The problem is that when stupidity compounds people become certain of it, is has been proven that the more people repeat something the more truthful it becomes. -

And do tell, what does the compliance and approval of institutions and companies with this insanity is a symptom of ? -
Another incident with black men getting shot by police
Orogun01 replied to Drowsy Emperor's topic in Way Off-Topic
The gun in the glove compartment most likely belonged to the person driving the car, whom could have a weapons permit and be allowed to legally carry it within his car. The cops completely mishandled the situation, the victim didn't make any move that could be considered aggressive. The cop spent a few seconds trying to force the car door open all while telling the victim to get out of the car but threatened him when he tried to open the door (Classic erratic cop behavior of giving conflicting orders) and shot him as soon as he got out of the car. I do wonder how many cops would pass a mental health check. -
What's the point of games that attempt to emulate real life?

They do provide services to GG which is a hate group against women, also sexist: Cable companies Cars dealers MacDonald Burger King Wendy (she has internalized misogyny) FaceBook Twitter These forums My mom My other mom The Federal Government Basically if you don't refuse services to a known misogynist then you are sexist. Long live the age of insanity!!! -
Sorry Malc, I was just joking with Zora...hence the . Of course I respect the right of people to comment in the GG thread...I comment there myself. I see everyone is a little serious today.....amazing how we get mass killings in Nigeria, brutal beheadings by ISIS, Russian troops crossing into Ukraine and that barely gets an emotional reaction. But the Pretty Women thread gets closed down and suddenly no one has a sense of humour Considering that ever since the whole GG thing began members who used to browse the 4chan image boards have seen the last place they would have thought would turn PC ban them it is understandable that there is a fear that this signifies the beginning of larger changes to make the community more "inclusive". Also we're a little testy over the whole affair, might not be a good time to speak in favor of it as it might come off as bragging or condescension.

It might be an irrational fear of overmoderation, what with what its going on on the web right now. The fact is that it wasn't technically against the rules otherwise it wouldn't have had enough thread titles to go through the entire Star Wars saga and Pretty woman and post where moderated on a case basis. So it has to be questioned, why now and why over complaints? Is complaining now enough to get stuff banned, or is this just a preventive measure to avoid moralist rage? So I guess that I would feel more comfortable with the decision if I knew what the actual cause of it is an not a vague response.
-
Yes but it didn't last long as it was mostly pictures of men's men.
-
So just to be clear, what was the rule that the thread was breaking? Or are the moderators regulating content that an unreasonable person might find offensive?

How do you know Hitler quotes? -
And so goes the Pretty Women thread to join page Three on heaven, another casualty in the PC wars.

It's basically how the second term was won. Mitt Romney was simply the mormon John Kerry, neither really had the charisma to upset an incumbent, even one rocking super low approval ratings. I think that in this day and age, every president from history would face low approval ratings. People have become more cynical and more entitled at the same time and anything that isn't giving them exactly what they want is the end of the world. It's not the president, it's the people. And that's why the president spies on them and sends drones to get them.

That was depending on the success of his idea which didn't pan out probably because no one wanted to be associated with the founder of 4chan. Now it seems that he is just leaving and if the past few months are any indication he seems to be trying to sever ties with 4chan.

About 10k. Actually, GameFront was part of the same budget cuts and their EiC appeared on TotalBiscuits GG roundtable and was mostly supportive of it. Again, how on earth is this a victory for GG? Has anyone said that this was a victory? -
Wasn't it a president that started that whole Federal Reserve stuff?

I'm pretty sure that legitimacy comes from governments, it is immoral as **** but legitimate. Should tell you all you need to know about how moral governments are.

Yeah but as usual with politics is one step forward and two steps back, this presidency thing is game of beautiful corpse that means that the next guy will have to deal with the fallout of decisions made on this presidency. It was like that with Clinton and it will be like this with Obama and he did some really bad things as a president, man would make Nixon look good in comparison.

Would you recommend the game?

"I'm the cook"' Now that just makes me laugh.

New vampire game is released and Obsidianites are arguing over etymology, stay classy. Really I think people that are hyped are hoping it will be like VTM:B but really I think it will be more like Dark.

I used to agree with this but after learning that women aren't getting into STEM fields and the ones that do seem to leave their jobs to do porn I agree with the feminist doing something to force women to be better. Not fair that they get to be paid more just to be pretty, once they eliminate those jobs they can stoke the fires by claiming that the pay gap has widened. Very Machiavellian these feminist, they have my respect for it. -
I liked that movie.

Ze are a lot of Deutsche truckers that enjoy relaxing after work by playing simulators. But seriously, you can't really get them until you give them a serious task. It is the same joy of actual work where you perform a task well and you feel proud of it, and they are actually good with some white noise a stiff drink. Very relaxing.
