It’s no coincidence that the contempt oozing out of Thunderbolts* matches the Biden years of contorted language. That asterisk denotes a corrupt populist movie that tells Zoomers they are freaks and mediocrities, even if they band together. The caucus of third-rate superheroes diminishes the concept of heroism just as the terms “inflation,” “take seriously,” “root causes,” “infrastructure,” and “democracy” were robbed of meaning by the last administration. Yes, Thunderbolts* is an anti-American fantasy. What that asterisk really means is: There’s even less to this movie than you think.

Okay, I usually don't know what to think about claims of parents transing their kids but this is legitimately psychotic.

She told me she particularly hated—and she made an actual, physical list that she kept in her journal, editing it daily—how peacefully he slept.

'There is nothing worse than the undisturbed sleep of a white man in a patriarchal world.' She shakes her head. 'It was hard to come to terms with the fact that I was bringing yet another white man into the world.'"

[Eric Cartman]

its actually disgusting to see someone sleeping like a baby colonizer capitalist in the patriachy

[Eric Cartman]

I can fix her

[DavidCroquet]

Damn those white men and their peaceful sleep…damn them!

Also: how do babies get made and does this guy have anything to do with it???

Heather Saul of The Independent wrote in support of Ratajkowski in an article subtitled "Ratajkowski is becoming an important feminist voice in the debate over female censorship and sexuality".[276] New York's Allie Jones called Ratajkowski "the best feminist celeb".[277]

...

On February 23, 2018, Ratajkowski announced on Instagram that she had married actor and producer Sebastian Bear-McClard, her boyfriend of several weeks, in a New York City courthouse wedding.[281] They lived in the NoHo neighborhood of Manhattan and in Los Angeles.[282] On October 26, 2020, Ratajkowski confirmed she was pregnant. In one of her essays, she wrote about how both her husband and herself did not wish to discuss their child's sex until their child was born.[283][284] She gave birth to their son[285] on March 8, 2021.[286][287] In July 2022, Ratajkowski and Bear-McClard separated,[288][289] and she later filed for divorce that September.[290]

Well, I guess she can't help us with that whole would a woman rather be in the woods with a bear or a man thing.

It's actually amazing how much the conversation has changed since GTA V. Like, genuinely shocking.

"I'm not playing GTA if it celebrates lowbrow heterosexual norms!"
"I'm not playing GTA if it's anti-cop!"

I'd say these people have never played GTA in the first place, but that's obviously not the case.

What's next? Era getting disappointed in a Postal remake.

ResetEra: "Needs to get rid of the offensive stuff for me to still not buy it."

[nachobro]

going to twitter for honest reactions is never going to work out. its all bots and paid checks who say retarded shit for engagement so they can get a payout at the end of the month, thats just another example of it

[Nintex]

I must admit I'm surprised that Grand Theft Auto VI is so blatantly straight and romantic in a way I haven't seen in a video game in a while.

[Uncle]

it's because it's a mixed race relationship

same reason pedro pascal is getting cast in everything, he's got "mass market appeal" (he looks white) but isn't white

Help defend me against Dave Portnoy attacks
Full text:

Spoiler:  (click to show)(click to hide)

Over the weekend, I was present at an establishment where an incident occurred that Dave Portnoy sensationalized to his 9.2 million followers on X & Instagram, amplifying it into a global news story. I was not responsible for the sign & I don't know who was. However, it was clearly provocative because it reminds people of the acts of injustice israel is perpetrating around the world, so I reported on it.

Dave Portnoy and his friends can choose to be triggered by the sentiments of that sign, and he has the right to kick me out of his bar forever. But they have no right to destroy my life over free speech and what is ultimately just an edgy joke. Frankly, they're more concerned about destroying my life than they are with stopping a genocide that is blowing up children. That sign didn't kill any jews--nor did my reporting of it--but their support of Israel kills 1000s of people EVERY SINGLE DAY.

Dave Portnoy, and the greater Jewish community are making themselves out to be some kind of victims because of hurt feelings from 3 words on a bar sign, but I am the real victim. While Dave Portnoy lies about me and viciously attacks me, trying to force me to take a trip abroad to visit death camps as a condition of not destroying my life and the lives of my family members, here’s how my real life has been affected–not just my “feelings”:

-Suspended from university
-Threats of getting me expelled permanently
-Fired from my job
-Doxxed
-Death threats
-Continuous spam calls mentioning killing me
-Pictures sent to me of children dying
-News articles harassing my parents
-Roommates had to evacuate because of potential unwanted visitors

Remember, I’m a 21-year old college kid. I’m not a public figure. Dave is twice my age and a well-connected multi-millionaire with countless connections to supporters with institutional power. This asymmetric power dynamic is the reason why I previously made statements to Dave that do not accurately reflect what actually happened the other night and the responsibility I bear. I made those statements under extreme duress and threats to destroy me and my parents.

I love my parents. They worked hard to earn American citizenship the right way and become productive citizens. We love America. I love free speech. I love my fellow Americans who are pro-Constitution and are involved in safeguarding their rights.

Dave has built a reputation, career and business empire based on being anti-cancel culture. But, in a shameless act of hypocrisy, he’s lynching me–an innocent young man–over a joke I didn’t even make. In an attempt to expose me, he exposed himself as a total fraud. Dave Portnoy owes me an apology and restitution for the damage he's caused me.

I'm asking for your support to help me defend myself against these attacks, pay for relocation expenses, pay for my legal representation, and show the Founders Of Cancel Culture™ their reign of tyranny is over.

This is the only official Mo Khan Campaign.

A sign that was both "clearly provocative because it reminds people of the acts of injustice israel is perpetrating around the world*" and also "a joke".



*Not injustice Israel is perpetrating in Palestine, no, but the the whole fucking world. Hmmm, that sure does sound a lot like standard anti-semitic conspiracy bullshit.

I thought the Palestinians were the real victims? Thousands of children are being murdered every day, and you think people should be giving YOU money? This culture-war ebegging shit has gotten out of hand, once people catch on that you can turn calling children the n-word and doing hate-crimes into some real money it won't be pretty.
