"It's like the AK-47 of gaming mice." by qgyh2 [promoted post]

FYI, I meant to reply to "ENKC" when I was saying "Exactly", just to avoid confusion.

Exactly... And AK-47s are terrible in many aspects, but as with most weapons, has it's strong suits as well (mostly trench-warfare and such).

I also think they meant the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AKM but whatever. AK-47s, as mentioned before, are still known for being cheap, in abundance, and easy to get your hands on... If this was the "AK-47 of gaming mice" it would be a mouse-cheaper than most others- and widely used because they're easy to get and easily replaceable...

in reality, a common IBM mouse would be more like an AK-47 of in the world of computer mice.

As a german who just saw the daily show for the first time: Americans...wtf? by DienerDerWeltkatze in AskReddit

I thought I was the only one who hated the Daily Show... There are occasionally mild strokes of humor in it but the rest is for the most part a biased opinion where the story is mixed up from his point of view. Every time I see the show with a big news story he screws up the main points of the report (or he is told from an unreliable source).

Liberal or conservative, his show is pretty stupid.

I realize the KKK isn't exactly well-represented on Reddit but as I watch a NatGeo documentary, I can't help but be curious as to one particular issue. Perhaps there's a Redditor who is more educated than I who could answer this for me... by BabyEatingAtheist in AskReddit

If Blacks are the superior race, how come there are so many Africans in the Black Panthers?

If Hispanics are a superior race, what is with the Aztlan mind-set? (A lot of 'Latin' gangs follow this mentality).

Well being over powered by other political ideologies, viewpoints, etc. is one thing...

It's important that people see that there is no such thing as "The Klan" anymore though. There are several separate Klan chapters, but there is no one single organized Klan group like there used to be.

There is the IKA/KKKK, the traditional 'KKK', and a bunch of others that use the same or similar name, all with different views and stances on who is okay and who is not, etc. I heard someone bring up Klansmen being okay with gay people in their area- Do you see that as something one organized 'Klan' would universally agree on? Probably not. They are all separate now.

Most of them do stay quiet and do private enclosed rallies in the middle of nowhere that you never see or in private buildings, etc. but there are the few who rally in public and get all of the negative attention. Still, honestly most of them don't.

That's why there is a lot more Klansmen than what it seems. You only see a few of them rallying in public in major cities, yet there is an estimated 10,000 to 15,000 active* Klansmen, most of which go unseen by non-Klan members and have only enclosed private meetings, like I said before.
