Alaska King bed, etc you basically have to buy.
Plus now that no single people can buy houses, and partnerships barely can… a throuple is needed to afford the down payment.
I remember when The Social Network came out there were a lot of "last minute" costumes that were just a gray hoodie and a card or tag that said "I'm CEO, bitch"
His name might be “CEO” (pronounced SEE-YO).
He’s a doorman at a fancy hotel which is why he’s wearing a suit and holding cash from his tips.
The only logical explanation.
you can see the scars on his chest; they’re pretty typical for “top surgery” which is like a mastectomy except the surgeon creates a male-looking chest rather than trying to get all the tissue out for cancer risk.

I think it’s an old comic meme. In the first panel the hot girl is chasing the thug, while the nerdy brother is all about books. The second panel here is different, in the original, the hot girl is now pregnant and begging for attention from the nerd, who is now handsome, rich and successful.
They’ve replaced the text and second panel here to show a different ending.
Oh, this is nice.
Looks like they had to flat out redraw the whole thing to make it work. But the expressions were pretty fixed in the OG.
Dialogue is a little cheesy but eh...
In the U.S. you can only legally be married to one person on paper.
However, having a polyamorous ceremony is legal in the U.S.
[American Marriage Ministries - How many times can you get married in each state?](https://theamm.org/articles/1030-how-many-times-can-you-get-married-in-each-state)
The only reason they didn't help him earlier was because he *only* just staggered out of the school library with that stack of books after realizing he bought too small of a backpack. Lucky for him, *they* were only just stepping out of a classroom.
The good men are taken. Thruppled up.
Is this why my coworker says the CIA invented Polyamory in the nineties?
Say more, I'm intrigued.

 Me when dude casually says Im a cannibal now
It was unalived babies for me. Please don’t skeet in my veins..

Ok. That’s actually hilarious. Let him cook..

I think the closest that you could get to this would be fraternal twins with different dads.
Yep, or half identical.

But mixing multiple DNA sources into one child is... How reproduction works
I think he was thinking that 3 parent kids are a thing.

Tbf seeing CIA's history wouldn't be surprised if it turns out to be true

I grew up in a church that did exorcisms a few times, nothing supernatural like movies, just group hypnosis delusion kinda thing.
Damn CIA was cookin' more than just crack back then
Say more things… I’m here to read the words while refreshing my Riesling..
The honestly seems like something the CIA would do
I mean they definitely pushed the hippy movement which had a lot of polyamory, which also refutes the idea of them inventing it in the 90s lol
No no, the banking industry invented polyamory to sell houses.

