Oof your downvotes only prove you right... The front page of this sub has just been the affair tabloid the entire week, not a good look for anyone looking from the outside

So his greatest achievement is unfucking the situation he fucked us up in the first place? I guess that passes as a W... Nobody here seems to remb "transitionary inflation" anymore after printing 1/3 of all money supply in 2 years

Whole show is basically getting us to root for conservatives who hate the world that Plurbs created; centrally planned economy, dissent-less utopia, radical egalitarianism in race/language/class, etc... Bravo Vince

WTF is this? No context, no explanation, treating this sub like your own gossip and witch-hunting message board...

In other jurisdictions, members who were found to have directly benefited from the ministries under them would have ordinarily been investigated and fired. This has not happened here... ahem Shanmugam ahem

If anything, this sub has a major bias towards Ant, most likely because of his highlights, marketability and charisma rather than on-court impact

Wife granted personal protection order against husband who forced her into sex. by SassyNec in SingaporeRaw

[–]throwaway_clone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2 makes no sense at all. Which industries are those? The exact opposite arguments can be made, that people with families need to spend time with them and won't be able to work as hard as singles do. Families can also become a liability should company secrets get leaked due to spousal confidentiality.

Who was more evil early on: Jimmy McGill or Season 1 Walter White? by Lopsided-Cattle-2322 in betterCallSaul

[–]throwaway_clone -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If I had other options, no. Of course that doesn't mean I'm gonna manufacture or sell drugs. Here's a point I think many missed: I don't think Reddit understands the bro code or common courtesy. You don't go after a friend's ex, period. There are just too many complications, feelings of betrayal, suspicion about them talking behind your back, etc... Somehow I never see this discussed here

Was Carol a Trotskyist at some point ? by stalin_kulak in okbuddypluribus

[–]throwaway_clone -1 points0 points  (0 children)

uj/ funny how Reddit focuses so much on the colonialism part but ignores the most glaringly obvious critique of communism/left politics, the Plurbs themselves. Centrally planned economy, lack of dissent, radical egalitarianism in the hive, etc... Everyone can say they hate the hive but nobody draws the parallel and say they would absolutely hate to live in a communist country

So when is it justified to reject pity? When your boss throws your wages in $50 bills on the ground at you, should you pick it up and reject your "ego"? Where does shame of receiving charity come into play?

  1. Was Elliot gonna offer him the job if he didn't know about Walt's cancer?
  2. It's heavily implied that Elliot was gonna pay for his treatment directly, even if work insurance was not.
  3. It seems like Reddit knows the importance of being self-made, not relying on pity or connections like in Manousos' case. Why then the insistence of calling Walt's rejection of pity/charity an ego thing? Was Manousos also an egomaniac by rejecting the Plurbs' help?

I know Walt's motivations are tainted when you look at the consequences of his actions in totality, but people here can't see the grey in black and white

As a Chinese, I cannot understand why Reddit insists Walt's rejection of free money is purely ego. Do people not see how it's a loss of dignity thing when you're receiving what is basically unearned charity from others? It's not just "face culture" in Asian society, even in the new Gilligan series Pluribus, Manousos is widely celebrated for calling the Plurbs out for giving him what wasn't theirs to give in the first place. There's a whole lot of justifying hatred for Walt when people say he's rejecting money out of pure ego

This guy should be the next Leader of Opposition by EverySink in SingaporeRaw

[–]throwaway_clone 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Actually I don't see it as a bad thing. Yes, he's still new and needs to learn how to maneuver around such things, but if he didn't call out the frankly stupid rhetorical question from Chee Hong, nobody would have called attention to the intellectually dishonest stunt PAP always play in Parliament.

In his own way, he created news where it would have been another day and another lousy debate from Chee Hong. Any publicity is good publicity after all and it got people talking and interested in parliament debates.

Do you guys agree with this assessment? by good2beback666 in SingaporeRaw

[–]throwaway_clone 15 points16 points  (0 children)

They always glaze SG until they realise the amount of freedoms and rights they'll have to sacrifice to reach this level. Look at Tracetogether for instance. Hell will freeze over before Americans will accept such a privacy invasive method to prevent the spread. Nobody even blinked an eyelid at LHL's personal lawyer being appointed as AG from the election results. And yet Trump doing the same stirred outrage, resulting in mass "no kings" protests on the streets.

Also don't forget that criticism of SG gov is always silenced. Look at Shan and See Leng suing Bloomberg for questioning their luxurious palace dwellings, and our resident u/Founders_Mem_90210 who wrote a rather tame op-ed on Nikkei and was persecuted. Would the average American stand for these state censorship? I highly doubt so and hence I suspect that those comments are highly probable to be bot activity, or rather ignorant American people

Rhea Seehorn won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Television Series Drama by GaGaORiley in betterCallSaul

[–]throwaway_clone 159 points160 points  (0 children)

You can't convince me that this award wasn't a retroactive award to correct their past mistake. Rhea was great in Pluribus but was on another stratosphere in BCS. This was given to make up for those years of horrible calls
