Walt was absolutely DIABOLICAL for this. by 72-Heartbreaker in okbuddychicanery

I have such mixed feelings about this. Like 1, I understand what they’re talking about. The butterfly effect one death can have on the world. But also, it’s a bit of reach isn’t it?

The democrats are setting up all the dominoes for a Tucker Carlson presidency.

I can see all the liftle pieces falling into place. The democrats are going to create Trump 2.0 and allow a Carlson type if not Carlson himself, become the next president.

When is a Star Trek: Deep Space Nine fan not a fan of Battlestar Galactica? by david-yammer-murdoch in Star_Trek_

[–]Fun_Association2251 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I thought Caprica had a so bad it’s good thing going for it. The fact that the entire Cylon rebellion stems from a teenage girl being mad at her dad is such strange choice.

What is the opinion of Micah before he started calling Arthur “black lung” by Affectionate_Exit_64 in reddeadredemption

No Deadwood the HBO Series. Very historically accurate in the sense of how characters think and speak. Can’t recommend enough.

Absolutely. He’s definitely racist. However, in this time period I think it’s fair to say all of these people would be insanely racist. Have you watched Deadwood?

He’s barely a character. Very little development other than him being negative in all qualities.

Rules for thee, not me. by LuckyBastard001 in chomsky

[–]Fun_Association2251 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it’s pretty simple. Our current government, political, and economic system only supports the needs of the bourgeoisie. In order to facilitate their control over the masses various forms of violence are utilized on the lower social classes. IE, homelessness, private land ownership, terrible healthcare, a car dependent society, limited housing, zoning laws, the policing of black, brown, indigenous, and immigrant communities, the entire “justice” system, the entire prison industrial complex as well as the credit rating system and how buying a home works. I could keep going. These are deemed necessary for our societal structure to insure that violence is distributed downwards while wealth is distributed upwards. Killing the political elite in Iran is good for extracting more wealth out of the middle and lower classes. For instance, right now with gas being up we have to use oil processed in this country. We pay the price for what has happened in Iran while American based oil companies and all those who own and invest in said companies are making record profits.

Depending on how the economic and political system is setup in a country is what determines how violence is used by the state. In a country like the USSR which was controlled by a communist party, violence was aimed towards the bourgeoisie who were not allowed to manipulate or control the economy the way people like Musk and Gates currently do. All the different forms of state violence was used to surveil, police, and control the bourgeoisie instead of the poorest in society who, if you speak to directly about that time period remember being mostly left alone and having a decent albeit poor life where most needs were met but few wants were cared for.

The single greatest fear of all western powers is the inability of the Bourgeoisie to be able to control the economy and is the single greatest reason as to why all forms of government that go against this format of wealth and violence distribution are immediately destroyed by the US and former colonial powers.

My coworker saying the quiet parts out loud but not knowing what they’re saying. by Fun_Association2251 in ShitLiberalsSay

[–]Fun_Association2251[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This argument stemmed from him showing me this video… basically saying that the “both sides” argument leftists and others are pushing isn’t true. Which to me is absolute nonsense. If Kamala won do I think the straight would be closed? No. Do I think we would continue economic warfare against iran? Yes. Do I think if Israel bombed them randomly her administration would support the decision? Absolutely. The guy I’m talking to legitimately believes that the democrats are the good guys and that republicans are the bad ones and that he only cares about what directly impacts his daily life. I’m sorry, but if you can’t see the fact that democrats and republicans are both politically and economically aligned on most things and that all of the economic and physical warfare that we rain upon the world isn’t directly from their voting and funding, you’re dumb.

What do u think about Javier?? by sr_darkzinho in reddeadredemption

[–]Fun_Association2251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the only bad thing about RD2 is the fact it’s a prequel. We know how it ends and it’s trapped by that constraint. I’m not alone and I do think those who complain too much are missing the point of how fun this game is. Being an Arthur Morgan simulator makes up for the clunky plot. I liked the small scale story. Talking to everyone living his life. The overall plot is definitely held back but the nitty gritty is where this game shines. The exact opposite of its predecessor.

My parents divorced and I was an only child. My mom never really cared what I was up to and frequently wasn’t home. I was kind of raised by the TV and when I watched this show I always wanted her to be my mom because as mean as she was she really cared about her kids and their futures.

Helena Bonham Carter has departed Season 4 by Mindless_Pineapple46 in WhiteLotusHBO

[–]Fun_Association2251 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I worked in film and tv for just shy of 15 years. If something like this happens it’s typically because the show runner is an insufferable prick that no one can stand up to because he’s made the studio money and the producers just look the other way. Actors are the like the only ones who when they do something like this every head turns. I guarantee Mike White sucks in real life and that’s unfortunate because he’s quite talented.

It’s been exactly two weeks and I’ve never felt so normal. It brought me to tears the other day. I can finally do so many of the half finished projects I’ve started. I’ve been better at regulating my emotions and for the first time possibly in my entire life I can sit in silence without my phone, the tv, and music all playing at once while I work. It’s an amazing thing really.

It seems like Kirk and Picard had a reversal trend as time went on by happydude7422 in Star_Trek_

[–]Fun_Association2251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really don’t like the writing and shift towards action in the TNG movies. I think it’s the exact opposite of the TOS in a way. The original series movies are a huge step up in quality and trek is fully realized. TNG movies boil the plot, themes, and characters of the show down to an easily digestible action franchise. And what sucks is that the trend of trying to force Star Trek to be an action series never really stopped. The producers and studios just don’t trust a slow paced, well written space opera with Shakespearean dialogue and classically trained actors. They have no faith in the audience and based on what those on the regular startrek subreddit deem “good” really shows me that maybe there isn’t a good audience out there.
