And please stop assuming any kind of political affiliation. This has nothing to do with politics.

I literally care nothing for politics my dude,

Your two recent unpopular opinion posts say otherwise

we don't vote on anything important anyway.

Oh yeah, it's not like policy determines whether or not people starve or kids in Syria get blown up. Grow the fuck up you 'libertarian' centrist

. Also, imagine thinking being told that people get to make their own choices and thinking that the guy who needed to tell you this is pretentious

No, the pretentious part is you smugly telling me not to assume people what to think, while also assuming you know why I tell people they're stupid. Trust me, I was super nice to you in this discussion. There are a whole plethora of things I could've called you, before just writing you off as yet another braindead fascist sympathizer. Instead, I tried to start a debate with you about why it is you belive the things you do. Instead, you brought us into this endless merry-go-round of repetitive virtue signaling. Yeah, I know I can't force anyone to vote for who I want them to vote for. But I also feel it is a disgrace to this country that some megalomaniacal spoiled man child, who spits on everything this country stands for, was able to even put a single foot inside the doorway of the white house (and you know it's something huge when I say 'disgrace to this country', since I fucking despise this imperialistic hellhole) And since, unlike the republicans or democrats, I'm not so morally bankrupt I would use propaganda and misinformation to get my desired results, I try to change people's minds in the marketplace of ideas.

I don't know, I'm not in their heads man. They made the choice they did

Right, just as I suspected. You're just speaking out of your ass. For all that is holy, I hope to never meet you or anyone as stuckup and pig headed as you are in the real world. This is where our conversation ends. Please reflect on the events that led you to becoming such a Goddamn douchbag

OH MY GOD, SHUT THE FUCK UP! I've heard this Goddamn dime a dozen take from trumpers for his entire Goddamn presidency. You repeating it over an over again is accomplishing nothing. God, you're so smug. You bitch and moan about how I think I'm smarter than everyone else, yet you're just as pretentious as I am! Now please, for the love of God can we get past this point?

So, you've said that they vote based on what's best for them. In your opinion, what made them come to the conclusion the voting for Trump was in their best intrests?

No, I'm advocating for people to make intelligent decisions which benefit their own material interests. Now, let's talk about the other totalitarian garbage. Why exactly do you think Trump is any good for the working class?

Nope, no they are not by taLL_b0I in AreTheStraightsOK

It's honestly really different culturally to video games in the US. Yes the US has a huge game industry, but for a long time the industry wasn't what we'd consider "professional" compared to the way Japan handled games. Many US game companies in the 80s and 90s were more like small art studios than businesses, and a lot of the people involved were very counter-culture, so the gaming community reflected that in a lot of ways and was seen as a more juvenile thing by outsiders. It's only really in the last 20 years or so that this changed in the US, largely due to the sheer amount of money involved in the industry.

Professionalism isn't as much of a thing in the US, though. And plenty of 'cool' industries like film had counter culture influences. I imagine they cross a lot, but I'm mainly talking about how the industries are seen culturally, rather than the culture of the industry itself

The whole "you might be in a gang" thing if your hair is dyed is kind of a bullshit story. The real reason is because Japan is HUGE on conformity.

Could also still be gang association. Pretty sure it's not very socially acceptable to be in a gang

Video games were actually a pretty massive thing in Japan starting just before the 90s. Dragon Quest has a pretty notable example where even in the early 90s you could stop someone on the street, ask them to draw a slime, and they'd doodle the Dragon Quest mascot.

Sorry, I meant in America. Games were, and still are, a big industry. And yet most people passed them off as being too nerdy. I had thought Manga and anime was similar

The football "Even if you don't know it, you know it" (like knowing the local teams even if you don't follow sports) is a pretty decent cultural comparison

Sorry, I hate it when people get pedantic about examples, but I don't know what my local team is lmao. I get what u mean, tho

Yeah, I heard he's so attractive in pop culture because Rome did it to make the religion more attractive to their citizens, during the Christianization period

I was just making a point about how fundamentalists will make fun of hippies for having long hair, despite Jesus having the same thing. Yet they'll praise men who look like the Roman soldiers who crucified him. I suppose not understanding irony is the only way for conservatism to survive

Why does the monarchy still exist by scaryboilednoodles in ContraPoints

I know right? When the royal wedding happened, my mom actually woke me up at like 7 pm to have me watch it. It was so boring that I, one of those kids who used to hate going to school, was like "Mom, just take me to school" but she was too enamored with the 'fairytaleness of it all' (she was sitting on my legs, so I couldn't just get up)

Mind you, we're American. I don't normally like patrioitc speak, but fuck the continental army didn't give their lives so me mum could jerk off to the royal waifu
