So in other words Louise just said he wants to accelerate military DEI by putting in even more radical and unqualified people in it. Even to the point that the current already DEI'd military isn't radical enough for him because it still somehow has white culture in it.
What part of Disney star wars actually appealed to teenagers? The part where they didn't explain anything? The part where they kept running pointless contradictory shipping between Rey and Kylo? The part where they trivialized the war andtried to pretend that no sides were good and thus no actions actually really matter?
Like seriously... What was supposed to draw the teens in?
So basically the UK police with a long established history of ignoring leftwing violence and Muslim terrorism get to decide your opinion. Terrorism isn't violence, it's the posts on social media that make our minority groups look bad that is terrorism. /s
Surveys already show: Canadians are seen as more polite while Americans are seen as more friendly. In other words Canadians are more likely to be passive aggressive to you while Americans are more likely to actually be helpful.
The investigators for the murder that started the film's plot were lazy and didn't investigate the murder properly.
The scientists\doctors were convinced people can't get addicted to drugs if they have the right genes. It's a very lazy protocol to operate on the assumption that personal accountability or even basic bio-chemistry has no bearing on life outcomes just because a genetic test suggests an individual shouldn't have issues. I didn't write the scientists should be investigating things though since there's nothing in the movie that they were tasked with. I did write that they were lazy, which I have just established that they're protocols are indeed lazy.
Gattaca was a society that thought it understood genes but was actually deeply incompetent (investigators who don't investigate because they think their genes and forensics DNA tests prove their work or doctors who think genes somehow stops the addictive chemical properties of nicotine).
If society actually started dealing with dysmorphic individuals (which genetic testing would easily find the appropriate genes in them) it would be more likely to be way more competent than gattaca since it's actually dealing with a problem that is observable and preventable. Gattaca's scientists and society as a whole were just lazy and up their own ass.
Just accept that they have the right answer and assuming you need something from them go get it. Otherwise expect them to come up with the stupid answer the next time an issue comes up. You don't trust a broken clock even if its right exactly twice a day.
This is somewhat believable. On the one hand its hard to believe because soldiers want to be soldiers. On the other hand... they've been DEI'ing the military to heck and back and filling it with as many marxists as they can get away with. The DEI plants don't want to fight because they know they can't and the ideologically motivated leftists clearly won't be professional and don't like Israel. Could be fake... but it could be a case of the chickens coming home to roost.
Yeah but won't people just start faking the hate crime videos too because they're more believable and conform to observable reality better? Granted there won't be as much demand because the regular raw footage is in high supply but they could always try to pretend all the bad stuff is deep fake since it lets them be lazy and they love being lazy.
Some episodes were actually pretty funny and these were usually the ones that acknowledged that Mariner is a complete piece of shit who has no purpose being in starfleet as she's a dumb character who frequently self sabotages for no good reason yet the narrative goes out of its way to help her (including manifesting a federation starship for her to steal in one of the finales despite that faction explicitly not stealing federation vessels). Highlights include Mariner being given the only fair holosimulation assessment and failing because she legitimately sucks (the funniest part is this was in season 1 so perhaps the writers were aware of how much of a mary sue she is) or being reduced to a literal knife magnet because she literally contributed nothing otherwise.
There seems to be a lot of confusion on what the writers were planning to do with Mariner and if you haven't inferred from the first paragraph of how inconsistent she is in all aspects of her character other than annoying; the fact that she ends up trying to be rick from rick and morty during episode 1 only for stuff like that to never ever happen again should demonstrate how no one seems to know what she was about. They don't even really do a job of explaining why she is constantly self-sabotaging herself. The best answer given was that she was sad because a minor character in DS9 died on spy mission so this made her anxious about actually doing a good job in the federation because she would be promoted beyond her competence and killed but this is hypocritical because she is basically letting everyone else get promoted and die in her place and its implied she is competent enough to reach high ranks without issue.
It is important to note that season 1 went quite heavy on the woke which mostly went away in later seasons especially as the writers seemed to notice that mariner is a shitty character that is easily the worst character on the show. They still had huge fuck ups (like trying to state that multiverse must be cool because we get to explore the sexuality of existing IP characters... whoops) and the show absolutely cannot do drama or high stakes correctly and often makes huge shortcuts or dramatic failures out of plot necessity rather than comedy (i.e Mariner steals a federation ship that the rebel faction which wasn't stealing federation ships shouldn't even have).
One thing I do have to disagree with OP on is that the show doesn't really do a good job hyping up female leads. There are definitely more episodes where the female leads are only ones doing anything but there are plenty of episodes where the male leads especially Ransom and head of security are all shown to be very competent and at times basically infallible at the job with Ransom's only failings typically consisting of having to baby Mariner or make excuses so she doesn't immediately get fired like she deserves. They also don't feminize the male Klingons IIRC and treat the male Klingon Captain as generally capable.
TL:DR If you were hoping this long ass text would help you figure out if you want to watch lower decks or not... I can't really help with that. I watched the show with my brother as a family activity that he wanted to do and the show when it wasn't doing stereotypical woke shit was actually being funny (it does fail massively at drama). I just wrote this mostly to point out that Mariner is the worst freaking character in existence in the franchise potentially even toppling Wesley Crusher because at least the writers had an idea what they were doing with Wesley Crusher. If you really need to know if you should watch maybe just search funniest clips or read the episode synopsis and pick the episode that don't sound like shit. If those don't work then don't watch. You're not missing much especially since Mariner is a train wreck.
I honestly believe kcd2 is an astroturfed game. It's boring to play, unrewarding to progress the story and a complete abandonment of historical authenticity. The people saying positive things about were generally just murder hoboing.
I don't know how you did it. The dating market is fucked. Met massive amounts of ham planets that want 6 figure salaries or specific heights. Not a single women I have ever met actually shares more 4 things in common with me.
It's a game loaded with hallway walking and cutscenes. It's not much of a game at all.
