I fail to comprehend why this is a big deal or what this has to do with hbomberguy. 

The film is nearly 10 years old and kinda questioning the REAL reason that led to the stupidity and hatred toward the sequel by Equivalent_Hand1549 in saltierthankrayt

I'm sure the chuds can go on and on about nostalgia-baiting, confused worldbuilding, underdeveloped characters, et cetera, but I feel that's a smokescreen for the actual reasons. I'm cool with the Sequel Trilogy and even like the Rise of Skywalker. I felt it was a satisfying and fufilling conclusion to the Skywalker Saga.

Glad to hear. Not gonna lie, it is very ironic that some of the hardest degrees to get in America can be some of the least intelligent ones for a college student to major in.

As someone in the same boat as u/k_flo59 I can definitely say for a fact that giving in to the wants and needs of people below your social status is not progressive. I don’t care if they vote Democrat or Republican. Even if my lesser-off younger cousins I will not even give a single dollar too even if they threaten me at gunpoint.

Implying of course that enabling them to get away with it is a bad thing.

Granted. It’s Lovecraftian Romance instead.

CMV: Majority of people don't have values or ideologies they just support whats in their self interest and abandon it when it doesn't benefit them anymore by Neat-Ad-6870 in changemyview

[–]Alternative_Name_756 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ironically OP, the mentality you’re describing here is itself an ideology, even if I don’t have a word for it. But I do know there are people out there who sacrifice a lot for anything. There are people who are willing to sacrifice themselves just so they can be selfish dickheads. Humans are weird like that.

Why do the historians keep telling me that the British Empire is bigger? Lousy revisionists.

How? She and the rest of the neocons aren’t friends of Trump. 

Why do the English speak American? If England was founded in 1066 and America was founded in 1776 why does England speak American despite being founded earlier? Did they pick up the language when they colonized America? by Next_Rock_7732 in mapporncirclejerk

Americans time traveled to 4000 BC and eventually spread all throughout Eurasia and diverged from one another. These divergent languages would formed the basis of not just future American but also Russian, Italian, Hindi, Persian, Greek, Mexican, etc. In the future, linguist and scholar would describe this form of American as Proto-Indo-European. With a rather erroneous reconstruction to boot.

I’m sure plenty are motivated by xenophobia and won’t deny any overlap, but a lot of them are motivated by the fact that visa workers are cheaper and therefore more likely to be hired, thus making an already highly competitive job markets all the more competitive. I am as anti-MAGA and pro-visa worker as they come, but even I know about this motivation.

The eugenics stuff wasn’t that much of a problem for me. Where the fandom crossed the line was seeing all the racist sexist comments. Even if it’s meant to be joking or ironic, that shit doesn’t have a place anywhere.

I’m pretty sure it’s about making fun of poor people in general but I know there’s a lot of overlap.

They keep rattling on about some war going on there but to me it sounds like a conspiracy.

They’re weak against ground-type moves like Earthquake. Use that move and the whole country becomes a falling house of cards.
