It's more the callous nature of it optically that a cake takes precedence over, you know, your resident's security and then focus on fare dodging over the REASON for the crime.

It might have been sidelined thanks to the zero coverage by media but thanks to Elon and Twitter/X, EVERYONE is aware of it.

Redirecting the discussion towards “fare dodging” reminds me of all the post-mortems coming out of Hollywood after the summer box office bombed. Lefty industry analysts can’t admit that feminist writing destroyed popular IP, so the race is on to manufacture more politically correct causes for the undeniable decline.

When the answer to “what happened” is an uncomfortable truth that shatters the left’s insane worldview, then the “investigation” must necessarily become a farce. I imagine a Naked Gun style police detective staring at the ceiling trying to find the cause of death while there’s a bloody knife between his feet.

Leftists pull this same bullshit with Disparate Impact Theory.

“There’s a disparity in outcomes between these two groups. We need to investigate why this is happening.”

“Maybe there’s a difference between the groups that accounts for the disparity?”

“No, that can’t be it because I’ve already decided that everyone is the same. The only explanation is unfair discrimination.”

“So your totally legitimate ‘investigation’ has led you to the conclusion that white people are racist. Convenient.”

Great minds... The first thing that came to my mind when I saw this post was Drebin telling Nordberg's wife "I promise you, whatever scum did this, not one man will rest for one minute until he is behind bars" before turning to Ed and saying "Now let's grab a bite to eat."

The left is truly beyond parody.

I work in the mortgage industry and disparate impact is absolutely reviled as a concept.

Its a "hard stop" maneuver. You interrupt an incredibly emotional event, where tempers will raise and thoughts runaway as it goes on, with a complete nonsense thing that causes the "jolt" of how odd it is to basically derail the train that people's emotions are running.

Its a very useful manipulation technique, brought from Anger Management psychology and helpful for dealing with spouses (where 'winning' is still losing often). And like most things Leftist, its now being maliciously applied to prevent anyone from questioning them.

Its especially effective if you give them some positive emotion to replace the gap with, especially a subconscious one like food or sex.

Nah, it's just blacks celebrating the death of innocent whites.

The mayor is a jogger, just in case anyone was wondering.

Progressives are incapable of admitting their malignant moral vanity ever causes problems, so they just don't, even in the face of savage violence.

The last person who said “Let them eat cake” didn’t fare too well.

Point taken, but Marie Antoinette never said that. That alleged quote was reported by Rousseau before she had even been born.

Does Arch always talk like this or is he hamming it up?

I was listening to another video of his recently and turned it off because I found it so grating.

I could've sworn I've heard him guest on SideScrollers with Stuttering Craig and sound normal.

He's said he learned English mostly by consuming English media decades ago, and ended up absorbing the accent and mannerisms more or less by osmosis.

I've always found it amusing to hear a native Norwegian sound like a posh Englishman.

Listening to Arch tends to throw me off(not a fan of his voice and mannerisms, personally, even if I agree with his take).

Then someone pointed out that he's ESL, and after I bluescreened and recovered, basically shrugged and decided he could talk however the hell he wanted, if he's that good at speaking English.

Probably more he's just pissed off at it, Carl is the same where he can talk normally on the Lotus Eaters as he's live with guests but on his private channel he can reveal how pissed off he is about it all and vent a little.

Of course. Any gamer knows that cake and grief counselling are always made available after the mission.
