Would I be seen as "controlling" if I didnt?

They want to be able to ban abortion statewide via the state legislature and make it impossible for a citizen-lead initiative to overturn it

It can always be overturned. The people will get what they want, even if they have to abandon the state to do so.

Tell her you liked Trump.

They don't need to worry. He loves to block people who have his number.

When they try to doxx me and/or relentlessly stalk me to totally unrelated message boards just to say "Greenknight likes Trump!"....yes. I will block them.

Why wouldnt I?

Am I currently blocking someone who is your best friend or something?

You supported his insurrection

I did? That's news to me.

You don't have 'different opinions' though. Just the same ones as all the other anti vax/alt right/anti woke inhabitants of the internet.

You dont even know my opinions. You never asked.

You just know that I said "I like Trump" and you filled in the blanks.

You think ALL Trump supporters have the same views?

BunkerBoy posted...

Anyone engaging GreenKnight should be aware he's a known Trump troll who was suspended for antivax/"conservative values"

I liked Trump.

Is that a bannable offense here?

Am I not allowed to have that political opinion?

Antivax? What the hell are you talking about? I've never been antivax. You are just making stuff up now.

Most of you seem to be 261 regs who are now lost and need to make this your new home. And you're caught up by me because you know I lean Conservative and that alone makes you Ree.

ai123 posted...

Do tell us about your 'different opinions'.

Can't wait to see if they're just bog standard right wing 'anti woke' stuff. Nothing remotely different about those.

Can you handle different opinions? It seems like a lot of you can't.

I just dont want this place to become a Leftist echo chamber like 261 was.

Fixed that for ya, mate.

You guys really want this to be the new 261, dontcha?

In other words, old-fashioned racism and right-wing corporate culture are helping ruin Japan. So glad you've finally seen the light.

I've always felt this way. You just never listened .

Just beat it yesterday. Not gunna lie...it was surprisingly anti-climactic. Just felt like BotW DLC.

Holding out hope for Metroid Prime 4.

Nobodies butt hurt, I think some people are more just burnt out on click baity headlines that don't accurately reflect a given story.

Exactly.

It goes without saying that people sympathize with the victims and loathe the monster responsible.

Do they honestly think there are people on this board who believe the girls deserved to die? Jesus Christ.

We're just sick of click baity shit with buzzwords like "incel" because we walk into the conversation expecting a certain story. And then we realize this had nothing (that we are aware of) to do with incels.

It's really that simple.

I know this board is obsessed with incels....but can you at least discuss them when it's actually relevant?

The guy is human trash, but there's no evidence that he did it because they rejected him. Kind of an important part of the narrative.

Unless anyone would like to post additional evidence?

GranTurismo posted...

What else could I be talking about?

It was just weird that you said "that stuff". Didnt know if you were referencing something else. Maybe related to hospice care, or the costs of medical treatment for people without dependents/families who can help take care of them.

Because it would be nice if it was illegal to just dump elderly people out on the streets if they cant afford medical treatment.

Imagine some 85 year old woman being kicked out of her hospital bed because her husband is dead, her kids are on the other side of the country, she had to sell her house to make payments, and now her bank account is dry because she can't afford the $2000 per day IVs and shit.

Oh yeah, the whole world is racist. But Japan in particular is extremely racist towards foreigners.

Many restaurants wont even let you eat there is you are black, white, or obviously a foreigner.

I've personally been denied service in many places. I've had friends get kicked out.

And no, before you even try to make any assumptions, nobody was being "disruptive" or "not following cultural norms" etc. Just kicked out/denied service for not being Japanese.

I get it. Maybe some tourists in the past were super rowdy, so now they just ban ALL foreigners from certain places. Doesnt make it any less racist. Assuming we're all the same.

Also, Japanese families do not like mixing blood. If their daughters dated an American, he better be a multi-million software engineer....otherwise they don't want anything to do with him. They'll disown the daughter in a heartbeat.

Hypocritically...Japanese men LOVE giant tits. Which are NOT traditionally natural on full-blooded Japanese women.

Tits slowly started becoming a thing when Japanese women started getting more westernized diets in the 90's....and then things got real weird, real fast.

But even with the big jiggly boobie fetish....Japanese men dont want to plow these women. They adore them from afar, or through anime.

They simply arent procreating.

It's a crazy situation over there.

