sharkytm posted:Cleetus McFarland is a gigantic shithead if anyone was wondering. Big get-together during COVID which turned into a super spreader event, plus numerous dog whistles in his videos. Yeah, I was a big Cleetus fan at first, but man, he showed pure chud core during covid. gently caress him. I really like the guy that's on I Do Cars. If I find out he's a chud, I'm gonna be bummed.

BigPaddy posted:The problem is that things are so polarized that if you are the sane ones in the middle pointing out the world is shades of grey both sides just lay it on you in the brief moments they are not railing on each other. The main difference is that one side, the ultra right wing chuds, have news networks funded by advertising and backing from billionaires to push their poison. And that's where the magic of a culture war happens. People are upset on "both sides,"when the reality is that the powers that be have gotten us all charged up about left/right, but in reality, a lot of people are hurting on both sides, and that number is going to increase. Meanwhile, the corporate overlords and billionaires get exactly what they want, which includes massive tax breaks and corporate welfare. Right now, Intel is holding a semiconductor plant hostage in Columbus, Ohio. Why? Because congress hasn't completed the seiconductor legislature that would give Intel billions of dollars to make the plant that they will then profit from. Maddeningly, this news came the day after the local government granted Intel a 30 year tax abatement on the property of 100%. Until the class war comes, we're hosed.

It finally happened. I've watched the YouTube channel "Neutral Drop" for years. It is a channel run by dead-car dealing brothers from New York that absolutely thrash the poo poo out of their acquisitions. From neutral drops, to rocking horses, to no-mercy-reversies.... they've done god's work in thrashing the poo poo out of everything. And I've always felt that they probably were chuds, but they always kept their content politics-free. Until today, when one of the brothers actively screamed "I love Trump." Aaaaaaaaaand.... that's an unsubscribe and sad face.

I've despised Clarkson's politics for a long time, but this may be the event that pushes me to no longer watch TGT. I have tried to separate the "art from the artist," but he is absolutely a bigoted, boomer, class-blind shitheel. Shame, because he truly made good TV, but gently caress him. What he wrote for today was so unnecessarily over the top with its vitriol, I can only ask -- where did Megan Markle touch him?

CAT INTERCEPTOR posted:Not being critical of you as you probably not aware of this (I just want to be 100% clear on that, I am not referring to you or being critical of you), but her name is not Markle anymore and this has been one of the ways the media have sought to discredit and belittle her. As much as I loving hate nobility, she's correctly addressed as Meghan, Duchess of Sussex (Meghan for short) or Meghan Mountbatten-Windsor. Referring to her as her maiden name is such a dick move by the media and you see how it's just..... gone into public perception. It's very much like using the deadname of a transgender person and I personally think just as offensive, especially when it's being used to shape perceptions and narrative around a person the media clearly has a hateboner for. I appreciate the effortpost, but she's a common public figure in the US and surnames are just not that important here, and comparing it to deadnaming is disrespectful, imo (edit3: I wanted to do some more research and it seems like it could be a US thing. Most, if not all, references use her old surname, since that's her stage name. I understand where you're coming from.) gently caress the monarchy and its traditions. Edit: On this note, my wife watched most of the Netflix series and I find the pair of Harry and Meghan to be nothing buy properly boring. I don't understand how anyone can get riled up in any direction about them, they seem as common as milk. meatpimp fucked around with this message at 01:25 on Dec 18, 2022 |

Mister Speaker posted:CAT INTERCEPTOR is definitely correct that it's a calculated move by the media to belittle her. Depends on your viewpoint, I guess. Looking at IMDB, it's still using Markle https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1620783/ Points out of all of this? Meghan has names. The drama around Harry and Meghan is stupid. The monarchy is stupid and has a profound history of really, really bad things.

CAT INTERCEPTOR posted:The point is that media is using her maiden name to other and belittle her and there is a fair bit of racism underlying that as well. This isnt at it's heart about wether royalty should exist, it's about a direct attack on a woman - of colour I'll add - for merely existing. Clarkson's unprovoked misogynistic attack is a long line of steaming poo poo Fleet Street and other media has been spraying at Meghan for years now albeit Clarkson really sank to a new level with this one. I guess it's a country difference. In the US, her surname is her trade name and I notice no slight intended from any reputable news source (and all the reputable news sources used "Markle" as recently as this month). IMO, there is nothing here analogous to deadnaming. And Clarkson can gently caress off, and I'm sad to not watch anything new from Amazon with Hammond and May, but Clarkson is irretrievably in the chud pile.

Mr. Apollo posted:I know a guy who runs an elevator and escalator repair business. He was saying the great thing is that almost all the work is overtime since it’s done after hours to minimize disruption and regardless of the economy, regular maintenance of elevators and escalators has to be done in order to keep them licensed. It is a really difficult union to get into, though. I have a nephew that tried, and it was a time consuming grind.

sharkytm posted:The problem with schtick is that it pollutes the well. Even if it's not who you are IRL, it attracts those types of people to your circle. Enough of them push out the people who remember who you were. Then it's the steep slope of falling into your character. Seen a lot in the old WWF circles.

Now it's Motor Trend? That poo poo getting into mainstream media is not okay. NBC reported on the Texas shooter's tattoos and said the shooter had "white supremecist" tattoos when they showed the picture. No, motherfuckers, those are Nazi tattoos, and gently caress everything about that.

The Door Frame posted:Why won't you people just accept your personal responsibility for climate change? You can't control or even blame business like that; America is about innovation, not about red tape It's not even that so much for me... Americans have torched way more than our share of the planet, but some of us believe science and recognize things need to change for viable human live to continue as-is. But, even if we do, there are second and third world countries that are going ham on any fossil fuel they can (because they are following our lead and chasing our "success"), with no regard for emissions or the environment, and I just don't see any way that we, as a world, will accept change enough to matter. So... embrace nihilism. meatpimp fucked around with this message at 15:55 on Sep 26, 2023 |
