@lporiginalg That's the worst part of modern politics. We got the surveillance and the shitty cronyism, but we just didn't bother with the good bits of dystopian fiction

@Arjuna1175415 @supafly_03 @CB79209807 @ZoomerHistorian @protagonist_xig Oof, really got me there. Stung me to my core

@mr26743 @supafly_03 @CB79209807 @ZoomerHistorian @protagonist_xig And I’m sure you’re all smug thinking that America is still a super power, the next 6 months are going to be a wake up call for you losers

MEN ruined her life and she had to DIE to find Peace. Fuck this sick world!

@ResoluteGoat @Fen0505 @Awk20000 NPCs are functionally indistinguishable to AI. Not sure if that's because a lot of AI was trained on reddit or just convergent evolution

@Fen0505 @Awk20000 Okay now try typing your own comment without the help of AI.

Paul McCartney was banned on Reddit after posting photos/videos from his show at Fonda Theatre to his subreddit

@Arjuna1175415 @supafly_03 @CB79209807 @ZoomerHistorian @protagonist_xig I'm sure your replies sound much smarter in your own head, but just know that it's only other Indians that will pretend you're making good points. They, like you, know that it's obvious cope

@mr26743 @supafly_03 @CB79209807 @ZoomerHistorian @protagonist_xig The biggest vacuum is the one Americans live in . For one, you think you’re winning the war in Iran 🤣

@rja_carnegie @WEschenbach Yes, lol. Things like that but actually happening

@mr26743 @WEschenbach You mean like tearing down the capital city and building his own Golden House there.

The first time I worked in Tonga, when I got there, they were about to hang a murderer. But then the King of Tonga said "Nope, I'm commuting his sentence to life imprisonment". I'm sure the man breathed a huge sigh of relief. The next week, the King went off to celebrate the birthday of the Sultan of Brunei. When he got back, he must have had a hangover or something, because he said, "Remember the man whose sentence I commuted? Reinstitute the death penalty!" The very next day, the man was hanged. And on that day, I learned about the power of a real King … Now, do you think that the King of Tonga would have allowed a "No Kings" protest? w.

@SmileyDieHappY @normalukrainian @ManMilk2 That might actually be sadder tbh. Maybe stick with the "rage baiting"

@mr26743 @normalukrainian @ManMilk2 Lol oh sorry I just met a girl that lives a mile a away and we met up.. im done rage baiting ya cucks.. night 👋 😘

@rja_carnegie @WEschenbach Sure buddy. Any day now he's going to start this Roman emperor stuff for real

@mr26743 @WEschenbach I'm saying it's "mentally ill Roman emperor" shit in both cases. And President Trump is still in progress. I do see him more as "stooge for the secret real government", though.

@Armaddem @khaliltooshort That's why it's an obvious cliche that people are going to notice

@khaliltooshort People complaining about how the guards attack one at a time have apparently never seen any other fight scenes in existence - because, like, 95% of them do this.

There’s an entire subpar movie attached to this scene But this scene also just sucks on a technical level if you actually pay attention

@SmileyDieHappY @normalukrainian @ManMilk2 Saying retarded things and then getting angry when people call you retarded isn't rage baiting, lol

@normalukrainian @ManMilk2 Yeah no shit, click bait.. I just wanted to make the point that you hear scalp and think native when everyone is guilty as fuck more so the white Europeans colonizers while I rage bait borg cucks and your mom should of gargled your dad's cum and saved us all time.. 🤭 titties

@rja_carnegie @WEschenbach The difference between stopping the death sentence then changing it back quickly and saying you're revoking a pardon but then not prosecuting anyone? You're asking what the difference is there?

@WEschenbach It could happen, and this sounds a lot like U.S. President Trump revoking pardons by President Biden so... what's the difference? It's not classy and maybe un constitutional but this isn't about consitutional power, it's about being obeyed.

