A thread focused on discussing the parasocial relationships cultivated by the Almighty Algorithm to generate profit off of our atomization and society's commodification of petty internet drama.
Brace through the hyper-real lacanian void together!

It will take a while but eventually only cinephiles will keep going to theaters and only if they show high quality film reels. Unironically if you sit slightly closer to a decent monitor with good earphones you will have a better movie experience than the digital projection theaters use and with the bonus of not potentially having other people or bad seating to ruin it. Also most pirate streamsites have 1080p these days.

>>2585188
Showing the attacker was provoked doesn't absolve him of all responsibility, it just shows the attack was not premeditated. He should still face some punishment for attacking someone with a knife.
You know they made the wrong decision when you apply this to other situations. Should men be allowed to beat their wives because she proved him by saying something mean?

>>2585228
While you have a point about mistaken social learning of things like broccoli, it's still an emotion that at it's base exists protects people from potential harm. Until humanity defeats STDs it's good to be cautious about randomly have sex with lots of people.

>>2585212
Because racists are filth. Society goes too easy on them.

>>2585270
I believe you baiting. I don't think you truly support people stabbed random people when they say the n word and face zero consequences

>>2585195
>>2585270
This kind of retard sakaism is anything but helpful in addressing actual racism (hint: it doesn't come from people riding the bus, no matter what your "lived experience" is.)

Rudeness and racialism doesn't warrant death, and it's indicative of zoom-zoom culture to go to extremes like this. Actual racism comes from the bourgeoisie, their theological ideology, their culture, but most of all the material conditions that the working class are under.

>>2585275
Zoomers are more racist than your generation though

>>2585277
SHOW ME A ZOOMER WHO IS PART OF THE HAUTE BOURGEOISIE

>>2585278
Baron Trump

>>2585280
Good example, but World Liberty Financial, the majority of his wealth, deals exclusively in speculative fictional capital not tied to any businesses, real estate, or employment, and therefore cannot inflict racism. It'll be different when he inherents his dad's empire.

Wasn't Trump planning a tariff on all foreign movies?
Sorry but unless it's Hollywood, it ain't gonna be shown on theaters.

>>2584632
If you're upset by this but not the fact that men will shake hands with thousands of other men then you are just a hypocrite and prude.

>>2585275
I'm not a sakaist lmao, and its not about the individual words or whatever. People who use the n word in public as a racial insult in someone's face are the worst reactionaries. It's not worth winning these extreme right-wingers over. Spend your effort on the undecided. These reactionaries will just spend their lives serving the capitalist / fascist cause, and they will fight against you in a revolutionary war. Them being killed is an objective boon to the socialist cause.

Not everyone is an AmeriKKKan

>>2584643
The 1000 men in one day thing is completely fake outrage bait to promote herself. The "proof" of it amounted to a picture of a single guy in a ski mask. People cannot help themselves from falling for outrage bait, it's the easiest way to promote yourself.

>>2585343
NTA but somewhat agree here. I've had my share of heated gamer moments but never called a black person that to their face. I won't lose sleep if someone like that gets stabbed.

Racism is cultural. Using racial insults instead of other types of insults is also cultural. Only liberals think it's an individual moral failing that proves someone is innately evil.

>>2585379
It looks tasty
>>2585383
Nonsense

>>2585384
Racial categories themselves are cultural. Using a racial category as an insult couldn't exist in an individualized vacuum.

Please provide a list of appropriate insults/slurs to call someone after they stab you.
For me, if you stabbed me it would probably be BABY BOILING BASTARD

>>2585406
Reading is such a broad generic category it should be divided into different genres so women would give more detailed response.
I bet the average woman would vote sci-fi and history as the least attractive with exceptions given to some Anne Boleyn hagiography lol

>be syrian born American
>Identify as america first groyper
>Donate 20 dollars to nick fuentes to say you don't want immigrants to bring their culture here that you accepted American culture unlike them

>You are embarrassed
>You delete your Twitter and disappear

Lol

Most of these rightwing immigrants just become evangelical conservatives or free market radical libertarians. Imagine being retarded enough to align with a white nationalist movement while not being white yourself, kek.

Reminds me of that one video of the women paying to scream in a forest

>>2585470
I noticed he has a tendency to insult viewers that send him money to read their messages. Imagine sending money to your ideological idol just for him to insult you in a 3 minute rant, maybe groypers have a paypig fetish?

>>2585470
>>2585437
when people say "X civil war is over, its safe to be there now" never actually know what's happening in the world.
It takes 5 seconds of googling to see that somalia is still in a civil war, and the capitol is surrounded by ISIS

>>2585460
>What is the political implication of these "men's retreats" where adult men are encouraged to scream and cry?
Liberal Feminism has pushed misandry as far as it goes without getting all exclusive and touching the profits. So it follows that we see a commodification of male identity similar to liberal feminism, by the same rulebook. But it's tough nowadays because unlike foids, males can't get away with having a gender identity separate from sexual preference. Malehood is toxic and more malehood is more toxic. Deviation from *malehood as a defect* tends to be lumped with other identity categories as if those are necessary to fill the gaps or compensate the inherent badness of being male.

Ask if one can be any degree of womanly without being a lesbian and it's a no-brainer. Ask the same about males and there is an intrinsic link with homosexuality, the exclusion of which is seen as homophobia.

>>2585470
>You came here uninvited
Isn't that how white people got here though? I swear these mother fuckers want it both ways, they will use "Survival of the fittest" or "The right of conquest" to justify indigenous genocide but then complain about immigrants, hypothetically if immigrants were taking over the way they say they are wouldn't that just be an ultimate skill issue?

I wonder who is responsible for creating those millions of refugees?

Yeah I wonder who 🤔

Men no longer practice contact sports or participate in mosh pits where screaming and crying allowed us to alleviate our feelings and frustrations.

Lol

To be fair: the femcel movement that started it would also defend a korean women who raped a little boy since of the kid's gender :^)
