Well I’m sorry if my first comment came off a little harsh. It’s a subject I get defensive about and that doesn’t really help conversation. I appreciate you listening and feel bad for calling you an “ally” since you do seem to genuinely want to understand.

I think, a lot of the time, these groups are made up of younger people (13-24) who are looking for an easy creative outlet. Fan-fiction is very simple to approach because there are already established settings, characters, backstories and conflicts. It allows them to really focus on just delivering a closed narrative…

OK, you are really being disingenuous here. Nobody is posting their fetish shit with the intention of triggering and disturbing other people. They can’t help that other people are going to come across it. It’s not like it’s hate speech, where it’s created with the intent of upsetting others. If you don’t want to see…

No. I’m vastly more concerned that people are fucking stupid enough to think like you do. Gtfo the mom’s shit and stop playing internet parent cuz it’s ignorant as hell.

i’ve seen some pretty extreme cases of false equivalence in my days on the internet but holy shit that one is next level

ITT: people so goddamn stupid and sheltered that they think giving a kid a violent video game is equivalent to giving them hard drugs. like, did i somehow accidentally click through to a Facebook group for conservative moms?

You are talking about people whose critical thinking in this life has been largely limited to deciding between frozen bullshit in a grocery store. To ask them to evaluate race relations from a realistic angle is like asking a cat to understand why you don’t let it tear up the leather. It’s impossible because they…

Most of these types never get it unless it happens to them. That’s the sad effect of American individualism.

It’s interesting that was so helpful for you, because it was by far the least useful popular sentiment about suicide for myself. In fact, it was actually pretty damaging, because for most victims it’s total bullshit.

This woman is the posterchild for the rising death rates in white people due to suicide, drugs and alcoholism. They are full of such intense bitterness and hatred that they cannot even stand in line anymore. They cannot sit on airplanes. They have lost all self-awareness. They are children throwing tantrums and it is…

That’s where I’m already gone lol. I guarantee that shit is made up, and that is a creepy fucking fantasy to have in the first place. Also this is 2017 - if you are still using :) in text messages when there is almost guaranteed to be a full emoji wheel one click away, then I don’t trust you.

Pretty incredible. This is going to stand forever as well since the only other people who are close to his time are still quite far away.

Lol you are comparing the true Grandmaster exam on TGM3 to 300 line doubles on TGM2. Of course it is slower. That does not make it any less impressive, especially considering this streamer is one of the few people in the world who is capable of GM in TGM3 as well.

Those people do not appreciate history. They are revisionists.

THANK YOU. But you are missing a KEY piece of the puzzle here. Please don’t forget that the flag was not flown for many years after the Civil War because it was a goddamn embarrassment, and that it was only in the Civil Rights Era that Southern Dixiecrats decided to dig it up, specifically with the intention of…

Yeah, I actually thought the joke was kind of a direct jab to Putin’s homophobia. This is actual PC nonsense, and that is coming from someone who physically gags whenever they read the term “PC culture”.

Thank you! I’m glad other people also sees just how unrealistic and contrived this scenario feels. The idea of constructing 13 tapes itself is absurd when the vast majority of victims don’t even bother to leave a letter. Even the method she chose is one of the absolute least used in actual suicides. If they wanted to…

I never claimed that my experience is universal, but I do think there are some thought patterns which are very common to suicidal behavior, and this show deeply indulges those. I am not saying it’s wrong because it’s unlike mine. I’m saying it’s wrong because it fumbles the issue completely. I think you are missing…

Well I’m not surprised about the defenses. Most people don’t really understand suicide, even though they think they do thanks to the way it’s portrayed in popular media.

It would be a lot easier if you asked us to show you the ones who aren’t radicalized, tbh. Otherwise you are essentially just asking for a list of all the white people.
