Okay, so why is this statement beyond the PALE*? Is it being president? Inheritting a war you didn't start? Is it the drones?Is it actually the drone policy you claim, despite google saying otherwise, he himself passed?That's why it's unacceptable? Him retiring from office and announcing that there's still reason to hope despite the country's decline since his leave? Really? That's your point? Half make believe, half condescending? Really? He's the best we have. Take it, or leave it. Idfc.
Literally the first president to actually have a drone program most of his career. I get that people like to hold things against him. And that's your choice to make. However, it would really help if we maybe used google, or the library, even.Your blatant dismissal of an uplifting message from an observably sane, kind, and family oriented man is a really gross stance to take in today's world, especially considering what we already know to be true from the opposite end of the political spectrum.
This was, in fact, not the point. The point was to show funny reactions to a surprise.You, in my opinion, seem like you lack self awareness. Your comment is not an internal monologue. Yours is an external monologue. You also read as if you're deeply insecure, which I doubt was your point, further proving mine.As a guy who has worn makeup, and has a beard, these two forms of maintenance are not apples to apples.Whether you are drunk, young, or incompetent, it does not excuse sexism.
Public disdain for white supremacists is worse than gore and torture? Really? That's your point? Not "I disagree that's happening, I don't see it. I only see the political, which is also annoying." or something like that? Just, "Torture and gore are more acceptable for me than nazis and fascists being acted against" outright? That's pretty crazy man. I don't know you, and I don't care about your politics, but come on. If you think you're better than other, prove it, don't announce it.
Look, it's fine that you chose not to understand my point, but don't pretend like locking down a threat isn't better than just cutting them loose. That's absolutely ridiculous. Keeping him beat into submission is, by far, the most efficient means of self defense. The guard is beating on someone whose only means of realizing he shouldn't put hands on everyone around him is to be beat, and when OTHERS are in danger you can, morally and legally, ASSUME self defense on their behalf.
It was 100% of the time self defense. You can't evaluate the threat of someone you've just hurt physically without guaranteeing they can't hurt you back. Him continuing the beating of someone willing to be violent at first is inherently still self defense if he has no reasonable and available means of disabling the assailant, and no reason to believe the fight won't continue after the assailant pleads for mercy. This wasn't a heated exchange turned violent. This was random assault.
Thar's the sound of him inflating his delusional ego.
Death can be really creepy to deal with some times, yeah. As you get older, it'll come time where you have to face it. When you're an adult, you'll realize how important it is to face it head on, and to support those going through the passing of someone they care about too. I know, honey, it's scary. But sometimes we have to be brave to come together and heal from the injury of losing someone. Okay, champ? If you have any questions feel free to reply, love and respect little guy!
No transaction, made or offered. He immediately respected the decision, you're blatantly wrong about that. "They failed in understanding what LUCKY was thinking about" is in fact not evident at all of a lack of empathy, it's a lack of mind reading. The line "this is what you're missing" is meant to let her know he is in fact NOT mad. As it did successfully. You receive a big fat F- for terrible reading comprehension and blatant projection.
I'm going to keep this short and sweet for you hun'. You made a lot of wrong assumptions, and you've started to attack the mundane. How about we get a snack, and think about that for a bit, okay?
No, it depends in the arwa they live, and the ways they brace for their environment. A strong wind would be better braced against like that.
Dude, I'm not trying to be rude, but I keep seeing you bring up Reddit, and it's just not the source you should be standing confidently on. Not only does it have a bad issue of overly emotional stubborn people who recite anecdotal evidence as end of all discussion, but an inherently toxic moderation system meant to lock echo chambers on top of that. I agree, this story is pretty dumb, and severely lacking in data. But, Reddit is not particularly valuable as objective resource to say the least.
I didn't say it was off topic. I said it's an assumption that a direct criticism to a specific company's policies that are, seemingly, shaped by global current events is inherently contributing to a culture war. It's literally "Ukrainians are being silenced, but not russians, despite the fact that they matter too." and you threw the "But all eastern european voices matter." No one asked for bans or removals, they're calling out an issue being perpetrated. Get over your selves you turbo martyrs.
I'm not really sure how questioning the moderation of a particular site became culture war, and I'm confused as to how you landed there. At no point was the OP attacked, nor were the individuals in this video. It feels like you assumed the tone of this particular individual, but I could be wrong.
I'm not trying to come across as rude, but that's literally the vibe they're aiming for. The humor's just not very funny, so rather than being endearing, it's a tad offputting, at least in my opinion. I do agree it's grating on the eyes, and a slap in the face to people who are more than capable of doing better. But, at the end of the day, if they get their lines wrong, or read too loud, it's okay, because the premise is funny. Unless it's not, unfortunately...
