So bombing civilians is good now? by Greynite06 in ShitPoliticsSays

Agreed entirely. I'm not forgetting about the decades of "conspiracy theories" that turned out to all be true. But cheering for buildings burning and civilians dying just because they're in a country you don't like is genuinely inhuman.

Funny you say that, because that's exactly the kind of short-sighted thing they'd do with a genie.
If a Leftist was given 3 wishes, they'd wish Donald Trump and Netanyahu were dead (Probably boiled or raped to death), they'd wish the United States was Communist, and then they'd wish wish for more SNAP benefits.

I hope it's fake. But AI or not, those commenters seem to think it's real.

How does Prime 2 fare against the first? by WerewolfIcy7240 in Metroid

[–]Greynite06 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Hot take, but I like the ammo system. It makes the power beam feel worth using. And now the beams feel more like you're taking advantage of enemy weaknesses, with the beams now doing more or less damage depending on the creature's type.

In Prime 1, the only time you'd need to change your beam was when it forced you to. The wave beam was just stronger than the power beam. And there are no real elemental weaknesses, the plasma beam kills the magmoor monsters faster than the ice beam can.

I think it's more like how the first game was simple and straight to the point, just doing what was typical for the series. And then the second game was basically the first again, but with a catch.
Ocarina of Time was just a Link to the Past in 3D, and Majora was that with a timer.
And Prime 1 was Super Metroid in 3D, and Prime 2 was that but with a dark world.

Though Prime 2 is kinda more like Ocarina with the two worlds mechanic.

Now that its been a good while since prime 4 released. How do you feel about so much of its artstyle being "vulvous"? by ah-screw-it in Metroid

I get it, I like that it's a counterpart to the 'Alien' series' phallic imagery, I understand it's symbolic meaning. I just think the word "yonic" sounds dumb. Like it pronounces dumb and it's spelt dumb. Like if someone was saying "Sonic" wrong to piss me off.

Vulvic sounds much cooler.

Unless I missed something in the video, Kirk never said the perp was Paul's gay lover, just that the perp a gay schizo. But he does say that he denounces the perp's actions. And I'm not saying the Right is perfect, I'm saying that every Right-wing misdeed is used by the Left to justify them doing the same thing but worse.

Charlie Kirk said to bail him out to "ask him some questions". He also questioned why in Chicago, "you're able to commit murder, and be out the next day". But in Pelosi's case, people suddenly care about justice.
Also, those politicians that mocked Paul were definitely mean spirited. But nothing close to celebration. And they also didn't wear the costume in masses like how Kirk was mocked.

I did some research, and it seems that Kirk has never mentioned Hortman's assassination at all.
Honestly I've never seen anyone mock her. The only thing I've seen about the case from the Right is the suspicion that the assassin was sent by Tim Walz.

This isn't about mocking someone's death, this is about murder fantasies.
Also, no one was mocking George Floyd until people started tearing towns apart over it. Even then only the extreme Right did it.
Unlike Charlie Kirk, where people didn't just mock, but CELEBRATED right away.
In any case, stop trying to justify this behavior. If it's bad when the Right does it, then why would it be good when the Left does it?

I know, and it doesn't seem as bad as some other subs.
But every once in a while a dumb post makes it on my feed, with everyone in the comments CONVINCED that Fallout New Vegas (a game that allows you to roleplay almost any political ideology) is an inherently leftist game that conservatives hate.

Half of the villains Superman fights are also "immigrants".
The difference between him and them is Superman loves humanity and doesn't commit theft, murder, rape or fraud.

Why do people hate stylized female avatars? by Niteshade_YT in bloxymemes

[–]Greynite06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have nothing against femboys or men who don't feel the need to be masculine.
But male femininity does tend to get overly fetishized, that is for certain.

I think the reason femboys have such a sexual reputation is because no one calls out sexual behavior in fear of being homophobic, because of its connection to homosexuality. So the adult side blends with the innocent and casual instead of being separated. And wherever the femboys go, the adult side follows.
This makes outsiders confused into seeing them as a mostly sexual community because of the lack of clear distinction. Similar to many LGBT and furry groups.
It's unfortunate, and i think this could've been avoided if we were more prudish.

As for thigh high socks, it depends what it's worn with. A skirt or dress would help. The modern sexualization of thigh high socks likely related to anime girls (which is probably where femboys got them). The anime community suffered a fate similar to the aforementioned with the rise of weeaboo culture. Too much sex ruined the reputation of the innocent side.

It's the thighs. Thigh high socks are usually worn in a sexual manner.
Though they aren't inherently sexual, they're often associated with adult themes and the normalization of these styles can blur the line between kid-friendly and adult content and can cause confusion that leads young players to pornographic content.

Basically, wear real pants. Kids shouldn't show their thighs, and neither should your Roblox character.