Plus their culture is so "work-focused"....they can't have fun even when they want to. Dudes jumping off office building rooftops or stepping in front of trains. Happens on a regular basis in Japan.

TodorokiHayato posted...

You have to elaborate on this now. What happened?

You don't know?

For decades now, Japan has been on a downward spiral of low birth rates, depression, suicide, agoraphobia, etc.

It is literally destroying their entire country. It's a slow death. And it's painful to watch.

GranTurismo posted...

That stuff is still illegal in almost all u.s. states iirc

Assisted suicide?

Becoming completely dependent on others would drive me to suicide.

Not gunna lie.

Just feeling like a burden to loved ones....or hospital staff "tolerating" me because Im paying them for the service. And I'd be annoyed with them knowing they are sucking my entire life saving's dry just to keep me in a bed (or something).

It's basically hell on earth to become a prisoner of your own failing body/mind.

Truly sad.

As much as people dont like talking about it, Japan is an extremely racist country.

I highly doubt they're looking for non-Asian male stars.

Sure, there might be a few kink scenes they could use a foreigner for.....but generally...I guarantee you they are looking for Japanese men. They just cant find any that want to do it because they're so psychologically damaged over there. Real shame what's happened.

They taste sounds and make humming sounds that vibrate their brains in specific ways to foresee the future. They also have a profound amount of sex with other sound-tasters. When they aren't bumping into things.

I dislike anyone with an extremely strong and stubborn stance on something without a shred of nuance.

I also hate how people lump all pro-life and pro-choice people into the same umbrella.

There are pro-life people I hate.

And there are pro-choice people I hate.

It all depends on how they uniquely behave and how they try to justify their stance or (more importantly) shove it in my face.

Deal. Spiders that big will be able to eat way more mosquitoes and will be much easier to avoid. They won't be able to sneak into houses anymore.

Spiders that large might also have some significant medical/military applications.

Think of what we could do with their webbing!

Or train them for military operations. Maybe search and rescue? Surveillance?

Christ....can you imagine how AGILE the jumping spiders would be if they were the size of cats?

Only thing that would concern me is how their diets would need to change.

They might start eating birds instead of bugs. Or cats and dogs. Or people.

If their food source doesnt grow proportionally....they might all starve to death not long after being magically grown to the size of cats.

The AVERAGE spider would be that big!?

Do you have any idea how many spiders there are in the world right now?!

There are probably 5 of them within 3 feet of you right this second.

Suddenly making them all the size of cats would be total nightmare fuel.

And fucking awesome!

MAKE IT HAPPEN!

I used to, but it depends on the club.

If you go there with a bunch of friends and are kinda familiar with the place...it can be fun.

Your choice in music also matters, as most clubs focus on one style over others.

If your friends drag you to a club where the music is NOT your taste.....ughlk....super annoying.

The biggest issue is that a lot of clubs nowadays are absurdly expensive. Cover charges ranging anywhere from $5 to $20....just because there's some kind of "event" that night, whether it's happening while you are there or not. Standing in line forever just to get an overpriced drink that's probably watered/flavored down in some way to save the bar a couple bucks per drink.

Also, it's always mating season, so the young bucks get super aggressive for no reason. Some dudes go to clubs looking for women...and if they can't find any...they start looking for fights.

Also, as dark as this might sound...it needs to be said: At this point in American society....I kinda hate going anywhere with lots of people for extended periods of time. It just takes that one wacko who wants to shoot up the place. Or a fire. A collapsing dance floor. People getting trampled to death. Riots. Looting. Muggings.

I dunno. What's stopping people from going to the store to buy their own alcohol and have smaller parties in the privacy of their own homes? Invite only people you know.

And then have an orgy.

People were really getting their panties in a twist over Finn in Force Awakens before the movie even came out. It looked like he was going to be the star at the time and a lotta internet people did not want a black main character.

China literally removed him for the promotional posters and artwork.

Some shrunk him down so he was still on the posters but barely visible compared to the other characters.

China is extremely racist when it comes to African Americans.

I admit defeat as I don't have an example.

And isnt that kind of sad?

People need to write more minority characters that are totally original and unique.

cuttin_in_farm posted...

Miles Morales. Like, point blank.

He was never presented as "We turned Peter black."

Hmm...I think there was more going on here than you think.

He was never presented as "we turned Peter black"....but he was essentially a black Spider-Man.

Spider-Man was a preexisting character.

