It might have something to do with his day job. Or because he felt stifled by the anti-discriminatory zeitgeist in cosmopolitan areas in Sweden, though I don't know how much more socially conservative Ireland is. I've heard it's culturally more traditionalist in religious matters in many regions, though of course that might be wrong.

Maybe Ireland has more sweeping green vistas for him to flex in front of? Honestly I don't think I've ever taken much time to look at pictures of Sweden

Ireland's sweeping green vistas are really rugged and handsome, though I've mostly been on the west coast where it's hilly, damp and moody a lot of the time. I think it would be easier for him to find green & sweeping yet rugged & handsome vistas by just driving a car for an hour or so out of any major settlement in Sweden though.

Yardbomb posted:I've said it before but it's weird, there's something to The Golden One that makes me feel sorry for them almost more than anything, they feel like a dorky rear end LARP'er who could've been a fun person had they not fell down the nazi hole and become what they are. Really that's anyone who gets suckered into the ~alt-right~ poo poo though, a bunch of people who for whatever misguided reasons, bought into propaganda being sold by fuckin hucksters like Spencer and their ilk. I'd like to believe eventually people like this could be deprogrammed like you do with any horrible cult, but until then I keep feeling split, where on one hand they're poo poo and I hate them for letting themselves ever be duped by the nu-nazis in the first place and the other where I wish they could be helped and further people dissuaded from ever going the same way. Swedish Richard Spencer (this guy) and The Golden One are literally gym buddies so I'm not so sure that was ever in the cards.

TGO just seems like a dork, the type who fetishizes pastoral lifestyle, although calling him a dork might lessens the danger of the poo poo is pandering to.

I'll watch it, because I know what y'all are asking. How can this guy hate a warmonger president and also love the Romans, whose history is almost entirely war? Answer: Because the warmonger president criticised daddy Trump without criticising Obama (who is not currently in office). The approval rating polls are wrong now but were right under Bush, but even if they're right now, uh shut up. Also Bush II wrecked the world, not Cheney, and 9/11 was an inside job organised by Bush I. Apparently leftists were accusing Bush of being a Russian plant but have since erased the posts because of Obama. And anything that isn't Bush's fault is FDR's fault and Obama didn't fix anything. Bush is so evil that he is not allowed to disagree with Trump, and the leftists shouldn't be agreeing with him when he says Trump. And finally, throw in a mention of Hillary Clinton also being evil, because why the gently caress not. Basically this guy's the sort of idiot who thinks that the President is royalty and nothing they do has any context. Exactly the kind of idiot whose brain is now breaking trying to fit Trump, who he still unquestioningly supports, into that childish understanding of the world.

There's most often only two types of use for "millennial" when it's being said unironically, either it's olds whining about THE YOUNGINS being responsible for some new thing failing or it's shitheels trying to use it like "These essjew snowflake nu male MILLENNIALS amirite" despite most of them also being in that age range. So a lot of the time it's pretty much just a dogwhistle for being sadmad that young people are getting so much more liberal. Yardbomb fucked around with this message at 01:25 on Oct 21, 2017 |

Is there a technical term for these kind of things were they compare [current things] negatively to [old things], while not taking into account that they are exposed to basically all the [current things] but naturally only got exposed to the [old things] that were above-average and/or survived? Because I'm pretty sure even during the 70s there were a lot of summer blockbusters, light comedies and other mainstream movies that are just as forgettable as whatever bad comic or toy movie puts asses in seats nowadays.

BigRed0427 posted:Edit. I wanna write a thing for trans girls who have JUST realized they are trans. Basically a guide on how not to panic over the revelation and what to expect and what steps they could take to, for example, minor things they can do to alievieate gender dysphoria. A big one of them is “Get the gently caress off 4chan!” This exchange is giving me context for a friend-of-friend transgirl I've been getting asked about by our common link for a while. She has the weirdest loving political ideas and I think she might be getting it from 4chan. She's ancap rather than nazi (currently...) but also seems to get her sense of bodily aesthetic from dickgirl hentai... Which I mean, is in itself fine if it's what you like but that's what makes me think she's getting her politics from there as well. I guess I figured given how much of a shithole the place is that transpeople wouldn't want to hang out there but there you go. OwlFancier fucked around with this message at 20:09 on Oct 21, 2017 |

So a lot of the time it's pretty much just a dogwhistle for being sadmad that young people are getting so much more liberal. It also plays into the whole "I took the red pill" self-aggrandizing nature of the alt-right movement - they view themselves as badass counter-culture straight-shooting intellectuals, standing head and shoulders above the basement-dwelling, feelings-having, restaurant-ruining masses of Pajama Boys of the millennial generation. To them, "millennial" is legitimately a slur - but they're One of the Good Ones so it doesn't apply to them individually. Unfortunately, that worldview is a pretty easy avenue for radicalization, too - if you truly believe that the rest of your generation is degenerate and "devolved", all it takes is someone saying "Y'know, at least the Germans stood up and fought for their traditions!" and you're already kind of on board.
