Grimdude posted:Why would you evolve to make yourself taste like something sweet and delicious that's known for being widely loved this time of year? Or is it supposed to be funny because the shark's all "you kidding me?" and is gonna eat the fish because his evolutionary trait is stupid? There's actually a backlash specifically against pumpkin spice flavors in some circles. I think it's an anti-Starbucks thing, with their pumpkin spice lattes. I know that sounds ridiculous.

It feels more like an over exposure thing than specifically an anti-Starbucks thing, honestly.

It comes across more like an anti-millennial thing most of the time.

I know that sounds ridiculous. "Thing is popular? HEY EVERYBODY, I DISLIKE THING!" Doesn't matter if it's pumpkin spice, Game of Thrones, Rick and Morty, whatever - There's someone who has to point out how much cooler they are than everyone else because they aren't a fan of Thing.

Owning slaves would be even more brave since it's been frowned upon for more than like fifteen loving seconds. Tinsley should try it! edit: I mean like, going up to a white guy and a black guy walking on the street and saying "how much for your Negro?" That would take some serious bravery so he should be all for it. Samurai Sanders fucked around with this message at 07:08 on Oct 9, 2017 |

When the Steelers decided to not come out for the national Anthem, he decided to. He's actually embarrassed by all the attention he got (and I'm sure his teammates are pissed at him too).

Yeah as your article points out, he wasn't supposed to be alone on the field at all but others were delayed and unable to make it out onto the field before the anthem started. So he stood there all alone and now feels completely miserable for making everyone else look bad. So good job cartoonist.

I’ve been beaten and kicked in the face repeatedly for being gay. Excuse if I don’t give a gently caress about millionaire lawyers losing a cushy gig for not caring about my rights as a human being until there was no danger in it. You loving dick.

I'd like to ask anyone who feels offended by kneeling for the anthem just how fragile their patriotism and love for this country is. If they were as America and Freedom loving as they say they are then they shouldn't care if a flag was burned right in front of them. We are supposed to be more than a flag or anthem and most of these fuckers spent the entirety of 2016 talking about how America is bad and needs to become great again. loving snowflakes.

Why do you seem so convinced that supporting BASIC GODDAMN RIGHTS before it magically reached a tipping point in public support would've cost elections, instead of, I dunno, galvanizing people that much sooner by showing that both parties aren't the same?

Because I am the slightest bit familiar with how reality works, and understand that the people who insist both parties are the same will never ever be swayed by reality? Also, you're using words you heard somewhere else wrong. Galvanizing doesn't mean "magically altering 37% of the American public to instantly change their opinions on a dime with no cause." But I am just sure that if someone had tried to turn an election into a referendum on gay marriage, it would have always magically made all America vote against the side opposing gay marriage, and wouldn't be the sole time in the last quarter of a century the Republicans won the popular vote.

Samurai Sanders posted:I appreciate this guy writing this and changing as a person but I'm still no closer to understanding what it feels like to hurt at something related to the flag and anthem. I read about the flag burning etc stuff in school but it was just weird words with no feeling of reality to me. Maybe it's like calling someones Favorite Video Game, Anime or Waifu poo poo. It's that but for the masses?

Public displays of patriotism are like public displays of piety: a show, a facade, a lie. They focus on the superficial because there is no substance to be found in them. They wear their morality on their skin because there is none in their heart. They want you to believe them on their word, not on their deeds. The ones who make the biggest effort at coercing others into Pavlovian "respectful" attitudes towards the flag or the Bible are the ones most desperate to make sure nobody ever look at the skeletons in their closet. Behind every public patriot is a traitor; behind every public devout is a pervert.

No. Patriotism evolved from tribalism and probably have biological anchors: is a instict. Theres nothing wrong with following your instincts if nobody is hurt. Theres nothing "wrong" with patriotism. Is only that is irrational.

I'm going to assume some semblance of good faith on the part of at least one of the cartoonists who brings up "hey, what about (Or in general, what the gently caress is supposed to be the contradiction between "hey, you want more sensible gun laws? But what about black people shooting each other?")
