Is this a remake of that Mel Gibson movie? Ive started seeing the trailer before current movies woul start in the theaters.

Btw, the movie premise feels unnecessary. Its no secret what men want, and they definitely do not need to read minds to know what it is.

NOTE: I fully recognize that leaving the accord was bad PR and functionally didn't mean much since it was more of a global "promise" than a binding agreement, but I still think it's worth highlighting that even absent the accord the US is improving on emissions while our biggest detractors over it are failing their own targets and our biggest growing competitors globally are blasting out emissions at historically high rates.


Our biggest detractors are a bunch of domestic and international haters. The US will continue to look for ways to implement renewable energy sources and perform and deliver humanitarian aid around the world. Its not gonna stop the usual suspects, whether its here or at the highest levels, from talking shit and hoping the nation crumbles. Dont worry so much about the PR; youre damned if you do and damned if you dont, anyway.

Lol, we are at a point where I honestly dont know if youre just playing a character for shits and giggles at our expense.

You demonize capitalism at every turn, yet conveniently forget that its responsible for raising the standard of living for millions of people all around the world, and its driven by capitalist innovations and efficiencies that create technologies and economic opportunities others dream about and are willing to risk their lives to be a part of. Its not just a Western thing either. Effing China and Russia are engaging in Capitalism all day, every day because they know how much stronger they are with it, even if they have to give it their own Communist spin. Its funny how the rest of the world realizes this, but its people within prosperous nations like the US, Germany and England that want to tear it all down and replace it with Fight the power! counter-productive nonsense.

Doom, the government already takes our money via taxes and pays for a lot of stuff that we all have disagreements about. Hell, you got Octillery saying we should give free houses and free this and free that to the homeless. Well, paying women to have sex with incels is another one of those social programs that could have an overall positive effect. I mean it's a win-win for both sides. Women who have no other skills or who simply love banging strangers will get legal pay, while incels will finally get sex and hopefully become more, I don't know, normal, I guess.

The fact that the only way a woman will entertain him with her pressence, is through money?
The fact that he has no spine, and is unable to take a stance in anything?
That the only person who at one time, legitimally cared for him, is way better off since the divorce?
That he has nothing going for him?
That he needs a mirror to see his own penis?


He has all of those things working against him. He has all of those disadvantages. And yet, he is more successful than a lot of people because he's made money by just talking about his weight problems and his love for video games. And so many people, whether they are fans or haters, can't stop talking about his life. Maybe it's not jealousy that's driving his critics, but there is some weird bitterness that exists. I mean if he is a loser, then what the fuck does that make you?
