I dislike the nonchalant acceptance of it all that I see getting perpetuated in online discourse.

Its literally the only option available to men short of forcefully removing rights from women. They aren't going to vote themselves back into the kitchen.

So unless you are ready to promote some extreme gender violence to buck break them back into the correct form, which I'm here for but I doubt you are, then the two choices men have are to accept reality as it is or drive themselves insane pretending its not.

In the urban areas? Its probably all guys cooking meth running some sort of operation rather than what you'd consider a "gang" in your head.

White gangs are usually a trailer park thing, much like black gangs stay to their ghettos, and in those you can find all sorts of fun ones.

I don't know if White dudes ever just decide to assault some woman on the street in crime of opportunity.

The bottom pits of white trash absolutely do, but that's part of poverty making men much more equal. I've seen it happen, usually while they are drunk or high as a kite, and its awful for everyone because 50% of the time if you "help" she will turn on you for hurting "her man." I think anyone whose family comes from the trailer park either has a few of those types of men either in the clan or living near them.

The roving packs and obscene violence aspect however is not very common to the non-browns. Its usually entirely an angry lowered inhibition move, rather than a stone cold sober brutality.

Tbh, I only noticed once I saw upvote symbols, meaning I had already been here.

Your singular fake anecdote is meaningless to every single metric in the real world

Damn, I didn't know my eyes were not in the real world. My daughter's school that closed due to lack of attendance was a hallucination and I've been driving her to the new one for no reason. My company's cleaner just disappeared coincidentally and was replaced with a white dude.

I suppose the smarter men are the ones that just believe what they see on the internet (that fits with thier preconceived notions) instead.

I can give that one a half point, in that them being rich finance bros is a demographic that actually exists. The entire reason why American Psycho works is because of how commonplace that group once was.

Where the fuck has this whole notion that city mayors should be going anywhere overseas?!

The Mayors of places like LA and NYC consider themselves on par with the heads of state, because technically the hold domain over something bigger than most countries. Its been a problem for a while, honestly. Cali in particular has Mayors getting involved in International Affairs regularly and undermining the rest of the country to do so.

Its why there was that amusing moment a few days ago when the governor of NY (people always forget that NYC is just a single city in the whole state) said she wouldn't approve a bunch of Mamdani's proposals so they weren't possible, yet he kept talking like he would be the new President with ultimate power.

It and the memes from it have never stopped being relevant and topical, some are even more so than they were then.

Wait a minute, I'm white! Haha!

is literally all you need somedays to just brush all this stress off and let go of things that don't matter.

some rapists who are, unsurprisingly, all white

Reminds me of in the new Robert Pattinson Batman movie they open on a low level gang doing some random violence on a subway. And every single one of them is overtly and extremely white, down to the face paint they are wearing and the redneck phenotype. Just committing feral level violence while hooting like animals.

The only one who isn't all in on it is the one black one, who just coincidentally only has half his face painted so you can see he is in fact the black one. Unlike the white guys there is no monkey business going on with him and he is shown to be a scared, kind guy caught up in their evil.

It was so blatant that it physically made me laugh out loud, its such an inversion of reality that its comical.

That was 5 years ago, check the date on the live page. Do you think reddit has improved since 2020?

Hey, they also took "we don't need to make anything fun, just give them a bunch of random stuff and they will pretend they are inventing it" from it. Which is why TOTK is literally the same empty sandbox, except now you got generic crafting on top of it that even further makes the game a joke.

too focused on the big picture

You'd think after watching Trump get stalled by various nobody Mayors, random Judges and loser Police Chiefs/Sheriffs people would have noticed that just "letting the federal sort it out" is a losing strategy.

Because even if we assume the best case scenario of his intentions and plans, this year has shown that he can be stalled constantly by people far down the chain just not following orders or outright doing illegal shit on their own to obstruct. The big picture means nothing without the details that make it up, and the Right has historically failed to show up for smaller elections.

