Sounds like a traditional communist to me. There's an element of nationalism and in-group bias within communism. What we have growing today is really less of communism and more of a globalist oligarchy.
I generally go for moving as much as possible to the states even if that means some other state would do something I don’t like.
She’s a woman, it’s always about forcing everyone to do what they want. It’s no different than how the Democrats work, or how women work really. Repeal the 19th.
Yeah, Tolkien couldn’t have overlooked anything. That’s one of the reasons I’m not more in to the books, they are so ridiculously over-detailed. He didn’t put trannies or black elves or whatever they want to say he overlooked in because he wasn’t a brainwashed moron.
If he was a Christian, then he would have accepted what happened to him as consequences of his actions.
No Christian should idolize anything and they should be vigilant against lies and propaganda. I'm going to guess this is one of those "the power of Jesus love is just so strong you can just be sinful and you're ok because of love"
In a lot of ways it comes down to I have enough to watch anyway. They cut my interest by making crap to the point that I cut TV out so much and they will never get that time back.
I'm starting to feel like some of it is a ploy to draw you in, then like the Mandalorian it will turn to shit. If it turns out it's a single season show and it has a story that is appropriate as such, I'll watch it someday. For now, I just don't want to offer time to something they will screw with me later on.
I do think the others are right too, the bar has been lowered. I was sitting around with my Dad over the weekend with some old TV shows on, and I can't stop thinking watching them "can't say that anymore", "could you imagine a show today letting them do that", etc.
Luckily I'm not allergic to them, so within an hour of being around them, I don't even know they were there.
I’m not positive it it is still that way, but way back when there was TheDonald.win and nothing else it worked like that here. I was arguing with someone about the dangers of modern online “stealth” censorship versus old school print censorship from the Soviet type days. They tried to pull some sort of smack down argument on me and block me, and I wasn’t allowed a retort. I actually discussed with the admin but and he’d talked about changing, but I’ve never tested again. Most people on these forums aren’t such pussies to use it anyway.
Yeah I don’t think bullying was ever a benefit in the traditional sense. The bullies were the apes of the school and were as small a group as the nerds. The reality with nerds, is the vast majority were passive on them at best, it’s just the few bullies that needed something weak to mess with. Modern nerd stuff being ruined is because nerd things were pushed into popular space and has nothing to do with a luck of bullies.
What we really need back is what I’ll call ostracizing. The people that the majority of the school sneered about. These were the slut girls, the fags, etc. When I was in school, no one liked these people. They weren’t necessarily bullied in the traditional sense, but they were the joke among almost all of their peers. Now, they are forced or brainwashed to accept those as normal.
“ Where’s your net!? ”, says the fat woman on a motorized chair. “I wear my mosquito net to protect you, you wear yours to protect me. You aren’t caring for my health!”
I attract mosquitoes almost comedically badly, and I would not be staying inside over a horse disease. They will soon have to change the name to E pox or something, because AOC will be offended for her horse face to be associated with this.
Whores are going to whore
I’ve never had an IQ test, so I’m just going to assume I’m stupid. Hey, all the more reason to push myself to learn more! Some have called me smart, yet others have called me smartass. Perhaps it’s both, or perhaps it’s neither.
Whether or not I care to be defined as “smart,” I will say I do have an uncanny ability to understand complex things as if they were simple. easily—machines, electronics, and the like. But I’m also not great with people in real-time verbally, meaning any of the wit I have when I have the time to think about a response is nonexistent, and it’s replaced with frustration. I also have about as much athletic ability as a rock. So, I mean take whatever aptitudes I have and decide for yourself if I’m smart or not.
Edit: Oh and I use my memory as a crutch. People around me know that when I say I remember something I AM right, always. There’s no ambiguity in my mind. Either I remember in detail or I don’t. Anything else, I’m lying. Yes, I often lie about things I actually remember, because sometimes the level of detail I remember would freak people out. Take my memory away, and I’m a shell of my former self.
parody vibe
I didn’t have the words for what I saw, but that’s it. At least a parody would be funny. I’m pretty sure this is supposed to be serious.
would rip their own balls off if it stopped Trump winning
C’mon, you know they’d do that anyway.
Satanists "struck" to be in the presence of Satan and argumentative and spiteful of followers of God. Fitting.
I'm not well versed in any of Star Trek lore at all so any bastardization of that will be lost on me. So all I see is absolutely dreadful writing, casting, acting, and music.
As soon as she finds one with enough money, she will toss aside her aversion for video games instantly for all but the most repulsive obsessed cucked men, which would be leftist anyway.
Oh and I find fake blond hair and horse face not at all attractive, so...
religion of Peace & Quiet
All the way up until they start blasting 5 minutes of dreadful moaning sounds full blast all across the cities five times a day.
Yeah, they didn't make anything worth buying and they can't admit it. I have no expectation of recreating the wheel for every game, but it's just so generic. I could download hundreds of ROMs that would be easy to run and likely offer a better experience.
You know how it is, it's none different than the demands to X from major governments. We demand you ban speech we don't like. It's not politics, it's banning Nazis. This is about human decency. etc.
They want Steam to not allow any negative discourse with respect to current thing.
My guess with AAAs is stock price manipulation and/or outside investment from the Blackrocks of the world. It's far too obvious to just send them a bribe, but to quietly imply that they will hire Sweet Babies or some other such firm or the cash inflow from Blackrock to their stock price will stop, that's all it takes.
I'm not so sure about any government payout to indies. The developers are just woke. I can almost see the office buttsex from watching the trailer. It's a game made by artists. I could make 2D character movement and projectiles in a weekend in Godot, and half the work is done and I just need some art. Much of the other things like parallax scrolling is built in.
I'm not even saying that is a bad thing for it to be a simple game. I like the idea. But it is missing the charm of what it aims to copy, particularly in the character design. They all look kinda just, gay. I've seen more than my share of pixel characters of old (and typically Japanese) and they don't.
justification for pirating our game
Not the right method in my opinion. Don't pirate the woke games, rather not play them at all.
Oh, and they should have just left pronouns out. It's not normal. Besides any avoidance of woke, pronouns are a red flag that the creators of the game are idiots and the game is shit.
Yeah, I haven't actually followed enough of the new stuff, I know I've seen some shades of "was the Sith really that bad?"
I guess my argument was more when it was new and not in George Lucas retrospective. There is tension in the original trilogy as a first time watcher, you expect good to win, but you don't know. Luke is about to be killed mere seconds before the destruction of the Death Star, and mere minutes before the end of the film. There's already been conflict and failure in the movie to keep you thinking, Obi Wan was killed, etc. It's so different from the "woo hoo, the hero is here to kick ass and chew bubblegum" from a Disney-Marvel. Of course with respect to Star Wars, if you've seen it a trillion times you know what will happen. But yeah, I didn't think it was the best example anyway, and it still pales in comparison to most of the Marvel stuff.
They ran some out with policy and bullshit in the pre-vax period of the Covid scam. I know one personally who took an early retirement out before the vaccines because they were screwing pilots on scheduling along with forcing masks and Covid scare tedium. However their union crap worked out, he ended up with his pension and he works flying freight now. I think a lot of the most experienced ones may have done similar, they had little to lose leaving to not have to take the BS.
