Croatia (An objectively better act by far) will probably be treated as the winner by a lot of people in that case - hell, in a lot of comments for his video there's a lot of people saying things like "Who cares about the jury?". The exact same thing happened last year with Finland winning the public vote but Sweden had too much from the jury to be stopped.
I find it even odder that Israel came second in the televote despite the fact that there is a huge hate for the country. Is it another sign that people are brainwashed by globohomo or a massive protest vote against it?
There's rumors that the scoring system will be changed in the future to give televotes more power, at least.
Because gay faggot Discord is arguably as dated and most people still use it because it's popular. I did try Matrix (pretty good alternative) but it seems unlikely that that will ever become popular in the forseeable future.
That sounds like fun. Though, I have been doing Blender guru's tutorials for some time. It seems that this guy might go more into the basics of more advanced functions.
I think it's kinda sad, really, since it reminds me of all the parents complaining about their kids having "Skibidi Toilet Syndrome" after leaving their kids with Ipads and wanting the series kicked off youtube rather than making sure themselves their kids aren't being exploited for content farms or even just not letting the kids use the app without them to watch them.
I can see that a lot of these men might just be trying to come to terms with the fact that they've got no chance of winning the dating game, even if I assume that (even on this site) on this site there are probably a good few men who have come to the conclusion that a marriage will more likely than not make their life worse regardless of their own status, whether that is sour grapes thinking or not. I think the term "Incel" when used as it commonly is refers to a man that is still trying but isn't succeeding due to being unaware of his own failures as a person, hence why it is often thought to be closely related to/synonymous with the white knight, simp and "I'm such a nice guy" archetypes.
And yeah, if you had a bad relationship the first time, it's understandable someone would not want to try again.
I do think some people who dislike MGTOW see them as the same as how you see those who call themselves volcels. That being said, I don't deny there are some men (including on this site) who just aren't interested in relationships for more understandable reasons.
You know, there's something interesting I have noted about the left's reaction to X-men, which I feel to an extent applies to western superheroes in general.
While leftists who like the X-men think of them as an allegory for the civil rights movement, I've heard that those who don't like them see them as the equivalent of a white power group, or feel that they could see themselves as a master race due to how they are sometimes thought of as an evolution of humanity (I don't read a lot of X-men, to be honest, correct me if I am wrong). It's an interesting thought. Similarly, I feel that a lot of the crossing of superhero imagery with alt-right (at least, in the pejorative sense of the left's term) imagery is only really an actual thing in works that mock superhero media like The Boys and Marshall Law, since there seems to be a lot of major Marvel and DC superhero comics who go out the wazoo pandering to the left.
I did once see a headline about the Barbie movie being a Rorschach test of sorts, so I think this could be a similar situation.
I think that the term "volcel" exists for men who just aren't interested for whatever reason. Some people think they are incels who have given up, but the term sounds like it's meant to be closer to MGTOW in spirit.
You know, I have been looking for a good place to say this: I think that if we start seeing the emergence of more and more antisemites on the left due to the Israel-Palestine conflict flaring up again, it might be another blow to the narrative that the media is spreading.
Actually, there might be two warring narratives, and that just isn't good for trust in the media, as it threatens to tear the people who will listen to them apart - Basically, "if you support Palestine, you're an antisemite/terrorist sympathiser" vs "If you support Israel, you're an islamophobe/supporter of genocide".
Yeah. I heard from my brother that much of the balancing was done because they didn't want to scare away Esports players.
I did once hear that the end goal was to have 40 heroes in overwatch's lifespan, and to be honest, I think if it's this bad, then it's well past the time that they stop.
This is to say nothing of how we now have definite confirmation that they canned the PVE content they promised for years.
Hell, to follow up on this, I think that a study that actually goes into the types of games men like vs what women like would reveal such a discrepancy between two different markets - namely, it would reveal that women are more likely to play mobile games (both more than non-mobile centric women and men).
Yes, I think that it will be a lot more complicated and messy than they say it will. If anything, I imagine that one aspect they might overlook is the possibility that people would/will take advantage of the chaos to carry out criminal activity at a time when enforcement of the law would be at it's weakest, regardless of which side they ostensibly (or sincerely) collaborate with.
A few leftists have asked why we (and trump) are now against a ban on tiktok when we were good with it in the past (I think at least a few people here were good with what trump wrote up). I know how common the reverse uno card has been used in arguments a lot these days, but I feel that I could ask why Biden cancelled the original order Trump made and is now implementing something quite similar. I think a more cohesive answer is that this bill is not actually going to ban TikTok, and instead is being used to trojan horse restrictions against websites leftists don't have a considerable amount of control over.
I suspect might be wrong, feel free to say otherwise.
I did post this in the other thread about Eurovision: I am honestly flabbergasted that Israel not only qualified, but also came second in the televote despite the fact that there's a huge amount of protesters going after the israeli government and state. Hell, they apparently got the most 12 points from the most countries. If anything, it shows that there is a lot more support for Israel than the news will have you believe.
