Awesome :D I wish I was that cool, I was just really always excited when they came up. And I brought my stuffed panda around with me everywhere then ~~(regrettably the friend did not live till adulthood or for much longer, "died" sometime between the two documents this is involved in- family was a fuck~~).
I was absolutely a irrepressible thug (in a "do not poke goblin" sense, not a bully/etc sense) of a grade schooler, though.
Honestly even the "awkward chuckles" are a shameful thing, that not one person had the decency nor dignity to call that shit out. Pretty sure any non-white person has been there (seeing others, if not joining in the racism directly, awkwardly chuckling or playing neutral to the racism). In truth probably we all have also been amongst those silent before, towards even ourselves- I know I have- as a kid and in decreasing amounts as an adult (now I just don't take it).
It's a betrayal of decency, a betrayal of their humanity, that by the sounds of it not one single person stepped up. Not like I'd expect more from most western audiences, much less the typical "comedy" audiences, but it's some wretched shit.
At least the Republicans are considerate to ensure their deaths are hilarious (thoughts to that one chucklefuck who propped up a Trump flag on a Florida pier during a hurricane just a while ago, don't think he died tho).
No, you're valid as all hell. The devils want to destabilize the entire globe, and the truth is war and the fear of it sucks (especially as the west loves and is the real perpetrator of terrorism, whether that is with their beloved Zionists and daesh in the MENA, terrorists in the Sahel, those horrifying attacks on ethnic Russian civilians in Ukraine and then later in Russia itself, death squads in LatAm etc).
Honestly I get the apologies at the end (I've said similar when de-escalating from arguments that had racist shit- and then felt bad about even saying "sorry" at the end later upon reflection, like these fuckers won't give the same decency back). Don't be sorry. Fuck the west (I say as someone living in it). Fuck them (the broader society, heard people mald about "ohh noo so many of us are downtrodden POC etc" like no offense but it ain't on them and we all know it, and if they can't say "fuck the west" themselves maybe they should reflect on it), honestly one can't see their madness in the MENA, against Russia, in support of terrorists and fascists across the globe, and what they're seeking to do against China and ASEAN, and think that they get it, think that they can get it.
I'm glad that Iran is working ever closer with Russia, China, even India, etc. now. I'm glad that this time around- though things have escalated already to such horrific extents, because the west loves salami-slicing tactics and the imperialist mentality is wholly and utterly incapable of peace- that if shit truly comes to pass, the west shall have to live in even a fraction of the fear (it should be a hell of a lot more) that they orchestrate on a global level and particularly against the Muslim world.
I hope a broader war doesn't happen, but if it does this time around I hope the global majority sees to it that it's blood for blood, not engaging in nor condoning war crimes but the true experience of war and coming home (through state actions, not terrorism) may very well be the only thing that will kick some sense into the western devils. If they want to burn down Tehran, Beijing, Moscow, if they want to commit genocide on Palestinians or act like they own the Bab-el-Mandeb and terrorize the local Yemenis or talk about blockading the straits of Malacca, they should think twice. As said, I hope broader war doesn't happen but when and if it does I hope unlimited, infinite ICBMs rain down on the warmongering devils if they want their war so badly (which I suspect they do)
Agreed. Honestly many western ""leftists"" and ""progressives"" suck ass, even quite a few POC ones.
...is this praxis? In the cores I feel it might just be praxis...
Honestly, while I wish I didn't live in it and hate the human toll, I'm fine with the western "garden" financializing itself into obsolescence and worse while the rest of humanity marches towards a brighter future. Whatever material gain occurs in the west, until the imperialist world system of the west dies off completely, will first be used to harm the rest of the world 1000x over before it is used for good, anyways.
Even wypipo would ideally know better than to have "the world's friendliest CIA agent" among the supporting cast of heroes in the movie. Or so I'd like to think... though then again, "CIA killing/torturing/drugging Anglo wypipo = bad, CIA killing/torturing/drugging anyone else = good" probably is the logic
#1 is already happening, though the US will bring out the nukes (and probably even bioweapons, etc) before they ever stop being a bunch of genocidal rampaging barbarians. And I expect they will get destroyed by their victims' retaliation and hope it will be as decisive a retaliation as necessary, no matter what it takes.
#2 will come in time as well, I think. Hell, I think that if things escalate far enough, even India and perhaps the rest of BRICS will be forced to act, militarily- a basic understanding of US/western nuclear exchange planning, as well as the sheer inhumanity of the western imperialist system, will show just how deranged the west is and how intolerable and destructive it will be (should it be able to maintain its fascistic forces from within- the hope being of course that the empire could implode from within and that those involved in the processes of escalating to nuclear war and worse have the sense to revolt should push come to shove).
#3 is lowkey happening, IMO. I suppose if nothing else they seem to be imitating what works in some degree (the Chinese model of development and even the Soviet legacy which is not yet fully dead). Without the principles of proletarian rule I expect it will regress in time, but it's doing something halfway right (and in foreign policy it's doing a hell of a lot right), I suppose.
#4 is basically happening everyday, isn't it?
And #5... isn't going to be an accident, if it happens. The same country that has bombed its own civilians, which has used bioweapons and chemical weapons on its unaware civilians, which uses militarized police against its civilians, will naturally bomb them again, and nukes aren't out of the question. And honestly if the US somehow doesn't bring MAD upon itself before it gets to such a point, it'll probably strike those preventing it from doing so- maybe with nukes, who's to say?
I can't say I'd support it (b/c reasons) but it would certainly be entirely self-inflicted, if and when the rest of the world actually started targeting civilians when the shoe is on the other foot.
The cracKKKerverse can only wage demographic war on the rest of humanity for so long before things reach a certain point, after all, can't it?
Good point, in regards to that her lies did hurt OP (unintentional as that may have been). FWIW I didn't think OP is a bad person, it was a difficult situation and in the heat of the moment, I can't claim that I would have necessarily acted differently (hell, I'd say I genuinely used to be a bad, or overly spiteful/vengeful/malicious person about such things).
My comment wasn't written as, or intended as a judgement of OP's character (which wouldn't be defined by just one thing, hell, "good" people can do "bad" things), that said. I just wanted to bring up what everyone else here seemed to have not considered- what I'd like to think I'd do, if I approached things from a calm and collected manner, and the insights that I've had shared with me from others (not always taking lies personally definitely wasn't something I learnt myself).
There's all sorts of reasons why someone could cheat, or even (highly circumstantial and uncommon) reasons why someone should cheat. And seeing all the comments moralizing about always outing or condemning cheaters also just put a bad taste in my mouth (as someone who's never cheated, myself- though coming from the childhood I did, I can't claim possessiveness/exclusivity matters in the slightest to me).
Asmongold stream but it's just a AI-generated loop of a vaguely cryptid figure roaming an absolutely filthy neckbeard nest, incoherent mumbling interjected with "lemme nut" and "oh no, woke DEI"
