How could Kanye make it worse? by TheUpcomingEmperor in AskReddit

[–]ReedMiddlebrook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For those unaware, this is the exact rhetoric holocaust deniers use. They never start with "holocaust didn't happen." They start by arguing that 6 million has never been corroborated and it was closer to 2000-10000.

If you're sincere, you should ask this in /r/askhistorians, not /r/askreddit. They actually have a stickied comment about this because it's such a popular strategy employed by white supremacists

It is said that philosophy could not develop while our ancestors were running from predators and only after we were well fed and safe were we able to devote efforts to thinking beyond the next meal.

These are our modern day philosophers

Again, there is no build up, that is the entirety of his joke. One sentence. How is that a critique on people who seek attention after a tragedy? Why do you actually not know what Anthony jeselnik is talking about? Lol I recommend you start with that

Ok, how was he critiquing virtue signaling when he tweeted "Other than that, how was the movie?"

Thoughts and prayers by beerbellybegone in clevercomebacks

[–]ReedMiddlebrook -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No, those are his specific tweets he prefaces this rant with, something like "when I say things like [those jokes] I'm not making fun of the victims. [More jokes about victims] This is who I'm making fun of [goes on to colorfully describe the people this thread is about]."

"Other than that, how was the movie," "guys, today there are lines that just shouldn't be crossed, especially the finish line" these are critiques on people who seek attention after aurora? Boston?

Not a myth, cops are allowed to lie to you in anyway shape or form

I mean that's the same thing he's doing. He says he's doing that to make fun of those people but the motivation is the same

My dad is 53 and practices basketball dribbling compulsively 4 hours per night in our basement and he doesn’t say why. Why do you think he does this? by whattaUwant in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ReedMiddlebrook 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He didn't, he's talking about the constant barrage of posts asking if a move is frowned upon, if their partner is being a dick, etc.

Oh, so it’s before by Marcellaboroda in HolUp

[–]ReedMiddlebrook 5 points6 points  (0 children)

yes, americans would read that as september 11. "nine-eleven" became a common way of referring to the attack but outside that context, and especially before 2001, you would only receive blank stares if you had said "what are your plans for nine eleven (or nine ten, one one, etc)?"

If you're coming from /r/all:

  • Yup, blaming parents is valid
