Agreed. Anyone who makes their beliefs their identity runs the risk of being a clone of their opponents.

Fucking lmao.

I in no way defended you lol. I said you’re funny in a “I find their dogged determination to be wrong, amusing” sort of way.

I might have been more charitable if we’d started off with the civility you just demonstrated, but that ship has sailed for the foreseeable future.

I feel that middle paragraph a lot.

The left completely lost me for a while during the 2010s due to shitty messaging. “I’m not here to educate you”, “I can tell you’re a straight white male”, etc etc. Ive always been very egalitarian minded, so when the ones claiming they’re for equality are harassing people based on unchangeable characteristics, it really pisses me off. Thankfully I ended up finding some people that actually knew how talk with another human being. I feel partially responsible for the mess my country is in now, but honestly, so were the people that pushed me one way or another.

Velma is funny. If they weren’t, I’d have blocked them by now.

Only when people can’t be bothered to defend their opposition to my stance. When people are actually willing to engage with what I’m saying, I’m perfectly willing to change my mind.

We’ve lost Canada and Mexico already.

I wish Star Wars had leaned more heavily into the fantasy side of things for the prequels and sequels. I never really noticed as a kid, but you could honestly replace most of the science stuff in the originals with fantasy aspects very easily.

Giant floating sphere that destroys kingdoms, dragons the rebellions rides, hell even the lightsabers are just magic swords.

Part of the reason the prequels feel so goofy is that they feel like they should be grounded in reality, but the writing is still using fantasy logic. Tell me the Anakin/Padmè romance wouldn’t have felt better if they were in a fantasy movie. You don’t feel the pull of “The Dark side” like you do in the originals for the same reason, you’re just like “dude you just genocided a native tribe, chill the fuck out.”

Legitimately, everything I hear out of Texas makes it sound like fucking Mordor. It’s like everyone there lives to cause as much harm as possible.

As always, we’ll get downvoted by the “Free the nipple! … No we didn’t actually mean it!” crowd.

Yeah after watching it I didn’t get that vibe at all, sorry.

Like, yeah they talk about the effects of it, but it’s basically your basic anti smoking ad minus the melodrama.

I don’t have time to watch it right now, but from the comments it sounds like they’re just using clickbait to get to the usual antismoking position.

I mean… Not that I like it, but… You see where we are?

“Looks like we got a medium-rare!”

Wtf? What’s the name of it? Is it still up?

May I recommend CinemaWins? They focus on more positive aspects of the movies and they don’t rely on overused jokes for half their content.

I tried replaying it recently. Was losing my mind at how limited it felt. Gotta wait until mission whatever to unlock the one thing you wanted to do today!

That and the missions felt boringly grounded. That worked for RDR2, but I don’t want to follow a Prius in a slowass semi, I want to blow up cars!

That’s the POINT!

Ironic fucking username, lol.

A lot of people in here have never heard of mandated reporters before. We all act shocked when an incel shoots up a school and we find out that there were thousands of warning signs that were ignored, but when it’s a teacher it’s suddenly OK?
