Best case scenario for these sorts is they get hired as security for their rich masters and manage to successfully appeal to the NAP for why they shouldn't have to wear the explosive collars that Musk and the Reddit CEOs want them to wear.

My comment isn't advice so much as maybe reassurance: I was raised by my parents to be some sort of weird libertarian racist guy, and by the public school system to be a liberal douche. My entire life was steering me towards capitalist ideologies, and compared with all that, it took so little to move me towards communism.

The main thing now seems to be keeping kids (particularly boys) from getting sucked into right-wing bullshit that responds to the world getting worse by telling people it's dog-eat-dog and encouraging social-darwinist attitudes.

It is known: democrats do not value democracy, they value control.

Things need to be bad enough that the risk of being killed by the government / right wing street gangs is less scary than dealing with the status quo.

My least favorite thing about Christmas is the leftover days of December afterwards. Just this little dingle-berry on the end of the year. The holidays have all been ruined though, other than federal holidays giving people time off from work.

Liberalism is a political and moral dead-end, and liberals (at least the big L variety you find posting like this) are terrible people.

"They're being taught to hate the country that put them where they are"

Where they are: crushing medical debt with chronic pain, scared of becoming homeless and murdered like Jordan Neely, whose killer roams free

Are you talking about the one from "Gods and Monsters"? I wish the whole movie had been about that version of Superman and left out all the other stuff.

A Superman that gets adopted by illegal immigrants, thus emphasizing the immigrant aspect of the character, which is always there but always downplayed by the Smallville white family backstory? Great, interesting!

Then there's Batman ... but a vampire? Wonder-Woman ... but a New God and she doesn't respect consent? Uhhh ... ? Coulda left all that shit out.

IMO it's flat out worst interpretation, next to "Superman as ICE officer" in that one comic.

I am still scared it's gonna suck though. Superman has been cursed, movie-wise. Mostly I was turned off by how many other characters they're throwing in with it, makes me worry it's gonna be a big sloppy CGI "toy-masher" sort of film.

I looked up this guy's twitter profile and his bio is literally just "I study IQ, dark-skinned people have low IQ, White Europeans (TM) have high IQ."

Is there anything more vacuous than a person who attributes everything to "smart number too low?"

But for those folks: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22222219/

Didn't the creator get screwed by netflix on the payment for the original series? I'd be tired of getting fucked too.

Wonder how much coverage it will get compared to the CEO getting shot.

Every US-made war movie is just troop-wank.

I just want ps2-level graphics with good art direction (and better hair, we can keep the nice hair) and interesting gameplay and stories. Art direction counts for so much more than graphics when it comes to visuals anyway. There are Playstation 1 games with good art direction that imo are nicer to look at than some "graphically superior" games.

Ugh. What a waste.

Has it ever been so transparently clear whose lives matter in this country, and whose do not?

Why is there a sudden influx of blusky folks? Did they do a lefty-purge over there or something?

What I'm getting from this is that Luigi should have started his own insurance company exclusively for insurance CEOs and then denied them all coverage when they needed it to kill them the legal way.

Also Zoe Strimpel is one of the OpEd shitheels I recognize from smearing Jeremy Corbyn as an antisemite, and defending israel (by calling people antisemites mostly).

"Capitalism is a system where people go without shelter and medicine they need because they are too poor to afford it, but where people whose only contribution to society is twitter posts can afford to waste $1500 to own internet communists with a youtube video.

You are expected to endorse this system."
