Honestly to me Woke means endless race/gender swaps, overhyping something because it was written or directed by a female/minority, and the ridiculous overrepresentation of lgbt.
I noticed something recently. I think they tend to go crazy out of a desire for self-preservation.
Like Kathleen Kennedy is obviously incompetent right? The only thing she has going for her is that she’s a woman, and that’s how she got her position. So her natural inclination is to push “girl power” as hard as possible. It’s working for her so far, and it’s all she’s got, so why not?
I think a failing film would only make her double down and go more diverse.
As another example, look at Boyega. I’m not even saying he’s a bad actor, I’ve just never heard of him before the Star Wars films, and since then, he’s done nothing but talk about how black people aren’t fairly represented in film lol.
That’s his thing now. Instead of appreciating that he got to be in one of the best franchises ever created, he whines that he wasn’t the lead. He will now complain his way to the top, and people will comply out of either fear or because they agree with him politically.
It’s this totally self-serving, disgusting movement of weakness and mediocrity. I used to think it was purely this agenda to take down and destroy what already functions well, or to destroy white people, but it’s more about uplifting mediocrity and deflecting criticism.
I’m just going to tune them out. I started watching Book of Boba Fett recently and it’s not bad. Not amazing, but it has potential. The main actor is flawless, but I have some issues with the story/production. It’s leagues better than most of what’s out there though.
Filoni and Favreau are keeping the franchise alive for a bit longer. It’s more and more difficult to enjoy what content is put out there, but I’m pretty busy these days anyway.
Of course the woman is only thinking about dick size.
No you can tell by the voice. It's a woman, but not a very attractive one.
This was not surprising once you looked into who was writing the story. If it's not a man, it's not going to be any good.
Given the current climate, I'm not even sure how a game like KOTOR could be made. The women are supposed to be sexy, the jokes dark and funny, and you have themes of slavery and other moral topics that are interesting but too offensive for a modern writer to do properly.
I don't even get the race and gender swap thing. The original KOTOR already had different races and genders everywhere. Why swap anything? Make a new story if that's what you want to do.
Oh interesting.
There is a contradiction. Their whole reason for going vegan is to stop animals from being harmed by eating plants, supposedly. I don't recall vegans ever saying "not this animal, just that one".
In fact I saw a vegan earlier say that killing any animal for food is murder. It should logically follow that killing an animal to protect your food is still murder.
That seems to be the play in the US as well, though it is completely ridiculous.
They have no meaning or value in their own lives (they see themselves as victims or failures), and so they have to attach themselves to a revolutionary movement that will change things to avoid feeling completely powerless and wanting to kill themselves.
It’s sad because there are perfectly good existing values and identities that they could adopt, but they would need to stop hating first to see that.
It’s all just a rebellion against the way they were treated as children. (that’s why they seem stuck in the past) A lot of the well off ones become antifa because they feel like the evil capitalist system robbed them of a good family life. (due to their parent’s obsession with money and their career)
Neither man nor woman are oppressed. Women are coddled and protected from criticism, while men are apathetic, desperate for sex and attention from females, and belittled as much as possible.
Both are at fault but men more so because women are incapable of responsibility. Men have to stop checking out and take control, or it will never end.
Some of it is vanity, like they want their kid to be “special” to brag about it. The rest is just man hatred, where they punish the son in retaliation against the father.
Sick stuff. Not sure what it will take to fix it. Men have to be the ones to end it, I know that for certain.
What do you mean “acting on behalf of feminists”?
Ooh, that’s an interesting angle I didn’t think about. I still remember my dad telling me, “That’s not a five”, when helping me with a homework assignment. He mocked a little kid’s attempt to draw a number.
Let me tell you I fixed that number up right quick and never half assed it again lol. Parents should correct kids when they do stupid things, but it sounds like they maybe rebelled against their own parent’s teaching by supporting anything their child does.
I noticed that trend of parents being desperate to be their kid’s friend. This seems like an evolution of that.
I like how they think plants just come out of the ground and are available to us with no effort. They don't seem to care about the countless number of small animals that were killed to prevent them from getting into the crops.
It's because they crave meat and know deep down that it is the superior source of nutrition and flavor. Attempting to mimic it with their soy products is a failed attempt to placate their hunger and keep them from abandoning the diet altogether.
Same! I thought it was pretty clearly supposed to be "no animal or animal-derived products".
“I start eating and everything tastes a little off. At this point, she does a “‘Ta da’ and smugly told us ‘I bet it tastes exactly like meat,’”
This is hilarious. Even vegans subconsciously admit that meat is superior. They crave it and try to mimic it with their subpar creations. If they thought soy was actually better, they wouldn't be trying to turn it into something else.
Anything against the narrative is hate speech or violates “community standards”. What a joke.
Thank God for the openness of the web or this would be a lot harder.
Everyone else gets criticism. They should grow a thicker skin and deal with it the way the rest of us do.
So how are they any different? The shilling for them is ridiculous.
I can’t stand this “behavior outside platform” thing. It’s always political. Imagine if it becomes the norm for banks, phone service, etc.
I almost hope it does so we can just bifurcate already. Separate society is the only solution imo.
It originated in France and Germany. Russians and Germans infected us with it after the war.
Yeah as you said, it’s not the case where I live. People here are very skeptical of the vax and the government.
Worse than that, if you question ANY element of it, you are shamed, ostracised, demonized, treated worse than dirt. Why?
Oh that’s easy. People are not Christian for the most part anymore, but they still crave meaning and morality in their life, and this is their pale substitute.
They worship the state, the TV, “science”, and feel morally superior to people like you who dare to question “god”.
When, and how does this end?? Next year will almost certainly be worse. In fact, for me personally, I 100% guarantee it will be. When will people wake up? Will they ever?? What the fuck are we going to do?? How do we actually push back? I'm genuinely beginning to think that this WON'T end, because people simply do not want it to, so... Where do we go from here??
Yes you’ve stumbled upon the hard truth there. It won’t end until people make it end by not participating. There is light in the tunnel because people experiencing lockdowns even while they “did everything right” are annoyed, since they only took the shots to go back to normal and that is clearly not happening.
Also many people do not want to keep taking booster after booster, and now they see that two shots isn’t enough.
This will end within a year, at least in the states. If I was in Australia, I’d seek out like minded locals. Form a Telegram group. Support one another and offer advice and assistance.
From my outsider perspective, it doesn’t seem like Aussies are too bothered by government giving them a reach around. It will only end there when they get embarrassed because it’s already over in America and they’re still doing it.
That makes me happy.
Trinity’s fake husband is actually named Chad.
Funny, and it does save you time and energy.
I’d love to see someone’s face after accusing me of being racist when they hear the response: “and?”
