If it were the people in power would actually listen to people with knowledge, like President Camacho did.

Its not necessarily that they cant, more that they dont want to.

That’s a load-bearing hump.

I would not look at billboards around my state, then…

Because if there wasn’t a patriarchy they’d be able to just be people like everyone else.

I just want you to know that I’m downvoting you because the way you express your opinion is facile and simplistic, and honestly helps further the division you purport to critique. Not because I necessarily disagree with the general sentiment you believe you’re trying to convey.

One word answers to problems are easy, but they rarely accurate enough to actually help solve the issue and generally are used to push people to extreme opinions. It’s much less effort to just spout a catchphrase to push people towards your own personal goal rather than get into an actually beneficial discussion about the ins and outs of how life actually works and how to solve real world problems.

If it weren’t part of a trend of jokes I see on here and the specific reference to anime then I might agree.

Are we back to “Being a geek makes you a virgin” jokes? I thought we left those on reddit…

In the same way that no one is a billionaire and very few people are multi-millionaires.

Daenerys was part of the wheel, she just wanted to be the one turning it.

One hundred percent he is galvanized by each complaint. His kind of people find people disagreeing with him as a sign of success.

Yeah, but with regulatory capture they outsourced air-distribution to private companies.

Kind of like all the people who comment on the state of the world but never really do anything about it.

“cannibalistic humanoid aboveground dwellers”

Hrm…

As rich and interesting as Skyrim? Turn over a rock and find any number of open world games that can match or exceed it.

As moddable as Skyrim? Now that’s a taller order…

He always seemed like the “Not Poilievre” candidate. Not someone you actually want, but the one you’d have if you had to pick between two.
