Not even slightly, but I don’t particularly feel like going on about how no human creation is truly original, waxing interminable over the distinction between symbols and concepts or, you know, defending a nazi right now.
But in a way, we kinda have to. I mean, are the nazis today the same as the nazis which started this movement or are they a separate entity and should be treated as such? Are all the nazi groups today are their own inventions and should they be granted the so-called ‘honour’ of having invented their particular brand of ‘doppelnazism’? Or should we reserve that for when one particular branch starts calling itself something else and only looks to have been inspired by nazism, but is something else entirely?
Yeah, history is a continuous chain reaction. And the problem with fixating on specific points as the start of something has the disadvantages of ignoring everything which lead up to it and disagreeing on which point to put an end to it.
With your point of view, nazism ended with the second world war and what we suffer now is something different. A new invention as you say.
With my point of view, the dude didn’t invent shit and just stole what was already there and now we’re dealing with more of the same, the major difference being there’s no new brand of terror to set them apart visibly.

I have really bad news if you think this wasn’t exactly what happened when they wrote the bible…
If you’re agreeing he didn’t invent shit, I’d recommend amending your comment saying that he did. No need to add legitimacy where there isn’t any. No pressure though.
As for gog, the deed is done and out in the world. Whatever they do from here on out, it will be with this burden attached.

He didn’t invent shit. He copied a rune and appropriated it diagonally. S, N, Z whatever, it’s the same damn thing. Sowilo.
Ppl keep praising his ass here like he wrote the bible or some shit when all he did was take what was already there and twisted it.

They also say you can’t not be traumatized. Trauma is how we learn to do and be better.

Lack of Karens asking for a manager. A standing army and a leader willing to start some shit can go a long way when it’s time to split the spoils.

The “work hard” isn’t meant as capitalist propaganda. Well, at least it didn’t start as such.
It was first and foremost an advice given from themselves because drawing manga and anime was seen poorly and a dead-end job. The creators faced a lot of opposition and few opportunities, so every success was heartfelt and attributed to them working hard for their dreams and not giving up.
Despite entering the mainstream having diluted the situation these words were meant for, it’s important we don’t forget that the first creators were pioneers who dedicated their entire lifetimes to their craft.

Bish please. It was mainstream as fuck before social media.
Naruto runs were being a fucking airplane, complete with sound and spittle. A dumbass kid’s game probably as old as the Wright brothers…
Every fucking generation in the last century has been playing it without anyone giving a damn, ffs.

It’s like they want to lose to their far-right opponents. Or they’re no longer opponents suddenly?
- Comment on Why is it that when the graphics driver freaks out in your browser when watching a video, the page always turns this specific shade of green? 2 months ago:
It’s the green screen which allows blending, melding, switching and superimposing layers. You see, the way it works is that I don’t know, but it got you reading this far and wasted a few moments of your time which could have been spent doing something else, like gardening.
But really the answer is probably because it’s very nearly in the middle of the VGA color palette.

Shitty pay, crappy hours, being surrounded by the dead all the time… You either gotta love the job or end up loving the dead…
Some jobs need to be done, but who’s to do them? Can one be completely sane and handle this kind of life without issue for years on end? Most of the people employed tell themselves it’s just a job and spend their time dodging the reality of handling the dead all the time, but a few… well… they go all in.
Normal is a state of mind that has us come to grips with that which is beyond our control.

I disagree. It may take a long time for a food product to enter mainstream consumption, but I can assure you some people will try to eat even poisonous potato berries as soon as they’re first found.
- Comment on Knowing that boomers had the "hate my wife/husband" humor because they were rushed to marry borderline strangers and didn't believe in therapy but can't prove it 2 months ago:
For most of known human history, marriage - or its equivalent - has been seen as an obligation. To marry freely or not marry at all are modern sensibilities.

Life is an incorrigible gambler and every creation is a risk it’s not afraid to take. Win or lose, it will keep betting, not because it has a goal, but for the love of the game.

I’ve recently come to understand that it’s more of a gacha loot box where traits from several generations are being rolled and the rarest rolls aren’t necessarily the best.
