  Yeah, they don’t even get great PR.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The town and HOA only have two settings for a holiday: Jesus and Troops. I guess Labor days is a "Troops" holiday.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They exist because trashy disrespectful people exist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is a Witcher⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  We are under attack.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Woman refuses to pay restaurant bill⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s really sad to see someone at a very low point in their life.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Walmart actually teaches their employees how to get food stamps⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Many places won’t rent to someone that cannot prove monthly income greater than 3x the rent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is the approach to nudity and sex in films and tv so vastly different between the US and Europe?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  And just like that, suddenly Alles Scheiße is no longer cool, go figure.

  Europeans are the masters of nihilism. It’s kind of honestly surprising your birth rates aren’t lower. We have our own growing culture of nihilism to battle and we certainly don’t need it harder.

  Americans are far from prudes, but there’s a place and a time for nudity. If we allowed public nudity in advertisements, half of our billboards would turn into porn. If you don’t believe me, look at any state that’s legalize marijuana: it seems literally half of all advertising is for weed. Maybe if we didn’t have hyper aggressive market forces we could relax our laws a bit.

  Are you European? Do you think nothing matters? I have been around far too many Europeans that think that way and definitely do not look towards Europe for what I want America to be. Is it the desensitization of nudity? Probably not alone. But it’s one tiny piece of the nihilistic puzzle.

  Look, you have it, you enjoyed it, and now it’s no longer a big deal. In other words, you no longer enjoy it like you once did. We’d rather not go that way. Everything in moderation. We’ll save the cyberpunk dystopia for another day.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is the approach to nudity and sex in films and tv so vastly different between the US and Europe?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I think Americans are mostly terrified of European nihilism and don’t want to fall into the same trap.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's never been about helping people⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve said far milder stuff than this and had my comment removed for incivility.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Choose a major you love⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And how’s that going?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Funny how that works⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Everyone you post it you should put it in quotes and end it with --nonentity for a stylist touch.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Funny how that works⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Do you just post this everywhere?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Well if that isn't just about the most evil thing you could openly admit to doing.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe even alien civilizations look down with disgust!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This crazy assassin character, who doesn't know what shampoo is, somehow would bother shaving her armpits⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you want men to like your body, yes. Personally, I don’t want that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This crazy assassin character, who doesn't know what shampoo is, somehow would bother shaving her armpits⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You made the implied assertion that people need to like it because it’s natural.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This crazy assassin character, who doesn't know what shampoo is, somehow would bother shaving her armpits⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Isn’t that for you to decide?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This crazy assassin character, who doesn't know what shampoo is, somehow would bother shaving her armpits⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Natural body is a polite way of framing ungroomed. Men nor women like seeing poor hygiene. Some types of poor hygiene are seen as worse than others. Dirty hair? Sorta gross. Body hair? Disgusting.

  We’ll start by reducing your disability checks.
