I think Seth Dillon from the Babylon Bee has it right. We should be mocking and ridiculing this insanity.
I've had my eye on Eighty-Six: 86 for a while, I just need to be in the mood for something more serious.
If you like an anime with a more dire, apocalyptic tone, you might want to check out WorldEnd: What do you do at the end of the world? Are you busy? Will you save us?. It's very bittersweet and sad, but I found it interesting.
I watched Banished from the Hero's Party, I Decided to Live a Quiet Life in the Countryside earlier this year expecting a typical fantasy anime but found it surprisingly thoughtful and interesting with some serious moments.
I found Trapped in a Dating Sim: The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs amusing and surprisingly interesting, although I couldn't tell you exactly why. I'm usually turned-off by excessive fan service but I was able to get past it in this case.
I have no love for these types of classic Kamen Rider anime but I actually enjoyed Fuuto Pi a lot because of the likeable characters and charming silliness of it all.
I'm continuing to enjoy Kagua-sama: Love is War Season 3, although I think they've strayed somewhat from the comedy roots of the first season.
PS. My tastes are not typical of most anime watchers so take my suggestions with a grain of salt.
PPS. Rumor is One-Punch Man Season 3 is being animated by MAPPA. If this is true, we might actually see quality nearing season 1 this time around!
PPPS. ONE's next manga Versus sounds crazy. Looking forward to seeing what he does with it. I'm a big fan of his work.
The calls for revolution are tiresome. I've yet to see anyone willing or capable of leading such an effort who actually understand what it entails, much less anyone with the vision for what comes after. 30 guys on a mountain ain't gonna cut it. There are still options on the table besides "vote harder". The hard work might not be fun but it's a heck of a lot more pleasant than what a violent revolution would entail. It may still come to that at some point, but anyone eager for a revolution doesn't understand what it involves.
Christian theocracy is a Leftist boogeyman with no basis in reality. It’s likely just more Leftist projection as they no doubt want a Marxist “theocracy” of sorts.
The Kingdom of Heaven referred to in the Bible isn’t a literal kingdom on earth created by men. There’s nothing in the Bible that talks about Christians establishing a kingdom or government of any kind, although there are some denominations who believe there is. The only time any such thing is supposed to happen in the future is after the second coming of Christ, at which point Christ will subdue the entire world personally, killing anyone who rejects Him (Christ’s second coming is totally different from His first coming — where His first coming was in meekness and humility, His second coming has Him personally slaughtering everyone in the world who rejects Him, bringing the entire world into submission by force… quite the contrast from the first time around).
Christianity isn’t a monolith. The reason there are hundreds of denominations is due to the disagreement between believers on many topics, including the issues you mentioned. Many Christians find the actions of the mega churches and the grifters who take people’s money deplorable.
Religious institutions are prone to the same corruption that any human institution is prone to as they grow in size and influence. This is because institutions are human inventions and humans themselves are sinful and prone to corruption. Christianity is meant to be a personal relationship with our creator, not a human institution.
Many people think the Left and the Right in the USA are two sides of the same coin, but even the craziest people on the Right like Jack Thompson thought banning video games was unconstitutional. When you dig deeper and look at the facts, you realize there’s no comparison between the two sides.
For the Left it's about protecting and promoting degeneracy and exacting revenge on their enemies. Gunn got cancelled by Mike Cernovich for pedophilia related jokes and other activities, so that makes Gunn one of them, and they probably want revenge.
Is this serious? Is he trying to tank his chances in 2024? Because everything he's doing reeks of someone who is out of touch; the complete opposite from his 2016 run.
-
Vocal support for unpopular vaccines (although he's thankfully not supporting the mandates which were the real issue, not the vaccines themselves)
-
Low-energy announcement of presidential bid
-
Kanye and Fuentes meeting
-
"Terminate the Constitution" faux pas
Rush Limbaugh once said the only person who can separate Trump from his supporters is Trump himself, and that's exactly what it looks like he's doing. It's getting harder to take him seriously by the moment.
It's because "diverse" has been redefined to mean "Leftist victim group".
The Left can't win in the real world using commonly accepted language so they redefine language in their favor to deceive and manipulate people. They'll even flip flop between definitions in order to win the argument. Until normies realize they're being had, we'll continue losing this war.
Don’t mistake Republican politicians for conservatives. 90% of Republicans pretend to be conservative during election season but are crony capitalists at heart and don’t actually govern like conservatives.
Republicans don’t want to win, they just want to be friends with their Democrat buddies and get invited to cocktail parties and social events and get thrown a bone by the New York Times or Washington Post from time to time.
No, people dying because they can’t afford healthcare isn’t a good thing, it’s a bad thing, a terrible thing.
The good news is that privatized healthcare would be far cheaper than government healthcare, and any remaining gap could be covered by charitable and religious organizations.
Government healthcare isn’t a problem just because it’s expensive, inefficient and eventually leads to government encouraging people to kill themselves like in Canada, but because it’s also a huge contributor to the slippery slope of government power and authority which eventually leads to escalation of all manner of atrocities and abuse, which in turn eventually leads to hell on earth.
And he claims to be misdiagnosed, and pumped full of drugs (something that the message by Harley seems to conform).
He's admitted it, then denied it, then admitted it again, and so on. It depends what mood he's in. Coincidentally, also a symptom of being bipolar.
Divergent behavior isn't mental illness. But once again, I'll ask you: Do you talk to white people, given racism is considered mental illness and whites are considered inherently racist? Do you talk to people in general and value what they say, despite the fact that around 50% of people - meaning every other person - get diagnosed with mental illness in their lives? It's a simple question. Why are you avoiding it?
