“Well YOUR people did it for forty years, so fair’s fair”.
And by doing it themselves, and justifying it so, they're wholly condoning the practice and negating any grievance they had about it.
If something is bad when your enemy does it to you, it's also bad when you do it to them. The only exception to that rule is matters of necessity, such as it becomes imperative to fight your opponents with their own weapons. But this? This is petty, short-sighted, and anti-civilization. There's no pragmatism, no goal. Just spite and irrationality.
We won't need to boycott Big Oxygen, they'll cut off our air supply if we say anything negative about their woke shit. This is a really weird comic
... there are like six characters in the game. How is not actively having a black person the same as 'portraying reality as existing without' them? What the fuck? Is it portraying reality as existing without electricians, Norwegians or giraffes just because it doesn't depict them?
This is a dark road to go down. We are descending into utter insanity.
Though, is this fake? There was an 'article' about them removing the nurses from the game for being oversexualized, and that turned out to be fake. This is about the same level of stupidity, so I have to ask.
How is that even possible, and how is that level of waste even allowed?
They honestly believe they're all going to be part-time gardeners or educators or drug dealers or coffee makers or something. There's an thing floating around that shows a bunch of people answering 'What role would you serve in the commune' and the answers are the most deluded shit.
They are 100% incapable of acknowledging any kind of cause and effect, because it's been conditioned out of them.
The only time they align with rationality is on the rare occasion they can use it as a gotcha against their enemies, then they'll instantly abandon it again. And at that point it isn't even rationality, it's shouting so much nonsense that one or two things end up being accidentally true.
You don't even want to acknowledge agreeing with that singular point to avoid the foot in the door.
Perfect way of putting it, because it is a foot in the door. They've shown time and time again that they're incredibly dishonest, and that if you give them the slightest bit of ground they'll seize the opportunity to turn on the craziness and destroy everything.
Well there are problems with the elites wanting to use us as slave labor and bleed us dry while they live a life of luxury, but that's not inherent to capitalism, capitalism is just the system they're exploiting to make that happen. They'll exploit any system for that, and capitalism at least ostensibly provides you with an opportunity to better your situation (when they're not doing everything they can to prevent that).
But having to 'grow up' and focus on responsibilities is just an inevitable part of life, and wage slavery aside, if anything the current regime encourages us to play around aimlessly rather than better ourselves, because playing distracts us and eternal children are eternal consumers.
'Educate yourself!' Because it's the Dunning-Krugerest thing ever, where they smugly imply that their ignorant belief in propaganda makes them more knowledgeable or rational.
Oh, actually: 'It's not my job to educate you!' Because it's the above plus they're cowardly refusing to support the position they're demanding you accept.
But there are so many more. They're insufferable and loathsome.
'You don't need guns for self defense! Just let the state protect you!'
The state:
Why, exactly, does a crowdfunding platform need a head of comics?
Election interference is now legal.
Only for the elite.
Something will need to be done about the absurd amount of discretion the DOJ etc has. When you can openly decide to prosecute some people and not others, for no good reason, justice is dead.
Sadly, this will work on some people - they've been heavily conditioned to feel ashamed and to respond to that shame with compliance.
Those people will virtue signal and/or parrot the narrative and push the overton window that little bit further toward 'It's totally their business to censor your games due to concerns about the fictional content you engage with in your home! You're not a war crime apologist, are you?'
Unless there's a counter-narrative from someone high on the progressive stack who can claim 'This campaign is harmful to people like me', in which case they'll bitch and whine enough that the campaign will be rescinded and apologized for.
Or it could just fizzle out without gaining traction. The Red Cross might not be sociopolitically relevant enough to introduce bills at the Progressive Extrajudicial Legislature.
It also reeks of 'What the fuck is that creature?!' What a vile art style this is. The backgrounds are okay. Stick to those and don't ever try to draw a person again, PLEASE.
Didn't their left wing government JUST get elected like a month ago? Didn't take them long to go full speed on the subversion, did it?
women literally do in fact see men are nothing but slaves
Not consciously, and slaves aren't the goal. The goal is to be asspatted and affirmed and never inconvenienced and to get everything they want without ever taking a shred of responsibility and never be made to feel slightly bad or emotionally uncomfortable and to act whatever stupid way they want and to be cheered at for it because they're the main character. It's not a conscious grab for power (usually), it's pure childish id surrounded by an impenetrable fortress of irrationality. They will abuse you and genuinely believe themselves to be the victim every step of the way.
I do however acknowledge that they see men as the path to get those things. They know men are more suited to getting things done, and they know men will oblige/coddle them where other women won't. Don't get me wrong, women have a huge ingroup bias and will almost always back a woman against a man, but they are also in an endless, vicious competition with each other.
Don the armor of reason, and her histrionic nonsense has no power.
Unfortunately, it does, because histrionics are far more contagious than reason. Especially in a society that actively abandons rational thought. Me donning reason does not stop her from having actual, tangible power to destroy all that I love.
The bad times are coming, and they're coming fast. If you think they're bad now, know that you've seen nothing yet.
even the immigrants (...) gain an anti-immigrant sentiment once they've been here long enough
Wow, I wonder why that is?
It always flabbergasts me how people can say such obviously stupid things and still think they're smart and enlightened. It's like they're immune to reality, it just bounces off.
In doing so they actually harm black people, because the activists’ hostile attitude toward the white majority tends to intensify race hatred.
That's okay, they'll just make it illegal to be upset by it.
Important distinction. There's a big difference between ignorance-based aversion and understanding-based aversion. They've effectively convinced western society that everything they call hate is ignorance, that hate borne from understanding doesn't exist - unless it's one of the targets they deem acceptable. It is one of the most destructive falsehoods in history.
(But if you ask me, a small amount of ignorance-based aversion isn't so bad. It demonstrates a healthy sense of self-preservation, which is something westerners in general sorely lack.)
So another deranged leftist witch hunt then. And now that the receipts are out, they're doubling down. I've noticed that if they're wrong and you're right, that's just a signal for them to gun harder for you. They'll eventually leave you alone if you're proven wrong on something, but if you're objectively correct in a way they don't like, they will never forgive you.
Thank you. I tried that before but I think I was lost in the stupid twitter comments maze. It's not a very intuitive site sometimes.
This is a weird one. The video truly gave me the impression that she was crying crocodile tears and screaming dishonest nonsense to escalate the situation, as women sometimes do. On the other hand she must have genuinely felt threatened, being surrounded by five black men who wouldn't let her leave, and if the receipts say that she's the one who rented the bike she is totally, 100% in the right.
Either way, this article is completely vile and the author, a blight on society, deserves horrible, horrible things.
That falls under the umbrella of pragmatism. If they're the aggressor and they've made it imperative to fight them, you should do whatever you can.
I guess I'm talking about their hypocritical ideology that uses mental gymnastics to denounce actions while committing them themselves. There's no honesty in what they do. And they're so disconnected from reality I don't think they even really understand that setting precedent (or, in this case, committing actions they themselves denounce) will just lead to the same being used against them/
