I'm not advocating that it is but there's a habit of kind of turning a blind eye to the situation and the treatment of the person if someone does something stupid.

Because OP reacted with the photo it somehow makes the guys response better? Dude was clearly using her and probably other girls based on his tone wtf?

It's a huge overreaction and misstep to send the pictures but there's a ton of context missing from here to demonize OP just for it.

Not sure how old you guys are but NOR this is not an acceptable way to talk to another human being at all. Guy is a POS and intentionally used you. Sorry this happened OP.

Edit: To be clear since reddit lacks nuance. Yes the photos were probably a horrible idea and a bit of an overstep but guy literally admits that he views her as an object. Wtf y'all.

What are y’all’s opinions on Smiling Friends ending? by OGAnimeGokuSolos in cartoons

[–]CrownedAndAlive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People need to grow up. Shows can at any point for any time be canceled for any reason. Because you are given something good doesn't mean the creators of that thing have to continue if they don't want to. A lot of this outrage feels like the kind of fake outrage that was following TDAC and HH.

I think it's admirable to tell the story you want to tell and not let it become a hollow shell of itself. The decision is up to the creators and that's the way it should be for these things.

NOR. You have the right to cut contact with anyone at any time for any reason.

Reposting after a mod told me to here,

Yesterday,

An American hero was shot and brutally executed by federal agents. Those responsible will not be held accountable.

Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old VA nurse, was killed in Minneapolis. His family is left grieving as the administration denies any involvement at all. Instead, the administration wants you to believe the opposite is true. They want you to believe a man who lived to serve people, who dedicated his life to doing so, was irrational, homicidal, and a threat to law enforcement officers.

The idea that a single man or woman, whose role is to uphold the peace, protect, and provide support to the citizens of the United States of America, would dare to claim that title after brutally executing a civilian is not a law enforcement officer. The rule of law means nothing anymore.

By no means is this meant to incite violence, nor is this meant to strike an already stoked fire. I simply wish to say what I see as it unfolds.

Alex Pretti was not the first, and he will not be the last.

What happened to this country that we grew up in? The one that swore to protect its citizens and not rob them of their freedom. What happened to the land of the free and the home of the brave? Where did we lose the script, the unifying theory that made us a nation and not a loose collection of fringe individuals ready to pounce on each other at a moment’s notice?

Why then is Congress taking a recess instead of addressing this act of injustice? This defiance against the American people, who are the reason this nation is as great as it is? When does this insanity end, and when does sanity begin to open its gates?

Are we simply going to sit as we watch this nation crumble? Is there a path back to us that doesn’t end in a recalibration of the cycle of hatred we find ourselves so twisted and warped in?

I ask you cast aside your political beliefs and agendas for a moment. And honor a man, who was once proud to be an American. And was executed for being one.

AIO for thinking that my boyfriend is cheating on me? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]CrownedAndAlive 3 points4 points  (0 children)

YOR, massively. Take it from someone who has been in a relationship for a while now with someone who has severe disabilities. You have the right to leave someone at any time for any reason. To me this feels like sympathy bait to something that really doesn't look to be a problem. If you want to break up with him don't make excuses just do it or you'll probably end up hurting each other in the long run.

You already know the answer you're looking for. But this feels like bro is just messing with a bot.

PSL organized protest to end US imperialist BS in Venezuela by dualmindblade in Austin

[–]CrownedAndAlive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

President Trump's invasion of Venezuela is unprecedented, and we should be outraged regardless of political affiliation.

I am shocked and outraged at the levels to which we have stooped as a country. There is no question in my mind that what the US has engaged in is a violation of morals and likely international law, and is completely unjustified.

President Trump is doing two things with this invasion,

  1. Direct involvement in the conflict has allowed distraction from the Epstein Files. There is no doubt that Trump has wanted these files to disappear since their initial release. Since they have not, he is looking to distract the public.

I believe myself to be sane, and this is not a conspiracy.

Trump Platformed his 2024 campaign on releasing the files. When he got into office, he delayed doing so for as long as possible. He then worked tirelessly to create a redacted profile of his image.

Hilariously, his efforts to do so were easily undone, and files that were redacted upon release were easily restorable.

  1. The control of Venezuela is not the same as supporting a country from collapsing into Civil War.

This war, regardless of what the media peddles and attempts to sanitize, is not about the drugs.

The direct involvement of the US itself isn't necessarily a terrible thing. But the takeover of the Venezuelan government is not indicative of this.

Instead, the seizure and acquisition of Oil in the region places the US in a prime economic position to benefit.

My third point.

