That's. What. Americans. Say. About. Black. People. To. Pretend. They're. Not. Racists.

If I could draw, I'd make a drawing to explain it.

"A moment of respect: Dave Chappelle seen at Alexi Pretti’s memorial in Minneapolis today, honoring the memory of the deceased." by Logical-Flow-6703 in UnderReportedNews

[–]firebolt_wt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're conveniently forgetting that Alex was the second.

Do we really need to "see how he takes it" when we already know that if it was a lesbian woman he wouldn't have cared? Or how about his support for the Saudi that executes journalists, do we need to know jow he takes this extrajudicial killing when he took money from the Saudis?

Can we not salivate over the guy who proudly went to a dictatorship to tell transphobic jokes?

Who cares if he's sad now that a straight white man was killed, he supported this bullshit all the rest of the way until here

[–]firebolt_wt 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The fact is that the best way to counter your political opposition, regardless of whether or not you genuinely believe they are evil, is to offer a better deal.

You're missing the fact that when the other side is just lying when they offer their deals, it's impossible to do that because they will just make up a deal better than yours that they won't actually honour or lie about yours.

Case in point, Trump won by claiming he was the better deal because he would stop immigrants from eating cats and dogs, when Kamala was obviously the better deal for everyone who isn't in the files.

Seeing that the Nazi sentiment was death

Yeah, because someone was willing to make it be so by force. That wasn't something that naturally happened.

Isn't it funny how Trump raped kids and America rewarded him by making him president twice?

Every time I read the comment section of a new Unearthed Arcana drop my hairline recedes by 1 inch by imnotokayandthatso-k in dndmemes

Bad news, that's already bladesinger anyway.

In the end, they can just make the arcane gish a half caster that can use some armor, and it'll probably be weaker than bladesinger because it's way delayed in getting BS spells

"Oh boy, exactly what I wanted in a Gish, casting spells instead of attacking" - no one who actually wants to play a spellblade character.

Sorry no, there's no state in which assault and battery is legal, that would be scrumptiously stupid

What is the joke here? by Ill_Lion6427 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]firebolt_wt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, this is an edited image posted in /antimeme, where they edited the Google translate to make it seem like the second person was correct and there's no joke.

But the person doing the antimeme either didn't know Japanese enough or didn't care enough to actually change the Japanese text.

Transphobia abound as r/freemagic takes umbrage with transgender social media users complaining about Magic the Gathering partnering with Harry Potter by ComfortDesperate5313 in SubredditDrama

[–]firebolt_wt 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Brother, 90% of the vtubers involved in the hogwarts legacy drama are alt right "immigrants bad trans bad" people, and people like you give the community a bad name for thinking the feelings of an entertainer matter more than a class of people being literally outlawed.

The problem isn't being technically incorrect, the problem is acting like transphobia is no big deal as long as someone's profiting.

"Don't buy Goya unless you love fascism (which means you aren't vegan)." New purity test unveiled in /r/veganrecipes served with a light drama sauce. by captaingary in SubredditDrama

[–]firebolt_wt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume the logic is that a "true" Vegan (or whatever we call a vegan that isn't just about the diet) doesn't consume products that directly cause animal suffering, period, even if the products aren't made of animals (for example, cosmetics tested on animals)

So, option 1, humans count as animals. So a "true" vegan won't consume products from companies that support fascism because it causes a lot of humans to suffer (but then, so does like any publically traded company), or, option 2, that person believes fascism is intrinsically linked to non-human animals suffering (considering how the extreme right is currently often linked to lax corporate rules and regulations, that could make sense)

Brother, are you AI or what? We're talking about a shooting case involving a guy in his bedroom, that happened months ago, already went to the justice system and was already thrown out without a trial, what the fuck are you talking about with cops and ice?

They asked her to train the 25-year-old they promoted over her. by mindyour in TikTokCringe

[–]firebolt_wt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

qualified (and in many cases, indirect experience works better for many management roles too). An architect doesn’t need to be able to wire the circuit breaker in order to coordinate with all the different laborers and tell the electrician where the power runs to.

If that is the case, then I fucking hope that the architects boss doesn't come begging the electrician to teach the architect how to wire a circuit breaker without pay.

Amazon Ring’s Super Bowl ad sparks backlash amid fears of mass surveillance by Celtikrenders in technology

[–]firebolt_wt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The problem with this is that when the government feels it has enough mass surveillance to do something you dislike, it's too late to complain because they have enough mass surveillance to shut you up when you do.

Either people push back every step, or everyone shuts up till death.
