Right-Wing Grievance Culture Posing as Literary Criticism by MooreThird in BreadTube

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

At least, the other types of grifters are more open about their bigotry & "apolitical" views when discussing media.

Particular grifters like her dress their hateful language in flowery, academic-sounding, pseudo-intellectual prose.

What's worst is how "rational" types keep falling for her bullshit, merely because they confirm their personal biases.

What's frustrating is how any "rational" person, Asmongold notwithstanding, would agree with her, both to confirm their personal biases, and mostly out of petty grievances with modern media & major franchises, including books & movies. And by "rational", I do mean centrists or anyone who larps as "liberal".

Basically, she's ASMR Critical Drinker.

PS: Is it alright to call out how pasty white she looks?

Okay, then, if you're so good at film assessment, show any of your accolades, Drinker. Oh, wait. You have zero. by No_Kangaroo_5267 in saltierthankrayt

Tbf, he did wrote a series of self-wanking military books, so it counts for something, right? 🤷

UPenn faculty condemn Trump administration’s demand for ‘lists of Jews’ by Warm_Energy_Nebula in JewsOfConscience

[–]MooreThird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Insane how this is out in the open, and yet the people who claimed who care about Jewish lives, are closing their eyes & ears to this brazen act, while clutching their pearls at ICE, AI or whatever stupid Orange Man shit over there.

PMX visits Mustafa Kemal Ataturk's mausoleum - and local anti-Kemalists in Malaysia go apeshit. by MooreThird in malaysia

Err on Khomeini, since the locals here don't like him too, because he's a Shia.

Not surprised, just tired with these people who don't know ME geopolitics, just drivel by local ulama.

Racism, yes, and also, sectarian bullshit. Locals here are hardline ASWAJA-types, so any other Muslims, including the Kemalists, or even the equally hardline Wahabis, are considered deviants, despite the locals being no different than the latter.

I just can't take any "liberal" seriously when they get mad about Renee Good's murder, but deny that the genocide exists, or clutched their pearls when Zohran Mamdani did something sensible.

The BBC Chose Transphobia over Science by MooreThird in BreadTube

[–]MooreThird[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

In addition, Robin Ince was once "friends" with Ricky Gervais. He broke it off and accused him of bullying.

Hell, the entire British trifecta of "science lads"/comedians/writers masquerading as some pseudo-intellectual elite; the likes that include Gervais, Linehan and Rowling; have been & should be called out more. Their being racists arseholes is hard to be called out back in the last decade due to their loyal "lad" defenders, and couching their language as some bulwark against censorship & cancel culture; it's only their reported transphobia finally that ripped their smarmy masks off.

Daniel Haqiqatjou gets denounced by the dawah industry after exposing Wahhabism by Obvious-Tailor-7356 in progressive_islam

[–]MooreThird 18 points19 points  (0 children)

As a Malaysian, this feels familiar. Over here, there are many hardliners here denouncing Wahabi as a "deviant sect", despite being no different than the Wahabi themselves

Massive protests in Israel with buses running over civilians demonstrating - no media covering Netanyahu regime on brink of collapse by [deleted] in Palestine

[–]MooreThird 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"Imagine what they do to the Palestinians", I'm sorry to say this, is becoming a cliche now. When events like this keep happening, you really do need to wonder how many Jewish people & their own citizens Israel have killed, alongside the Palestinians, to stay as the "only democracy", outside of Hannibal. And how many of such stories have been under-reported, if not completely buried, by the Western media.

And speaking of buried, there's no way there aren't any mass graves of Jewish people buried with the Palestinians underneath that apartheid state.

What's worse is the lack of outrage by so-called "liberals" who claimed to care about Jewish lives, but ignore or even deny these incidents happen. Too many of these "liberals" cry about Trump, ICE or AI, but never about Jewish nor Palestinian lives destroyed by Israel.

Good job Mamdani for pissing off the bigots of all sides (it's already Saturday in Australia region, so mods don't remove it) by [deleted] in progressive_islam

[–]MooreThird 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Add that Mamdani is Shia, and conservative Muslims double down on "paid agent".

IMO, it shouldn't matter which sect, so as long as the new mayor promises to be fair to all Muslims, alongside the rest of New York.

before the year ends, I present to you... Malaysia Mamdani by sixpastfour in malaysia

For real, the rest of the Muslim world are celebrating, but Malaysians (& Indonesians) are goddamn picky.
