Usually civil wars happen in countries with surplus of young males.

Having a surplus of young males is bad 9/10 times for any country. Civil War is just the worst form of those consequences.

Because when you have too many men who have no sexual outlet, no future to look forward to, and too many friends to compete with, it always ends in increasing violence until they cull themselves. Its unfortunately within our instincts to act that way.

Its also why harems/polygamy is so very bad. Because it artificial creates that surplus by removing communities worth of women from the equation.

He is physically unable to control his laughter in stressful moments, to a point where he is shown to be coughing from the pain and lack of breath by the end of it. He had a fucking card to hand out for it because it happens so often and gets him into extreme trouble (which is how he ends up shooting those guys).

That precludes him from the vast majority of sectors of society because he might physically cease to function if stressed. Which means he is more disabled than anyone with Down Syndrome and many other things we give out disability for.

Though given how retarded you seem to be, I can see why he seems super functional from your position.

No, that's what people who write memes about the Joker think.

He isn't "lol so random, always do the opposite thing CHAOS" like post Ledger people think. He creates incredibly complex plans towards goals and is shown to regularly have a stable set of ideas and principles.

Heck his crossover with Carnage (a character meant to embody literal random chaos) had the two of them split because he hated Carnage's inability to be productive and accomplish tasks, while Carnage mocked him for being far too orderly.

Harley only works because she was a caricature of a real person we all know.

A retarded girl who keeps dating a very abusive guy and helping him be evil until she loses all her sympathy and isn't any better than him despite being a victim. We've all met that girl, and a lot of people even got burned trying to save her.

Once she "emancipated" herself from him to be strong and independent, it stopped being relatable because that never fucking happens.

Or maybe we aren't interested in seeing another "character" who plays "nose on nose off" like John Stewart to dodge around criticism.

But if you are correct when are we supposed to take him seriously? Does he come with a manual about when its a joke or when its sincere political opinions? Or is just just when he gets pushback that it suddenly "just comedy bro" for him to say the exact same lines our enemies do?

I just don't think they really understood how good of a choice he was

Most people didn't know who he was until the day he was picked. That's where the disconnect here is. They went "who? I don't know with this curry muncher" and needed him to prove themselves to them, while you are far more plugged in to this to know way more.

You won't hear disagreement from me on that. I don't even understand how anyone could defend half of the retarded design decisions like weapons with durability so low that its blatant padding other than "its zelda so its awesome."

Tears just proved how empty it was by releasing the same game a second time with a bad crafting system stapled on and woah, magically its a boring empty game this time somehow!

I don't think anyone should be held down for being leery of a choice after Pence snaked on us and the Right wing is filled with RINOs and other forms of disappointment like DeSantis.

By this point though, we have considerable proof that Vance can at least rumble and accomplish tasks that should benefit us, so if they still doubt they are being foolish.

One of the strengths of the original was showing how women can be just as toxic on a man's life as any other man could be. From a "fake empathy" therapist who pretends to care until she isn't paid to do so, to a mother who spends an entire life only thinking of herself and her "missed chance" for greatness (by babytrapping a rich man). Neither were "evil" but their damage was no less powerful and destructive on his psyche than the men who literally beat or bullied him.

So by the very notion of "give him a hot gf" the sequel was proving they had no intention of keeping any relatability or value. Every other detail of it, kept that desecration going.

That was my thought as well.

Every single bit of information that came out about it demonstrated more and more that it was made for a completely different audience than the original. An original that functioned entirely as a self-contained piece and left very little actual wriggle room for a sequel that didn't change massively.

It doesn't matter who did it. What matters is that it happened and had a tangible effect on the game. And by removing the emulators they cut the flow at the most central junction to stem that tide from happening again.

All "piracy" industries, no matter how justified, exist based on being too small or too inconsequential to be worth the time or effort to stamp out. Tears broke that, and now everyone deals with the fallout of it. The "content creators" who spammed videos about it pre-launch making a lot of noise are the only ones who hold any actual responsibility for this happening, and they are the ones skirting away from this.

Also its not overrated because literally no one even remembers it exists. It was a flash in the pan with no staying power and its already forgotten. Overrated was Breath of the Wild, which inspired them to make such a garbage game to begin with.

It was always inevitable when emulation was heavily responsible for one of their "infallible" franchises falling far below expectations. The writing was on the wall when Tears of the Kingdom was leaked weeks in advance and then before release date already had a shit ton of negative press from all over.

They are still shits for constantly releasing garbage games built on gimmicks and have no one to blame but themselves for it happening truly, but threatening a Corpos' money is one of the biggest motivators for them to start throwing weight around and closing up grey areas around their belly.

Ha ha. Project much?

I didn't think "if business no make money business don't stay open" was very complex, but since you seem so it puts your inability to grasp a point into perspective.

But I should have known you were firing on zero cylinders when you said "insurance will cover it." Because that's the funniest idiocy I've seen in weeks.

You get nothing and your neighbor gets a $500 TV for free because you're concerned over the long-term consequences which will inevitably happen anyway because the market says take the free TV?

Yes, niggers (we are free to say it here, you don't have to be scared to say it) have impulse control problems which lead to constant issues cropping up for their life. They've been doing it for so long that those "long-term consequences" have already started and are happening regularly. That's why no one likes them.

