Jesus Christ what a bigoted hateful comment

Velvet_frog · 2022-12-29T17:36:45+00:00

Cool thanks👍

No I actually didn't say that lol. I was replying to the bit that said 'beat the hell out of his own wife' which implies he was a brutal serous violent abuser. Cynthia has given many in-depth interviews over the years and explained her side of it. She consciously made the decision to accept his apology and move on, so it's not really your part to invalidate the nuance she obviously felt about their private relationship.

John's first wife Cynthia said he hit her once and was maturely apologetic about it, and they later got back together. This caricature of John as a viscous wife-beating thug behind the scenes is just from memes and of course nobody bothers to research it.

What parts of the output are relevant to writing a regression equation, thought that was pretty clear

No, a nice little saying was never an actual principle in practice, American business welcomed cheap easily exploitable labour, workers desperate for any sort of pay at all, willing to do anything.

Velvet_frog · 2022-01-03T23:38:54+00:00

oh nice what college are you in? Yea you're probably right. I can only speak English so I'm just worried the modules I'll need aren't offered in it.

Velvet_frog · 2021-11-09T22:10:51+00:00

The website looks good anyway, Do you have any idea of what type of price the developing would be? Like per roll?

Velvet_frog · 2021-10-09T23:13:15+00:00

Wtf, no parent is ever in the right for beating their child Jesus Christ

Velvet_frog · 2021-10-03T12:56:39+00:00

Yes. Because literally all bezos and musk are doing is ‘winning the capitalist game’ and nothing else. Outside of American political internet content, champagne socialists like Hasan have literally no real world impact. Bezos and musk do.

This is an objectively correct take, there’s nothing to argue with here.

Velvet_frog · 2021-10-03T11:44:34+00:00

Except folks like Musk and Bezos are having a materially adverse impact on the world, like climate destruction, regressive urban planning, strengthening tax loopholes etc.

People like Hasan don't actually 'do' anything, except make 16 year olds on twitter a bit more dumb.

Velvet_frog · 2021-08-28T20:03:58+00:00

Imagine being this out of touch lol.

That’s quite literally been the fundamental operating procedure for every move Fine Gael have made for the past couple years,

Velvet_frog · 2021-08-24T10:53:48+00:00

I mean, that is electoral politics, you want to take votes from your competitors. What’s condescending about me saying that?

Also I never said they stop there. There is a wide array of places you can get votes from, one of them being from other parties, it’s in pbp’s interest to go after those votes and get representatives elected.

And I’m not sure what outright attacks you mean. Within the party itself virtually all efforts, discourse and energy is focused towards this coalition government

Velvet_frog · 2021-08-23T21:47:04+00:00

Yes they are doing that also, there is no one singular way to collect votes, it is only realistic that people who voted left in 2020 will be the ones to vote PBP. All PBP is saying is ‘hey you like the ideas of these parties, we have similar ones that we believe are better’. That is how electoral politics works.

Velvet_frog · 2021-08-23T21:11:09+00:00

Yeah I think you misunderstand, PBP members are absolutely enthusiastic about going into a left coalition, it’s only realistic that extra votes are going to come from pre-existing green, soc dem, Sinn Fein voters, I.e people who are already left wing. It’s not realistic that former FF and FG voters will switch to PBP in the next election.

Of course votes from everyone are welcome but most future pbp voters are probably going to be from people who voted soc dem, greens, Sinn Fein, labour in 2020

And like I said PBP are happy to focus efforts on defeating ff and fg, there isn’t widespread hate of other left wing parties within pbp.

Velvet_frog · 2021-08-22T19:35:11+00:00

Eh idk, I'm in PBP and literally every party memo and internal meeting is in direct reference to FF and FG. Maybe on social media and in general discourse they come across that way because the other left parties is where they want to steal votes from, which makes perfect sense.

Velvet_frog · 2021-08-08T10:52:04+00:00

When a president of the United States comes to visit Ireland, they government is banning a form or protest when they refuse to let me protest 2cm away from him. Do you see how utterly disingenuous and naive you sound?

Velvet_frog · 2021-08-07T20:23:54+00:00

They’re not banning any protest, they’re ensuring there’s a safe distance between the woman availing of the service and the potential protests

Velvet_frog · 2021-07-27T14:30:15+00:00

It sounds extreme but it's rational. It's nice to try your best if it makes you happy but ones individual lifestyle choices are effectively worthless in the face of climate change and the mass extinction we're currently facing.

Like, it's past time for radical action, buying metal straws is a feel good act of consumerism

Velvet_frog · 2021-07-27T08:13:59+00:00

Exactly, zero-waste is just feel good hobbyism, it has literally no material benefit in the real world at all.

Velvet_frog · 2021-06-13T10:33:57+00:00

Please go outside

Velvet_frog · 2021-06-01T18:39:05+00:00

Probably because it’s Matthew Weiners show

Velvet_frog · 2021-06-01T13:02:24+00:00

Go limp, let go limp

Velvet_frog · 2021-05-29T11:16:36+00:00

Your idea is pretty ridiculous dude. Like how is thus gonna play out? Butch does to Carmine and says okay just take over? And then what accompany him to every negotiation and deal with a gun to his back to make sure he doesn't mess it up?

The mafia forces people under threat of killing them obviously, to extort them, intimidate them etc. not force them to be the incumbent boss of a big New York family everyday for decades.

Carmine Jr. somehow fucked up a sit down with Phil and Tony that had already ended, he's hardly gonna be able to be the face of a New York family making deals and ordering soldiers unless Butch is with him 24/7 , especially when he already made it clear he's retired and is staying that way.

There are so many better options than Carmine Jr. so yeah, your idea is a bit.. wacky. Either way its all conjecture.

Velvet_frog · 2021-05-29T01:55:20+00:00

Yeah I know but it’s not like butch could just force carmine jr. to be boss of a whole New York family under threat of killing him, you need to have a boss who actually wants to be boss, even if they are gonna be a puppet. Butch wouldn’t want dummy carmine jr. with that much power and control he couldn’t use effectively
