I mean, you know that horrific levels of sexism such as FGM and honor killings and marital rape don't... make smaller and less violent levels of sexism like the wage gap, women automatically being assumed to not know their poo poo in specific industries based entirely off of being a woman, and the way mass media reflects and conditions people to believe basic sexist societal doctrine disappear, right? They can both be problems, friend. The problem only arises when people focus on the latter stuff (because it directly impacts them, most likely) and don't divert any resources to the former stuff.

I'm just a diaper shutting retard but the phrase 'virtue signalling' tips your hand in the same way that saying 'reverse racism' would. conservatives do this same thing when they bitch about the war on xmas... I guess, except that sexism exists and the war on xmas doesn't? I don't know, whatever. until later , I remain, - the diaper making GBS threads retard

Also, I enjoy the heck out of this thread for the weird/bizarre stuff, but seeing someone come back with an update that shows that they're at least considering taking some steps in the right direction is pretty drat dope. I thought for sure the next time we heard about logic dude it would be in a local news story where a monotone anchor would explain that the newly-convicted multiple felon was a frequent visitor to a suspected terror/child abduction/satanist website called something is awful dot com. Keep up the good work, duder. The most recent confessor would benefit from following your example.

There's no way mad at social media goon can be that upset based on the Facebook posting of their acquaintances. Like seriously, who the gently caress cares that much. There must be something more going on there. Search your soul and find out what's really bothering you, cause once you figure that out, you should be able to observe someone's petty opinion and just laugh and shake it off.

For all the bitching about Ghostbusters i enjoyed it. It wasn't a cinematic masterpiece, or even up to par with the originals, but it was fun. Movies today are mostly fun tho, if you come at them from the angle that it's a creature feature

I have a confession. I really didn't think Suicide Squad or Batman vs Superman were that bad. They weren't very good, and were certainly too long, but there seems to be a lot of hate for these movies I really don't understand, did people think they were going to be cinema classics? Also, Ben Affleck is a better Bruce Wayne than Christian Bale.food court bailiff posted:imagine being such a broken person you get all pissy and smug like this over someone using a made up buzzword in a slightly different way than you, lmao It's dumb word man, and it's weird to try and psychoanalyze people based on stupid posts.

I never saw BvS, but I can confirm that Christian Bale was not a good Bruce Wayne. I liked his Batman but his Bruce needed work. He's too weird and stilted of a person to really communicate "idle rich playboy" particularly well

Also, Ben Affleck is a better Bruce Wayne than Christian Bale. Batman vs Superman was actually good and thank gently caress it was a new look at Batman other than a rehash of what every other movie in the past thirty years has done with the character. Suicide Squad wasn't great but was tons of fun to watch. So yeah my confession is I think Zack Snyder is a genuinely good director and I like goofy movies. quote:It's dumb word man, and it's weird to try and psychoanalyze people based on stupid posts.

Zack Snyder has a really good visual sense, and I think he is pretty good when he adapts other people's stuff. Watchman was really good, dumping the pirate comic stuff, and changing the ending were absolutely the right decision. Another movie confession: Willow is a better and way more fun film than any of the Lord of the Rings or Hobbit movies. (I made two posts about it, the second one I admit was pretty smug).