Im asking for a whole new, entirely unique minority character.

Besides, werent the movies super popular and successful? Didnt the video game sell really well, too?

creativerealms posted...

Though when they do make a new character to fit that minority role they also tend to hated.

Can you please give me an example?

I don't recall any new minority characters being hated.

I have definitely seen racists go REEEE when preexisting white characters are made minorities. I am not denying that that exists, and it's shameful.

But totally new and unique black characters being hated?

If anything, they simply aren't 'popular'...so they don't 'sell'. And that's a big distinction to make.

Are they unpopular BECAUSE they are minorities....or because they are UNKNOWN?

creativerealms posted...

Personally I feel that every version should change things. I liked the 87 series but I don't want it every single time. I prefer the 2003 series but wouldn't want any new version to copy it either. I have no problem with April sometimes being Caucasian and sometimes being black. Different universe after all. She also doesn't always have to be attractive.

Multiverse stuff is super trendy these days.

But I think it would be cool if people started coming up with new ideas, instead of taking the same characters and simply doing gender/ethnicity/sexuality swaps of them. It's lazy.

Write NEW material.

I often like to think of all those amazing scripts just sitting on some producer's desk......stuff that would blow Harry Potter out of the water. Stuff that would make Lord of the Rings look like childsplay. But no one wants to take a risk because it isn't a known IP.

StealThisSheen posted...

You always do this. You tiptoe around racist/bigoted stuff

Um. Who are you? I don't even know you. Have we had conversations in the past?

How have I "tiptoed around racist/bigoted stuff"?

By "tiptoe around" do you mean: have a different perspective on the matter and that personally offends you?

Because that's usually what it means.

If you don't like me, I am not forcing you to interact with me.

Sorry if I rattled your echo chamber by suggesting people would have complained if they made April white.

StealThisSheen posted...

Don't worry, I know you're just working on your next suspension. You have fun with that.

You think that what I've said in this topic so far is worthy of suspension?

StealThisSheen posted...

Suddenly lots of certain people (like you) are complaining when she's black.

Where did I complain that she was black? Im pointing out that people would have complained if she had been white in this latest installment, because I pay attention to pop culture trends.

You are just in denial and want to argue. Have fun with that.

ultimate_reaver posted...

no they wouldnt, outrage about this kind of stuff only exists in the wake of changes like this being made because it makes weird people irrationally mad, and then the people who hate this weird people make it into some sort of cultural last stand to protect the race swapped cartoon character

meanwhile normal people either dont care or just think the character looks weird and move on to the next Product

So if they had made April white and traditionally feminine/"attractive"....you dont think anyone would have complained?

No one would have written articles about how it could have been "the perfect opportunity to add diversity to the series" or something?

Have you not been paying attention to pop culture for the past decade?

You KNOW that's what would have happened.

Please don't play dumb.

I think the bigger issue here is the fact that people would have been upset if she was white and/or traditionally attractive.

But whatever.

I have no plans to watch the movie anyway.

This is a Moderator's topic?

Even "UFO" didnt necessarily imply ALiEmS.

People just want to reach with their imaginations.

Any unidentified flying object. It could just be a private jet that passed by so quickly you didnt get a chance to fully "identify" it. So technically that made it a UFO in that instance.

UAPs open up the possibilities of cloud/gas/astrological/cosmic/etc movements as well.

Pretty much any moving phenomena in the air.

It just makes it even more broad. Over-diagnosed. LOL

It's also important to acknowledge the reality and not some slippery slope fallacy that's not actually happening.

"Men arent suffering, so shut up."

PBusted posted...

Misandry is indeed a bad thing and generally visible in various legal policies but depression and suicide among young men are usually due to being unable to live up to the alpha male standards that men created, the idea that men are losers for being unable to get laid.

Men are the ones who decided alpha males were attractive to females?

Fascinating.

DarkChozoGhost posted...

Sure, and that should be watched out for. But that's not leading to nearly as much abuse and death as the redpill shit is.

I wouldnt be so sure of that.

A society saturated in socially acceptable misandry leads to a LOT of depression and suicide amongst young men.

Also, it's extremely toxic to immediately counter any claim of misandry existing with "But women have it worse!"

This isn't the Oppression Olympics where it's a competition to see who is more of a victim.

Men and women both have it bad. It's important to acknowledge that.

Yes.

And women are being lured into misandry.

It goes both ways.
