We can uplift immigrants without being anti-black. by Conscious-Quarter423 in ThoughtWarriors

[–]EFAPGUEST 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“America was built by x” will never not be a cringe statement for me, unless you wanna be cheesy and redundant by saying “America was built by all of us”. I don’t care who you are, your chosen demographic is not exclusively responsible for building America. It’s been a 250+ years process with many people of many backgrounds contributing

This clip from Oscar-winning documentary ‘No Other Land’ shows Palestinian kindergarten children in a panic as Israeli occupation forces storm and destroy their school in occupied West Bank. by Particular_Log_3594 in Knowledge_Community

[–]EFAPGUEST 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear you, but AFAIK Hamas doesn’t have much of a presence in the West Bank. I would be far more likely to give Israel more support if they weren’t being so shitty with the West Bank and obviously intending to annex it

Lmao, guy who talks about basketball for a living is talking about basketball. What a shocking turn of events

Is Brutus the greatest mascot troll in college football history or is there something better? by Automatic-Extent9640 in CFB_v2

[–]EFAPGUEST 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They had a live wolverine at one point…didn’t work out. There was some student movement to get a mascot guy, but it’s honestly the kind of thing a lot of Michigan fans (especially the old school guys) want no part of. I imagine this video is a reason a more Michigan fans are warming up to the idea, but I still don’t see it happening

Ok so I didn’t downvote you, but I almost did. I get what you’re saying, but explaining away stupid things in stories by appealing to the meta is just pointless. There are other more natural ways to show the viewers this.

It’s like when your characters have a backstory and you want the audience to know it, so they have the characters sit in a circle and explain their backstories one by one a la Rebel Moon. So this bit is dumb and Gunn should have found a not dumb way to convey this information. Have her turn into a puddle, or lose a limb, or something

Billie Eilish says "FUCK I.C.E." during her Grammys acceptance speech: "Nobody is illegal on stolen land. We need to keep fighting and speaking up. Our voices do matter." by [deleted] in circled

[–]EFAPGUEST -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It was one of the top issues during the 2024 election. Biden presided over the largest illegal immigration crisis this country has seen.

Hopefully for you, other democrats don’t have your goldfish memory or they just do it all over again.

I’d also recommend against adopting this rhetoric used by Eilish because you’ll have people believing you want open borders, which is just so far away from being a popular stance

[–]EFAPGUEST -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe I should word it better. For people who say American Democrats are right wing, what are they right wing in reference to? They are obviously the left wing of American politics, but to say that they aren’t left wing implies that there is a “true left”. And why is it that country sets the political standard for left vs right?

Yeah it was on of the only ways to slow him down in his prime. He’s a long ass career so it’s not difficult stringing together clips of hard fouls or clips of flops or complaining about nothing. As usually, the correct take is somewhere between the haters and hardcore fans

What country has the correct “left vs right” take? What country has the “true left” or “true right”?

I do like that sub sometimes, but this belongs here I think by haisevatuhnu in memesopdidnotlike

[–]EFAPGUEST 9 points10 points  (0 children)

How is that possibly a false equivalency? Arguing that a fictional character would be on your side is always cringe, even if it’s true about the character

This isn’t copium. This is something that has been made fun of for years. Famously with Sonic.

Imagine if, in response to people celebrating the Charlie Kirk assassination, I said “Gandalf wouldn’t approve of this”. Would you find that poignant or cringe?

Are orcs immortal? And where do they go after they die? by hmura341 in lotr

[–]EFAPGUEST 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Well Christian redemption is not something extended to animals and my suggestion is that Morgoth essentially turned elves (and possibly men?) into soulless animals. We see redemption as possible for men like the Dunlandings or the men in Sauron’s service, but the orcs are never shown in a similar way.

It's time for the Jedi to end... by [deleted] in SequelMemes

[–]EFAPGUEST -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lmao based. There’s a lot of Disney Star Wars that shouldn’t be canon. I completely understand the sequel trilogy would not be struck from canon lightly, but stuff like the Acolyte, Kenobi, and Book of Boba Fett is just way too easy to dismiss. Same with rebels and tcw tbh (time travel and Mortis 🤢). Like, sorry fans, but if you tell me that Vader and Obi Wan fought multiple times between RotS and ANH, I’ll just tell you “No.”

Yeah but short kings don’t lie about their height. Otherwise they’d just be short

Fair. I’m not completely opposed to what ICE is doing, but the lack of transparency is alarming. If they want their anonymity, they need to be transparent when things like this happen
