the white part is eyebrow raising to say the least, but Jake Lang does sort of come off like a clout-chaser.

wish he had the stones to stand up to the huckster on the other side doing the exact same thing, though.

it's possible, though speculative, but this looks like an effort to hide them for the camera rather than disavow. I have heard ms-13 is trying to move away from tattoos for the very same reason reason garcia got caught in the first place: they make you an obvious target for cops and other gang members.

...even though i've never really thought about it till now, this kinda lends credence to my opinion that DEI, etc aren't about equality and fairness and all that fluffy bullshit, but about socially engineering people into undifferentiated worker drones... This is exactly the kind of language you'd expect to be used with mindless automatons.

well the idea is the tattoos on gang members are like a brand on a heifer; they own you for life( i did some looking around online after wading through the dross).

but yeah, you can get them removed with a special laser, it's just expensive and excruciatingly painful from what i hear.

...maybe he wants to avoid having to talk to Vance.

...You saw what happened after JD visited the pope, right?

I thought so as well, but didn't want to make a definitive statement.

so easy to make a fool of yourself by making definitive statements with incomplete information.

even if your goal was to undermine the west, you'd want people to actually watch your propaganda. the problem is these people are so dedicated to pushing their message, they let the story take the backburner, and the product suffers as a result.

I can think of heavily propagandistic movies (the OG Robocop, starship troopers, Black Panther, etc) that still told an entertaining story, because they focused on the story and the performance above the agenda. Hell, i can remember even conpro cheering the movie going "that's what we want for white people!" (paraphrased).

ppropaganda doesn't work if the target of that propaganda doesn't show up.

yeah, but there's different kinds of lies, and certain kinds of lies can actually reveal the truth they don't want you to know.

the problem is nobody on their side actually wants to go on rogan, because he'd rip them apart, that and they've painted him as this far-right neo-nazi vax-denier, and they dont want to be hit with their own guilt-by-association friendly-fire..

They literally don't know the difference between charity and welfare. I've actually had this argument before sadly.

minor nitpick; the new york times is a games website, not a gaming website.

“Playing video games alone, even violent ones, isn’t going to convince people to join manosphere communities. But misogyny and interconnected prejudices within games, which often tend to be quite prominent, can normalise such attitudes.”

muh video games are to blame

...like fucking clockwork...