Sure, but this is just a petition. And to be fair, that talking point is really polluted after the PirateSoftware thing, but you made the point exactly without, so I'm not trying to be dismissive. I just think we should, one step at a time, sign the petition, demand attention to the anti-consumer practice of having absolutely 0 exit plan other than flipping a switch off, get an expert in the field to draft a plan, THEN we can worry about the legality of that plan. *cough* Just like a CEO would.
The amount of people commenting without understanding how much cheaper it is to have an automated online store for downloads, compared to a brick and mortar production, shipping, and point of sale is actually astounding. How much it costs to print a disk is so miniscule in the conversation, that the entire point is either hilariously bad faith, or wildly misinformed on logistics and business accumen.
2/2 want to charge. Physical distributors have to lower that percentage they make to even stay in the business, their sales aren't significant. These are luxury entertainment items. Their value is not that of an asset like a stock, or piece of land. You can't continue to own it, and have it be inherently valuable in use. You can only resell it, if you have the physical copy. The price of games are simply determined by the amount of money a company stands to make from projected ONLINE sales.
It's wild the community top comments a badly informed self admitted guess. It's cheaper to sell games online than in stores because you don't have to ship, hire individuals for every sale, and retain the physical location to sell the physical games. The developers give access to distributors. HOWEVER, 90% of games are sold through ONLINE distributors. Steam, Microsoft, Google, etc. eat the cost of download, and set the standard for percentages earned, meaning they determine how much they 1/2
As a white guy, they would never. I loved my immigrant labor job, (If you haven't had pupusas this is your wake up call) but we focus so much on dollar value provided through labor being as cheap as possible, and that degrades the value of labor. Not just monetarily, but even in gratification. It's gross, but the only way to get passed is to throw your hat in the ring, and drag someone who can make a change with you... or we could kick in the doors of, and eat the rich.
If you just make statements, you just state. You are not entitled to having made sense through sheer confidence.
You're right, my bad. I'd edit if I could, at least I can't from my phone. Thank you for the info.
And if their millions of dollars of tax laundering art is put at risk, they'll take it out back real quick.
He alledgedly walked up and killed a billionaire, although from my point of view I think that gun fired itself, I didn't see a man holding it. He can't do that in prison. Trump doesn't go to prison. Now, if he were released, MAYBE he would be eliminated. But, as is, it is an inveatment that gets very little potential return, in exchange for a high amount of risk.
You have to let it. If concious people continue to use it, and ignore concerns, advertisers will still pay for it. There are other full far-right echo chambers, and they can all be monitored by actual agencies, or else you're just helping them farm engagement. Farming engagement is the entire point, it pays the bills, and it'll encourage those that provide the engagement that pays the bills for the site. Let it become that terrible echo chamber, and do something else that is actually helpful.
"I assumed the tone of your comment, and decided to shame you." Is a wild thing to try to make your point with. This is why people turn of politics on this site. This community can shame @Doomicorn all they want, but at the end of the day, you'll be just as quick to make it a dog shit place for a sentence to exist as you can, just to let off your steam of keeping up with the news as any other social media.
First of all, no one used to come here. They added the community elements after making this website to host puctures for reddit, which by your logic means crack is just good, because I can just say so comparitively as if that's even fair or reasonable. It's called 'Trying things for a community to like.' change can be a good thing if unapproached with inmediate demonization and bitter resentment. You think the tiniest inconvenience you get from a product you DON'T PAY FOR is what crime?
You've taken "I don't like snowballs, but they're no bother to me directly" and ran with "people with purposefully obnoxious loud sounds should get away with it." You brought up ad homonym, when well advised to check with a specialist for a behavior you are definitely exhibiting, after starting this comment section with a scarecrow argument of your own. And now you're just calling plain old "bullshit", but you can't actually name one thing wrong with people enjoying something you don't, can you?
Right, because allowing a 12 year old to watch a scary movie in the safety of their own home is compareable to assault and crippling them. Your over-reaction is gross. You'd coddle a child into never contributing to society with this mentality, and force them to never be able to trust you in any practical real world examples. Hence why you had to make up such a ridiculous head fiction about the person to attack them. So don't take such a condescending tone, and don't mate. Dickwad.
Guys, stop engaging with this turbo virgin, they made their account less than an hour ago to run defense for a billionaire. It's a troll at best, and someone dreadfully incapable of basic understanding at worst.
