I don't think we should kill people for doing crimes but I also think we can extend a little grace to people who have been victims of crimes expressing anger and upset

having anything stolen from you is not simply a minor inconvenience, let alone something with personal info like a phone. jesus christ thread

Christ! it sounds like your the passive aggressive one here.... yeah, ok.. your wife got you the wrong present, such is life.

Normal people graciously accept the present in the spirit it was given.

For example, my dad got me some warm socks for my motorbike ride to work, I'd have liked something different but whatevers, I'll find them useful & I'm not going to piss on his bonfire by moaning about them.

she failed to engage brain on three counts though 1) it's a boring hardware gift 2) to solve a problem for someone else 3) that was already bought and used

plus potentially 4) no other gift bought. any one of those should have prompted a double-check. it's a real Homer bowling ball

I've seen far too many people claim that he drove his daughter to suicide. Not through any evidence, but because they dislike him because of his superhero movies. Snyder haters are far loving weirder than the people that like him.

absolutely no one mentioned Snyder until a bunch of goons frothed themselves up into a gammon rage about it

it loving sucks

They seem to assume that anyone expressing mild dislke is in fact seething and scromiting themselves into insanity over the existence of a director who is at best passable and at worst overuses slowmo.

Snyder is neither a wünderkind nor an antichrist. He's just a weird little man who makes action movies.

why do you think I was talking about you?

Yeah i misunderstood the context on that one i thought he was calling everyone who posted about zach snyder negatively as being frothing mad? I used calm hittler as a shorthand for that kind of passive agreessive 'youre all totally mad but i am calm and normal about things' lol sorry

no, I meant you - I don't know if you are "mad" but you (and others) made a weird post arguing against things no one said in a thread not about Zack Snyder. like how conservatives will apropos of nothing start ranting about the immigrants or health and safety or whatever bugbear they currently have. like how josh04 said in their joke about preparing for 10 pages of Snyder discourse because of one offhand snide comment. it's not the sort of thing people who aren't "mad" do

for what it's worth I'm not calm. I'm mad about it, and more than that I'm tired. I'm so tired of people yelling about comic book movies. I'm tired of overblown nerd hyperbole. I'm tired of posts about a fairly standard mainstream action movie director appearing in threads that have nothing to do with him. I'm tired of people pretending they don't care about things. I'm tired of casual hostility. I'm tired of all these rebel moons

no i dont think so. Like you can convince yourself of anything in any direction to the point of pointlessness. How big does the company have to be? Like if the boss is quite well off but in no way a millionaire? What if you are a high up in the company and steal like millions from it and it can't afford to pay its staffs pensions? Like what about stealing from the government? What about if you're michelle mone stealing from the government? Like I think ultimately we need to be in a society where we don't steal and stealing is bad.

Stealing is dishonest and dishonesty is bad.

I was shitposting but also at the same time I agree

I'm not gonna go to bat for capital but I think it is naive in the extreme to assume that e.g. an organised crime ring stealing printer ink cartridges is a fellow proletarian traveller on the road to revolution

we can't put the blame and responsibility for self-harm or suicide on a third party - but that implies that (cyber)bullying is somehow value-neutral when it comes to mental health, as though it didn't cause any harm to the person targeted. that... doesn't seem right

political spectra are descriptive, not prescriptive. people, groups and ideologies are arranged into an order that is convenient for the observer. there's no underlying quantity of "left-ness" that you can alter to cycle along the political parties
