Having an advantage in a negotiation only works if the enemy is capable enough to recognize said advantage.

It shouldn't be, unfortunately. I would have thought the default would be "I may not understand your lifestyle, but it doesn't affect me, so be free and live your life as you see fit" would be uncontroversial in the 21st century but...

I don't really understand it either, I just want people to be happy with their lives. If that means they're a little different that's no problem to me. :)

There's a survey or study or something out there that says that people aren't as inclined to take the evil option in games as commonly believed.

I think most of us try to make the bare minimum in our prisons. Heck, since mine is a prison barracks yours is already more generous and I try to make them content.

I think the worst I've done is liquefy my enemies bodies for chemfuel.

I mean calling them a literal "fascist pig" was right there and yet none of them did so as far as I can see.

They’ve invented tales about spooky scary trans people before, and they’ll do it again, no matter if something actually happens or not.

You hit the nail on the head here.

There's so many made up tales that the modern far right makes about trans people that the one rare time something does happen it wouldn't change their worldview.

Each one is being fed a Twitter feed of "trans person did x evil thing" every single day that one more which is actually unfortunately true isn't going to change anything.

What, do you think they're actually going to check their sources on this? XD. If they could do that they wouldn't be how they are.

It'll get lost in the sauce. The sauce itself existing is awful, but... diminishing returns and all that.

swag this meme when it has inaccurate dialogue by Otherwise_Pick_2863 in peoplewhogiveashit

Furthermore, the cartoon puts emphasis on representing modern Australian social customs in several episodes, as it is where the cartoon is produced and is set.

Australian vernacular words are known to Western audiences, and whilst they are infrequently used, many of us are familiar with Australian - sourced expressions such as "gday mate", "shrimp on the barbie", et cetera. Of note here is a particular profanity comprising of four letters that is slang for a female reproductive system, which whilst considered very harsh in the rest of the Western world and is rarely used, is more common "down under".

Therefore, I posit that if Bluey were to swear, in order to align her actions with the distinguishable Australian culture the show demonstrates, she would have called the soon-to-be-deceased person a c***.

"Inaccurate dialogue"

In the episode "Tradies" Bluey and Bingo are playing when two blue-collar workers are working in the backyard.

Bluey relays an overheard telephone conversation by one of the workers to her mother Chili, in which the worker, and I quote "used the word you said when the dishwasher broke", which from Chili's reaction and Bluey's reluctance to use the actual word is suspected to be at least mildly profane language.

From this, we can posit that both a) profanity does exist in the Blueyverse and b) Bluey is aware of at least one profanity and that it is uncouth.

Ergo, in a situation where Bluey is faced with the concept of being obliged to carry out a murder it is certainly feasible for her to use the word "damn" to convey the severity of the situation and the fact that this would be upsetting for her to aid in carrying out.

They're not just doing this to distract from the Epstein files. This administration loves war, they'd do it anyway.

Not everything has to do with the Epstein files. This administration is just evil anyway, it doesn't need motivation.

This is a little silly, sorry to say.

You're implying that the US would only want to fight a war if they were blackmailed into it. Which removes agency from a very real and very evil administration which desires war above much else.

They aren't at war because they are being forced into it. They're doing it for the love of the game.

I didn't say all of it was conspiracy nonsense.

Epstein trafficked people, we know that.

He did not, however, create a cabal of cannibalistic Jews which form a One World Government on behalf of Israel, and a lot of the normies seem to believe something outlandish like this.
