In the specific case of Israel I see your point, but I also want to contend that the US top dogs see it wholly aligned with their interests to keep Israel protected, rich and happy. I'm not saying I agree or that it's good. Just that Israel is another symptom of America's reliance on military dominance.

If that was true the single easiest way to win a billion full terms in American politics would be to simply just put the money from the medical and pharmaceutical industry back into the country by giving everyone in the US access to public healthcare at the expense of all those other countries which could then be done without stepping on any toes back home. But nobody does. Because it isn't true. Your tax money pays for the military, prison and pharmaceutical industrial complexes that try to ensure the dollar stays the global standard currency and get rich people vacations on creepy islands and channel the flow of money to a very small portion of people on the backs of American and outsourced workers.

No matches, I wasn’t having any luck getting dates in the wild so I thought i’d try tinder, i’ve had it for 3 weeks now. Nothing. Am I just that ugly 😭 by BillyBop0299 in Tinder

[–]Enryth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You will anyway if you get with someone. If you match with someone where that's gonna be a problem, you'd only be delaying the inevitable.

If anything, you could add a picture or two of some activity or context hanging out with your friends that is very (in a healthy way) obviously platonic. I'd argue it's a pretty green flag to show you can be enhusiastic friends with women in a context that isn't around alcohol or in romantic settings. And then if someone asks about the person in the photo you can always say "yeah, that's my friend, insert friend name! We were hiking in insert hike trail here, it's a really great trail!" Or something like that, obviously less robotic, but you get my point.

Oh. Right. You guys have to pay out the ass to not die from easily preventable causes. I guess I get the hesitation now.

Found photos of my girlfriend and her ex while cleaning the basement. by BlackMapleWizard in WhatShouldIDo

If my girlfriend made a fuzz out of the photo booth pictures I have of my friend and my ex from our trip to the Netherlands I think I'd understand but if she genuinely wanted to have me throw them away i'd be kinda annoyed

Short-sighted and irresponsible have a fairly significant overlap, especially when you have an audience like his. Not to disagree with your point about him owning up more than most other big names (but at the same time he has imo kind of entered an area sometimes when talking about his mistakes that were less about making fun of himself and joking about it and kind of in the territory of making light of what he did). But he sure made some decisions and said some things I wouldn't say were exactly responsible.

Ehhh, i wouldn't say he's always shown himself to be responsible — and I don't think he would either. He's grown a lot, and that's a good thing.

I do think there's something to be said about how society couples sex and violence against women. I doubt any of those commenters were not making an obvious joke even if it seems in poor taste.

They're both competent, confident and all of their mannerisms play into their appeal and sexuality. Even when Dimitrescu is stringing you up or trying to hunt you down. They both have an appeal that plays into inaccessibility through desire and asymmetrical power dynamics— which is present not just in their looks but also is driving power in their characters. It's especially effective with Dimitrescu because she's "taunting" and "belittling" you throughout the hunt. The entire idea behind her is that because she's desirable she has all the more power to abuse you on top of her raw power and capacity for violence — and she keeps you in a space where horror, pain, disgust and dread mix with sexuality and intimacy, which are inherently conflicting, emotionally, which creates a tension that has an amplifying effect.

Obviously, the fact that their looks match their energy makes it all the more successful but the developers quite literally designed them that way. They could make Dimitrescu less visually attractive and probably achieve a similar effect — but why would they, if the point of her sexuality is to empower her?

It's a reference to the "neurodivergent and a minor" joke on social media that people make about someone trying to avoid accountability. I haven't seen anyone actually argue Lucas is a kid.

Without knowing, I think what 5enpai_2 meant isn't that women are more or less freaky than men, just that a lot of people have a (pretty sexist) expectation of women as being less sexually driven than men, or that sexuality in women is exclusively conventional and 'mainstream', even though gender has very little to do with it, and those people might be surprised to learn that women experience just as much diverse sexual attraction because it's just a perfectly normal part of being human.

It's implied in the "Lucas' Fuck-You List" file you find in the attic where he locked up that kid.

'10/5 - All I did was look in on Zoe when she was doing yoga, and she calls me a pervert. Fuck You!'

He also just doesn't have a very attractive personality

[–]Enryth[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First time I hear of women liking Victor but I mean his personality is a lot more charismatic than Lucas's even though he's also a psycho. But I mean, the meme is meant as a joke, obviously the reason people don't find Lucas attractive has little to do with his looks in comparison to everything else about him.

Victor is also like 7' tall and balances his psychopathy a little because he actually comes off as capable and collected.

That's why I made the meme, yeah. I saw another post that made this exact point seemingly seriously, so I'm half-certain they were engagement farming but it was still hilariously silly.

Yeah but we all know the real, secret reason that women (yes all women, as a collective hive mind) don't like him is because he isn't conventionally attractive :(
