When you type "Vaush rebuttal", the first video not by Vaush that comes up is a former fan, who, along with the commenters, complain that he's not progressive enough and has "mysognistic" and "American-centric" tendencies.

Enough said

I see now in hindsight that he was always anti-white, but I didn't really see it at the time because he was more subtle back then and he also would gripe about the white guilt movies.

I viewed him as one of the lone brave truth tellers, particularly about feminism and women.

What a fall from grace he turned out to be. Brave is not how I'd describe Bill Burr.

I rarely am embarrassed for liking someone. In middle school, I, like all other middle schoolers at that time, thought Dane Cook was hilarious. Now I don't think he's the worst thing ever like he's made out to be, but I can see that it was more about perfect timing with Dane Cook. I was the exact right age for Dane Cook to be hilarious to me. I don't feel embarrassed because I understand the timing.

With Bill Burr, he actually makes you embarrassed you ever recommended him as someone who's "raw" and "tell's it like it is".

I mean it doesn't feel like that long ago I was doing that.

Also the guy who always said the government wants to eliminate people and drastically reduce the population goes all in for the vax and says people who don't get it are conspiratorial and whatever.

Has anyone so blatantly 180'd as Bill Burr?

You know how they view the past as America being white centric or Euro-centric. Most of the movies were all white casts in the 50-60s and earlier, and they called that Eurocentric.

No that's just the natural result of a majority culture producing art. When those guys who make those funny action movies in Africa on those super cheap budgets, I don't for a second think that they're being "Afro-centric". They're a bunch of Africans who are black who are making movies using the people most around them.

That's what you expect and do see everywhere. In the 1960s and earlier the US black population was very small and people didn't have this retarded idea of equal representation, whatever that's supposed to mean so writers would write based on what their culture was like and things that formed their experience.

Now fast-forward to what they do now, the new Assassin's Creed being just the latest example, that literally IS afro-centric. They accused America in the past of doing something unnatural when it was the natural thing for people who write a story to it be based on THEIR culture, and use that as an excuse to do an actual unnatural thing which is force a distasteful culture on everybody and everything.

Millennials overuse the word "awesome". It's like the one thing they/we say.

This pizza is awesome. That song is awesome, etc. It totally devalues the word and renders it meaningless.

Gen Z has retarded ebonics slang, like "no cap", "bussin" fr fr", etc.

It should be obvious why that's bad.

Do your part and start incorporating words like rad and groovy into your speech. Tubular is too of it's time and people wouldn't take it seriously. But casually using rad and groovy would become accepted I believe.

We've lost the latitude of language we had in the 90s and earlier to describe things.

Instead, black slang started dominating in the 2000s and has only gotten worse.

Now the only word that isn't ghetto slang that people use is "awesome" or "cool".

Also don't use it in a hipster or ironic way. Just use it like you would normally and people will get used to it.

I know this is a weird question, but let me give you some context. I live with my parents. I live in a place where I can't get anywhere that I want to. No public transport and I don't have a car.

I used to live downtown and took the bus. Back then I had a read on people.

It's been a while since I've interacted with the general public. I see people at receptions for doctors appointments or whatnot, but that's about it.

One thing in the past though is that I could hate the beliefs of someone, yet like them well enough as a person.

I despise feminism, but I felt that individual feminists I could be cordial with and they'd be cordial with me. That most individuals will be friendly on some level and you can connect on some level.

I really truly don't know what people are like now.

I see what they're like on the internet and the news, but that is very unreliable to what the day to day experience is like.

I assume some of you live in cities and interact daily with many different types of people. What is it like "In the real world?" to be a little tongue in cheek.
