Fellas, if you go on a date with a lady and it gets to the point that clothes are coming off and she is wearing matching underwear, you didn't decide to have sex that night.
She did.
No, the military as a system is terrible, but there's more leeway for military personnel specifically BECAUSE the system is so predatory, especially towards poor people. Cops and ICE affects, however, could've just as easily become plumbers or something
isn't it funny how being anti-cop & anti-ice is a universal statement but being anti-military is a taboo that will get you called a classist. isn't it interesting how we only judge systems of power when they harm americans but they are not that bad if they affect the global south
"but she wanted it at the time, she just changed her mind after!"
Yeah man, because if she had all the information at the time, she would NOT have consented in the first place!! ESPECIALLY if said information was being withheld on purpose because they knew it would affect consent
I hate the entire convo going on around that tweet because it oozes so much misogyny and r*pe-apology that I dunno where to even begin attacking it, but Imma throw out that yes, consent under false pretenses is, in fact, not consent
Feminist have been this bad for decades. I remember years ago in the feministing community blog a woman said she got raped at a wedding
> saw a handsome random dude
>snuck off to a hotel side room
>has a quicky
>upset it didn't last longer
>goes separate ways
>later sees man has wife and kids
>Cries rape.
People quiz her on why she wished her rape lasted longer. Real rape victim crash out on her. They get told her rape is as valid as theirs, etc.
The vast majority of feministing agreed the guy raped her.
The right lines to mock the idea of media literacy because 1. it allows them to try and enjoy things without seeing how dumb it makes them look, and 2. widespread media illiteracy makes it easier to lie and grift
Except the tweet isn't saying that everything they do is to make you miserable; it says that they enjoy that you THINK everything they do is to make you miserable. It even doubles down at the end when it says "you'll never get back what YOU THINK you had"
Liberals will ask, "Why can't you just enjoy it?" at the same time other Liberals post, "Everything I do in life is with the intention of making you miserable".
People are not angry because they can't enjoy things. They are angry because they correctly understand that the things they once loved are being converted into weapons for an ideology that hates them.
There is a very obvious sadistic side to Progressivism's hijacking of things like movies and video games. These people do not love the media they're destroying. They're not trying to make something good. They just want revenge against the normal world.
They want the actual fans to feel alienated and dispossessed. That's the entire point.
And every so often, someone is bold enough to admit it.
@BPujanauski@SteadtlerA58435@quirked_up_anzu Kylo very specifically DIDN'T blow it up, actually. He was going to, but couldn't bring himself to do it, so it was one of the other guys that ended up pulling the trigger
Always funny that the "satire of fascism" has a teacher who's also a ranking member of the military in the supposed fascist state tell a student to think for himself. Verhoeven sincerely did not understand the message of his own movie.
There's nothing wrong with being gay, but if you're also going to actively oppose and oppress the LGBTQ+community, you deserve to have that hypocrisy pointed out
What the conservatives consistently fail to realize, is that people don't point out their gay tendencies as an indictment of gayness, but rather as an illustration of conservative hypocrisy
Every Leftist insult directed at Conservatives is always just an accusation that theyโre secretly doing the very things Liberals themselves openly celebrate and relentlessly try to normalize.
In brief, here's what happened:
1. Robert Heinlein wrote STARSHIP TROOPERS to showcase martial virtues like honor, self-sacrifice and heroism.
2. Paul Verhoeven, a member of the Arts 'n Crafts wing of the European Left, was displeased by this and wanted to piss all over Heinlein's message.
3. Paul is a gifted filmmaker but an inept propagandist. He dropped the ball so badly in Troopers that he wound up celebrating what he set out to mock.
4. The Bugs are bad. The Federation is good. Rico and his friends are good. Even dressing Carl up like an SS officer didnโt make HIM less good.
5. Itโs one of the most remarkable backfires in propaganda history and I do a happy dance every time I think of the little Dutch boy grinding his teeth over people loving what he wanted them to hate.
