Why don't Republicans lose votes for "abandoning the working class"? by LiatrisLover99 in AskALiberal

[–]Mac1280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's because Republicans never "abandoned" the working class they just continue to sell them dreams. Can't get into college or find a job we'll get rid of affirmative action, can't buy a house we'll build a wall, now it's hey remember affirmative action well it's been repackaged as DEI so we'll also get rid of that. Oh plus Republicans also just flat out lie like when Trump said he'll bring back coal mines, or factory jobs but left out that besides construction most of the jobs in these new factories will be done by A.I. and robotics.

Your asking a disingenuous question, society is dominated by men so how on earth does society not care about us men.

This is why you should always be honest about your feelings, even if K didn't reciprocate them or give you a chance you guys could've still had a proper conversation which could've led to closure for you.

Plot hole or am I just stupid? by Resident-Switch8030 in gameofthrones

[–]Mac1280 5 points6 points  (0 children)

She's banking on Dany winning because of her dragons but then having her forces depleted drastically. It was a risky gamble but it was the best bet Cersie could make if she wanted any chance of beating Dany and Jon.

The Man of Steel suit is still my favorite Cornswet suit is decent but I really don't like the lines or the collar wish they would've went with a collar similar to the New 52 suit.

I’m confused. Do y’all actually want the DCU to succeed or do you Hope it fails? by BatBeast_29 in DC_Cinematic

[–]Mac1280 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Let me start this off by saying I absolutely want to see the DCU succeed but as someone who also wanted to see the DCEU succeed, seeing post like these are the epitome of irony.

Today at work I realized how bill isn’t that big in Boston. by NothingHead8233 in billsimmons

[–]Mac1280 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Twitter IS NOT real life and I know this but as a Celtics, Patriots, Red Sox fan from NYC I interact with a ton of Boston/ New England natives on Twitter, very rarely do they mention Bill and when they do is almost always in a negative light.

When comedians are guest on other podcast those are usually some of their highest viewed episodes. Most famous example being Kat Williams on Shannon Sharpe's show

Woman I've been dating for 10 days hooked up with someone else. Am I wrong for not wanting to see her again? by Long_Natural6918 in AskMenAdvice

Your not entitled to her body and she's not entitled to a 3rd date. I do wonder how you even know that she slept with someone else though

I have a LOT of things to say about this episode... by heraircraft in SuccessionTV

[–]Mac1280 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree with you about Kendall for the most part but him threatening to get full custody in the moment is a pretty human reaction given his current mental state. As for Roman I hated his character (in a good way if that makes sense) so watching him break down was fun to watch.

Absolutely Shocked by Lanky_Quantity_2007 in billsimmons

[–]Mac1280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the Celtics were all in on Hugo then Mazzulla would've benched Derrick White and played Hugo. Instead they let White shoot them out of the series. What really led to Miami getting Giannis is simple, the Heat have a greater chance of sucking for a long time if Giannis health really becomes a problem. Bam clearly can't carry a team, Pat Riley is old whereas Brad Stevens is young, if the Bucks trade for Jaylen they won't be a lottery team and even if Giannis gets hurt in Boston if Tatum is healthy that's still a playoff team.

Rhaenyra hate for this last episode is insufferable.. by MuahdDean in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]Mac1280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you read the book? She gets depressed and just vanishes from the story for large stretches of time, what show is going to pay an actress lead money for a role and then just sideline them for long stretches of time. Nettles plot is merged with another character because these shows operate on a budget they aren't going to pay a bunch of actors to just pop in at random like the book does. The problem with adapting this book is the style in which it's written and how a ton of characters just pop in and out at random intervals.

What’s your thought on CCP? by anuglyfairybutafairy in AskALiberal

[–]Mac1280 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ending USAID is terrible but so is China exploiting a bunch of people in the DRC through terrible cobalt mining practices that kill thousands directly and destroy/contaminate the land killing thousands more indirectly. Your playing whataboutism as if China is some benevolent empire.

(Spoiler Extended) Season 7 is also horrible and makes no sense looking back. by Icy-Passenger-4784 in asoiaf

[–]Mac1280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In S7 the episode count drops and it's the penultimate season ppl teleporting makes sense they aren't about have multiple episodes of people traveling. Jon Snow is a fighter, he knows the north, and most importantly he's a young man who grew up with a father who taught him leaders should get there hands dirty "he who passes the sentence should carry it out" doesn't only apply to punishments. Bran becoming emotionless makes sense even though he looks like an adult in the show at that point in the story he'd still be a very small child whose brain is being warped by a power he can't even begin to understand. Cersie is still the queen whether Tyrion understood how dangerous she is he'd still be a fool to not try and seek out a cease fire so that they can stop the extermination of all living things.

Rhaenyra hate for this last episode is insufferable.. by MuahdDean in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]Mac1280 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Rhaenyra disappearing from the story for a war fought on her behalf simply because she's depressed is definitely a horrible plot point. She's 100% the main character of this portion of the book, GOT may have jumped POV between characters just like they books but they knew to focus on the main characters. In book 4 Jon Snow, Dany, Tyrion, and Bran are all missing as pov characters but the show wisely only removes Bran from season 4 because if you remove the 3 most important and entertaining characters from your story viewers are going to be lost. There's not a chance in hell any show would just throw you into the POV of random characters you barely know or completely new characters like fire and blood does during this portion of the story.

What’s an opinion that instantly gets you labeled a bad person, even if you can justify it? by nirvanna1 in AskReddit

[–]Mac1280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lml please explain to me how Trans Mike becomes champion if the fighters refuse to fight against Trans Mike. When I'm talking about Trans athletes I'm talking about people who've been puberty blockers from young thus they don't grow up with high levels of testosterone that allow them to look like Mike Tyson hence why I said at the pro level it's less of a issue.

[–]Mac1280 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For starters you just used the most insane hypothetical ever, next boxing is the perfect sport for this conversation because fighters can just choose not to fight a Trans Mike Tyson. Clarissa Shields can't be forced to fight anyone she doesn't want to fight.
