I don’t know how people got that take from Tropic Thunder when they explicitly make reference inside the movie to how messed up and wrong it was. Like, that was the joke. RDJ was playing a character so full of himself that took method acting to it’s extreme. Am I missing something? Id love to be educated

Are they still around though? I think they filed for bankruptcy. The jeezus wannabe ceo was a good con artist.

Her essays are also superb.

No

This is the viability / bodily autonomy argument combined. I don’t think conservatives find it all that compelling as they are advocating for the rights of the unborn. You wouldn’t turn off the life support of someone that is conscious but on a ventilator, right? It’s the same principle. I’m just telling you from their perspective.

I think the strongest argument in favor of abortion is the consciousness argument (around 24 weeks I think).

It’s not so simple otherwise we would have all figured it out long ago.

Not general omnivores - there’s a specific type for that category. I’m no biologist though so ill have to look it up and get back to you. I could be wrong. Don’t trust a stranger on the internet lol

Aren’t dogs some type of omnivores instead of carnivores?

Holup. Planetside is still around???

Did you mean Camaraderie?

Not really. He calls out headlines from news articles for actions that happened but not for his main claims.

First ten seconds in and he’s full of shit.

His claim is a conspiratorial garbage that “it’s by design”. This claim is never backed up by evidence. It has been debunked thousands of times and anyone that still spews it is doing it intentionally. This guy is 100% on the anti - establishment grift that is so popular on YouTube.

He doesn’t research or source anything. It’s the laziest gift ever.

Second thought is a scammer that used a gofundme to pilfer his fan base. Seems appropriate you would fall for his videos Linkerbaan

Are we starting a ‘best of lemmy hall’ because this shit is gold. Not broken arms reddit but it’s inching there

No worries. I’ll keep that in mind on my alt. I love you Flyingsquid. 😘 Keep up the good work

How do we manage trolls? I know I was banned from worldnews (I’m not mad) for calling someone out

Ok. I just wasn’t sure. I guess there’s always an element of risk involved in these things.

Is. This a scam??

This whole breadtube has become a parody of itself at this point. It’s a shame because when it started out there was. Some good stuff. Contra points still rocks but does she even count as breadtube any more?

Usually when discussing a heated topic (politics, gun control-take your pick) and trying to discuss the facts of the matter in a neutral manner but the response comes back with every phrase super charged with morally loaded words. Examples of a conversation I had recently (emphasis mine):

sure as hell isn’t PANDERING! What the fuck is wrong with you??

Typical apologist tactic

PRETENDING to care about the brutal slaughter of tens of thousands of innocent civilians

deflecting to your conspiracy theory

shows that YOU don’t care enough about Palestinian lives

It’s very pronounced on this site for some reason. I don’t know why.

Yea, I agree. That’s why I used the word discuss because when the debate-bro mindset kicks in you’re definitely dealing with an angsty teenager (also the constant invocation of logical fallacies).
