  Dear God you could absolutely ruin someone’s life

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let's play this game again⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  There was a cowboy bebop episode kinda like this. Sympathy for the devil I think

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who needs it?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No thanks. Lemmy isn’t great by any means but social media is poison and a direct cause of the current state of affairs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“This script is fantastic. Let’s get Julia Roberts to play Harriet Tubman.”⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Or you could just give me examples of famous figures of the ethnicities you mentioned being represented as black. I’ve yet to see Miyamoto Musashi, Santa Ana, Buddha, Alexander the Great, or Saladin played by Morgan Freeman or Idris Elba

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“This script is fantastic. Let’s get Julia Roberts to play Harriet Tubman.”⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ok where is all this black washing of Asian, arab, latino, etc figures? If anything they get white washed as much as black figures do or are reduced to stereotypes with zero depth.

  Only thing that comes to mind is Jada Pinkett’s shitty Netflix series that no one watched

  I dunno. I feel if you live long enough you’d eventually become wealthy. If not you’re just incompetent

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Don't forget where we came from and what shaped us as a species. The Jungle.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah I think most ppl honestly don’t care. We don’t even care about each other as the western world’s entire lifestyle is based on the exploitation of other countries and their ppl.

  You expect someone to suddenly give a damn about a cow 500 miles away?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Multiverse⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s comments like this that make me glad I know how to read the room

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon gets rid of crackheads⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I dunno. Family rained on by stray bullets printed everywhere will REALLY drive the rent down

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can't throw me off the scent⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Michigan still does 10 cents a bottle

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Looking for answers⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You can say that about almost everywhere white explores showed up

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Proving them wrong": After raising minimum wage, California has more fast-food jobs than ever⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Who would’ve thought if you paid ppl they’d actually work

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨O Yea⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is unironically one of the best examples character acting I’ve ever seen.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Call the police, he’s on drugs': But the worker was dying from heatstroke.⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Middle to upper class white Anglo Saxton protestant?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Freeloaders⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Because of America’s greatest fear, that if we do something that benefits people, we might accidently help the wrong people. People who aren’t even white.

  You just explained how unions fell apart, pensions stopped being a thing, schools lost funding, college education went up, and social safety nets disappeared.

  I constantly come back to this quote from LBJ

  “If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A fair trade⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  SUCCESS

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Both have gotten way worse⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Bigger sizes automatically come with piss

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Daredevil’ Hits Reset Button as Marvel Overhauls Its TV Business⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Is anyone else just tired of the MCU? It’s just become so…Disney. So safe and unwilling to take chances.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is everyone so giddy about the flooding thay happened at burning man?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Census data does kinda prove the healthy wealth gap between attendees and the average American

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The salary a single person needs to get by in every U.S. state⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  If there’s one thing I’ve learned from the pandemic is Americans calls ppl heros so when don’t want to actually pay them. See teachers, retail workers, nurses, doctors, EMTs, soldiers, first responders, mail carriers, delivery drivers, I can keep going

  Man in the picture looks tired of her dumbass takes