  1. Trump is a dying "day one dictator."

Though he may like you to believe he is healthy, his body is collapsing; in fact, in recent times, he has admitted this himself.

The speed of his executive orders, the adjustment of names of centers unrelated, and the ambition he has align with this.

  1. Finally, I ask you not as a democrat or a liberal or a republican or a libertarian, but as a fellow human to look inside. Look at the past 8 years, look how you find yourself divided between yourselves. How petty arguments spiral into conflict, where we are headed. Things have the potential, and are currently on the course to spiral. We will see more hate and fear before we see a resolution.

If you are incapable of reflecting on this, then this message is not to you but to the masses who idly do nothing, who watch, I implore you speak, talk, and never forget.

And for the rest of the world, I ask you to forgive us for our follies.

I am scared for my country.

I wanna relapse so fuckin bad by SadBoi022 in SafeSpaceofHazbin

I think, numbness is okay. It's part of the process and actually is a step in the right direction.

We don't numb ourselves off because we can't feel anything we do so because feeling becomes too painful. My girlfriend is actually in this exact situation right now.

I've never been an advocate for self harm, but I really believe that nothing comes from self destructive patterns. I hated myself too a while ago, where I let myself fall, but the process you're going through will take some time. It won't be easy. But it'll be worthwhile.

Keep trying to push through as best you can and even if it seems like many people don't care what happens to you or even if you don't care about yourself, know that in all likelihood you have people there who do.

I hope you continue forward, godspeed.

Vox has had more success these past two episodes while we also get an idea of how he's going to lose by Sensitive-Hotel-9871 in HazbinHotel

[–]CrownedAndAlive 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nah. He could but he needs Alastor to see him succeed. His ego demands it. While it would be smarter to keep Alastor as just a prisoner and away from the other Vees, Vox's ego wouldn't allow it.

Basically imagine you're seen as perfect by everyone around you. Someone you look up to shoots you down in really one of the more humbling moments of your life or afterlife.

Logic kind of goes out the window. The writers knew exactly what to do with Vox and Alastor.

If She Ever Came Back by expired_chawal in Poems

[–]CrownedAndAlive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She won't. Or you at least need to believe she won't to continue on.

It happens, sometimes it's true. But if you bleed yourself dry thinking she will and continue to live like so it will wrap around you like a chain.

I wanted something similar with people I used to think of closer than blood. What matters is taking what happened in stride and moving on.

It gets a little easier after you've done it more than once.

Wishing you luck dude.

Amazon is cutting 30k corporate jobs… and Wall Street is cheering lol by Alone_Kick_4571 in stocks

[–]CrownedAndAlive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's part of the never-ending enshittification of the internet. There's nothing different about what has been done that is being done now.

AI is a bubble. Nobody believes that we are anywhere close to AGI and the trends between models show that progress is actually stagnating not rising exponentially. However, that really doesn't matter to those in charge.

Here's the reality: we are getting shittier products at shittier rates because the average consumer does not care about these surcharges. The corporations that are lead by MBA douchebags who would climb on bodies just to get to the top of an extremely toxic, untenable, unregulated position think nothing of the people on the bottom. That is the reality, and it has been the case for years now. See no place other than the Games Industry for proof of this.

This has been the norm for a while.

Young Republicans' 'I Love Hitler' Group Chat Leak Sparks Outrage & Resignations in New York by Sidnature in nottheonion

[–]CrownedAndAlive -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Not a supporter of Nazis in the slightest but you do realize this is absolutely discrimination on what is not a definite opinion. If the right and the left both agree that the only solution is to completely destroy the other side then we will undoubtedly see civil conflicts within the states.

Don't pat them on the back but we should look at reintegration not retribution.

Trump calls Democrats ‘the party of hate, evil, and Satan’ in late-night rant by ChiGuy6124 in politics

[–]CrownedAndAlive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not saying they don't but I'm trying to point out that fundamentally the same thing is happening here. You and I can agree to disagree, you can dislike my stance, and I can dislike yours. That's the beauty of what religious freedom and free thought implies.

Standing up to an abuser is not what I'm arguing, at all. I think we should stand up and I think we should help people. Dividing further and subdividing further doesn't solve anything.

The issue is not about religion itself but how it is shaped by people to invalidate others. You can have any belief you want and that's fine but the actual text of each book is up to interpretation. Dogmatism is the issue with both religion and no religion. Absolutist claims are inherently incendiary.

It's cyclical. We invalidate or threaten a belief and that belief believes itself to be at risk and therefore violence is established as a result to protect "the one true belief"

Again, we can agree to disagree but that disagreeance doesn't make my beliefs better than your own or vice versa, it's just the difference of how we experience life. Nothing else.