I never said racism is mental illness.
It goes way further than that, and the point is that stating such things in particular terms is controversial in liberal society in which we live in.
Let me guess, you're one of the few people who apparently knows what Kanye really means?
Obviously, because you believe in liberalism and its heresies. I'll re-state what I've already said: Racism, anti-semitism, nazism, communism, socialism, aren't a thing. They have no concrete existence, in fact their entire existence is manufactured by liberal capitalism.
I haven't seen any evidence you even understand what liberalism means. You brushed off the fact that you were misusing the liberal definition of equality, and you seem to avoid specifics, preferring to use generalities. Because of this it's hard to take anything you say seriously.
Obviously, because you believe in liberalism and its heresies. I'll re-state what I've already said: Racism, anti-semitism, nazism, communism, socialism, aren't a thing. They have no concrete existence, in fact their entire existence is manufactured by liberal capitalism.
Sure they are.
Christianity itself has caused untold suffering, and was (often violently) imposed upon some of my people, but you'll see few if any no offer a defense of Christianity either way, or they'll go the way of "no true scotsman," which itself serves as deflection and defense of Christianity.
"No True Scotsman" is a fallacy of ambiguity. It's only fallacy when the terms involved are poorly defined or a non-sequitur to the point. If you clearly define a "True Scotsman" as someone born in Scotland, then you can point to someone not born in Scotland and say they're "no true Scotsman" without being fallacious. A Christian is someone who has repented from their sins, and turned from their old self in order to follow Jesus Christ. This isn't a fallacious claim.
Not everyone who claims to be a Christian or speaks Christian words is a Christian. This was stated by Jesus Himself.
...have you considered that to some, you self identifying as a Christian might be as it's to your or libs for that matter seeing Kanye call himself a Nazi?
Kanye never called himself a Nazi.
Honestly, most of what you're saying is nonsense, unsubstantiated by evidence and completely disconnected from reality. I don't really see a point in discussing this further.
What mental illness? In what way?
He was diagnosed with bipolar a few years ago. He's actually talked about his struggles on that point. He's also taken medication for anxiety, depression and paranoia. It's not a question of whether he has mental illness, so much as what role, if any, is it playing in his current behavior. I would say his erratic behavior punctuated by his performance on Alex Jones is a pretty good sign that it is.
He clearly does more so than majority of populace, he's just not great at expressing it clearly, which is understandable, as there's very few people who've expressed such things to begin with.
No, you just support him because you sympathize with his positions.
It's not that hard to explain "love the sinner, hate the sin", especially if someone is a Christian as he claims to be. This isn't groundbreaking or new or innovative. Christians have been saying this forever.
Your lack of understanding of his points doesn't mean he's crazy, it just means you aren't familiar enough with critique of liberalism to process them properly, or for that matter, haven't listened to everything he's said in context and parsed it properly. Much of what he focused when it comes to nazis/etc is specifically something I've been talking about for a while, which is that "racism," along with other -isms, "communism," "nazism," "fascism," etc, are liberal heresies and villains who are entirely (and purposefully) manufactured by the very system, and serve various things.
You and I aren't going to agree on this.
It's because he's Christian.
I'm a Christian. He's speaking Christian words and phrases. That doesn't make him a Christian.
So is of most Christians. People are fallible, imperfect creatures.
He's arrogant, worldly, profane and immoral. He puts himself on a pedestal second only to Jesus. He's releases music filled with worldliness, profanity and immorality. He married a worldly and sinful woman. These are not things that a Christian does.
I hope he's actually loves Jesus, but if he does, he is even more tormented than I thought because someone who loves Jesus doesn't live a life so publicly and blatantly immoral and in contradiction to everything that Jesus calls us to be. His flavor of Christianity resembles the type of Christianity practiced in the black culture where everyone talks the talk as a performance but do not actually walk the Christian walk outside of Sunday services.
...but no one is calling them mentally ill, psychotic, or calling for their arrest or institutionalization. Perspective.
Evil behavior doesn't make someone mentally ill. Kanye is exhibiting signs of actual mental illness. Even if he's not mentally ill, he certainly doesn't have an understanding of the topics at hand, the people he's associating with or the arguments he's making.
everything he's said is on point:
Not true at all, but even if it were true, Kanye's behavior is erratic and he's clearly not all there. If you're crazy, I could care less if you sometimes say stuff that agrees with me because there's no consistency or clarity of thought to make it meaningful.
Kanye is all over the place. He talk about the evil Jews and then a moment later talks about how great Trump is despite Trump being the most pro-Israel President in our lifetime, having a son-in-law who's Jewish, and having a daughter who converted to Judaism. He tries to make points about loving everyone and other such nonsense you would expect to hear from a hippie in the 1960's and frequently brings up God and Jesus and typical Christian stuff but his lifestyle and behavior is far from Christian. There's no "there" there. It's all just the ramblings of someone who needs help.
It's clear to see Milo and Nick are just using him, and Kanye is going along with it because he feels validated.
Even if it was natural, 90% of people don't want to see it.
They keep trying to tell people that homosexuality is "completely normal and natural" but it's not, and people instinctively know this. Nobody wants to see people manifesting their weird fetishes in a movie like Willow. The fact that it's completely forced and preachy just makes it worse.
Kanye is clearly mentally ill and everyone in his circle is just using him for their own purposes. Milo and Nick are both grifters who see him as a means to an end. I've heard some say his behavior resembles that of someone who is bipolar.
Kanye is partly responsible because of his tremendous ego and lack of any semblance of humility. Pride comes before the fall.
Yeah, they’re taking on a lot. I hope they treat their employees well.
