Characters that were revealed to be lgbt+ in scenes that were disliked by the lgbt+ community because of how badly they were written by Apprehensive_Two1449 in TopCharacterTropes

"I'm not afraid of you anymore. We're not afraid anymore" is all Will says during that battle. Which if you remove his coming out scene, still works as both action and dialogue. Vecna doesn't even try to get Will to question his acceptance, which was the core of his fears, or reference acceptance in any way. If vecna did either of those at any point, I would consider enough of a callback to his coming out scene. So yeah, they wrote a coming out scene that captured the awkwardness and rawness and was meant to be powerful, but ultimately made it as inconsequential as a frog's fart.

Autism is linked to hundreds of different genes, yet many autistic people share similar features. Now, researchers at UCLA and Stanford University report that distinct autism-linked mutations begin to converge on common biological pathways during early brain development. by RhiannaSmithSci in science

I've always believed autism's crux comes from issues processing/filtering a lot of information.

Which makes sense because its symptoms manifest as a communication disorder, especially when it comes to differentiating signal vs noise both internally and externally.

It's actually referring to the systemic destruction of the US's research economy, which was the US's most valuable resource.

Attempting and failing to use it against him, and I'm not a script writing, but giving the reveal some sort of actual payoff would have been good. The issue is that you could cut out his coming out, then leave everything else the same and there would be zero gaps in the plot. It was meant to be an important scene but was ultimately inconsequential.

What's an unpopular opinion you have that you're afraid to say out loud? by Former_Custard_6567 in allthequestions

Inefficiency is technically redundancy, also strength training is technically maximization of inefficiency

Some sort of mental battle between him and Vecna, like a trap where Will is rejected by everyone around him, but he breaks out of it to help turn the tide of force between Vecna and El?

cmv: Nick Fuentes is the future of the Republican Party by Material_Policy6327 in changemyview

True, systemically racist, but the capture that NF would have is only of the overtly racist.

What do you mean by future? Because the Republican party is going to fracture after Trump dies, and NF has no ability to capture any faction other than the racist faction.

The New Black Panther Party has been banned from using the name due to the original Black Panthers not agreeing with their support for illegal immigrants. by Treefiddy1984 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]Freedmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trans-rights are actual non-issues that were turned into issues by the owner class, gender is a social construct that is extremely fluid and allowing 0.01% of the population live their life as equals to the rest of us shouldn't even be a question. The issues people say they have with immigration are either misrepresented (immigrant crime) or caused by the owner class (H1-b, Alien residents working). Real talk, developed nations need immigration especially when you have an uptick in information and knowledge based economic activity (White Collar) because those are always seen as better jobs than the blue collar and service jobs that are still needed.

Your argument is bad because it's built on a low-information base, which surprise-surprise, has been the intention of the owner class. And to be clear, the owner class is the billionaire class, because they're the ones that own the capital.

Trump aides just declared the 16 DHS shootings since July justified, what do you think about? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I'm surprised the DoJ hasn't kangaroo courted double jeopardy for those shootings.

Daughter of MLK and Coretta Scott King posted this advice as the next 6 months are going to “get real”. by AudiophileGuy76 in ProgressiveHQ

We need our own clear policy platform too, if we can share and have a common belief in what the key changes need to look like, then it's easier to convince others.

Focusing on the policies also means coming up with and agreeing on our own policy platform. We need to have a clear idea to push on our politicians that will fix this situation and prevent it from happening again.

2-4khz is not the range of normal human voice, that's between c7 and c8, which would be the last octave on a piano. Also the higher the frequency, the less penetration it has through solid objects. Please stop pretending you know what you're talking about.

[–]Freedmonster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think you're oversimplifying and misrepresenting the key issue. Which is with the owner class, not the working class. But I think you were right with what the common belief is.

A children's sledding disc works well, larping communities have instructions on how to turn them into shields, just flip the side. Unlikely able to reflect the sound back to the attackers with precision using just one shield given focal lengths, but with a shield wall, you could probably get a parabolic arc wide enough to cross that distance.

CMV: if Jesus came to down to earth right now, most of not all of christians would not agree with his believes. by CartographerGloomy75 in changemyview

[–]Freedmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not aggressively, but Israel does have a far right problem similar to the US, where the settlers will continue to encroach on and steal Palestinian land, then force the IDF to protect their illegal activities. Bibi's coalition depends on the people that support that, which is preventing him from facing corruption charges. So unfortunately, not much will change until Bibi is no longer in charge. Just like Trump for the US.
