As oppose to the parasites that used a supposed political movement to increase their own personal wealth?

He is literally the walking personification of white privilege. Considering people have their lives upended simply because they missed a court case, or couldn’t pay a fine, the fact that this motherfucker can continually violate his bond is fucking astounding.
Politics. He’s a martyr of the “evil liberals who want to take ur guns.” Republicans don’t want to be the ones to pull the trigger on this kid.
Oh god I already know they’re fucking Trumpers. The backwards cap and Botox says it all.
It is what it is. It was catchy dance song in a time where catchy dance songs were a thing.
Because it was a good wholesome narrative blogs and news sites could attach themselves too. A bunch of nerds totally defeated Wall Street!!
Right?
Right?
Move to Destiny 3 and end up pissing off a bunch of people in the process?
Why not both?
But you just said that you have a huge chunk of your savings in this. Does that sound reasonable to you?
But here’s the problem...that sounds kinda like the sort of right-wing internet cults that have been propping up. People get sucked into these things not simply because they buy into the toxic ideology, but also because of the communities they form. For a lot of these people the friends they’ve made is a large reason…
God look how much a week changes things. Last week it was a bunch of confessionals how “this was revenge for 2008.” A week later, it’s all about saving big corporations like AMC and Gamestop because they think they’ll get lucky and become rich.
It’s really sad when you think of it. There’s even some people on the reddit forum that notice that this whole “Gamestonk” thing practically ruined the whole forum. I heard someone mention that the movement has all the energy of the Capital riots, and it’s really true. A bunch of angry people with no real outlet and…
I’ll spoil the ending for you.
It’s almost as if the little guys still fucking lose a the end of the day.
Like, I went on r/wsb and my fucking god that place is one bad day away from going full on QANON nutso. The amount of LARGE CAPS, threads about fake news, and the near zealotry worshipping of DPV (or whatever his name is), just tells me that…
Incels turn into “Patriots.”
Those dudes are like every old white guy that I see at bars: They hate their lives, hate their wives, and are utterly emasculated. But when they’re “with the boys,” they can pretend for a little while, that they’re the Patriotic Alpha Males they think they are.
Blame Advent Children. That really is the moment FF went full on Hot Topic/Nomura on everyone, and the series has suffer. I’ve mentioned before that the art style of XV is nonsensical. It really feels like they just threw everything at the wall cause it looked cool with zero regard for world building.
Oh there were plenty of people who were conned into his “billionaire buisness-man” schtick. But I recall a lot of people who knew exactly what Trump was, and voted for him anways (or didn’t bother voting at all) because they viewed Hilary Clinton as the representation of the problem of the elite class. Yeah, Trump was…
That’s the problem with populist movements.
And even so this movement doesn’t really change anything. It annoys Billionaires, but it doesn’t do anything to actually change the wealth gap. It’s just a nihilistic glee for the fuck of it.
A lot of people bought into Trump precisely for this reason. They will claim up and down that they hate him, find him grotesque, think he’s racist, blah blah blah..
But he’s pissing off the people who fucked them over. A lot of people were furious that the Obama administration didn’t produce the change they promise (as…
