There was a point around the early 90s where blacks were genuinely trying. TV shows touted respectability, music hadn't been weaponized (remember we're all in the same gang!), and racism was seemingly decreasing as a slew of films tried to point out the futility of racism. It seemed possible and there was an air of optimism that one day our differences wouldn't matter anymore.
Then came hip-hop. The messages reversed. The street life was real shit and one could only achieve status through the thug life. Fast forward through Obama's race baiting, media's rage-stoking, and everything else that defines the fatigue meme that put the feeling into words and the world has become a mess.
Not seeing race has become a liability. It's a straight up disadvantage. It's pervaded every aspect of life, from being preferred for employment to courtroom justice. It's an innocence that we can no longer afford.
I think about this a lot. Joan of Arc, gathering a small army, eventually driving back and resasserting French control over their own lands. That an untrained girl felt the will of God behind her and won unlikely victory again and again. And now today France is handed to this heathen army without a fight. What was it all for? Is there an expiration date on divine decree? They need another Joan badly.
When a term disparages a revenue-generating system that benefits their bottom line, they take it pretty fucking personally.
There was a game announced in the 90s called The Forgotten. It was canceled for whatever reason but the gist was that the world had a superhero team like the Justice League who had cleaned up the whole world, defeated their enemies, and years later went full Justice Lords and decided things were better run with them in charge.
One of the villains they'd believed they'd killed had survived and has woken up a decade later. Now it's on him to organize resistance, hunt them down, and get revenge. Handled correctly, this could be great.
It's only a matter of time before half the country burns to the ground anyway.
Needs elves. Not necessarily to exist but for other races to constantly point to when citing great examples of successful and fair culture while pointing out the flaws in human civilization. Nevermind that elvish culture never had to make huge, constant, expensive concessions accommodating orcs, goblins, vampires, and whatever other incompatibles.
I sincerely hope and pray that she sees an improvement in the migrant situation over there within her lifetime.
God damn. The neo-nazis need to refocus on the eugenics efforts.
The game proudly features mental illness as a gameplay mechanic. Whether this is a self-insert is unclear but it would explain a lot.
Cater to gamers and the incels you believe they are, and your game will sell. You'll do great. Make a game for people you wish played games, kiss your job goodbye. They don't exist. Blame the journalists, the reddit mods, the out of touch studio heads who never owned a gaming console. The gaming community at large, more than any other group, loves to watch their haters fail. They live for a good hate bandwagon. You are in the wrong space, not them.
When their dreams are that Mohammed the prophet keeps his promises so long as they do his bidding, we have every right to scorn them the same way they scorn us.
Man, they really have a thing for cutting heads off. I wonder what the common factor is.
"Ay cuh, just breathe the reggalar air, not the fumed air."
I hate everything about this announcement and how it's presented. The boring corporate logo on another techy informant X account. The word "equity" thrown around as if it implies actual equity. The second-hand social media announcement that should have everyone asking "whose public?"
So much of their 'outrage' wasn't even that they thought he was innocent, it was about him getting off Scott-free and proving that blacks can do literally anything they want to white people with no consequence or having to explain a thing.
Paul Bettany's Dog
Considering the last Bond movie was threatening to make a sassy black woman his replacement, we're fortunate he's still white, male, and heterosexual.
If anything, I thought the scar on his face like Dr Evil was a bit off, but seeing how it's slowly healing over the course of the game, this is minor.
White women will do the job just as badly. If they don't, his lawyers will just appeal because there were no blacks on the jury.
This would be like giving your car keys to a full-time car thief and expecting them to be responsible with it and actually return it.
Yes, glorify their past. Marvel at their false accomplishments. Now you're obligated to excuse the present-day reality that they're constantly proving themselves to be hateful, violent, untrustable, and parasitic.
He's inadvertently doing an antisemitism. You know who else made lists and seized property from our greatest allies?!
A.
It looks like pretentious, modern-day slop.
When you have elitist douchebag shot callers like Fauci in positions of power at the organizations that handle the cash allotments, money tends to get diverted to less savory and less ethical studies that nobody would ever donate to. Cancer cures and sick kids are the golden goose when it comes to pulling at heartstrings but experiments on breeding mosquitoes and man-made, deployment-ready apocalyptic flu bugs don't bring it in.
So they're also officially "beliefs police" if they can fire based on that.
