rapeface posted:Episode 241 - Hot Couch Nation feat. Stavros Halkias & Matt V. Brady If your friend is any kind of Tabletop geek, any of the RPG episodes are golden starters. Plus, the argument about rolling a d3 will never not be the funniest thing ever. Followed closely by utterly failing at how to read a d4.

Gripweed posted:It's come up a couple times recently, but at the time he didn't say anything about it on Chapo. I imagine he thought doing so would just be doing drama for no reason @Henchman of Santa Yeah, that's what I thought, I just didn't think he'd actually be polite about it. Probably the right choice though. Also, after listening to the episode where Virgil got kicked out of the Pod Save America recording, I will say I'll never stop laughing at him referring to them as "our sister podcast."

I've forgotten the specifics of the "rolling a D3" bit now but I laughed my rear end off at the time. Virgil gives his NPCs some very long and funny monologues as well

It's a bit of a stretch to take Amber's "the gays" as some sort of transphobic virtue signal and not how it's usually invoked, as a slangy shorthand for the broader queer community as in "us, the gays"

people mad at cumtown's association with cth are really just mad at themselves for having to face the painful reality that maybe the podcast they see so much of themselves in isn't actually as representative of their viewpoint as much as they thought. i think there's a lot of overlap of these people and those who purity test others out of socialist movements anyway going back to the ct thread now

It's not a very good take, but should she be cancelled for it? She ends it by saying that the economic problems that lead to migration in the first place need to be addressed, which is true.

You really don't have to dig deep to get to her catholic social conservatism.

She doesn't say its a mixed bag, but flatly a loss of Ireland's traditional (highly socially conservative and rigidly Catholic) culture. She does say that liberalism is replacing the old conservative order, but where does she praise the latter in any way? I think this excerpt from the article kind of sums up what she's getting at. quote:Our national literary canon, from Edna O’Brien to James Joyce, tells the story of this desire to break free from the repressive post-independence Catholic nationalist regime and most of our establishment today, in the media, in academia and in cultural institutions broadly, were shaped by this struggle. To many in the ‘68 generation, like Lennon, cultural liberalisation and the struggle for equality went hand in hand. The long struggle for abortion rights in Ireland, which has now become a piece of liberal common sense across the western world, was fought for for decades by the socialist and radical left. Today however the presumed link between the two projects of Lennon’s 1960s left, the achievement of liberal freedoms and economic equality, can no longer be considered axiomatic.

She concludes criticising the 'illusion of choice and freedom' offered by 'liberal cosmopolitanism', again, making no distinction between the economic liberalism and social liberalism discussed in the article. If this isn't a thinly veiled attack on Ireland's recent change in social attitudes I'd suggest she not write an article lumping them together liberal capitalism as a whole before declaring the entire project to be an act of cultural imperialism.

Slanderer posted:You have severe reading comprehension deficiencies No, she's just saying the quiet part quiet by insiniuating the massive grassroots movements that led to the decriminalisation of abortion and the legalisation of gay marriage were actually foisted upon her country by liberal elites and offer a false promise of freedom inescapably linked to neoliberal economics, rather than just plainly stating she hates the SJWs and their degenerate agenda. quote:In our limited and shrinking national public discourse, closely monitored for deviant thought by a culture of militant conformism on the very social media platforms that champion this new vision of progress, we slavishly mimic US liberalism. I mean come on, what 'deviant thoughts' being silenced by a 'culture of militant conformism' do you think she's refering to here? It's practically Dave Rubin level 'I'm being silenced by the regressive left!!' poo poo

To be frank, her being the internet denizen cab driver to Amber's Thomas Friedman makes a ton of sense. The PA speaker audio of this just makes Will's "FIGHT" sound better and we all learn that Virgil is a Legion New Vegas playthrough guy. Alan Funt as a good Cornell Alumni? That's... bold!
