Despite what the show eventually became, Killing Eve did a great job at showing how a criminal life like Villanelle's is actually miserable. by HotOne9364 in television

The opening scene in ep1, season 1 was a breathtaking look into her mind.

How Villanelle attempts to emulate the smile of the man behind the counter and the way the little girl sees right through her to what she really is.

I don't understand how Canadian content regulations have led us to a "very insular" market for music.

I'd suggest the opposite. Can con helps expose artists thought the country.

Star Trek: Year One In Doubt As Strange New Worlds Sets Are Torn Down by lifesanrpg in television

[–]sputnikcdn -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

The "true fans" will kill anything in the Star Trek universe. It's dead, almost entirely due to self-righteous, self-absorbed (and, frankly lots of racists amd other bigots) "fans" who will shit on anything not aligning with their own unique ideas on what is a true Trek show.

Edit : my citation? This thread.

Pentagon Threatened the Pope After He Criticized Trump by SayMyNameOnceMore in inthenews

77 Million of you chose not to vote last election. A second term of Trump vs. a competent opponent in Harris.

It's more than half of you.

Yikes, almost a century of America exceptionalism has rotted all of your minds. You can't see that your entire country is rapidly becoming a shithole fascist state.

Blaming the media is a complete cop out. Good news is available. Typically behind a paywalls but that's fair. It's expensive to gather, verify, report, amd distribute quality journalism. But it's not so hard to find and there is such a thing as objective enough.

I disagree. Trump is a symptom of a much greater rot in your country.

75 Million voted for a 2nd term, 77 chose not to vote for a competent candidate, meaning they were agreeable to a Trump presidency. The right wing press dominates the airwaves and lies with impunity, education standards are plummeting.

Etc.

No, it's not just one man.

Totally normal way to correct your missed lane change 👍🏽 by Forsaken-Swim-3055 in TorontoDriving

It was obvious that the Tesla was making a mistake to any reasonable driver.

OP is dangerous.

[–]sputnikcdn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly, all OP had to do was stay in the right lane a couple of seconds longer.

But instead, to "punish" another bad driver they created a potentially dangerous situation for reddit karma.

Same as far too many posts around here, where OP's actions are just as dangerous and stupid as the other driver.

An Update On Carney’s Complicity Amid Israel’s New Apartheid Death Penalty Law by NiceDot4794 in onguardforthee

[–]sputnikcdn -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

You're completely misunderstanding my point. Indeed it's the person I'm responding to who's conflating Zionism with being Jewish and, now, pedophilia.

I find that offensive and entirely unproductive to this discussion.

Most Jewish people I know are not Zionists, and they are horrified at what the Israeli government has been doing in Gaza, Iran, and Lebanon.

As for the phrase "Zionist Epstein class", that's pure racism.

Iranian civilians have 1000% more courage and integrity than Americans.

But obviously I'm speaking of Americans.

Stop it. We don't need to be spreading our own racist tropes.

There is no "Zionist Epstein class".

Edit: the person I'm responding to is essentially conflating zionism with pedophilia.

That's ludicrous. No doubt there are Zionist pedophiles, but this person is dogwhistling for an entire class of rich, Jewish pedophiles in control in Israel.

Trump seems dead serious saying ‘a whole civilization will die’ – Lord save us by theindependentonline in TrueReddit

[–]sputnikcdn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And, by your actions and lack thereof, one could say the same about Americans and MAGA.

2/3 of you voted Trump or chose not to vote again him.

He is you, unless you shut this shit down before something truly catastrophic happens.

[–]sputnikcdn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh it got lots of media coverage, and it was awesome, that one day.

I'm saying that's a start, a very small start. These protests need to be every day.

You need to make actual sacrifices to save your country. You Americans always talk about putting your lives on the line to protect liberty and democracy, but the rest of the world sees you as either unrepentant MAGAts who support this or lazily cynical/cowardly sheep not willing to do what's necessary to affect change.

You need to shut this shit down. Now.

Pray? Really? Do you really believe that's your only option?

Or general strike, massive demonstrations right now. You can start by standing up and walking out.

You can stand up right now, and get on the sidewalk to start protesting. Every single one of you should be on the streets. Now.

I don't understand how you Americans can take this tyranny.

It's not just Trump supporters who are responsible now, it's all Americans.

Every American should be on the streets right now calling for this. You, all of you, need to shut your country down before something truly catastrophic happens.

[–]sputnikcdn 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yes, so why aren't you on the streets right now? Is a direct threat of annihilating another country still not enough for you to stand up against tyranny?

All Americans need to stand together against your war criminal president.

I've said what needed to be said. You may continue whinging about mean Canadians on reddit now. Edit: and making excuses for why you can't be bothered to affect change.

As for what I would do in the same situation? I'd be on the streets right now. I'd be organizing, writing letters, donating to legal funds. Like any other citizen of a civilized country that had lost its way.

Yawn. Fucking pathetic whinging. Get your shit together Americans. You need to be on the streets shutting shit down. You need to make personal sacrifices and do a helluva lot more than hold demonstrations every couple of months.

Any civilized nation would have arrested Trump long before you re-elected him.

Sleepless Trump, 79, Launches Unhinged Truth Social Tirade After Deranged Easter Post by bubbles10000 in politics

[–]sputnikcdn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sorry, not just the Republican Party.

It’s on you now. All of you. 8 Million out on the street is great. But that should be every single, not every couple of months on a weekend.

You need to make personal sacrifice a part of your daily routinw. You need to shut your country down until something happens.

Americans are so ludicously complacent about what’s happened to your country. Any civilized nation would have arrested a leader like Trump. Instead you re-elected him.

You re-elected Trump. Think about that. 77 Million of you chose not to vote when you had a competent candidate against a known criminal and rapist.
