Not everything that's racist is a major social problem. The belief that it is and subsequent overcompensation to "combat" it has caused far more harm to society than the minor, incidental racism. On top of stifling everyone's ability to actually talk frankly and honestly about race and creating a whole lot of resentment, its enabled a generation of narcissistic grifters, many of whom are straight up sociopaths.

And that's not getting into how the current "antiracism" craze is openly racist against white people, often in more extreme ways than all but the most fringe cases of the racism they claim to be combating.

In short, the song was right, and if anything is more timely than ever.

I suppose an appropriate comparison would be to diseases like smallpox & bubonic plague. They were horrible and absolutely rife in the past and while they still exist today, they’re only a major problem in third-world countries and are pretty much toothless in the western world (where they have been replaced by new, more deadly diseases).

One of the mods hates the Karen meme, for some reason.

They hate it for the same reason they hate the NPC meme. It’s a bitter reflection/reminder of what they really are.
 
Hah!

Actually smallpox doesn't exist at all, other than in the germ warfare departments of any country that has such a thing. It's one of the few pathogens that has been entirely eliminated in the wild, largely because it was uniquely tied to homo sapiens, so had no animal reservoir population to hide in.

That's the reason we still do see occasional plague outbreaks. That can live in a lot of critters.

Considering how one of them hate it when we were providing an chunk of their inbound traffic, no.

Besides, I've already updated the archive for it.

Administrators are the easiest people to annoy. I don't see a point in slightly inconveniencing everyone to do something so effortless as that.

More use of Nightmare Fuel as a WMG standin.
If you're really going to say that one kind of monster is instant HONF, then a bones file would count better than half of these for having a ghost and whatever Demonic Spider that was behind their end, as well as being foreshadowed by signs of player activity.

I love how a fucking beehive is right in between a giant ghost that paralyzes you at random and being decayed and transformed into slime by a monster. Like imagine being triggered by bees of all thing, what are you, Spoony or something?

I love how SJWs always talk about progress but don't belive people can change.

Oh they do think you can change. All you have to do is bend the knee and completely suck up to them and their ideology. Just look at the numerous “ex alt-right/ex Anti-SJW” stories that have cropped up in recent years and the amount of praise they get and how they’re accepted almost entirely without any question to authenticity. Basically, if you suck their dick hard enough, they’ll suck yours even harder.

The games are meant to be entertainment, not a soapbox.

Saying that will just get a long, convoluted “wall of text” style speech about how “all entertainment is political ackshully” in response.

Well to be honest, dude, about 100% of all players start with fatal allergies to bee stings when it comes to NetHack. Giant venomous insects are no joke.

Seriously, on the occasion where I try to have a conversation on that site, I end up having to walk on eggshells every single time. Even if I try to link a video that I think would be worth discussing, like so:

they instead respond like this:

Oh, and my next post defending my stance (or something, I forgot what it was) ended up getting thumped.

Personal opinion;the film itself isn’t too woke, it’s just average. It’s more or less the media coverage & the actress herself promoting it as the first movie with a strong female character ever & therefore anyone who doesn’t like it is a sexist (which is obviously bullshit. Ellen Ripley beat you to that punch, Brie). That and the fact that it’s a Marvel movie and therefore guaranteed to make tons of dosh regardless of it quality, are the only reasons it averted “Get Woke, Go Broke”(unfortunately, smug deboonkers & the media have used this as “proof” that gEt wOkE gO bRoKe iS a mYtH, gEt rEkT cOnSeRvAtArDs!!!).

Ironic considering they have a trope page about double standards with female on male abuse being scene as funny.

Double ironic considering leftists now seem to be supporting rape culture now.
