I've noticed that critics and the like absolutely hate media that takes itself seriously, even if it's over the top grimderp. And to some degree I understand it since grimdark stuff attracts some terrible fans, but their hate goes beyond that, to where they seem to think that the existence of serious media is a crime. I'd be interested in knowing their justifications for thinking like this, but if I had to guess I'd say they prefer campy humor and marvel tier snark and on some level this makes them feel inferior to people who like "serious" media, and they hate it because of that.

They love serious movies like Cuties. They are all disgusting, weird people.

If it is constitutional for the state to mandate vaccinations or masks because it might save somebody else's life, surely it's constitutional for the state to ban abortions because it will save the unborn baby's life?

Here's Bob "fixing the Terminator franchise".

Basically, with T2 judgement day was averted, and the fully automated luxury gay space communism future can come by like 2050. Only the intellectual people really have worth there (despite everyone being cared for, I guess?), and the enemies are the dumb brutes who Bob imagines to have been given wedgies in High School by.

I can't imagine a quicker or easier way to get your audience to absolutely hate your protagonists then to make them rich, pampered posh yuppies who live perfect lives and are only troubled by a group of jealous poor people.

Another thing that i cannot understand. Why do people always bring the "They will just nuke us" as a default for not opposing the government? Anyone with enough sanity knows that the government will never nuke it's own country. The risk, both internal (makign areas of the country uninhabitable) and external (the world seeing a country nuke it's own people) is inmesurable and terribly damaging for any country that decides to use nukes.

That is why everyone knows what anyone should fear are intelligence agencies and anyone that tries to take away your guns. That is a heavy sign of "We want you defenseless so you cannot oppose us".

TBF Eric "Sleeping with the enemy" Swalwell did imply he would support nuking constituents which didn't surrender their guns

This has been plenty discussed in A&H and Bob cannot even fathom how fucked he will be in the event of an insurrection/civil war in the US, specially when the expected desertion rate at the moment conflict starts is expected to be 50% (and this is being optimistic), and raising to 75% if the conflict goes on for more than a month. Then add the fact that other nations have a beef in the US and you can expect Billy Bob, the toothless hillbily from the Appalachia that goes to the range every day to suddenly be friends with Vlad, sent from Russia, to teach him how to fight in urban enviroments. Then, add to the mix the fact that most of these people have survival training, how frail the current US infrastructure is and the fact that most air bases are in red states, and it's not a very pretty picture.

Bob just says it because he needs to crank one out for his ego, like always. After all, he has absolutely no sense of commitment so if shit hits the fan, expect him to scurry away like a fat rat.

Blobert expects someone else to do the fighting, while he sits back behind the lines and manages the all-too-important duty of reviewing capeshit product for the troops.

Even if a hypothetical civil war was absolutely easily winnable and could result in a clean cut-and-dry victory for whichever globohomo center-left Euro/Chicom puppet regime in DC Blobert would simp for; at the end of the day he still expects them to die on the front lines fighting the mayo ghouls while he cheers them on from his safe basement.

It won't be, professional critics have already decided to hate the Snyder Cut as see its existence as a win for "toxic fandom".

Fortunately, nobody listens to the critics anymore, they're publically outed as bought and RottenTomatoes tanked it's cred when it got caught excising large chunks of negative reviews for 2019 wokeshit movies because they were just 'troll reviews' .

So it doesn't matter what they say, like an ESPN anchor, they're irrelevant and only kept alive through the patronage of the elites who want them as pet mouthpieces.... everyone else will just watch what they want to watch, if it's halfway decent, word-of-mouth will promote the Snyder Cut while people like Bob bemoan the racism and sexism of fandom as they give money to "a guy who we revoked the gatekeeping privileges of".

they seem to think that the existence of serious media is a crime. I'd be interested in knowing their justifications for thinking like this

They honestly believe that realistic portrayals of villains in media CREATE villains in real life. They think that Joker portrayed as a regular guy who was pushed over the edge will encourage people to become just like him because it seems "easy", all you gotta do is wear clown makeup an pack heat! So, only by creating villains that are comically over-the-top exaggerations to the degree no human being on Earth could actually follow suit, or sympathetic misunderstoods just one hug away from reformation, can we prevent this.

A "serious" villain is a danger to society because it's a "how to" manual for how to do evil and not be noticed doing it.... maybe even applauded for it!

It's why all villains these days are parodic sad sacks or just misunderstood potential romantic partners, the era of the plausible villain with understandible (if not relatable) motives and the ability to make rational decisions to advance his plans, like a Darth Vader or a Magneto, or an Ernst Blofeld, has been ended by critical fiat.

If you show your villain as anything other than a complete joke or complete monster, you are ENDORSING villainy.

Not to mention the fact that a Civil War in modern America wouldn't be a repeat of North vs. South, but Sarajevo on a national scale. Every town, neighborhood, and fucking zip code would probably turn into war zones, with neighbors turning on and killing each other based on their real or perceived allegiance. There really wouldn't be any "safe haven" for anyone. And Twitter loudmouths like Bob? They've made themselves very large, very obvious targets for anyone with an axe to grind.

 

[Flexo]

There's absolutely a difference between absolute and relative poverty, but to claim that relative poverty isn't a bad thing because other people have it worse isn't a good idea.

Well... that depends on a lot of interpretations of half the words in your sentence.

I'll just say sometimes yes, sometimes no.

I've noticed that critics and the like absolutely hate media that takes itself seriously, even if it's over the top grimderp. And to some degree I understand it since grimdark stuff attracts some terrible fans, but their hate goes beyond that, to where they seem to think that the existence of serious media is a crime.

