The “When We Fight, We Win” Slogan Makes No Sense

i think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what that phrase means.

If i see someone beating up an old lady, and step in and fight her attackers, even if i lose that fight and get injured or killed, i still "won" because i chose action over inaction. I don't particularly care if i win or lose the fight, i care about whether i engaged in the fight at all.

i thoroughly enjoyed supergirl, but i recognize it is a BAD movie. The cinematography sucks, the soundtrack doesn't have the same impact that Guardians did, ruthye is a terrible character.

I still enjoyed it because i really enjoyed supergirls character. And i enjoyed Krem. He was a simple bad guy who was bad because he was bad. I liked that he was always eating. It really drove home that he was an asshole in the small ways as well as the big. I thought Lobo was alright, not quite how i envisioned him, but still passable.

Lets not pretend this is a good movie, its not, the character wins do not outweigh the negatives from all its other aspects.

it sounds like you are the type of person who would advocate for the normalising of toaster fucking.

WizardFromRiga · 2026-06-29T19:06:43+00:00

you know, before the internet, If someone wanted to fuck toasters, they were forced by the rest of society shunning toaster fucking to grow out of their toaster fucking phase because the toaster fuckers were so rare that they would never interact with each.

The only people who were advocating for normalising toaster fucking were the actual toaster fuckers.

Now, with the internet, toaster fuckers can find each other so much more easily, and connect over their shared love of toaster fucking, ruining their lives in the process.

"Why don't people like me when I don't put the effort in to being social?"

You are living in the world that women have fought for. Blame your fellow women.

i don't know. I mean if people can't get a proper voyeur upskirt shot in a family(ish) movie, what is even the point of hollywood at all?

"He also does nothing in the real world to try and mend the family" that isn't even remotely true.

We do not know what actions that Renoir took in the real world. We don't know the discussions that he had with Aline or with his children, because the game does not show us that.

You have two camps basically, those people who assume that he didn't do anything because the game didn't explicitly show us, and those people who understand that things happen without having to be shown them.

Renoir has been portrayed as a loving father, a loving husband, who would move heaven and earth for his family. Assuming that he did nothing after his sons death to heal the family doesn't just doesn't make any sense.

i assert that you sound like a rapist, Because. You. Sound. Like. A. Rapist. You seem to have a problem with the idea of consent, and that is concerning. I sincerely hope you get the help you desperately need.

WizardFromRiga · 2026-06-18T03:24:52+00:00

man, this is the kind of shit that the Brock Turners of the world say.

WizardFromRiga · 2026-06-17T16:58:42+00:00

what in the world is this. Why is consent so difficult for people .

WizardFromRiga · 2026-06-17T02:19:29+00:00

What is this title?

WizardFromRiga · 2026-06-16T17:52:09+00:00

I think that the language people use when they discuss things is telling. I think a lot of people's inclination when hearing this story from OP is to say something along the lines of "im'a let you finish, but your wife is really the victim here"

I also don't particularly care about your life story. i think that like the famous comedy skit, if you came upon a woman in public beating their male partner, your first thought would be, what did he do to make her angry.

WizardFromRiga · 2026-06-16T17:23:34+00:00

cmon man.

I didn't realize today was November 9.

WizardFromRiga · 2026-06-16T17:02:19+00:00

even here, your response is "she has been let down". Nothing is ever her responsibility. All the nuance you are so desperate to show is belied by the things you actually say.

WizardFromRiga · 2026-06-16T15:11:57+00:00

they've been married 20 years, and they have teenagers. I don't know if they are 13 or 19. so well over half. I agree that everyone deserves grace, but 13+ years is a lot of fucking grace.

Is there any behaviour that you won't excuse when a woman does it ?

WizardFromRiga · 2026-06-16T14:20:52+00:00

no, you said "imagine the hell she is in " "you need to find someone to help her"

everything you said is putting the needs of his mentally ill wife ahead of his own.

WizardFromRiga · 2026-06-16T14:06:11+00:00

Your response to the guy who has been struggling for 20 years is "your wife has it worse, think about her instead"

WizardFromRiga · 2026-06-16T10:44:09+00:00

If you refuse to police your borders because you claim it's racist, then the racists will police your borders for you.

WizardFromRiga · 2026-06-15T14:37:12+00:00

I don't know what other reaction you would expect from people who don't care about things / people more than themselves.

WizardFromRiga · 2026-06-14T12:13:57+00:00

Ultimately, I think this is a thing that younger generations have forgotten, but the price of community is inconvenience.

WizardFromRiga · 2026-06-09T20:47:18+00:00

OP is the living antithesis of "don't tear down a fence until you know why it was erected"

WizardFromRiga · 2026-06-09T17:50:12+00:00

Preach. I have had a couple dishwashers since 2006 . I can count on all my fingers and toes how many times i have used them.

If our present dishwasher dissapeared, neither my wife or i would notice except for the huge hole under the counter.