But you've also backpedaled from "its not even capitalism" to "its morally bankrupt bad capitalism I don't like" so I'll accept your concession.

Yeah but it let him whine about how somehow wanting to be paid makes you equal to niggers who steal.

How can we defeat such well thought out logical thinkers?

We are only just getting to the point where Wrestling fans feel safe even admitting to existing without feeling embarrassed, so it'll be sometime yet before people can come around to "the goofy gimmicks were actually the best fucking part."

Unfortunately, in order to reach that level we also had to let in a lot of CM Punk types who jam it full of wokeism and people embarrassed to be seen as non-progressive. So its a mixed bag.

Its not difficult, its just trying to dodge what I said by pulling it into increasingly complex discussions. Its the the classic MO of someone who caught themselves in cognitive dissonance and is trying to run around it.

Economically speaking why should a person not take free goods?

Because the long term consequences of doing such is the business closes down and then the neighborhood is left without any access to such goods. As we see happening across most ghettos.

For the same reason the gas guy is making 0$ for the other 6 days of the week after his entire supply is emptied because the entire chain is disrupted and he will be needing those increased profits during the first day to offset that.

There is no morality needed, which is why I didn't deny the gas guy is still probably a shit. Its basic logic and reasoning. Helped by the fact that I've lived through dozens of hurricanes and can verify my position with actual experience instead of "well philosophically speaking" nonsense.

Undertaker was popular because he had a gimmick that was really cool to kids, and he embodied it enough that it never came across as cringe. And then he kept it well into the era where every single wrestler was "MUSCLE DUDE #12" with no ability to distinguish them beyond their boring personalities (like HHH).

Watching him and Kane do wild shit in the ring is inherently more interesting than almost anything from the post-Attitude era, and it was strong enough to carry him through his retarded Biker gimmick.

Add in that he was never revealed to be controversial or difficult to work with, so nobody ever had a reason to hate him personally.

That's a lot of fancy words to try and talk your way around the fact that the literal supply is dropping to near zero, which is driving up the literal demand and the price reflects accordingly.

But considering you already tried the "they have insurance!" line people used to defend niggers just a few short years ago, its clear you just think its (D)ifferent when its something you don't like.

can't refill his tanks then there's not a competitive marketplace

Its literal dwindling supply driving up demand. Its the most basic form of capitalism on full display.

Considering its the South the only Indias in any town all own gas stations.

So if he is coming to that guy to buy gas, its because he is taking it back to his own to sell it for markup.

People were unable to ration ahead of time because of the biggest limited resource of all, time. This is especially a problem in areas that don't get hurricanes regularly, because they don't have full storages setup prior and by the time they know to need it, everyone else also does, and then need dozens of different things to survive (gas is the bottom of that list for anyone with a brain).

Every major hurricane has mile long lines at every single gas station for days. Which means you need someone with no job to sit in that line and hope that they get there before it runs out.

If you physically ration it, then you waste a large amount of time arguing with people who will fight and push against it all day which limits the amount of people who get gas. If you price raise it, then people are forced to ration themselves and get out faster, which increases the amount of gas that goes around.

While also maintaining the gas station's profit margin to keep it open. Because they will absolutely be taking huge losses on Day 2 when they have no fucking gas left and nobody is coming by for anything else because they are locked in their house. That big injection gets bled out for days until life returns to normal and the supply chain gets sorted and they make a much smaller profit, if any at all.

Again, its a complex issue with a lot going on that is a lot bigger than "those fucking Indians are screwing us!" and "lolberts."

I think the existence of the word nigger and the power it holds in society says that blacks absolutely are that sensitive and fragile.

There is an entire legion of self-hating black liberals. They are the token on every news site and every academic program and they keep these offended trains running every day.

Al Sharpton literally made an entire career out of being outraged by things like this.

Its also always the people with cheap generators that burn a gallon+ per hour to keep their whole house turned on to return to their normal lives.

This is a discussion after every single literal hurricane that has ever happened of any major merit. Including all the Journohawks and Grifter youtubers hopping in to moralize and treat it like some horrific crime that they cannot believe. Literally, it happens every like 3 years in at least one of the States and has been for as long as I've been alive.

But the majority of people buying gas after a hurricane are trying to power a generator. Generators are not effecient devices, nor are they cheap. Anyone who wants to use one will need a shit ton of gas, meaning the demand has suddenly sky rocketed to levels that cannot be kept up with (and resupply is almost certainly a struggle given the flooding and other damages).

Price raising is in effect rationing it to the customer, because now people will only buy a smaller amount and leave some for the next guy. If kept at normal prices, the first 3 guys in line would just buy out the entire supply to keep their lights on while the entire town is in darkness.

Because the other event that always happens is that gas stations have mile long lines for the gas pumps, which means pre-emptive rationing likely failed for a lot of people who just couldn't afford the time to wait an entire day in line hoping it didn't run out.

And because the resupply trucks are slower, more in demand everywhere, and often cannot even access many gas stations, that means after Day 1 when he gets record profits, the gas station owner is now making 0$ for however many days it takes to get a new supply. Balancing out that dollar gain.

Basically, its a complex issue that has a lot of working factors of which greed is only a portion. And because of that people who don't live in the South should shut the fuck up and stay out of things they don't understand.