With the exception of the old ass boomers who'll be there at first light to vote for their favorite McConnell-esque golem, which is why we keep having situations like this. The only Right-wing anything voting is the people we complain about, but the numbers keep showing people failing to actually do anything about it in their local/state elections.

There we go, look forward to seeing your goal post move.

Reminder that its a-okay to kill yourself anytime, my nigger. Heck, doing it via cop means you could be the change you want to see in the world!

We tried proof last time remember? You called me insane and that my own life wasn't real.

You aren't a serious enough person to deserve direct confrontation. But it is good to know we are hurting your little ego each time you get called out.

Or he will accuse you of being a liar who is trying to trick and psyop him, and demand that the mods ban you for daring to question him.

Its odd, because BOTW is such a lackluster game filled with poor design, but it has the foundation to build great games out of. You certainly need a lot of effort to make an open world that feels right, but Ubisoft slop showed how you can crank that out and still make money for a long while.

I think a big part was the dreads, which were a huge talking point at the time of black people trying to claim ownership over. Basically half the discussion around the game involved Killmonger references.

It was just a poor design choice that killed it before it had a chance.

Immortals Fenix Rising was a shockingly good original IP they made a few years back, that basically improved in all ways over BOTW that it was copying (unless you hate the quippy narration and dialogue a lot).

And it just flopped immediately due to minimal marketing and was abandoned.

Everyone whose played it said it was great, and it seems that the "We Wuz" trailer and character design ruined that for them.

Martin's works got popular as a reaction to lesser writers aping the very thing you are trying to hype.

What good is ennobling, of goodness or any positivity when its unearned? Subversion and "anyone can die randomly" resonates when you have become used to "and everyone lived happily ever after, all the good guys survived against the odds." Its speaking to you because the standard has become inorganic and lacks any inspiration.

Tolkien's work is so beautiful because it didn't shy away from consequences while still being simple "goodness triumphs over evil." The Shire doesn't remain safe, Frodo is mangled and broken even in his victory, and if that Fellowship didn't have courage enough to fight back despite some of them being completely ill prepared to do so the whole world would have been such.

But for quite a while in our media's history, instead it was "power of friendship/love will win!" and much other generic feel goodery without much loss that makes you take for granted so much of what makes those stories beautiful in the first place. You could draw no wonder and inspiration from it because it felt fake, characters were guaranteed to win or succeed and even their "consequences" felt tacked on instead of true.

Martin's work is trash, but its trash that got big because it was a symptom of our media's greater rot. Which was poor writers thinking "happy ending" or "good message" was enough to justify showing their low skilled nonsense to the masses.

but she keeps defying the odds

Almost like being a black woman gives you a huge leg up in every arena whether you openly use it or not.

I wish these faggots would stop trying to make me like Fuentes.

Fuentes is so inorganic that this is almost certainly intentional.

He was falling into complete irrelevance and now "suddenly" he is on Tucker and getting acknowledged by all sorts of big names as a real thing again that must be defeated or defended.

Companies I've worked for in the past have had no such regulations, they simply wanted to filter out as many customers as possible. Ironically, the ones that got through were usually the most angry, or became such because of the process, meaning they couldn't be helped in any satisfying way anyway.

It was entirely so the people in charge of answering the customers could also wear multiple other hats and cut the amount of employees down to "if one person calls out the whole operation falls apart" levels.

Like always, the government and the corporate are competing to see who can fuck each other into letting them be on top, and at the end of the day the person who actually needs something is left in the middle holding whatever is left.

Not even just regulation, just sheer time wasting to get you to give up and leave them alone.

I think almost all of us have called a business to get a problem sorted, only to spend hours trying to wrangle an automated robot voice to eventually give up and connect us to a live person who fixes the problem in 2 minutes. Unless the robot lady connected us to the wrong department and now its double the hold time. Or an Indian with an accent so thick you cannot understand a single word.

I think this shows that even without regulation, they would still obfuscate everything in a similar manner just to avoid taking any responsibility or having to hire extra help. The regulations might have started the issue, but most of them are pretty comfy using them as cover for their own incompetence a lot of the time.
