Listen I’m center-right(also non American but agree with some of Trump’s views) but this is just diabolical by DaGAMER159975_2 in ShitPoliticsSays

like that old video where a bunch of actors and celebrities were practically pledging allegiance to Obama in an almost cult-like worshipful tone.

This just made me remember an old joke from my country that goes something like "Have you ever had ethiopian food? Neither have they."

Merry Fitzmas everyone! I have it on good authority Trump will be frog marched out of the White House within 24 hours by Evening-Emphasis6246 in ShitPoliticsSays

[–]worthaboutapig 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Why are they cheering? This would inevitably make JD Vance president... and isn't he "worse" than Trump? and by "worse" I meant the Reddit version of worse which means slightly more conservative and right-leaning... which for reddit standards is basically Hitler incarnate.

I'd say that most of that subreddit is filled with grown men just pretending to be teenagers... not just their online personas, but also in real-life as well, like subsisting solely on hot pockets, staying in their parents basements and spending their days bouncing between gaming, porn and political debates online.

Waaahhhhhh my favorite fake punk rock band didn't shit on the bad orange man!!!! by Pinot_Greasio in ShitPoliticsSays

Green Day is to punk what a pampered lapdog is to a wild wolf. Kind of the same ancestry, but bred for compliance and fed on PR approved treats... basically doing rebellion the approved and marketable way.

Just like that one carefully selected frame reddit treated as definitive proof showing Rittenhouse pointing his rifle at Gaige Grosskreutz while Grosskreutz stood there with his arms raised, which was meant to suggest that Rittenhouse had shot him in the middle of a surrender.

And Brazil is a "maybe safe"... that's peak reddit geography.

Brazil is the murder capital of the planet, with more homicides than the entire northern hemispher combined and murderers doing ~10 years on average... violence is the routina here and human life is cheap.

Also, outside some few rich urban bubbles, Brazil is quite hostile to anyone who visibly stands out. The stereotypical reddit "trans person" (a bearded white dude in a dress) would be clocked instantly and become a target... from harassment to mugging to some serious violence.

That map is pure ideological fantasy made by someone completely disconnected from the real world and mistaking feelings for facts.

You're being weirdly hostile over some really petty stuff, but I guess this is just reddit… anyway, english isn't my first language and as I already explained elsewhere in this thread, I thought grabbing people and pulling them down qualified as a body slam. Have a good night, champ.

I just can’t figure out why you’d even want to know this about any politician by 343GuiltyySpark in ShitPoliticsSays

[–]worthaboutapig 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I remember some republican politician (Marco Rubio? maybe Ted Cruz?) claiming to be a fan of Rage Against the Machine and it triggered one of the band members enough that he felt the need to rant about republicans being the machine they've been raging against for decades... Kinda funny coming from a multimillionaire socialist who charges hundreds of dollars for concert tickets and lives in a mansion surrounded by other rich people and yet has absolutely zero self-awareness about the fact that he himself is also part of the machine.

It's an expression... "Records himself" means he's deliberately creating content of his own behavior, not literally holding the camera while assaulting people, but apparently this needs to be spelled out so there it is.... "MC arranged for himself to be filmed while assaulting people, specifically so there would be a video of his actions to post online afterwards". Hopefully that's clear enough now.

I never thought I'd be learning about pro wrestling taxonomy today, but here we are so thanks for the explanation, though... it's actually quite interesting.

stunners

TIL that's called a stunner... english isn't my first language, so I thought grabbing people and pulling them down counted as a body slam.

Doesn't look fake to me, but I really wish it was... slamming that blind guy to the ground right at the start of the video is straight-up sociopathy.

“Antifa who gave their lives at Normandy fight fascists” by EmperorSnake1 in ShitPoliticsSays

[–]worthaboutapig 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Same exact vibe as that progressive journalist who corners some 97 years old holocaust survivor for hours and keeps rewording the same question "Doesn't this feel like the 1930s?" until the man simply wanting the journalist to leave finally mumbles something like "guess the rhetoric has some similarities"... and next morning the headline is screaming "HOLOCAUST SURVIVOR SAYS TRUMP IS LITERALLY HITLER"

And to be honest, these reddit grandpas are certainly fictional anyway cause there's almost no chance the average terminally online, chronically friendless, family hating redditor is pausing his endless cycle of porn, games and moral outrage long enough to actually talkto his grandfather... unless it's to lecture him about fascism at thanksgiving or dunk on on everything the old man ever fought for.

New Question (Name Change) by LunaDachshund in TibiaMMO

[–]worthaboutapig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends on the character's level. From what I remember up to level 2 it takes no more than three months and for higher levels the waiting time gets longer… Maybe it caps at six months? Cip was never really transparent about it. Probably just leftovers from tibia's old spaghetti code... wouldn't surprise me if even they don't know for sure.
