It never fails, every roast attempted towards a woman without any solid ammo like buck teeth or a hunchback is the worst thing and just so sad.

Every commenter in that sub uses the same generic "I bet you're really sad on the inside" insult while imagining they are Hannibal Lecter cracking the OP's psyche wide open.

At least funny to other people. That roast was just sad. There were other things they could have said.

Yeah. I've had guys use that on me before. They can't respond when you're like "Yeah, no poo poo. Tell me something I didn't know. " Like, the idea a woman could be well-aware of the fact she's looking for validation and has the brokebrains just seems to shock them every time.

What made roasts funny in the past is that they were generally specific jokes about a persons flaws and features. The jokes were personal, the people knew each other, and there was a sense of camaraderie.

The reddit ones are strangers so they are just generic one liners trying to out edge each other.

I’m a little depressed. I signed up for next door after hearing so much about it in this thread, and pretty much this is all I’ve seen.

Lazy misogyny is actually deep truth about the world than must be presented seriously, with as many words as possible else people might not understand that a conventionally attractive woman putting out a picture of herself and asking for commentary on an internet forum wants attention.

Has anyone ever tried to do a meta-roast, insulting the poor joke skills and general misunderstanding of what a roast is on one of these things?

If he meant anyone other than Jews, wouldn't he clarify? Also, considering the context, I can't think of anyone else he could be referring to. Like, there is no context beyond talking about the reliability of mainstream media, then saying "Well, do you know who owns the media????" so yeah.

Not to defend musk, but I'm pretty sure he was saying powerful people own the media to respond to the person saying the media defends the common people against the powerful

The generous reading is that media is controlled by powerful people. In that case he's not an anti-Semite, just an idiot who doesn't believe himself to be among the powerful.

And he did it in the most dogwhistley manner possible. Musk's a smart guy, he knows what he said and why he's now getting a bunch of replies with Nazi memes in them.

Has he immediately responded to the deluge with something on the level of 'gently caress Nazis, that's not what I meant, Nazis are all cunts who need to goose-step into a wood-chipper', a.k.a. something that would actually show him to realize a mistake and that he has a shred of actual humanity?

Or just let the comment stand?

I mean, it's not like people didn't already have plenty of reasons to think Musk was a fuckstick. This latest temper tantrum is only the latest expression of his "I grew up as a wealthy white person during Apartheid and thus should be allowed to do whatever the hell I want without consequences" attitude.

In the comments I learn that libertarians believe Robin Hood is about how taxation is theft and that he reclaims taxes from the state to return them to the citizens or something.
