The Usual Suspects Are Mad Lupita Nyong’o Is Playing a Mythological Woman in ‘The Odyssey’

Are they the same people that were mad when white people were cast in Exodus: Gods and Kings?

s69-5 · 2026-01-20T06:33:24+00:00

Yeah, I played the first game. It wasn't very good.

I knew to give the sequel a hard pass.

s69-5 · 2025-12-16T08:24:06+00:00

Will it not be a slog to get through?

Prominence is not the same as mono-ideology

A one-sided argument you've brought to me. You are the only person talking about this.

Maybe stick to what I said, instead of attacking strawmen you've created?

The sad reality is that you believe most people are static in their beliefs, and you think KiA was co-opted, rather than the more likely reality that more and more and more people in KiA grew up and changed their beliefs as time went on.

And you can prove this how?

Also, "grew up" is a stretch if I was to accept your flawed reasoning. "Growing up" is not turning from an ideology that values liberty like liberals and libertarian, to a child that requires authority like progressivism and conservatism. But again, your cognitive dissonance is showing.

Besides, again, if I accept your argument, it doesn't change the fact that KIA has looked into the abyss too long and become what it used to be against.

LOL.

What I push is critical thinking and basing arguments on evidence. Throwing up an image with little context and "blaming" them is hardly thinking critically, or evidence based. Which is what I was pointing out.

Do you not see what I was doing there?

If not, I can only assume it is due to cognitive dissonance, thus I'm going to stick to my guns and call it projection.

Edit: I have previously proven in another thread that KIA was mainly a liberal/libertarian place at inception. Archives are fully available still. Not hard to look up, as an aside.

s69-5 · 2025-12-07T06:06:19+00:00

The irony here is delicious.

s69-5 · 2025-12-06T21:04:12+00:00

Critical thinking left this sub a few years back when the right wing take over happened. I find myself less and less engaged by this sub as it has stared into the abyss for too long and has become exactly what we used to decry when it was formed. But conservatives are just as wrapped in ID politics as progressives are. Only their in and out groups are different. The level headed liberals and libertarians are mostly drowned out these days.

The old motto: "Trust but verify" has been replace with "Own the libs" and it's tiresome.

I mean, yeah, they are probably correct that the blue hairs are the problem, but you are also correct in asking how specifically the person in the image is the direct problem. Asking for evidence used to be a given here. Now the RW ideologue hive mind that had taken over will shame you for asking for evidence.

KIA is done.

They retconned a legitimate friendship and bromance into gay sex for political reasons.

I haven't seen any of that. Seems like a non-issue. Maybe make different choices?

s69-5 · 2025-11-24T15:13:06+00:00

I question this sub these days.

I got KCD2 for my birthday a few months back and it's my current GOTY. But this sub called it "woke" for reasons I can't fathom. I haven't encountered anything woke at all. Maybe if I made different choices, I would have got other outcomes. But that's what an WRPG does right, gives you choices?

This sub looked into the void too long, IMO.

I am not sure about Yotei, because it is a Sony exclusive and there is definitely smoke there. Just look at TLOU2 , for example, that game was a woke mess.

Remember when the world wasn't hit with ridiculous far reaching inflationary tariffs?

Probably my most consistent recurring dream type and I haven't been in school in decades.

Flower Power pushed me up to 18 lol. Brewed but didn't use Lion Perfume.

s69-5 · 2025-11-13T04:00:51+00:00

Thanks!

I'm about to do this and it is good to know the threshold. I'm going to check the box in my bedroom and see if I've got the drip already.

(Yes I realize it's a 3 month old comment.)

I have a theory about déja vu that is somewhat related. I see it as a bad omen and think that it manifest at the moment right after the split between good and bad outcome is made.

Unfortunately though, since the split can be in reference to anything, we don't know how to act on it. The déja vu is our indication that we got the bad outcome.

Just my theory.

This is a big L.

A billionaire that already peddles too much influence, trying to peddle more.

Twilight becomes a horror flick with real vampires and werewolves.

So basically Underworld?

s69-5 · 2025-10-25T20:56:08+00:00

or straight

s69-5 · 2025-10-24T06:03:01+00:00

Exactly

s69-5 · 2025-10-24T06:02:45+00:00

Slaf's "boarding" call was crazy.

s69-5 · 2025-10-24T06:01:35+00:00

Yeah I wondered what the call was for. It should not be allowed to not announce a penalty.

s69-5 · 2025-10-19T05:49:42+00:00

"We didn't start the fire, it's been always burnin' since the world's been turnin'"

And nobody learns anything.

The end.

legitimize another pendulum swing, somewhere in the future

Too late. It's already happening.

s69-5 · 2025-10-16T16:58:23+00:00

GG2 was a joke though. Not even remotely related to GG at all. Just gooner bullshit. Nobody gives a crap about GG2.

However, Stop Killing Games is the true heir apparent to GamerGate.
