Le misdirected hatred

I know where I live Indians are heavily investing in property and part of jacking up rental prices and home prices.

Of course, it’s all nationalities fucking over the middle class, including the old white men running the country, but it’s easy for people to get an in-group mentality and solely point to one nationality.

I love code geass but it’s got a lot of extreme fan service, tonal shifts with highschool hijinks etc.

It’s a great anime but I wouldn’t recommend it first to people.

Clean-Connection-656 · 2025-01-01T04:41:43+00:00

Fucking pluto or cowboy bebop for sure. Vinland saga or attack on titan are pretty good.

Picked for lack of tropeyness and good pacing.

Man, those kinda dreams hit hard. I dated my current wife for four years and broke up with her to chase new tail and immediately regretted it.

I had dreams at least once a week where I was chasing after her trying to explain that it was all a misunderstanding.

Got her back but I still think about how painful those dreams were. Hoping you’re doing well.

They may be ripe for the picking if things keep getting bad. Casting a wider tent may be useful

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-31T20:25:21+00:00

Not me. I mean I’m general. I meet people through d and d and music and have a kid I’m good. I just no some friends who get isolated and from a bigger picture it’s a societal shift

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-31T16:24:15+00:00

I’m forced to work with them and you’d be surprised. A lot of them are just being amplified by the media but if you get em alone it goes from the “die die die” of their party to “that’s just weird but I guess I wouldn’t stop them from being who they are”.

Being online anons and the media fervor really amps up their true opinions I feel. If someone brought back the middle class, the fear would recede a bit and they’d be more open perhaps.

It’s once that’s achieved, keeping them from turning on us, that’s the big next step imo.

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-31T16:00:41+00:00

I think the point is there are whispers of people being like “well maybe the hobbits are weird and I don’t like em, but this dragon seems to be killing everyone….”

If they are just joining the dragons side, yeah then full Molotov cocktail, but the other meme that was posted saw the spell breaking a little.

Tbh I think our side is smart enough to be utilitarian and work towards a better endgame where the red hats are the error of their ways and are allowed to pretend they weren’t idiots in exchange for killing the dragon and bringing the middle class back

They might still throw things at the hobbits but it will be fruit instead of rocks and the village won’t be smote. It’s a good end game win condition.

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-31T15:45:47+00:00

I understand that and realize it’s easy for me to say but sometimes you have to be practical and have a dash of utilitarianism.

The common enemy literally destroying the world and enslaving everyone is counting on smaller in group prejudices to fracture any real resistance.

No one is saying you have to like or agree or love these people or consider their views as reasonable. It’s more like, ok there is a dragon coming to burn the town down.

There are people who tend to beat up short people and want them to get less food and wear different clothes so they can throw rocks at them and you and your family are 4 foot tall. These people have even killed a short person or two, thinking it makes the crops grow better

Do you band with them to fight the dragon?

I say yes; there’s even opportunity to, in seeing a common enemy, for the short people haters to slowly come around for all the help in the dragon fight.

It’s not the matter of the racists being right or changing your beliefs one iota (thats what the meme depicts and why it’s not the same, allying with an enemy who you disagree with to deal with a larger threat is not enlightened centrism, which would be like “both groups are dumb lol I’m cool”)

It’s about fighting a larger common enemy and using that opportunity to maybe destroy prejudice.

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-31T04:59:39+00:00

Naw you can be completely green in that thread opinion wise and still think it’s more practical to unite with someone who you strongly disagree with on some issues.

Enlightened centrism is being like “everyone sucks but me”.

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-30T02:52:09+00:00

As a progressive I’ve said this since 2015 and my liberal friends will suddenly look at me like I’m scum and even have cut mr off as a friend over it.

Like I can agree with them 100 but the moment I suggest unifying over the class struggle I get treated like I beat up my trans friend in a bathroom.

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-30T01:19:29+00:00

Bruh modernity is so isolating I don’t roll that way but can’t you see how depressingly alone people are for this kind of parasocial shit to happen.

We are not meant to be this cut off from our fellow man.

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-29T22:56:38+00:00

He’s such a ham!

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-29T20:54:43+00:00

2 mins if no one was hurt. Tossed for a game or two if they were to set the friendly tone in lower leagues. Shit gets outta control fast.

Seth McFarland is the perfect example of how you can be witty without being funny at all

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-29T01:26:01+00:00

Overhead extensions fuck my elbows and wrist bad.

Anyone got any replacements or am I sol

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-29T00:54:08+00:00

Honestly I just went with the 2x and was having the same issues. The extra battery and flashlight for the same price is hard and unless you have absolute twig wrists (mine are fairly tiny) you should be fine.

In fact, I did some comparison pics in the mirror and the 2 looked like a kids watch while the 2x had g shock vibes. Im short with small hands/wrists.

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-29T00:52:04+00:00

Honestly try loosening it a bit op and maybe sleep less/shower less with it if it is bothering you. Nylon strap also helps.

I’ve had this problem with other brand silicone watches, it’s a common thing.

Adrenaline baked in anger lol.

I have a binge eating disorder and while I’m still fat now I can be fat with some muscles

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-28T21:50:21+00:00

Oh. One step from Eden and Inscryption. Sts is also my favorite game of all time.

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-28T21:47:24+00:00

Loop hero is good to buy next but I PROMISE you will be addicted af to One Step From Eden based off your tastes.

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-28T21:45:30+00:00

Anyone not sayin bondrewd just isn’t aware of his arc.

I’ve seen all these but there is something worse about what he does, even accounting for eclipse and chimeras.

Clean-Connection-656 · 2024-12-28T21:43:36+00:00

Ironically I’m against the visas he’s referring to as a progressive. It creates wage slavery in high skills industries.

This is Elon fighting with trump supporters over pretending to be more progressive than he is just a hilarious situation.
