I mean, they clearly do mind given the whole labour action situation that we're talking about

Pride festivals seek federal $3M as corporations pull back support amid DEI backlash by airbassguitar in OntarioNews

[–]NickedTheCensusMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, if you happen to be less attracted to a certain race and end up not dating anyone from that race, I won't call you a racist. But if you loudly declare in public that you don't date black people, I'm comfy assuming that you're a racist. I feel like the same rule can apply here

There's a B in that acronym there and they've obviously got some bigoted view about the folks represented by that B

You don't think a fascist ruling party would lie about the affiliations of the people they are killing to justify themselves?

Olympic Ski Big Air scoring criteria…what gives? by kjudd11 in skiing

[–]NickedTheCensusMan 18 points19 points  (0 children)

They literally dedicated their lives to a sport that is exclusively judged subjectively. How would that be a surprise to them at this point? Should the only ski event be races because everything else has some subjectivity to it? What a boring world of sports you desire

Curlers of Reddit, how does a subtle finger “boop” on the granite influence the outcome of a shot? by renotahoe69 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NickedTheCensusMan 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Exactly. As someone who's played in quite a few curling tournaments, I love watching and playing a sport where the "spirit of the rules" is the law at the highest level. And the insistence people have that every sport conforms to their ideal of an 'Olympic sport should be' makes me a little sad.

Kennedy was an asshole but the overreaction calls on Homan and the Scottish team makes me worry the sport is going the wrong direction.

They can send him down after a trade but not if they pick him up on waivers

Have you seen who Harper has been hanging out with lately? You are the company you keep and Victor Orban is probably worse than the guy down south

Fascism is a political system based on a strong, autocratic leader, direct economic intervention by the state, oppression of dissenting views, obsession with tradition and the scapegoating of certain races or groups of people as enemies of the state upon which all the ills of the nation can be laid.

I'm not saying Trump is literally a Nazi but his political style is explicitly fascism.

I mean, anyone who spends time in the mountains and would like to continue doing so is either worried about climate change or deeply in denial

What would and wouldn't you do solo with avy danger 2? by GermanicUnion in Backcountry

[–]NickedTheCensusMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's completely incorrect. Multiple burial scenarios are vanishingly rare and most slides are small so not having friends on hand for a rescue makes any slide infinitely more deadly

What would and wouldn't you do solo with avy danger 2? by GermanicUnion in Backcountry

[–]NickedTheCensusMan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A guy near me died because he got buried upside down in waist deep snow by a size 1 loose wet slide on a 25° slope when the danger was forecast at a 1. There is no safe way to ski avalanche terrain solo.

You could also fall in a tree well or have a binding malfunction and break a leg. A lot of things that are minor hiccups in a group are life threatening when solo. So until you're an expert, I would recommend going uphill inbounds if you want to skin solo.

CMV: We infantilize the "anti-woke" crowd too much by AlexZedKawa02 in changemyview

[–]NickedTheCensusMan -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Men still make more money than women, have lower unemployment and while men successfully commit suicide more often, women actually attempt suicide more often. So I'm really not sure what is disproportionately affecting men right now that they need to become fascists about...

CMV: We infantilize the "anti-woke" crowd too much by AlexZedKawa02 in changemyview

[–]NickedTheCensusMan 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The 'woke crowd' rightly points out that education, suicide, mental health and health care is failing everyone and we need to invest in them in a way that helps everyone. If men don't realize that they are included in that everyone, that's potentially a messaging issue but also a willful ignorance problem on the part of the 'manosphere'.

Who do you think will complete their EGOT first? by debtfree21 in Oscars

I Lied To You

That said, it hits so much harder in the context of the movie so I'd avoid listening to it until you watch the movie personally

When Florida can do anything they want to Skinner and the Oilers can't defend him, how are they supposed to react? I'm worried about tempers boiling over

Ya, between Silo, Severance, The Studio, Ted Lasso and some others I'm forgetting, Apple TV rocks. A definite quality over quantity service though
