@artjinni08@OBeebumbles8@Nooneimp345 Other cultures have their own issues or social rules to follow due to historical context you may not be aware of / understand. This one happens to be one of ours. And it ain’t even difficult to avoid.
@Sunseahl@JohnReed_1917@AThinksAloud How can it be a whitewashed version of history when a historically established dynamic of sexual violence done to slaves is depicted as actually consensual? That’s the question?
@BuckshotJ0nes@exitdave@TEXASDEATHM4TCH This is good for your victim complex. Tonight’s furious wank session to “God’s Not Dead” is gonna be extra pious, if ya know what I mean
@Gravey4Cap@Uncle_KyKy Man, the exact goal of the billionaire class is to do that? To boil jobs down to the lowest skill ceiling possible and pay the absolute least amount for it, yeah? So when do we stop playing their game? When do we show solidarity and say everyone deserves dignity? To live well?
@greyveyardshift It’s a worldview thing, right? They need to believe the world has a consistency to it / to how people’s circumstances work. Specifically, that they deserve what they have and others must deserve what they don’t. It’s magical, entitled thinking and it’s very, very American
@AbsoluteJuno@sparx_karl Dude, they’re not ‘talking points’. It’s a personal taste issue. Try to be less chronically online when speaking with people that are talking in good faith. I like AEW but can still dislike specific bits of matches.
@sparx_karl I do get that it’s a fun match and not supposed to be taken seriously. And honestly, even most ‘serious’ matches don’t really hinge on bleeding anymore since we all know how the sauce is made. Just a personal preference that blood be earned rather than checked off of a list.
@sparx_karl Apologies, everybody. ‘Unnecessary’ was poor wording. ‘Poorly built up to’ was the issue I had with it. For example, Megasus bleeding within 5 minutes after running into a chair wedged into the turnbuckle. “So there’s blood now” opposed to “oh my god, she’s been busted open!”
@EverythingDCU_@Variety Nerds bitched about it not being nerdy enough and the show had the audacity to say being black could negatively impacts one’s life. Not a huge surprise
