I mean, not really. My desires are even less specific than yours. I just want to be left mostly alone.

That alone means I deserve to die according to my political opponents, and the reality of conflict is that stakes and depths are decided by the more extreme position.

Your choices are to meet them in kind, or to lose.

So yes, the left has yet to shoot at me. But that's 100% a tactical decision not a moral one for them. Pretending otherwise, pretending that we can have a gentleman's conflict is an illusion that ends the exact second they have a clear shot.

Congrats on your moral high ground, ill be sure to ask them to engrave it on your fancy tombstone.

I think it's a gambit pileup.

Kid is absolutely the product of the deep state. But that doesn't for a single second mean that the highest of the high sanctioned this.

The nature of the deepstate is that it isn't conspiracy, it's natural progression of the same types of evil people converging on their version of "justice."

It's inevitable that sometimes things fall out of step. It's important to remember that our enemy isn't a guy ag the top, or a circle of nine or any or that bullshit. Nor is it a hivemind. It's parts aren't always going to act intelligently or even with unity of purpose.

Are they the ultimate fancy quick time event? Is that why I can't enjoy them?

Something I just remembered reading here i think

"X cards in RPGs seem retarded pointless, and stupid. But they suddenly make a ton of sense when you realize that most leftist tables probably have an ACTUAL rapist sitting with them. A problem my tables don't tend to have."

I think you're missing the point. They're the same people. Obi wan didn't "loose his way" he's a spoiled silver spoon fuck.

It's the "who's most evil" question constrained by scope. The only reason Ewan DOESNT kill babies is because it doesn't turn him on. If it did, he would find a way to justify doing it just like he justifies fucking a co star. His self restraint is zero, and so he imagines the rest of humanity is as weak and feckless as him.

It's the same broad formed principle across leftism. They want to teach men not to rape because they recognize that the only thing keeping THEM from raping people is socialization away from it, not any actual moral fiber. In this way they are morally equivalent to being a rapist. There's no moral point scored by being satisfied or placate when "lesser evil"

Writ large. The only reason leftys judge the Holocaust as an evil is because they think that the Jews didnt deserve it. Not that no human does. They view it as a misdirected atrocity, not an evil act by definition.

Which is a far more disturbing and dangerous framework.

All that to say, I don't think he "let himself down" or "lost his way" I think he's just as depraved and evil. His failure to live up to "greater evil" is just a lack of imagination.

Tl;Dr Hang em high.

It's because the people making those accusations actually ARE like that

Ewan McGregor is the easiest and my go to example. During birds of prey he wouldnt shut up even for second about empowering women and men respecting women and this movie is about women who don't need no man and how men need to LEARN to not be so awful to women.

The entire time he's cheating on his wife with Huntress.

The only way to assuage their guilt is to declare their failures to just be human nature. Ah how sublime and enlightened. I'm not a bad person because I do these things, I'm WOKE because I RECOGNIZE my evil. I am of course far better than those who claim to be innocent of my degenerative excess because I ADMIT to it, while they pretend to need no penance. I must INFORM the masses of their evil. And how else could I be expected to gain all this knowledge without participating in cochise fueled piss orgies.

It really is. That's one of the reasons it rings true is how obvious it is in retrospect. It has the "it could never have been any other way" feel

Not having principles other than the ends justify the means makes it very difficult to recognize the value of abiding by principles unto death.

It's honestly rather pathetic. He writes a nihilist reasonably accurately and can't see the nobility that's staring him in the face.

You've actually misjudged bioshock. It's not a critique of randian-ism, it uses rand as a proxy for Jewish populations. Which is why Ryan is portrayed sympathetically, because according to the author, he's tragic not because he's misguided, but because of what he's forced to do.

He's completely justified symbolicly, which is why it gets taken the way you've described it.

But in the eyes of the writer, he agrees that Ryan is the good guy, but for entirely different reasons than you do, which is why the game itself feels slightly off.

No see I LIKED Imp.

Edit: When I'm on sentence 2 and realize it's this guy I either close the thread if he posted it or skip the comment. It's always an overlong circular Mish mash to say nothing. He reminds me of the quartering.

The poor are subhuman remember. Exploiting them is a moral good to the elites. Exploiting lower forms of life is always a moral good.

If something benefits rich women at the expense of poor women it's moral good. If something benefits poor women at the expense of men it's also morally good.

This is the meaning of the "progressive stack" its obvious in the term, but questions like this make me wonder if people actually get it mechanically.

And it's always either A. Some bullshit offscreen thing that happened and so they have to write this stupid ass awkward dialogue "uou KNOW what you did" "I did know. But could never admit to her that I did... THAT" so they can string along a fake mystery.

Or B. They have litterally the most abrupt breakup of all time. I think of the Fear Itself one where Kitty and Piotr break up. Like literal child sweethearts that make Emma Frost sick and she dumps him at the drop of at hat because he "sacrifices himself to save the world to much"

He's not you fucking idiot. Jefferson litteraly and explicitly did not belive in the Bible to the point that he wrote his own version that removed all the miracles as pish pash.

Ben Franklin was an agnostic whore.

Washington was basically the only one who could be considered devout by any means.

I've said before lethn is the most recognizable poster on site by writing pattern (apologies to imp) and I absolutely mean it as an insult.

I mean you can write a formula and people do, because they're responding to a formula that is the algorithm.

It's a loop to be sure. But the fact of it all is that even when constrained, "The Market" as a force of nature is POWERFUL.
