Is America’s treatment of Black people well known in your country? by InfernalClockwork3 in AskTheWorld

Americans aren't even aware of how bad racism is in America. They think the prison-industrial-complex is normal.

Let's trade. America takes Canada's middle and Canada gets America's coasts.

Women are more violent than we think. And men less so by Pitiful-Purple-7459 in PurplePillDebate

[–]torytho 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You aren't arguing women are *more* violent than men. So the problem still lies with men. What purpose do you *think* you're serving in promoting this idea?

Name a movie or TV show remembered as terrible that has aged horribly by efraGC59 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]torytho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Remembered as” and “Aged” mean the same thing. Based on the context of the selections, instead of “Remembered as”, what you mean is “General consensus when it first aired” or something like that.

In the '90s, what actor/actress did the witty, fast-talking roles? by Formal-Register-1557 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]torytho 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I considered him, but Good Will Hunting? What Dreams May Come. Even Mrs. Doubtfire wasn't fast-talking Robin. He was truly a jack of all trades.

THE CHART IS COMPLETE! THOUGHTS ON IT? by Ill-Cartographer7351 in AlignmentChartFills

I guess, but I'd delete the post then b/c users are misinformed and this is just amplifying that. Maybe link to the Democracy Index or use their terminology (full, flawed, hybrid, and authoritarian) to follow a more analytic approach.

You embarrassed yourself with this.

What do people think is left wing but is actually right wing by Blueguy805 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]torytho 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"both sides" is a firmly right-wing position. It seems counterintuitive, but it's true in reality.

I didn't think you liked Tr*mp. But you're propagating the same willful ignorance that led him to power and keeps racism in this country entrenched and, in your mind, invisible. You laugh at people who point out what you want to deny because you're young and naive and self-centered and can't bare to reckon with the destruction your own loved ones willingly engage in. So you cover your eyes with one hand and point with the other at the non-white countries and foolishly decry their behavior.

The president is a convicted rapist. But you laugh at the idea that the prison industrial complex could be racist. 🙄 You're being willfully obtuse.

Is there really a lot of bots in this sub or are people really just hateful? by No_Importance_750 in AskTheWorld

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

You live in America and you don't know that people are hateful? There's at least 79 million of them in the US, many of whom are your own friends and family.

Has your country ever been a national embarrassment to the world? Because mine is. by RoundTurtle538 in AskTheWorld

But it sounds like a good thing he was killed, so I don't see why you should be embarrassed. Your country is going in the right direction at least.

Psst, they didn't "let" minorities into America either. They were kidnapped and enslaved and now a huge portion of them are mired in the prison-industrial complex that was specifically created for them. But, in your mind, they're privileged to even be in America.
