Honestly IMO, if the US put its foot down, the Dutch and the rest of the Euros would invade the ICC themselves to spare their yankkkee overlords the hassle and bad PR.
TBF I was probably about as obnoxious with it as I can be about anything, but indeed. Panda persecution is so real
He should imitate Abe and go all-in on the moonies cult too, lol
10000% agreed. They don't understand the neverending string of holocausts after holocausts the west inflicts particularly on Muslims, indigenous peoples (and what they back against those in Latin America is even worse than in the north, too- full on death squads), upon Africa, what they have inflicted in living memory (60s, 70s, 80s) and want to return to inflicting on east and southeast and south Asia.
I must admit, while it would be terrible and things should not go that far (unless it's MAD, then let the punishment of the heavens spew radioactive shit all over the Great Satan), if only they knew what it's like. YanKKKeestan and the west will either have to learn empathy or the rest of humanity will inevitably be driven to the point of wiping them out in complete and utter self-defense.

Admittedly, while I was one of those in the OG thread pointing the possible danger out (and seeing it at gross at the time- in hindsight an understatement)- I feel there is also a much broader social stigma against perceived "cheaters" from most parts of society, even amongst women. There were some she/hers saying essentially the same shit in the thread (along the lines of "cheaters get what they deserve," etc).
I don't agree with it, of course- but the sort of "'cheaters' get what they deserve" mentality is very, very common. There's no shortage of women "getting back at" not just the cheaters- but those they cheated with as well- actually it's rather stereotypical and common for many to go after the "homewreckers" even if they didn't know anything. Women can absolutely be misogynist as well, after all. And having a vengeful streak (or schadenfreude at others') is definitely not just a thing for dudes or even straights, admittedly I think that's just a natural human instinct (one perhaps shared with most complex organisms?)- that can be put to good use or humor, but also and far more often than not is put to bad.
Rambling here but- in hindsight it really was incel shit- at the time and in the thread I mentioned it gave me a bad taste and tried to discourage it, but I didn't then see it as such till people really started pointing it out days after the fact. I do think it is just that societally common (and am very glad that Hexbear is taking a principled stand against it), a form of normalized inceldom (well, something that predates the term "incel" for sure). A stand had to and has to be taken against it, but I think it's something that also needs to be (and will be a reoccuring process as new people come in) hammered into peoples heads, the understanding of the consequences, of other people's possible circumstances, of empathy, etc. In some ways I'm not even sure if I agree with permabanning (though don't care overly much- if they wish they can always make a new account and better themselves) some of those posters, but they certainly could not be allowed to spew that shit.
They've suffered some from burgerbrain (same and moreso for eastern Europe+east Germany etc) but the Irish are a particularly decent lot IMO. It's the rare (or rather, only) western (west Euro, Anglo) society that seems to promote a certain sense of human decency rather than Hitlerism (both "conservative" and faux-progressive strains) and supremacism/chauvinism as its identity and culture.
