- Comment on What art style you want to reproduce? 12 hours ago:
I’m not certain if there’s actually a name for it, but I’m rather partial to this style I see all over the place in which a human artist uses physical media to create something which evokes emotions in the audience.

Ask yourself what you think your country would look like if the Internet was hyper fixated on every single bad example anyone could find within your borders.

How does followers of a religion equal to respect
Christianity isn’t like Islam where you’re disowned (and often murdered) for the crime of leaving. People who were born into a Christian family but don’t respect the religion can simply choose not to follow it anymore (with the notable exception of a few cults, but they hardly make up the whole). And once again, even many non-believers still have respect for the message of love and peace which Jesus championed.
- Comment on We Shouldn’t Have to Work This Hard 4 days ago:
I’d be working much harder if it wasn’t illegal to do the things I actually want to do with my life, like building my own shelters.
- Comment on The Tesla Backlash Is Biblical 5 days ago:
We’re talking about how many people respect the Bible, not whether or not it’s legitimate.
- Comment on The Tesla Backlash Is Biblical 5 days ago:
I’m sorry, but social media does not give you an accurate picture of the real world.
- Comment on The Tesla Backlash Is Biblical 5 days ago:
It is by more people than it isn’t. By a lot.
- Comment on The Tesla Backlash Is Biblical 5 days ago:
Mobs in the bible weren’t exactly seen in a positive light.
- Comment on What mythologies have poor representation in media, in your opinion? 6 days ago:
… I think you’re confusing the false god “Forethought” with the real God from gnostic writings.
- Comment on What mythologies have poor representation in media, in your opinion? 1 week ago:
If your understanding of Christianity is based upon how well mainstream Christianity understands it, then you don’t actually understand it, only the warped form that it takes after thousands of years of infighting and political manoeuvring. For example, did you know that at one point it was actually taboo to depict Christ as a human?
- Comment on What mythologies have poor representation in media, in your opinion? 1 week ago:
Christianity is virtually always represented by those who either don’t understand it, or are deliberately slandering it.
- Comment on (Fan Game) CS:Legacy - Official Announcement Trailer 1 week ago:
Same here. Played a ton of CSGO, but CS2 just failed to hit for me.

Thanks for the tip!
- Comment on The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remake Will Reportedly Be Revealed Soon, and Released Not Long After That 1 week ago:
Yea, fan projects (when there is actual work put into it) are often significantly better than AAA remakes.

Oh man, I can’t wait for them to reveal it, so I can finally know about it.
- Comment on How do we know this is actually Earth, and not just some torture chamber in Hell and we are just being punished? 4 weeks ago:
How do you know it isn’t actually Eden, but you just focus on all the wrong things to see it?
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Bingo.
The only people you actually end up reaching are people with good intentions who don’t need to hear it in the first place. “Stop taking advantage of people” is a message which can usually be dispensed only by force. The moral panic over “toxic masculinity” did very little to affect those who actually caused problems, but a great deal to disenfranchise those who would actually make bad actors stop taking advantage of others.
- Comment on Does the US really have no instruments in case a newly elected president immediatelly and openly exposes he's a nazi? 2 months ago:
Well the country didn’t previously have a legion of mouth breathing retards screaming at the top of their lungs about micro-aggressions and declaring that the nation was illegitimate.
- Comment on What's the endgame when the rich have all the money? 2 months ago:
Yup. It’s going to suck a lot.
That still won’t ever make their stupid idea actually function in reality.
- Comment on What's the endgame when the rich have all the money? 2 months ago:
You’re supposed to recognize their undisputed superiority and turn yourselves into automatons for their pleasure, having no other options available to you.
- Comment on What's the deal with male loneliness? 2 months ago:
There’s been a concerted effort over the last several decades to push a men vs women dynamic online, and most men don’t buy into it, so it’s really just been people shitting all over men without consequence.
- Comment on Why is it that clasped hands tends to be the norm for praying? 🙏 2 months ago:
Can’t speak for anyone else, but I personally like the feeling of two equal and opposite forces pushing against each other, cancelling each other out and creating a firm, unchanged, structure no matter how much force is applied. I do the same while doing squats sometimes, and it feels more stable.
- Comment on GOG reportedly suffering from staff turnover and poor management: “Current business model is likely running out of steam” 2 months ago:
You obviously don’t even know how it works.
when the servers are down, you’re fucked regardless.
As long as you keep the files you don’t have to access their servers to play it again. That’s exactly the same as even physical media. It’s not like a company will send you a new DVD for free if you throw out the one you bought.
- Comment on GOG reportedly suffering from staff turnover and poor management: “Current business model is likely running out of steam” 2 months ago:
when their servers are offline, you can’t download it anymore…
I have no idea what else you would be expecting?

I thought the sarcasm was obvious enough. Guess not.

Sounds like a good reason to seize greater control of the Internet.
- Comment on If we're living in a simulation, why would the simulation creators allow the sims to ponder and speculate whether or not they live in a simulation? 3 months ago:
Like a limited ‘fake’ world edifice structured through legal fictions like money, which attempts to assert that it is significantly more pervasive than it actually is, through stories like The Matrix, to instill a sense of hopelessness upon anyone who even considers not submitting to it.
- Comment on When leftists say "landlord are parasites" or similar dislike of landlords, do they also mean the people that own like a couple of houses as an investment, or only the big landlords? 3 months ago:
It’s literally propaganda straight out of the Chinese Communist Party’s playbook, and useful idiots repeat it for them.
- Comment on Why does it seem most people, mainly conservatives, against Trans people? Unless I am wrong I never heard of one shooting up a school church or whatever. The ones I have met have been pretty cool. 4 months ago:
Largely because it’s very obviously being used as a political propaganda tool, and any criticism at all is being treated as a horrific crime.

That might actually be the most suspicious possible scenario you could have come up with.
