  1. Can I ask you a favor, I dont have the time or inclination to interpret or guess what you meant or what I am wrong about Just correct me , something like " no BruceVC I was saying xxxx". Its okay I dont mind being wrong
  2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1899_(TV_series) 1899 is from the creators of the German sci-fi thriller Dark. Its really engaging and even though its criticized for being slow I found it enthralling and I watched the 8 episodes over 3 days I have to say in the 20 years or so I have been actively watching TV series on DSTV I have never ever seen an ending as completely unexpected and exciting as 1899. Its mind blowing and Im not exaggerating, you should watch this series just for the ending and whatever you do dont read any spoilers or plot explanations Needless to say it begs for a season 2
  3. Its a great game FO4 and Im not surprised you finding it so entertaining, I spent about 280 hours on it but I used lots of mods and explored most of the map
  4. I love any Blood sausage for breakfast, sliced thin and cooked in oil make an excellent accompaniment for bacon and eggs
  5. Yes but like Juice Media "many a true word is said in jest " Thats often how political parody works so he makes valid points but its also exaggerated and humorous. Maybe we should ban comedians because we dont like what they say
  6. Absolutely and Apartheid sanctions play a huge part in that, we were behind in certain things and advancements until 1994 more or less and then things started changing
  7. Yes I did misunderstand you, I thought you were surprised with the concept of instant oats because cooking oats use to be a longer process
  8. I noticed he has other videos on Youtube but I havent watched them and my views on the virus and vaccine follow the science and doctors advice. Vaccines are the most effective way to prevent severe Covid symptoms and stop the spread and variants. So his view on that topic is meaningless to me because it wont change my mind at all
  9. Everyone must watch this video, its one of the funniest and accurate videos I have seen on a SJ topic Its about " how to be a woke white person "
  10. Okay, thats the first time I have ever heard that perspective before. Because the whole defunding the police became mainstream after the killing of George Floyd but actually you right, its not about black people because its not what most black people want As the article mentions its espoused by a small but vocal group of self-proclaimed liberals and woke white people who speak on behalf of everyone else But you know what matters the most, some cities in the US have implemented degrees of defunding the police. Do you know of any benefits from these changes in any state or city, if you can find links that would be appreciated? All I know about is the real and perceived increased crime in the US and this gets both fairly and unfairly attributed to programs like defund the police and this is a negative outcome. So Im interested in positive outcomes from defunding the police?
  11. Fair enough, bots could have influenced the Trump vote on Twitter, I guess we will never know But we know elections arent free and fair in Russia, NK and Iran because people get arrested, poisoned or they dont have elections like in NK
  12. I like those Legos memes Do you know the majority of black people in the US dont support defunding of the police and never have? https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/06/black-americans-overwhelmingly-oppose-defunding-police/
  13. I am talking about specific examples and Im not generalizing. I wouldnt wear an All lives Matter shirt because its obvious all lives matter. But if I was a US citizen I would wear a Blue Lives Matter shirt because I dont support the killing or defunding of the police, I have no issue if you want to wear a BLM shirt but how is it reasonable if the same company allows one type of shirt and bans another. And its irrelevant when Blue lives matter came into existence because we all know it came about after BLM but thats not the point. You assuming that if I want to wear a Blue Lives shirt thats means I dont care about BLM or unlawful actions by some police, thats not true as I explained. I dont tell people what SJ causes they can support as long as its legal And then are you saying by those links that highlight racist behavior that it represents what all Trump supporters believes so its okay to call them Nazi? We know that during some BLM protests there is looting and criminal behavior, does this mean its okay to call all BLM supporters criminals? Because I dont believe that in the same way I dont believe all Trump supporters are racist or Nazi
  14. https://www.jungleoats.co.za/Products/Instant/Oatso-Easy/Original In SA we have had access to instant oats for 15-20 years, I assumed this common in the rest of the world ...its known as Oatso Easy
  15. Elections in countries that are free and fair should be considered credible. Its not the fault of the outcomes if people dont vote I dont consider Russia, Iran or NK countries where elections are free and fair?
  16. Gorthfuscious thats a terrible thing to suggest, how are you going to find out when your favorite celebrities had a bad hair day or what treats they fed their Miniature Poodles? Twitter is critical to our survival as a society, remember before Twitter we use to use smoke signals as way to understand people's personal and arbitrary opinions...I dont think we can go back to those days?
  17. So you blaming the outcome, which was very close, on the fact that some people didnt bother to vote or didnt care to vote? Do you do the same thing in elections in countries when only some people decide to vote? Do we say " Im angry with the results and I blame the people who voted " or do you accept the outcomes because thats how Democracy works?
  18. https://the18.com/en/soccer-news/world-cup-2022/i-feel-gay-gianni-infantino-fifa-president-speech Did anyone hear the cringe statement from Gianni Infantino around his views about Qatar, according to him "Today I feel Qatari. Today I feel Arab. Today I feel African. Today I feel gay. Today I feel disabled. Today I feel (like) a vagrant. Today I feel (like) a migrant worker," he said. "I feel all of this because what I see ... brings me back to my personal story." While he drives off in his ferrari paid for in bribe money ( okay Im being unfair but you know what I mean )
  19. https://www.newsweek.com/trump-back-twitter-elon-musk-says-people-have-spoken-1760891 Trump is indeed back on Twitter, Democracy has spoken. 15 million people voted and we should respect the will of the people like in all voting outcomes I have mentioned this before but he should never have been banned because it fueled the hyperbole that freedom of speech is being undermined in the US. Also ideological lines are already decided when it comes to Trump, its not like Twitter is going to change people's opinions on him? Besides according to Trump he will continue to use his own Twitter, not that I believe him. He is too much of an attention seeker to not use Twitter https://news.yahoo.com/trump-says-hes-happy-twitter-132939373.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall
  20. Malc remember we dont like to use whataboutism on this thread, wasnt that what we agreed?
  21. Did you read the link? How is wearing a Blue Lives Matter shirt fascist leanings? How is firing someone for Twitter Nazi comparisons fine but when someone else says the same thing about Trump supporters they not fired? The article mentions real cases in the US of this inconsistency from the private sector. And laws already exist in the private sector for protection of race, sex, and religion so why not political views?
