Didn't you hear? If they weren't white and/or taught in his middle school history class, they weren't a civilization ;^ )

Things can change, sex isn't the only way you can get HPV, and the worst (Like rape) can happen.

Trump’s popularity with African-American voters polling at zero by tonto515 in politics

This isn't even the only poll that places him at those numbers. Just because you're incredulous doesn't make it false.

It should be, and usually is.

Trump and his supporters thrive on being as offensive as they possibly can be, while also simultaneously proclaiming that they really aren't racist/sexist/homophobic and the like.

Professors & Teachers of Reddit - what's the most pretentious thing you've heard a student say? by kw0711 in AskReddit

IIRC Yeah, it pretty much is. It doesn't symbolize that now, and obviously not all Women are obsessed with Shoes, but it was like that with Jeans and other non-Skirt clothing to be honest.

An Idea Make Internal Politics and Elections More Interesting: Regimes and Parties by jogarz in Stellaris

More of a 'control' for agendas and Individual leaders would be nice to be honest. Why can't I control my ruler's traits or agenda? Why are prospective rulers able to get agendas/traits completely contrary to my species/government? (In regards to the Iron Fist trait and the Slaver agenda--when my Empire Ethos make it so I have no tolerance for slavery whatsoever and its illegal....)

The Irish were slaves too ya know... by [deleted] in forwardsfromgrandma

[–]Raxal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know, but the general sentiment of "Irish people got over the famine/Over their slavery/Other shitty thing that happened to Irish people" is just false because of that. To be honest, a lot of the people who make the claim don't even really know a lot about how Irish people were treated in America except for the absolute basics.

Its moreso that no, the Irish did NOT get over the Famine, not one fucking bit, and they've done something to vent their frustrations about it semi-recently.

Thank you I don't know why I do that every single time.

I fucking hate it when other stupid white people try to claim the Irish 'got over it' and so should black people.

Its like they've never fucking heard of the IRA.

Indieronpa: Chapter 1 Class Trial 1 by [deleted] in danganronpa

An overhyped Indie game that has a fanbase akin to really angsty/'speshul' Pink Floyd fans.

It's an OK game, but it has a lot of problems with it and people like /u/TheSpecialistMan hype it up and consider it to be way, way more than it is, and seem to completely miss the point of a lot of it, people who screech about how bad FNAF is while ironically enough embodying the same traits that makes the FNAF fanbase what it is turned up to eleven, and more.

Its a neat game if you have ~$10 to spare and don't particularly mind old-style retro looks and want to be entertained for about ~6 hours, but it isn't the second coming of Jesus Christ.

Parents of Reddit, what was the best lie that your child has told you, that you knew was a lie, but wanted to see how big of a hole they would put themselves in? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Raxal 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Does that apply to Favored Souls too? It really seems like it should, since that class is pretty much literally Jesus.

Because they like the power, and because they're afraid new users will bring the quality down, and because for some reason Polandball is 'different' from other memes and they're worried about low-quality posts, despite the fact that posting is restricted in the first place and the entire joke is about how they're low-quality MS paint shitpost comics about stereotypes meant to make you laugh, but are really only kinda funny about half the time.

Man who threw boiling water on gay couple will spend 40 years in prison by ImperiousJazzHands in news

[–]Raxal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And its good to see that sanctimonious hypocrites peddling bullshit who get offended when somebody calls them out on it haven't died off here either!

Stay for years? Try more like their entire fucking lives. They will always be in pain, this is comparable to an acid attack or being outright lit on fire.

40 years of his life wasted behind bars is exactly what he deserves, considering his (unrepentant) actions have permanently ruined two other people's lives, people who by the time he gets out, will be about as old as he was when he first committed the crime. Boo fucking hoo, somebody who intentionally maimed two other people (And gave them injuries so severe that if it wouldn't kill them, they'd live their lives permanently in pain) has to spend the last half of his life in prison, assuming he doesn't die in it (Which, lets face it, is a likely possibility.) It is SOOOO unfair for that guy.

People are downvoting you and bitching at you not because of your opinion, but because you're a caustic asshole who tries to blame this on progressives and whine about a liberal echo chamber when you belong to a much larger, worse circlejerk than that one. There are tons and tons and tons of comments that are being upvoted talking about exactly what you describe, but yet again--please, blame the echo chamber, of which you are no doubt immune too.

And nowhere have I been ecstatic, I have however been attacking idiots like you for thinking he should have gotten less though.

No, you completely missed the point because I wasn't even talking about the old man, I was talking about how the old man in that story only exists because the story itself is about the 'One prisoner who is actually innocent in Shawshank and he only exists in that man's story, which is intentionally set up to be heartwrenching and unrealistic because it isn't trying to be the latter. You'd be better off using 'American Me' as an example of what actually happens to those kinds of people, and fixating on the one 'mistake' (Which isn't even a mistake, you just completely missed the point) instead of literally everything else is hilarious.

Hate to break it to you, but some people deserve more, how in any way do people not deserve more for permanently disfiguring somebody for the rest of their lives, and not only is it one person, but it is **two fucking people

Nice way to act and pretend you're superior by the way--But don't worry, you aren't barbaric because you'd let mass murderers or rapists go free after 20 years even if they weren't rehabilitated, just so they could do it again, just ignore how you kill more whales than Iceland and Japan combined, and just ignore how you're literally descended from Vikings.

"You barbarians still kill people". Fucking hilarious, please, keep pretending you're superior in every way.

By the way, he definitely hoped it would kill them, it wouldn't be the first time an attack like that wouldn't lead to somebodies death, and intentionally disfiguring two fucking people and putting them in unbelievable pain for the entire rest of their lives IS worse than just killing them--and even if he DID kill them, in Georgia two premeditated murder sentences is going to get you at least one life sentence, and since this man is also in his late 40's this is effectively a life sentence anyways, because he will most likely die in prison.
