Simply being alive in a first world country bad for the planet if you take everything into account. The whole system needs to change

I’ll join Greenpeace when they rename to Greenwar

Do they think anti-capitalism isn’t woke or are they this oblivious to satire?

Lmao

Hot take : Jack Black is devoid of talent and people should just stop talking about him

Well I’m not sure it’s that hot here but it certainly is on the mainstream internet

This one is going to be a bit esoteric because it’s a very “local” movie but I’m gonna try my best to explain.

I’ve been recommended countless time by the gen X of a movie called “Le Père Noël est une Ordure” (Santa Claus is a Bastard) which is a 80’s comedy that ticks all the boxes for garbage conservative humour except for some reason everyone above their 40’s seem to think it’s really really funny.

It’s deeply misogynistic with extreme domestic abuse used as a plot device and running gag, as well as general contempt for women. It’s outright mocking poor people, shows disdain for white collar workers, while poking fun very respectfully at the bourgeoisie. The richer the less degrading. I’m pretty sure it has some racism but I don’t care to remember. And the most egregious of all is how massively transphobic the movie is. There’s a trans woman character, she’s an asshole, she’s creepy, and being trans is mostly what’s expected to be the actual joke.

I’m not even sure it has genuine comedy at some point, the cringe makes it hard to remember anything

The abject ableism of making the person with kyphosis betraying everyone after not being allowed to fight in the most gentle and reasonable manner by the good compassionate king is absolutely

Glad to hear that, lots of older folks loved that movie like “tehee so true, le gommunism ahh” and I always suspected it would just be propaganda. Now I know I’ll just avoid it at all cost

Media and politician’s sympathy for her leaving their bodies as they learn about this

Given that the first world wizards blindly emulate capitalist society when there’s no real need it’s coherent to imagine that they helped colonization by waging colonial war against the magical indigenous people

Yeah that doesn’t make it look cool but that’s an explanation!

Noam Chomsky is like Mao because he has good takes and bad takes. Noam Chomsky isn’t like Mao because he’s a white US academic who never lead any popular movement

I’m french and I agree

“Heroic white woman fighting for the rights of the black community vs black person being aggressive and uncivilised” liberal’s concealed racism perfectly exemplified

Yeah I agree with you

I saw the exact same thing happening on TV. There was a Palestinian member of the french left who was interviewed as a candidate for European elections and I kid you not the interview went like :

1. Journalist repeatedly denies that there’s a genocide in Gaza, interviewee cites international law and evidence to defend that there’s a genocide in Gaza
2. Journalist brings up that her party abstained on recognising the “genocide” in Xinjiang. Interviewee cites international law and simply say she’s still very concerned yada yada. Journalist repeatedly scolds her about it

If any lib in the wall needed further proof that the west, through their media, is never serious about human rights and only instrumentalises them

Still spamming that “human rights abuse” button to death they seem to still be persuaded that teaching jobs is torture

Yeah delete ranked modes for sure. I’d still want to experiment with zero SBMM, like, scientifically, to see how it goes

Freud : Hmmm yes das children secx with das mum

Deleuze / Guattari : FUCK YOU FREUD [incomprehensible 400 pages long rant]

Very serious academic discipline

objectively wrong,

I wasn’t talking about the objective side, more like, you might be able to objectively win more matches against more player than them (aka better in the elo system) but your teammates will still genuinely think you’re bad at the game because you missed one thing that they might have not

Yeah I agree and I think it’s awesome, let’s all suck ass and be happy, let’s be like kids instead of role playing as an athlete with a rank and stuff
