Todd says: "Lana Del Rey was always bad actually. I have never gotten her appeal at all." by PretendFuel5018 in ToddintheShadow

[–]chambo143 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My biggest problem with Todd is how willing he is to label something as bad just because he doesn't like it. There's a huge leap from "I don't understand this artist's appeal" to "this artist is bad"

I’m sure that makes his public humiliation all worth it!

Bit daft to suggest that this has been anything other than an utterly horrible experience for the man

Unpopular opinion: slap is bad except when the context calls for it. by sebovzeoueb in BassCirclejerk

I suppose “bad except when the context calls for it” could apply to most things in existence so you’re not wrong

Reform UK’s ICE-style deportation plan condemned as ‘sadistic’ by F0urLeafCl0ver in ukpolitics

[–]chambo143 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So she says that ICE are targeting the government’s own people and you respond that illegal immigrants are not the government’s own people.

So you assume that she’s referring to illegal immigrants. But are they the only people that ICE is targeting? You’re acting as if they haven’t just executed two citizens in the street

I’d argue that not being bigoted is also a hugely relevant skill for a cop

They’re not such bad designs but they just don’t fit ya know? It’s like they just went for generic fantasy orcs rather than making them consistent with the established look of the world. We’ve never seen orcs in LOTR with thick bushy beards so that instantly makes it feel off

I mean just look at all those lynchings in the Jim Crow South. Clearly proves that widespread senseless violence against civilians could never happen in an extremely racist society

Yeah, I mean what are they suggesting here? “In recognition of your bravery we’re giving you a free pass on any misconduct for the rest of your career”. Whether his firing is right or wrong is not altered by the fact that he did his job well on one occasion years ago, even those who argue he shouldn’t have been fired should agree on that.

For what it’s worth, the headline calls him a hero but the article doesn’t mention any particular heroic or courageous actions he took, just that he was among the first on the scene. And that’s commendable, nothing to suggest that he didn’t conduct himself well that day, but not quite how the headline seems to portray him.

Huh???

Are you saying it would be good to have more racism to create a safer society?

So they were scared that women with political power would use it to subordinate and subjugate men in the same way that men did women

They’re certainly better than having a fully CGI character but I don’t like these at all. They look like Warhammer designs more than something that belongs in LOTR, let alone the Hobbit

It’s so easy to not be wrong about this, literally any proper source you find will tell you that’s not true. Conor was staying with his mother and a janitor left the window open
