Nobody is saying Covid-vaccines are "perfectly safe" for pregnant women.

Pregnant women are told the state of the science, may get vaccines while pregnant if they wish, and the results are being tracked (and so far the results for mRNA vaccines have been terrific).

And there are boatloads of studies showing the risk of alcohol to unborn fetuses.  What kind of crazy false equivalency is this?

False equivalence an misrepresentations are how memes are used to brainwash and manipulate.

Wait, what?  I don't know if this is a religious meme or an atheist meme.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I guess. Not every religious person wears shitty T-shirts.

No guessing needed.

"If you subtract the truth from life you're left with God."  Ergo God is a lie, he is all falsehood.

It's a gnostic meme. God is not just a myth, he's literally the opposite of all truth! 😄

I should make memes.  I'm just as disingenuous as the next guy.  I think I would make a good propagandist.

Um they are saying that is what the shirt says, that is how lame the shirt is. It is a joke. Jeez.

Not how I parsed it. I read it as only the first line (God + truth = life) and the rest is the memer making fun of it.

Granted, the format leaves it a bit ambiguous, but I'd assume that I the entire text after the initial colon was supposed to be on the t-shirt, then it would say "you" instead of "they".

Also, it seems more in line with usual meme formats of taking one line by someone else (real or imagined) and then mocking it.

Right.  That way makes sense.  The other way makes no sense.
