I think it is, personally, wrong to define someone who died as a result of their own actions as a victim. I think storming a building filled with armed individuals and expecting them to not use them on you places you firmly in the realm of ‘not a victim’. That’s like playing on a railroad, getting hit by a train, then blaming the train.

I would not define someone who commits suicide as a victim. I would describe everyone left behind as a victim, but not the person who kills themselves. * For example, we in the U.S. are victims of the Jan. 6th insurrection due to the downstream effects on our current politics. Disclaimer: I believe everyone should have the right to end their lives however they want.

Beyond that, I also think it’s odd to use terms like ‘good’ and ‘bad (evil)’ when discussing things like this. Is it ‘bad’ to kill a serial rapist? Is it ‘bad’ to kill a child rapist? Am I a ‘bad’ guy for killing a ‘bad’ person?

Death is a natural consequence of life, we do not live forever. I think there are plenty of examples, naturally and fictionally, of why death is necessary.

Edit*: provided an example

You’re right, yet many people still say ‘literally’ immediately before saying something figurative.

Colloquialisms are king, you will always lose to the masses — in this case they happen to be very ignorant.

He also made a documentary ‘Where in the World is Osama bin Laden?’.

He, I shit you not, correctly guessed that he was hiding in Abbottabad, Pakistan.

If only he wasn’t a raging alcoholic. Kinda fucks up the whole ‘health conscious’ vibe here — even if he was absolutely correct that fast food is just fucking bad for you.

Ah, the tag ‘Knee Jerk Flame Fueler’ saving me a lot of trouble here

Literally means figuratively, whatever fight this guy is trying to carry on — he loses against the general ignorance of the masses. Evrytim.

Signed, guy who hates that literally means figuratively.

The future was supposed to have flying cars, what is this bullshit

Good friend… he’d have us all up against the wall immediately

You sure about that statement? I don’t think any of my friends would put me up against a wall to shoot for my political beliefs.

Normal human = Arnie in his prime, pumping gear.

The way we’ve normalized steroid use* is fucking insane. I remember when people used to be ashamed of that shit.

Edit* abuse because apparently the context isn’t enough of an indicator of meaning

Peter?

For a modern example you can look at China post Century of Humiliation, although I wouldn’t call China’s progress copium.

Isn’t water divining pseudoscience? I get that isn’t the point of the post, but I always thought it was bullshit.

Edit: should have responded to the comment about water divining, whoops.

Which goals, donating money to charity and opposing fascism? Or opposing fascism and supporting Ukraine?

Ok thank God, I thought I was going crazy for a second. This is the rule I follow and I had a moment where I thought maybe I’d been wrong my entire life. Should be more confident.

Uhhhh, hold on a second.

But if a woman cheats and has a baby, that baby always becomes part of the family. If a man cheats and has a baby… Either it comes out immediately when the woman in question asks for child support or tells the man’s wife/girlfriend, or it doesn’t really come out because that woman is also in a relationship and wants to pass the child off as her man’s. Plus even if 10 years down the line the woman comes out and says “hey you remember that time you cheated on your wife? Well I’d like you to meet our child”, that’s a lot less personal than raising someone else’s kid as your own and then finding out 10, 20 or maybe 40 years later.

What?

I’m hoping no surprises despite my slut of an ex having been with what I’m guessing may be dozens of other dudes in the <2 years we were together. The whole “pill baby” was so perfectly planned though, that I’m pretty sure she took a break from whoring until she was pregnant. In fact it’s what she did with her first kid’s father - quick break from whoring when she found a nice target, boom, pregnant, and then she was free to sleep with everyone again while he was at work.

There is a ton to unpack here that I’m afraid I simply do not have the strength for. What I can say is that your perspective is skewed.

People cheat for a variety of reasons. Yes, someone doing something like what you were a victim of is 100% an unforgiveable crime. Your life, your childs life, and the lives of anyone else that has to tolerate someone like that, have been permanently marked by her machinations.

That being said, people also cheat because they’re horny impulsive idiots that seem to think STDs don’t exist, let alone the biggest STD of them all : pregnancy (I’m kidding, childbirth is a beautiful thing — typically).

Not everyone is a criminal mastermind nymphomaniac roping unsuspecting men into… whatever the fuck her goal was. Seriously, you can’t let yourself think like that.

I’ve gardened all my life and my favorite flowers are morning glories, please shove a cactus up your ass. Thank you.

Even if you can’t play the game, watching a 100% playthrough with no commentary is worth it. The story is easily the best part of the game.

At least, in my opinion.

It’s temporarily embarrassed millionaire syndrome. Look at Alex Hormozi. Dude is the definition of faking it til he made it and he puts out stupid posts like ‘I ate Chipotle 500 times in a year because it saved me time I could be spending on making money’.

Most of the people in this ‘subculture’ don’t realize that they are crabs in a bucket.

None of what you’ve said in this comment is true, and in true conservative fashion — every accusation is a confession.

Hmm, you’re getting very pressed after being challenged for defending fascists. You got something you want to admit to the class?

No they’re definitely here, just go disagree with Dessalines on .ml
