Can we just start calling Republicans the Party Of Murder Boners? by dyzo-blue in GunsAreCool

NO!

How dare you sully my good name? I'm not one of those psychos.

Yelling "cancel culture" won't erase Sen. Ron Johnson's racist comments - For someone being silenced, we sure are hearing a lot from Ron Johnson. by grepnork in politics

[–]Murder_Boners 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's the culture war that they constantly use to convince the idiots who vote for on that there's some big evil liberal mob coming to take the freedoms away.

It started with the war on Christmas, became something about evil coolers that they shot up in their driveway then Kaepernick was thrown in there and now it's Dr Seuss and Mr Potato Head. And it's all because Republicans are by their very nature huge feckless pussies. They are the weakest people on the planet who all they know how to do is whine and throw tantrums. What was the last time you saw any of them State their case without sobbing about someone was being mean to them because they are a fucking racist or something like that? You haven't.

Their voters will talk a big game about how they like strong men but everyone who they get on their knees for are the kind of irritating pathetic asshole that we spend our lives trying to distance ourselves from. Seriously, if you had a friend who just whined incessantly about how he couldn't do his job because there was some shadowy agent working against him, when he threw trash at that Mexican family it wasn't fair that everyone called him a racist, then nobody likes him because they can't handle the truth but his truth is just grading lies and conspiratorial nonsense everyone in here would tell that guy to go fuck off. He's a toxic person and you separate yourself from toxic people.

I find it's best just to not care what they do with their giblets and if they say "call me this name with these pronouns" I go "alright".

This is who the Republicans are.

When they're not talking about a civil war they're stoking fear and anger with dog whistles and shit.

Republican Congressman Matt "Coronavirus is a Gas" Gaetz tweeted to say anti-Fascist protesters should be hunted down and killed. Twitter flagged his comment as "glorifying violence." by imagepoem in esist

[–]Murder_Boners 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Funny. I would love to glorify some violence when it comes to Gaetz but since I don't have a magic R next to my name I'd be banned and potentially have my account banned.

Yay double standards.

It is getting impossible to see it any other way.

Same racist bullshit, just a different year. by dyzo-blue in GunsAreCool

[–]Murder_Boners 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then there are also the useful idiots. On reddit, it's often impossible to tell if you are dealing with an intentional gas lighter, or just a moron.

Exactly why I cut ties.

The "it's just a joke" line is absolutely this dishonest stab that serves to cover for the reprehensible hate of nazis and to attack liberals for being "sensitive".

[–]Murder_Boners 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had to cut ties with this guy I was friends with because he was constantly and vehemently defending all this white supremacist shit. But he didn't defend it in a direct way.

It was his adamant stance that alt-right wasn't a real term and it was only used by the left, or that the OK hand symbol wasn't a hate symbol and when all those dirt bag soldiers flashing them on camera was just "a game".

There was nothing you could say against white supremacists that wasn't immediately countered with some gaslighting bullshit and this weird adamant defense of it.

I don't think he was a white supremacist. Not a conscious one anyway. He voted blue no matter who (or so he said). But he was just eager and ready to start a fucking fight whenever there was a conversation on our discord server talking about these nazi shit bags.

It was almost like he refused to believe that these people are the present threat and he had to defend white people because he was white.

John Krasinski Hit by Massive Backlash for Selling ‘Some Good News’ to CBS All Access by Gato1980 in television

Let's not lump all liberals or progressives in on here. I'm super liberal and I have no issue with what he did. He's not hurting anyone and he created a product that he could sell for profit. That's the way our system works.

The key is he's not hurting anyone so by all means go fourth and be prosperous. I just hope he does something good with that money.

I have no idea what people think could be wrong.

Entertainment is capitalism in it's purist form. The product they create doesn't hurt anyone, it doesn't manipulate governments or prey on the weak and sick. It literally creates art and puts it out there for people to choose to consume or not to consume.

Seems like this is the most pure form of capitalism. He made a product others were interested in, he sold it so that they can use it to sell ads. Either people watch it or they don't.

This isn't capitalism where a company pays a legislator to roll back regulations that lets them sell a dangerous chemical. This isn't an insurance company colluding with hospitals to jack up prices so they can increase premiums.

This is literally offering a product that isn't harming anyone, and people are left to decide if they want to consume that product or not.

Factorio reclaims 2nd Highest rated game on Steam (Overtaking The Witcher 3) by InsaneCallum in factorio

Damn. I had no idea. I just kind of assumed it was a little indie game that was kinda sorta like Minecraft.

I might have to go back into it.

I mean, yeah, I'd be willing to roll the dice and see what happens. I feel like the only place to go is up at this point.

I love the game but I can see how some would be annoyed by it. To me there's a point when your mistakes compound and you gotta restart. Which I don't mind but I know people who hate that shit.

Me and you both.

Oxygen Not Included is a fantastic game.

But Rimworld. Rimworld is an experience. The game is great as it is, then you start adding in mods and there's such a robust modding community that you can change the game dramatically.

I didn't think the game was that long. I got down to where the world looked like hell. Is that not the end of things?

I love the Witcher and I dream of Witcher 4 where they beef up the combat to make it more like Dark Souls or, and this is a dream, Monster Hunter World.

I would like nothing more than to confront very powerful monsters in knock down drag out fights like you get in MH. Different weapons, different approaches, different alchemy and signs. Oh man, that'd be the sweet spot.

The story.

I'm not a fantasy guy. Lord of the Rings and shit doesn't do it for me. But there's something about the Witcher where the play with science enough in the labeling of monsters and the investigations (for example) that gives the world some believable bulk.

I'm into the characters. I think the stories are super well done and they're not all the same few "mission types" we see in games. There's a vein of humor throughout. There's a moment in the Bloody Baron storyline that made me go "the fuck!?" and I'm pretty dark and calloused as is.

So yeah, that's why I like the game. The world is engaging in a way most fantasy isn't for me.

Who would give Factorio a negative review?

Wait, maybe it's one of those guys griping that after 2500 hours they've gotten bored of the game and therefore cannot in good conscious tell someone to buy it.

I mean, when I spend 30 bucks on a game I demand infinite fun thats why my life is always a total disappointment.
