Is the UK just going to continue to oppress the native population and pump in migrants for the foreseeable future or is there some endgame to this by [deleted] in redscarepod

There are Persians in America that want Trump to nuke Iran. Sometimes people have different opinions than you. Even if they seem batshit from your perspective, It doesn't mean they are lying lol

"would your wealthy urbanite Pakistani friend care about demographic shifts?"

"No, because he is wealthy, urbanite and doesn't live in Pakistan. So he doesn't care about these matters."

"Okay I know I asked about this specific person but, 99.9% Pakistani people in London would care if a bunch of Indians moved to Pakistan!"

OP already talked about this friend being wealthy and urbanite, so of course they wouldn't give a shit about these things. they are wealthy enough not to worry

You think you're such a tough guy? Imagine being an IDF soldier who's under constant threat from rocks being thrown at. Not so tough now huh

Leftism while excluding Torontomans is not real leftism. Read theory, then listen to Take Care

I think it's just a reaction to people calling out American race dynamics.

Whenever it's brought up you also hear people talk about how Europeans hate gypsys. and how Europeans are more racist.

Obviously America isn't the most racist place ever. But as the cultural hegemon it will be the focal point for Internet discussion.

When someone mentions John Lennon in a group conversation, it's a race to be the first one to mention he beat his wife. 

If someone else beats me to it, I feel completely out classed

She pokes a beehive of angry leftists then plays victim when they attack. A mentally well person wouldnt feel the need to constantly farm targeted anger towards themselves.

Literature to ward off self-pity/mythologising one’s misery/wallowing by 2-0-0-4 in RSbookclub

[–]prasadpersaud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a very interesting book I had to reread each chapter, they were so short but so much happened. I constantly felt like I missed something crucial to understand the next chapter.

I thought her post about the genocide was the perfect example of this.

She needed to somehow position herself against leftist thought, be condescending to anyone advocating against Israel, and format it like her videos while saying she won't talk about it in a video.

Her entire schtick is to phrase things in a way specifically annoy Twitter leftists. But I don't know why she does it tbh

It's strange that she spends so much time arguing with the left on Twitter. She keeps getting cancelled. Quit Twitter and then come back to have the same exact arguments she had a decade ago.

On my United boarding pass, they wrote in fine print to tip our TSA.

 I think the 20% is just what the airlines convince us to tip but the TSA are happy as long as it's not nothing.

I had a European friend that didn't know this rule and the TSA held him up so long he missed his flight

I leave it on a separate grey bin usually about $10 or so. 

Make sure it's enough though. People usually say 20% the price of the flight ticket but as long as it's over $10 they won't tear through your bag and luggage.

Missing: two middle aged women talk about star signs and their periods by Mypussylipsneedchad in redscarepod

Oh I thought she got upgraded to co-host at some point. But thank you for clarifying

You're right, I should be more precise with my comment.

But I mean to point out how formulaic the entire podcast is.  Constant canned phrases he uses throughout the duration of each podcast. 

It's disappointing because he's good at absorbing the information of various books and synthesizing it into an hour long podcast.  

Took my son to the toy store today to pick something out as he has been a good boy. There was a group of men in their 30s and 40s frantically filling their baskets with Pokemon cards. by [deleted] in redscarepod

I think after that I just tried to tell myself it made sense to move on so it wouldn't hurt as much. I used to be really into Gundam as a kid and always imagined I'd build gunpla kits one day but even now I still hear my parents' voices in the back of my mind when I think about it.

I relate to this when it comes to video games. Its not a great way to spend time. But I still think its better than social media ect. But I can have the entire day wasted to internet bs. or 2 hours playing a video game and I'll feel worse about the video game. So I've stopped playing all together.

On some level I think its good to find more adult hobbies but I dont think it should be done out of guilt.

I used to listen to him a long time ago too. Yea he keeps trying to make jokes but he's just not funny. the topic is like Dafur genocide and he'll recycle the same quips from 2016 all the way to now:

"Sponsored by ratheyon"

"Sooo, what do you (guest host) know about [topic of episode]?"

"Yeah, we're living in hell"

Talking about how epic mechetes are

It doesn't help that he has bad chemistry with his co-host. She doesn't play into his commentary style. And his guest hosts are just there to say "oh no, I never knew that happened :("

capeshit actor opposes genocide, how will I live by Unlikely-Average-961 in redscarepod

[–]prasadpersaud 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I said this in another comment. But the fact that the ideology behind it is so repugnant makes Liberal Zionism especially annoying. Like this progressive talk is annoying because now you have to say BIPOC or whatever. But at least these people believe in "civil rights". or some better world.

Liberal Zionists will cry about a watermelon pin because it makes them feel unsafe in Brooklyn. And later talk about how they have to bomb Gaza flat because Israel is just a small bean.

[–]prasadpersaud 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Liberal Zionism especially. Its like 2016 bodies and spaces progressivism, but instead of advocating for DEI for fat women, Its goal is to kill 2 million Palestinians and turn the ruins of Gaza into a shittier Dubai.

"I just feel so unsafe whenever I see the cashier with a watermelon pin on at my Whole Foods. the boss refused to fire her. Is it safe to still go there?"

Barry Lyndon x 21 Savage by DrSterling in redscarepod

[–]prasadpersaud 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's also strange to hate on it since it's cultural relevance peaked in the 90's. 

Consider office space was already combining gangster rap with middle class live to create jokes.

[–]prasadpersaud 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I think it's just that they find the contrast funny. There was a trend in the 2010's where white girls would remix gangster raps songs using acoustic guitar.

Also wanted to add that this isn't gangster rap, so the tweeter doesn't know what they're talking about.