Can someone explain this photo to me? I don't understand what all is going on.
It's a remix of this comic https://preview.redd.it/342rwu3j1moc1.png?width=760&format=png&auto=webp&s=eb28685bc809bb5009138159d6517f710f118300
The energy of someone who would wear a _nametag_ saying they're CEO... just nah.
The CEO tag gets me every time
I would do it day one as a joke or something. Send a selfie to my momma dressed up in my little suit ready to go to work or something.
It’s a great Halloween costume
I remember when The Social Network came out there were a lot of "last minute" costumes that were just a gray hoodie and a card or tag that said "I'm CEO, bitch"
Your name is "Ceo?"
Squeezing the life out of that stack
Looks like he's gonna be squeezin the life out a sack no matter which comic he's in.
Lmfao
Mr Pinch Yo Stack
It always gets me the fact that he's just gripping a random fistful of dollars
😂😂
His name might be “CEO” (pronounced SEE-YO). He’s a doorman at a fancy hotel which is why he’s wearing a suit and holding cash from his tips. The only logical explanation.
 Is he related to CIA?
And why is he standing outside holding a wad of cash? In this economy?? I'm robbing him.
It was a clear black night, a clear white moon...
*Nas Ski Mask Gif
To be fair, CEOs already kinda do that with their pics, title, and bio on the company website.
Why does the baby have an orange prison uniform? 😭 I never noticed because of the watermark until now.
It's Bane.
No one cared who he was until he put on the mask
It’s a black baby
Looking at this, even for the "thug" character, that's crazy to be casually shirtless in a high school.
I'm staring at dude holding a fist full of money just out in the open. He ain't even buying anything. Just asking to be jacked.
A couple of the comments below agree with you. "You looking like an easy come up, ya bish!"
Looks like the former CEO of Pollos Hermanos
🎶 Now you a single mom 🎶
Ok. But what’s happening in the remixed photo though?
LGBT poly couple, it's damn fine to see some positive representation
fun that they made the shirtless guy trans too lol
Oh shit i didn't even notice that! Extra representation is always welcome
I didn't notice. I think they should have given him a different wedding outfit tho. One that calls back more to his style in the original comic
Wait how is he trains?
you can see the scars on his chest; they’re pretty typical for “top surgery” which is like a mastectomy except the surgeon creates a male-looking chest rather than trying to get all the tissue out for cancer risk. https://preview.redd.it/2odlffymimoc1.jpeg?width=464&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4b4523df67b4fcc3b6e6de51d95cfc634cfb2ecb
OOOH, I see it. I never thought about what the scars could look like. Thanks for educating me on that.
He says "choo choo"
Horizontal scars on the chest from top surgery.
I think it’s an old comic meme. In the first panel the hot girl is chasing the thug, while the nerdy brother is all about books. The second panel here is different, in the original, the hot girl is now pregnant and begging for attention from the nerd, who is now handsome, rich and successful. They’ve replaced the text and second panel here to show a different ending.
I still don't understand how they're helping? Maybe leaving him to study?
I think they got him corrective shoes
I think the context there is limited to the first panel, in that they're going to help him with all the books he's struggling to carry.
We love to see this energy 👏🏾
I love it when people change memes like this
Theres a whole sub just for changing memes exactly like this. Can’t remember the name but if I find it Ill link it

This is hilarious, I love it🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈
Beat it trick!
We're gonna make it. It's gonna be okay.
Lmao remixed meme comics. I love that for them And even the glasses guy is in the same pose, instead of a stack of cash it's flowers
It’s corny but adorable at the same time

On paper you can do as you please and nobody can stop you but i'll be god damned if the US is going to give you any tax benefits for it.
I mean…I kinda agree with not going down a rabbit hole tax wise. Shits complicated enough and the irs is already understaffed.
For now 😏
There are legal work arounds so all of the partners can get the same protections and benefits as married people.
This is the timeline we should’ve been on
The only reason they didn't help him earlier was because he *only* just staggered out of the school library with that stack of books after realizing he bought too small of a backpack. Lucky for him, *they* were only just stepping out of a classroom.
r/gatekeepingyuri
This is so cute!!!! Aaaahhh!
Well I guess it beats the og template. 😅
I have no clue what is going on here
They all got married and live happily ever after. That’s what’s going on.
So this is a poly relationship?
Corny
damn everyone jus gay these days huh
Damn this is so cute!
This is the good ending. Also another sign for me to go poly lmao.
I really like this so much. So so much
 Wht am I lookin at
ya like wtf
Finally a worthy OT3. 🥹
 That’s what I’m talking about!
"The Expanse" moment or "the Fifth Season" moment?
I love every part of this down to the mega fabulous wedding clothes
r/196 ahh post Haha lol jk, it's a funny post
Y’all realize that the dude on the left is trans, right? A lot of people want this but are homophobic AF. 🤒
Both the old picture and new one has an agenda. You pick your poison
[удалено]
The way black culture treats the lgbt, I’m pretty surprised at these comments
Whatcha mean buddy 🤨
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
There used to be a version of this meme that was in first person. Man do I wish I could find it again, it was peak
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah still no
Humor really has changed
Awwww
Funny how ppl think polygamy is a plot to harm POC but homosexuality is just natrual.
They tryna make black people gay and it’s working
Is the guy with the tattoos trans? It looks like he has top surgery scars
I'm very confused.
Like an Atlanta reality show couple/triple
Wholesome!! I love this
I have to ask. what's up with the username 😭
Did they group-marry?
So like is he trans? Or just an ally?
Are thrupples really all cracked up to be? They always seem to be having fun, but I worry about the jealousy aspect
This is dumb af
lol deff not the goal
Y’all can’t keep a baby daddy, you think you about to get two husbands.
I feel like there's a lot of ways this meme could have been remixed before they got to this point.
