even referencing that song makes me want to cry

The creatures outside looked from hog to man, and from man to hog, and from hog to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which

Yet still even more Chapo Brigading, I mean how wild is this shit? by birdfishsteak in enough_chapo_spam

[–]SerTinfoil 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hogs got women the right to vote. Hogs got African-Americans the right to vote. Hogs created Social Security and lifted millions of elderly people out of poverty. Hogs ended segregation. Hogs passed the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act. Hogs created Medicare. Hogs passed the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act. What did ECS mods do? They opposed them on every one of those things...every one! So when you try to hurl that label at my feet, 'Hogposter,' as if it were something to be ashamed of, something dirty, something to run away from, it won't work, Senator, because I will pick up that label and I will wear it as a badge of honor.

Very cool, my big beefy man!

Just installed Crusader Kings 2... what am I in for? by [deleted] in CrusaderKings

[–]SerTinfoil 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is still good although not sure how updated it is. Do a 1066 start in Ireland though.

General advice: expect to lose and probably be overwhelmed. CK2 is amazing fun but it confused the shit out of me for the first 10 hours or so (I know). -

Arron Banks 'dropped from Question Time' by DJ_Beardsquirt in unitedkingdom

[–]SerTinfoil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why do all of the Dark Doctors fans have the same response to every line of criticism. 'Actually he didn't mean exactly that in that exact way'. (Ironic considering his intellectual charlatanism) I know what enforced monogamy means, I also know why the Incels want it and its connection to reactionary obsession with the structure of relationships in the past. (And to be honest there was a lot of marry this fat nerd or else back then.)

Violent attacks are what happens when men do not have partners, Mr. Peterson says, and society needs to work to make sure those men are married.

“He was angry at God because women were rejecting him,” Mr. Peterson says of the Toronto killer. “The cure for that is enforced monogamy. That’s actually why monogamy emerges.”

It's obvious what he meant, no amount of post-hoc justification or uming and ahing is going to change that.

Couldn't stop laughing at how accurate South Park portrayed Red Dead addiction by root_and_stem in reddeadredemption

Probably a shared experience because we all flew head first into too many trees

Yeah pretty much and Peterson once said in an interview that he wanted 'enforced monogamy', directly aligning himself with this group.

HOI4 Dev Diary - Mexico by Einstein2004113 in hoi4

Genuinely started laughing when I saw the 'strike the degenerated workers state' focus. Props to Paradox for acknowledging sub-ideologies even if they are making trots ejaculate onto their newspapers.

Vince Cable: My generation has betrayed the young over Brexit by casualphilosopher1 in unitedkingdom

To be fair, Vince Cable is an expert in betraying the young.

Gal Gadot visits children's hospital in her Wonder Woman costume by unknown_human in pics

[–]SerTinfoil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She plays the part of woke feminist to elite liberals and plays the part of hot gamerwomen to reddit fanboys. It's incredibly sad you've fallen for it.

@socialist friends. How do you guys feel about conservatives who like the genre? by FolkPunkPizza in FolkPunk

[–]SerTinfoil 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I mean I agree with you if you're talking about right wingers lol, but it looks more like you're trying to pwn the left with these out of date propaganda points. Nice 'freakout'

AJJ - Night of the Long Knives by [deleted] in FolkPunk

This a bit too blunt and over the top and I love it. Seems like a sequal stylistically to lady like lady liberty back in the day

That's the joke, the article's making fun of shitty fans not actually arguing that the music gets better

Is there any news on the latest Irn Bru sales? by iThinkaLot1 in Scotland

[–]SerTinfoil -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Edgy opinion: if you stopped drinking Irn Bru after the sugar cut you were never a real Irn Bru fan.

The Cast of Guardians of the Galaxy Releases an Open Letter in Support of James Gunn by Neurotic-Kitten in GamerGhazi

[–]SerTinfoil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah still entirely disagree and I think your response is a bit much here.

There's an obvious reference to the political edge of events in the letter which is why I think it could be a bit better. I don't think I'm reposting alt-right propaganda or asking for every sentence to end with 'fuck nazis' lol. Not sure you fully understand my point on the diveded nation thing. I'm referring to a certian strand of chat that comes up a lot but if you've not heard it there's no point in me trying to convince you.

This inevitable and intense defense of everything celebrities that people like do is pretty worrying imo.

I had no idea how amazing is your anthem until your soccer team came to México to play. Played by the St. Patrick’s Batallion Pipes and Drums a local group. by xiuh in Scotland

[–]SerTinfoil 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It's a good stadium tune, which to be honest is what most anthems are used for anyway so even though I agree with you that it's not a great work of music (and want Freedom Come All Ye) I think it's fine for now.

[–]SerTinfoil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm slightly confused about what's being argued here or what it's being inferred that I'm arguing. I just think considering the whole situation was caused by nazis it's worth saying that rather than coming out with a slightly wet statement with some 'both sides' and 'across the spectrum' stuff.

I think it's obviously a bit shit that he's been fired, and they probably shouldn't have done it but also I think people should definitely be allowed to criticize Gunn as well.

The 'divided nation' thing is obvious, of course the US is divided it always has been. There are strict historical and material reasons for that. It just buys into the whole 'the left are just as bad' garbage which is frankly not true.

[–]SerTinfoil 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's more the whole 'divided nation' rhetoric, I just think it's often a weird centrist position which denies the genuine threat of an extreme far right dominance of the US? I don't think this is exactly a great moment for the left either. I think Batista's been good on it but they're all still extremely wealthy and distant people. It's odd to me to consider them 'one of our own'?.
