I think actually a lot of that is because they don't want people to know just how left wing so many of them are. Their whole narrative is anything on the right = racist. I am not saying there are not racists on the right. I believe there are in all fields of view. BUT if you actually look at so many of these "super racists" the media props up they end up being basically fully in agreement with most leftest ideaology.
I think one of Dinesh's movies interviewed that one guy in one of his recent movies. I forget the guy's name but he is one of the big main ones everyone always brings up. It is really hard to watch that and not realize that guy, who the media constantly has called a right wing white supremisist, has nothing politically in common with beliefs of anyone on the right but matches left wing almost totally.
Honestly we need to get back to the point where you accuse someone of something and it is totally proven they lied about it knowingly that they get the same punishment.
Not quite the same here [not him "accusing"] but basically just about the same type of thing.
I just looked that up. I am not even sure what that was. I mean.... you see clearly it is going to be a lady joker and then expect a few funny ways they coould go with it but.... BAM to hey she has too much lipstick on her face and... is normal? Except she also talks too much in interviews?
I mean I am just not even sure where they were trying to go with that comedy-wise... I guess it was supposed to be her feminism was driving all the white men crazy in the office? That is my best theory and probably more thinking than that sketch ever needs to be thought about.
Kinda reminds me of people who recycle certain things that actually have a higher environmental cost to recycle it than just make new stuff [aka: a lot of the stuff people recycle are this way].
They don't look at the full picture at all.
I guess I don't mind it so much if they just find it "gross." That probably implies some other things though.
It always disgusted me just how much every dollar gets taxed like 3 times over at minimum.
I mean it just is wrong. You income is probably effectively taxed at least twice just to get to your pocket. Then, to actually use that income bam sales tax. Honestly it is pretty disgusting and I think wrong to tax at more than one point in that circular sale loop. Either tax on all sales, or on all income, or whatever.
Um don't women tend to need [or at least benefit greatly from] a wider bicycle seat to match the way their bones work due to the wider well whatever bones they are that sit on the seat? I think I read this once.
Sounds like discrimination to me that it isn't the standard seat!!
I got into speed runs way before AGDQ because in a lot of ways they let me see all these weird old games that no one had ever heard about before too many people were doing let's plays and all that of them.
Then AGDQ happened and it was actually pretty cool. I mean heck remember when it was just a room that could fit about 15 people at most at a time? The dudes then were way more awesome.
Then it got WEEEEEIRDDDDD a few years later.... Actually, and while this is different I think there is some overlap with the trans thing here.... what ruined it for me before the trans thing became too intolerable was it was no longer about speed running it seems. It basically became a bunch of people trying WAY too hard to be funny so people would watch their twitch or youtube channel and people who are WAYYY to desperate for attention and almost nothing about the game speedrun anymore. Gosh I remember one time this one runner started yelling at the crowd or something because they were having too much fun and making a few waluigi noises. Man that was awkward watching that live and is kinda where the whole thing started to go downhill to me.
Heck half the time [and I give this a pass if it was a donation incentive, but often isn't] they will just intentionally lose massive amounts of time to "show off" tricks in the game. Look, I get they probably were not going to get a new record but at least make it look like you are trying to or why am I even watching you half-ass a speed run.
I think this is one of the areas it became a big attraction to the trans people too. It became a big attentionwhore fest potential, but pretty crappy, youtubers and twitchers. Sometimes you still get someone in there who seems to actually be the old style speed runner but pretty rare.
I am sorry. Not really related to your post or about what you said directly.... just a little observation...
But when they started using the term "Brown" people this whole color thing got really really extra stupid. Black people are no more "black" than white people are "white" short of some rare outliers. They are actually brown skinned, but then you get people who are....less brown called brown now while people who are more brown skinned are not called brown [and I bet you would be racist or something if yous aid it].
Ah this all is so dumb xD
Seriously where did my body my choice go when everyone started passing out the vaccines?