@supafly_03 @Arjuna1175415 @CB79209807 @ZoomerHistorian @protagonist_xig Of course not. The rabbit hole here is just Indian men telling each other things they don't believe and the others pretend that it's true

@Arjuna1175415 @mr26743 @CB79209807 @ZoomerHistorian @protagonist_xig So those white female influencer videos showing large groups of Indian men staring at them and non stop pestering them for selfies are AI?

@Data56738 @DrChrisCombs I'm sure the reply and immediate block felt very cool in your mind, lol

@Data56738 @DrChrisCombs No, people who think they are far smarter than they actually are try to nitpick about assumptions. How do we know that he's talking about the dog in the picture at all? How do we know that cm means centimetre and not some log scale he's invented? Assumptions are necessary

Evan you might want to ask for a refund

@NWilliams18811 @guycole @NCBubblehead @DrChrisCombs "stupid ass fucking "well actually" problems my teacher gave us" So your response to the problems/teacher that you clearly didn't like was to become the exact same person and continue doing the same stupid ass thing?

@_elzubeir @Jack_Delahey @NCBubblehead @DrChrisCombs I'm fairly confident that second group are just all actual midwits who think they're above average intelligence. I just think they genuinely see arguing about "assumptions" as a sign of their own intelligence

@Jack_Delahey @NCBubblehead @DrChrisCombs There are people who understand the intention of the question and answer it, while others want to spend it arguing over the correctness of the intent. Those are the really annoying types who excel at critiquing, but never create.

@Bartwinsmith @pratyush_optom @DrChrisCombs +y and -y cancel each other out when you combine them

@pratyush_optom @DrChrisCombs Where did the y go

@supafly_03 @Arjuna1175415 @CB79209807 @ZoomerHistorian @protagonist_xig Not in a conversation comparing Indian rape frequency to the US

@mr26743 @Arjuna1175415 @CB79209807 @ZoomerHistorian @protagonist_xig second point has some valdity

@technobarb30k @wylfcen I saw a guy who was arguing that the books don't specifically and explicitly say Snape was Anglo/Celtic, so therefore the casting makes sense somehow

@wylfcen I should have screenshot’ed it, but in a black Snape thread here on X some NPC was asking where in the Harry Potter books it was mentioned that the White population of Britain was ~99% in the 60s when Snape was growing up. To these people, HP doesn’t take place in Britain.

>British person says she couldn’t tell Harry Potter was set in Britain This is the most “fish don’t know they’re in water” thing I’ve ever seen

@Arjuna1175415 @CB79209807 @ZoomerHistorian @protagonist_xig You don't even believe this, lol

@CB79209807 @ZoomerHistorian @protagonist_xig America sweeps rapes under the carpet ie 1. In the military 2. Black on white rape (afraid of racism) 3. College girls get drunk and raped and don’t even report it, it’s your culture now Conversely Indias rate of reporting is getting better and better

@NirvanaClay @Shuttlecock Or just people that have different opinions to you specifically, lol

@Shuttlecock Yeah, I was a kid when all these came out and I and seemingly everyone loved them. Never understood this claim that everyone hated them. I always thought it was just older people who get off on being contrarian and hating on things.

The thing is, a whole generation didn’t hate the Star Wars prequels. I was 18 when Phantom Menace came out, saw it opening night with a few friends from student res, and then rewatched it at least three or four times in the theatre over the next month or so. Pretty much everyone saw this movie (and EpII & III). Guys and girls. Nerds and casuals. Many went multiple times (the box office numbers prove this). The merch sold through the roof, every magazine featured cover stories with the cast, most casual fans thought Jar Jar was funny while the Star Wars nerds were obsessed with the tech behind the character. Girls loved Padme’s fashion while straight guys loved Portman. The online fandom was hyperactive with fan theories, fan art, etc with a very clear even split between the male/female demos. Fan and general public reaction was insanely positive. This particular scene became ICONIC. 98% of the negativity came from the professional film critics. TPM wasn’t perfect by any means but the media definitely tried to push the message that it was a disaster, Jake Lloyd sucked, and that Jar Jar was offensive and racist. This weird gaslighting that it was the fans who were negative and toxic is just current media trying to do damage control for just how negative they were at the time.
