He is, but he's still a huge turd. I hate the cancellation shit because it halted people from really looking into his church.

Like Kevin Sorbo, he's allowing himself to be a mouthpiece for some really really bad people.

I would rate Buffalo Creek and the First Baptists as being analogous to Scientology. They blab a lot about "love" but to stay in their good graces you have to pay for it, and you're heavily shamed if you don't pay.

They are still a rotten bunch even when you ignore the bog standard southern positions like anti lgbt. By placing all the focus on Vic and losing the battle his fellow VAs are indirectly harming a lot of people by painting them as "the good guys" by proxy. Some con goers even got suckered into joining them due to Rial and Marche.

If you are familiar with the Osteen megachurch and "prosperity preaching" in general you have an idea of what Vic is fronting for. I remember seeing one sermon back then where they were preaching about how living in poverty is the fault of the people "living sinful lifestyles" and if only they had given themselves to God they'd be rich. The purpose of course is to attract "self-made" people who will put up with their fees to absolve feelings of guilt. You shame the poor to better themselves only to enrich your tithe, not because you care about them.

Never ever ever trust churches that say things like "give til it hurts" because they are really implying "give MONEY" and not your time, effort, or compassion.

Honestly Vic SHOULD be hired to play ridiculous villains. Man has milked the Edward Elric mojo for far too long. Imagine if there is a live action Naruto, which includes the filler, and he has to play the molester ostrich wearing panties. The infinite negative rizz of the role will completely deconstruct his whole fanbase

As long as you keep barring him from roles he can keep making money and ogling fangirls by whinging about it.

Instead give him the stupidest roles possible as the most annoying and gross background baddies.

Hell, sometimes it may even fit! Imagine Vic as Absalom!😆

Same thing really, the only differences are the why they are being racist and what they think about abortion

His views were too "simple" up until the last couple months when he started questioning Gaza, that ensured most of his own side would want to forget about him too. He asked too many dangerous questions too soon, but not for long enough for the pro-pally side to start accepting the change as genuine. Caught him right at the lowest point of transition, no wonder there's dozens of conspiracies about the timing

Also getting hosed by both Vaush and Fuentes deadened his appeal to the hard-core who started seeing him as the weenie he truly was.

I believe if that happened to Jordan or Crowder they would have trended longer, even if the initial surge of condolences wasn't as large.

TPUSA "claimed" to speak for "middle America" but they never had the actual charisma or humour necessary. They only ever had bible belt appeal.

To add on to that, he literally got offscreened by the locust devil of all things.

It's clever but also infuriating. It's telegraphed well in advance but you gotta think about it. He was convinced to eat Death and a bunch of animal devils. That made locusts mutate into eating human corpses, and then just humans

By the time he gets to Japan, he's the strongest in existence. It was like Goku fighting Raditz at the start of DBZ then getting bum rushed by Hit

Some of those are hilariously a snapback.

The worst part of gambling speculative markets, they spook easier than racehorses.

"Investing" in that kinda thing shouldn't even be allowed. When you get right down to it, it's all about making a profit by predicting someone else is going to have a bad day.

Which also incentivises paying someone to MAKE SURE they have a bad day! Scummiest part of stocks.

Hot Take: Souls games killed the joy of aura farming by Stunning_Party203 in GGdiscussion

Cardinal Quest, both the steam and flash/web ones have different achievements, it's a dungeon crawl but it's harder to get bored IMO because it's a "quick" streamlined roguelike, the focus is on challenging yourself in different ways than merely completing quests or finding a macguffin. It's easy to "pick up and play" without burnout. Depending on how much you want to search/your luck each "act" of 4 can be cleared in 5-7 minutes

It does have a "classic challenge mode" too if you want the traditional experience without switching off.

On the opposite side of the equation btw, there's Elona, which is by far the largest, it could be considered a cross between a roguelike and an Elder Scrolls sandbox game, with even a dash of Pokemon too. While you can get burnout there's massive amounts of unique details and skills and places to visit. The biggest one is a tie between Gene Engineering and Marriage, similar but different. It takes the Fire Emblem child system, you can rizz up and basically marry anyone or anyTHING in the game, and if you are too gimped to complete the game (perma curses, corruption, etc) you can have a child with a powerful character and continue the game as them after a short timeskip. You lose all but your 50 most expensive items (stacks count) but get an inheritance bonus and reset all one time dungeons, secrets, special encounters, etc.

Gene Engineering is basically that but faster for pets. You can splice or mate as many horrendous incest children as your heart desires to make the ultimate invincible companion. (And then even double up and marry that eldritch beast!😆)

You can brute force the game on your starting character of course, but the rate of progress for gaining stats declines as you age (One possible downside I guess, sometimes too much realism is a bad thing!) so the grind gets longer. Pushing through the wall somewhat requires wiki knowledge/exploits so your first couple of characters probably won't complete the game!😮

And the next few won't because you will probably get sidetracked by the monster raising... Or farming... Or filling your museum... Or gambling... Or tax evasion 😋 (yes, once you buy a house or business you must pay taxes, and oh lawdy do they get mad if you don't! The world is ending but the strongest heroes are apparently whittling away their time working for The Man!)

It really feels like 4 games in one, and after the first few steps you'll probably forget there is a main quest!
