So in your comment why did you call out just the new PM? And the LDP has dominated since 1955, so Japan did quite well under them too, for many years.
- Comment on Anon is Japanese 5 days ago:
I just looked it up and 26 out of the nation’s 28 presidents have all been LDP. They have dominated since 1955.
In other words, Japan has also seen tremendous growth under the LDP. So it seems a bit reductionist to judge the party based on the performance of the past 10 years.

That 30% is totally justified as a platform fee imo
and yet everybody hates on Apple’s 30% cut…
Why would valve “punish” someone for doing well?
maybe it could be like how rich people are taxed more? (at least if rich people paid their taxes in the first place)
- Comment on Always bring an Emma 1 week ago:
Ok obviously the hot tub did not “know” the ex-wife was cheating on the husband.
The hot tub just wanted him for themselves. So they started acting petty to the ex-wife. It was only a coincidence that the ex-wife turned out to be cheating.
Then the ex-wife leaves. The hot tub is happy. Finally, just them and the man.
Then the man starts talking about some “Emma”. The hot tub sees the way he talks about her. But they aren’t sure which Emma it is. So they start acting up whenever an Emma comes around.
Pretty simply explanation if you ask me.

Jokes can still denigrate and disrespect people. People are valid to want to be respected…
Theyre also entitled to saying a joke from a comedians set sucks and treats them as a vulnerable group poorly too…
And I totally agree. My point was that “it’s problematic” or “X person was offended” is not the only dimension to this. Comedians still make problematic and offensive jokes, even despite many waves of cancel culture. People still enjoy those jokes. Because sometimes a joke is not problematic enough to matter. If a million people find a joke funny and 1 person is offended, is the joke fine? What about 1000:1? Everybody has different thresholds. But if we simply say “if a joke offends anybody, then it should not be said”, then that would erase a very large portion of comedy. I don’t think we want that.
To be clear, I think it’s fine to call out a joke as offensive. But I also think it’s fine for other people to believe that a joke is harmless. Both opinions are valid and can be voiced. These things can only be gauged at the population level.

If this post said he looks gay
Actually I still see tons of posts in the shitposting community that poke fun at gays.
If we went by your rules then all 1 hour comedy specials that make problematic jokes (aka all of them) would be taken down.
- Comment on We love hate! 2 weeks ago:
I never said that something being popular meant it wouldn’t cause harm. I’m talking about potential vs outcome. This joke might cause harm, and it might not. And that just because it has the potential to cause harm, does not mean it will actually cause harm.
And unfortunately, due to millions of confounding factors, it’s almost impossible to track down whether or not one specific action had a harmful outcome. So it comes down to people’s best judgement. All you can do is point out the problematic nature (which some people did) and see what everybody else thinks.
But just because people disagree, does not mean that they don’t acknowledge the problematic nature. They just might not think it’s significant.

See my edit. I misremembered. Turns out I was remembering some of the comments I read, not the OG meme itself.
Leaving it up for the audience to judge is how blatantly racist and discriminatory jokes get told all the time in certain places and people think that’s an acceptable world view to have.
Give me a 1 hour special of any comedian, and I will point out how some of their jokes can be problematic. Sometimes it’s just not problematic enough to end up causing any harm.
- Comment on We love hate! 2 weeks ago:
As explained earlier, the OG meme already acknowledged that it could be problematic. As jokes often are. Whether or not something could be a problem, and whether or not it actually becomes a problem, are two separate things.
So yes, it could be a problem. But it also could be insignificant. It’s up to the audience to judge.

Well I don’t think they “look trans” because honestly I don’t really know what that would look like
- Comment on We love hate! 2 weeks ago:
I actually put “look trans” in quotes because that’s what you were telling people to do, and I was saying no, I don’t see it.
In fact the OG meme is evidence that you can’t actually tell when people look trans, because obviously that guy isn’t actually trans.
they seem to say the bulk of you are shitty people.
Disagreement is normal. Calling people shitty just for disagreeing with you, seems a bit unhealthy though.
- Comment on We love hate! 2 weeks ago:
No I don’t think these ones “look trans” on the right. I think what you’re trying to say is that the original meme is problematic. But the OG meme already admitted that. It’s fairly standard for comedians to make “problematic” jokes. And it’s up to the audience to judge if the laughs are worth it. In this case, based on the upvotes on the OG meme, and the downvotes on your post, it seems like you’re in the minority.

If all you care about is meeting commitments, the US doesn’t have any more commitments so I guess they are doing fine?? The commitments for China were low because that was all they could get China to agree to. These commitments don’t mean anything

You mentioned the US and Canada, not the EU? And nothing about emissions per GDP? Maybe stop lying?
You clearly just think China is doing “good enough”. Fine. And I think the US and EU are doing “good enough” too and the oil companies in OP are not a problem
