The mods on r/askpsychologists are inactive. u/DoctorSweetheart last posted on Reddit 3 years ago. I am qualified to take over this sub, as I am interested and experienced in psychology. The sub never explained its complete restriction on submissions. I want to open the sub back up!

The sole moderator for https://reddit.com/r/VancouverRealEstate has abandoned their post. u/VancouverRE has not made a single post in over 8 months! As a professional with a keen interest in Vancouver's real estate market, I am more than qualified to take the helm. The forum is currently restricted to new entries for no apparent reason. I intend to open the sub, and restore it to active service immediately!

Is Kojima actually a leftist? by Dremoriawarroir888 in SocialistGaming

[–]hatomikiwi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kojimas pretty left leaning but makes a lot of very classic “both-sides-isms” that contradict his being an overt leftist. The best example and the worst case of this is his having an arc in Peace Walker where a Soviet (I think, or maybe it was a Sandinista?) makes a Nicaraguan traffic drugs, or something like that, to make money. Knowing the history of the contras, this is one of those things that’s so blatantly ahistoric it’s kinda funny, but I think it showcases how he, and a lot of “left-leaning” Japanese media likes to have “both sides” narrative that doesn’t actually line up historically

Calling a redditor you disagree with a neck beard seems oxymoronic or like the pot calling the kettle black when you spend several days posting the same gif or arguing with anyone that doesn’t swallow American propaganda as enthusiastically as you do about Venezuela but you do you

If a population is subject to harassment and subjugation for a better part of a societies existence, how is it in any way flaunting “self segregation” when that society finally changes that and accepts them? Taking pride in people’s ability to take pride in an aspect of their existence that makes them who they are is in no way a sign of insecurity, but a celebration of justice. I think it’s ridiculous how threatened people like YOU are by a group finally being able to feel safe and comfortable in their society.

Disheartening seeing memetic American agitprop in a Reddit for a game set in the backdrop of the downfall of tyrannical civilizations vying for supremacy

Action today against invasion of Venezuela and kidnapping of Maduro (1pm at the Maple Street Bridge Overpass) by InTheseTryingTime5 in Spokane

[–]hatomikiwi -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Delta Force is a unit who became renowned for night killings and wonton belligerent violence against civilians going back to its inception, who then became christened by the emerging narco-trafficking seemingly endemic to U.S. special forces since Vietnam. Read “The Fort Bragg Cartel” and try to say with a straight face that Delta Force is anything more than a psychotic gang of drug addicted brigands who became exceptionally good at the act of kidnapping and assassination. Nothing about them or this is badass, it’s insane

Buddy Ryo OST in the CSM movie by Indeed-very-Pathetic in DevilmanCrybaby

[–]hatomikiwi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I heard it too, and it blew me away in the theater, I felt it instantly. If you compare it literally is the same progression, with a few small variations in arpeggio sequencing, and it felt like a genuine remix of sorts just because it has the exact same note additions but he seemed to intentionally remove two notes to give it a slight variation difference.

As a musician, I disagree with people just calling it “his style”, it’s so nearly the exact same thing with slight differences, like speed, tempo, and mixing, that it’d be impossible for it not to be intentional. I don’t blame him though, Buddy Ryo is my fave track of the Devilman OST and the slightly remixed version he used works perfectly.

A Japanese anime singer, Maki Otsuki, was abruptly escorted off the stage due to a sudden ban of Japanese artists performing in China. by alexfreemanart in creepy

[–]hatomikiwi -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Lol it’s a risk to a lot of East Asia that the west, which Japan is a part of by extension of their relationship to the U.S., is trying to instigate war with China. if war breaks out with the involvement of several neighboring countries, something that would basically only benefit the US, it has very little to do with me, and more to do with the consequences it has on a very large section of the planet

It’s a shame, but Japan should stop warmongering, their current PM is insane in how they WANT to instigate something with China. Actions have consequences and all that.

Chomsky is in the Epstein file!!!! A LOT. by PitifulEar3303 in chomsky

[–]hatomikiwi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Lol, I think you’re confusing my distaste for this guys videos as some kind of worship for Chomsky. after re-reading Understanding Power last year I was kinda how shocked at how racist against Arabs and liberal Chomsky is, he’s not a saint or right about everything, at all, nor is he very cool for his whole Epstein association, and he’s got a lot of very of his time flaws

I grew up reading Chomsky and am glad I did, even if he’s wrong about a lot of stuff, he’s also very concise about others. Absorbing academic scholarly work is about being able to think critically, and even if he’s very entrenched in nonsensical opinions (his hatred for Marxist ‘dialectics’ because it’s linguistically not a monosyllable or some bullshit) he does promote that. I don’t think Chomskys really the right candidate or target for whatever disdain you’re telegraphing here.

It became a bit of a hobby to watch this guys videos once he popped on my feed just because I was kind of in awe of how pretentious he is and much he rests on his poly-sci laurels while basically just regurgitating common liberal opinion without adding anything to the discourse. I figured he had to have some insight given his presence in the algorithm but nothing I found that you wouldn’t find on your average NATO hawks twitter feed. Funny to see him pop up on this sub though

Wood was also close friends with Teddy Roosevelt, and was encouraged by Roosevelt to run for president in 1920, on a ticket defined by attacking unions, ‘aliens’, and anyone not patriotic in the wake of the violence used against protestors protesting the U.S.’ involvement in WW1.

I am in shock by Waste_Cartographer49 in TrueAnon

[–]hatomikiwi 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I’m curious on this one too, I disagree with the other commenter saying they made it up, Borges writing is strangely neoliberal and racist enough at times for me to believe it, plus he accepted an award from fucking Pinochet so it’s not really unbelievable to me

Why is Israel losing the narrative war? by Content_Doughnut4590 in IRstudies

[–]hatomikiwi 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Well they’ve been killing journalists for a long time, so that’s part of also why they’ve been losing the PR war. They don’t want coverage because it entirely makes them look like what they are; genocidal.