Irony.

I can't recall the article now but long, LONG ago (back when SJWs were just called "PCs") there were a few articles talking about how media was suffused with "irony" and there was a distinct lack of sincerity. If you do a search, you can probably find more than a few literature sites talking about it.

You can almost track Marvel skirting this at first (Iron Man is very sincere) but then slowly devolve into irony as things go on (Thor 3) though they haven't quite gone all the way yet.

Of course, all the youtube movie video people like Bob are only pushing this trend with their videos of "oh how problematic is this plot point now?" and "lulz, who would ever behave that way."

 

[Koby_Fish]

Surprising absolutely no-one, Bob neither comprehends what Wisdom is, nor how it differs from "intelligence". Bob is neither intelligent nor wise.

Incidentally, just by the way, "fool" (the opposite of a wise person) doesn't just mean well, fool. In the Bible, it also means "unbeliever". Bob is most definitely a fool.

Indeed. As I said on the thread for sperging about this in Deep Thoughts:

Anyone who says that things will break neatly along state or even county lines in a hypothetical Second Civil War is completely batshit and has no idea what they're talking about, as is anyone who thinks a bloodless, Czechoslovak-style dissolution is realistic or even that the Second American Civil War would look like the Spanish Civil War.

A Czechoslovak-style agreement where red states and blue states just agree to form two seperate nations is impossible, because there are Republicans in Portland and there are Democrats in rural Alabama. This isn't some grand strategy game where you can just genocide people who get in the way of your nation.

The Spanish Civil War ended up the way it did because Spanish Army units in some areas of Spain supported General Mola's pronunciamiento whereas in other areas of Spain the Army either stayed loyal to the Republic or was defeated by communist and socialist militias when it tried to rebel. Again, you had a division of territory that would be impossible in modern-day America.

If we say for argument's sake that everyone that voted Republican forms one state and everyone that voted Democrat forms another state, the Republicans have the nukes, the agricultural regions, the majority of air bases (and thus the majority of the USAF) and have the advantage of not being divided into enclaves dotted around the country. Being stuck in cities while your better-armed enemies have all the countryside is not how you win a war - just ask Chiang Kai-Shek. You also can't win a war if you're a net importer of food and your enemies can blockade you - ask Kaiser Wilhelm II how that went.

The only way any potential socialist government can even think about winning a civil war is if they have the Midwest and the grain that grows there. For them to do that, they need to not be socialists - in short, anyone who seriously thinks the USSA could survive for longer than five minutes is seriously in the wrong.

The most likely thing to happen is something akin to the Troubles instead of an actual civil war - there will be armed terrorist groups on both sides, they'll kill each other, politicians and civilians from the other camp and they'll be associated with political parties, but in the way not all Catholics were in the 'Ra and not all Prods were in the UVF, the vast majority of people won't have anything to do with these militias.

But since this seems to be a shitposting thread, the one thing I'd love to see is a Catholic and francophone Louisiana. Á bas avec les Trumpistes, et aussi avec les socialistes. Vive la Louisiane, une, sainte, forte et indivisible.

It's as Twain once said:

Bob removes all doubt every day.

Which is why I just laugh at Swill-well saying he'd nuke anyone who didn't turn over their guns.... he's not even remotely aware that even if he COULD do it, he'd be spending the rest of his life writing apology letters that say something like "Sorry about your Grandma being flash-fried, but, it was her choice to live next door to a person who wouldn't obey a lawful order to turn in their .22" since there isn't anywhere on the map you can drop a nuke and hit only 100% members of ONE political faction.... that used to be known as the STRENGTH of our nation, that it couldn't be balkanized with petty gripes for the gain of regional warlords, but we've lost that as large chunks of the populace, one by one, have been declared "not real Americans" by the establishment, which thinks non-citizens are closer to the mark than Tennesseans these days.....

Which is why if the shit does hit the fan, I really fear for America.

As someone else mentioned, Sarajevo on the Potomac is not a good idea, but it sadly seems like something that could happen.

So, today is a day that ends in "y", so here is Robert "kill the nazis" customary post, but uh-oh, there is a twist:

You know Robert's bullshit about "the nazis came after my family, friends and colleagues" he does, so he can have the moral high ground justification when spouting his impotent rage. Yeah, finally someone called him over his bullshit, and Robert did his costumary smug reaction "Oh, I didn't know you need to have loved ones die so you can hate nazis".

But it didn't end there:

Instead of bringing more light to those deaths that were DIRECTLY caused by the "Nazis", Robert tries to weasel his way out by justifying that he always hated the "Nazis", therefore he doesn't need the "loved ones deaths" to whish upon "nazis" deaths. But that wasn't the point to begin with, Robert started this spiel because he felt self-rigthous and just about his rage against the "nazis" because he lost loved ones, which is bullshit as we all know.

And so ends Robert's rant about the killing of nazi. He wants to kill people for a woman he never met or known before, who has a tragic death in a stupid way, but no one sane would start a crusade over it and risking over a lot more innocent lives.

And the someone dear to Robert's heart who was taken away by the "nazis"? Yeah, that is none of your business, tough Boston guy talking here.

Bet Robert was as close to this dead person by the "nazis" just as much as he was close to Lindsay Ellis.

I'd just like to remind Blob that his waifus have opposed the death penalty.

Now, we all know that Blob getting within ten yards of AOC without him getting pepper sprayed is about as likely as pigs flying or @BoxerShorts47 making an argument grounded in common sense, but in the event that a miracle happens and he does get to meet her, I'd love to see the look on her face when she notices that a fat white fascist who opposes pretty much everything she supports thinks he's exactly the same as her.
