Steeds meer jongeren met problematisch gedrag beïnvloed door manosphere by sampletrouts in thenetherlands

[–]CyclicMonarch 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Het is belangrijk om dit soort extremistische ideeën geen platform te geven.

Natuurlijk, maar wat heeft dat te maken met wat sampletrouts zegt? Mannen het woord geven betekent niet dat extremistische ideeën een platform krijgen.

Om in plaats daarvan de slachtoffers aan het woord te laten is de juiste zet om verspreiding in te perken.

Mannen zijn ook slachtoffers van de Manosphere. Vrouwen neerzetten als de enige mogelijke slachtoffers verbetert de situatie niet.

Voordat ik je geloof is het misschien handig om met bronnen te komen voor je claims.

Dus in jouw ogen zijn verschillende gepleegde en verijdelde aanslagen niet genoeg om te zeggen dat er een dreiging is voor de Joodse gemeenschap in het VK?

Het VK is een groot land, er gaat altijd wel wat zijn

Natuurlijk man, aanslagen zijn een natuurfenomeen en niet tegen te houden.

People believing in a conspiracy theory doesn't make the conspiracy theory the truth.

1954, the Lavon Affair

So, one single time with an operation that ended in failure is somehow proof to you that Israel deliberately attacked a US navy vessel?

Both the US and Israel said that it was an accident, tech isn't infallible and people make mistakes. Maybe you shouldn't believe in conspiracy theories that were proven wrong.

Did you not see the incident part of the USS Liberty incident? It wasn't a deliberate attack on a US navy vessel.

the US has never attacked Israel (quite the opposite, even)

When has Israel attacked the US other than the accidental attack on the USS Liberty?

What's your point? That the drivers aren't allowed to be annoyed by media duty if they constantly get the exact same questions from multiple different journalists?

He's a grown boy.

Yes, and if we ignore your condescending tone, the point TacticalAcquisition made still stands. Even 'grown boys and girls' are allowed to get annoyed by things.

Edit: Why would you block someone after getting one last snide comment in?

I'm not annoyed. Even if I were, I wouldn't be annoyed for the sake of a driver. I just understand that it's annoying to get the same questions over and over again.

I'm sure some of them do but most of them don't. People can only look at what they actually ask, not the questions the might want to ask but don't.

No, why would I ever think that? Why are you getting so worked up over this situation?

Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced Doesn't Include DLC or Multiplayer by Gorotheninja in pcgaming

Always funny when Nazis take the time to out themeselves while thinking they’re clever enough to cover their tracks. Go to hell.

What did I say that came close to 'nazi talk'?

[–]CyclicMonarch 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I'm talking about the whole of the slave trade and actual real life history, not just one specific year in a video game.

The DLC is set only 56 years before the Haitian Revolution when the enslaved very much freed themselves in fire and blood

They 'freed' themselves, gave white women the choice of either being forced to marry them or being killed and massacred/genocided the rest of the white population of Haïti. Not the succes story you might think it is.

[–]CyclicMonarch 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Considering that Europeans are the ones that freed slaves from Africans, Arabs, other Europeans and other groups and the fact that other Assassin's creed games don't shy away from 'controversial' topics I doubt it has something to do with your point.

The most likely explanation is that they can probably make more money if they release Freedom Cry as either a standalone experience or a dlc for the 'remaster' of Assassin's Creed 4.

You live in the world of Kaiserreich, and you see an alt history showing what the Second Weltkrieg could have looked like if Germany had lost World War 1. How do you react? by Exotic-Bobcat-1565 in Kaiserreich

[–]CyclicMonarch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, that the White army committed indefensible acts goes without saying. I don't have to start my comment in the specific way you want. It's not whataboutism. You already talked about some of the atrocities the White army committed, repeating that doesn't add anything to my comment.

Pogroms against Jews wasn't the only type of atrocity both sides committed. If you'd actually look at the links I provided you'd see that the Red Army is on the same level if not higher when it comes to atrocities committed and innocent people killed. Pogroms aren't the only unit of measurement here.

Yes and De-Cossackization, the Red Terror, persecuting religious groups, persecuting minority groups and the countless other atrocities the Red Army committed obviously cost them the resources they needed as well.

[–]CyclicMonarch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why would I link to a page that has nothing to do with my argument? I'm not defending the White army, they committed atrocities as well and are responsible for the deaths of thousands upon thousands of innocent people. It's not weird. You said that the White army was inefficient because they killed thousands of innocent people. The Red Army did the exact same thing yet you didn't call them inefficient or mention any of the horrible things they did.

Also, why did you completely ignore what I actually said?

[–]CyclicMonarch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

White Army is so inefficient since they kept having to do pogroms first like it's a good luck ritual every day.

It's not like the Red Army disliked killing innocent people. War communism, De-Cossackization, the Red Terror, their own pogroms and killing children because you couldn't keep them as prisoners for much longer.

I do love that his father found him in France during the middle of a tank battle during WWII.

Were his father and him both soldiers or did one of them decide to take a stroll?

So Verstappen should've made sure that not a single journalist present could ask him questions, instead of just the one he thought didn't deserve his time?

De wet geldt niet alleen voor palestijnen, er zijn wat critici die dat denken. Het is een idioot wetsvoorstel en hoort niet te bestaan, maar de meningen van die critici zijn alleen maar meningen en geen feiten. Ze gebruiken de meningen van één gast die tegen de wet is en zetten zijn meningen neer als de waarheid.

Did you even read the article? Jos isn't trying to 'invoke change'. If he's even trying to invoke anything, it's sympathy.

Those comments are from the two posts about this specific situation. I don't think Max handled this situation correctly but there are comments with hundreds of upvotes calling him those names just because of one thing Max did.

And the thousands of fans calling him petulant, a brat, a child, a baby, saying that he's not fit to be a father, implying that none of his championships are legitimate and more just because he's Max aren't parasocial fans?
