Why would the rich people prevent other rich people from assisting them in screwing over poor people to get more rich?

The club isn’t sectioned off by nationality at that level, it’s by net worth

God I tried SO HARD to like that book. Liked the show growing up because Legend of The Seeker is campy and weirdly ABC channel sexy (blond leather ladies touching you with Pain Dildos, essentially) but it was just trash.

The main character, by all means, should be the least knowledgeable and probably the least ‘wise’ character, but in comes Richard educating the Men of Mud on proper government structures and how their primitive tribal society was stupid and the way they made decisions was dumb.

And you’re right, don’t get me started on the confessors and how anyone with eyes wants to get bent over the table by the protagonist within minutes of meeting him.

…still like the shitty CW show though.

They’re saying the average British citizen isn’t in the business of portraying the rest of Europe unfavorable so much as foreign (and domestic) financial influence pushes those topics to drive the average british citizen to agree with those standpoints.

It’d be silly to think it’s ONLY domestic rich assholes are making waves when we know GLOBAL rich assholes like to play in everyone’s pond.

Thank you for this comparison. That’s a fun one and one that’s made a little more ‘subtle’ in the US if only because of how common that language is among the populace in regions and how pervasive protestantism is in advertising/messaging.

I disagree.

Low millions, like your net worth in your 60s when you own a home, potentially two cars, and a retirement fund. 1-4 million? Sure, not rich, well off by most standards.

Closing in on thay double digit millions? Yeah you’re rich. Hell, in most of the US, having a net worth of 7 million dollars is the ‘eccentric millionaire’ level for most of rural America.

I don’t know, psychopathic tendencies run all over the Reynolds family.

Lack of empathy, a pattern of manipulating others, persistent antisocial behaviors (the DENNIS system, most of the gang’s plans), an innate immunity to stress (like when he just willed his stress away in the ‘mental health day’ episode)

Man’s a psychopath

We don’t ‘punish and make an example’ out of children in civilized society.

We educate them, allow for reform. Until the child has a mostly formed prefrontal cortex, they shouldn’t receive ‘adult’ type consequences. They literally are not developed enough mentally to grasp all of life’s rights and wrongs. That’s not to say they don’t have a gauge of morality, or some concept of what they think Right is, it’s just not all the way fleshed out and their poor stupid neuron-developing brain doesn’t fire the way it’s going to later in life.

Prior to Gamefaqs, I myself was perusing Gamewinners.com…a similar forum site lol

Parts are in central. Have a sister or bear the western edge

You’re encouraged to shovel toxic garbage into the masses here. They said ‘Bread and Circus’ so we’re getting sucrose-brioche and 24 hours of terrible news to watch.

That’s crazy to know the Netherlands fast food isn’t exactly cheap. It’s becoming not cheap here, as well, the prices rising faster than the cost of living and only a little behind grocery prices.

You’re making tons of assumptions and then holding those assumptions as the same as fact. I’ve known a few friends and family that have gone to the military, and I say this with love to those people, they were all dumb. They all now regret having served, or at least regret having served in order to attain the benefits they now gain for having sold themselves to the US, and only one of them (of say maybe 8) has learned anything about the history of the US or the symbols often used throughout.

What ‘tells you’ he knew? Where is the ‘clearly into Nazi history’ coming from? What part of the US schooling covered the various nazi symbols? Because none of those were something I’d have recognized as anything other than ‘military, Fuck Yeah!’ tattoos as a 20 year old.

Are those from ‘fast food’ locations, where the food is meant to be cheap, mostly edible, and filled with fillers/garbage? If not, stop looking for gourmet from what is essentially McDonalds (in the picture it’s Wendy’s and Little Ceasars, a fast food pizza place that is boasted as the cheapest pizzas)

I don’t know if it’s undefinable. There’s a burger of some sort (i don’t eat Wendy’s looks like bacon or bad-lighting lettuce out of the bun), a cup of chili, French fries, and cheese bread.

Unhealthy for sure, but those 4 things are pretty easy to spot

Please look into his politics. This latest push feels so weird to discredit the guy.

He said 'I was in the military, fresh dumb child, got a tattoo with some friends, it’s a common style, didn’t think anything of it.

Then I was told it was nazi related

AND I GOT IT COVERED WITHIN WEEKS OF BEING TOLD’

I don’t know man, that sounds like a pretty genuine attempt. Are you running for office somewhere to make things better? If not, are you advocating for candidates based on 3 click bait articles or are you actually looking into their actions and policy ideas?

I don’t know what you just said, but I didn’t like it

Consent in an imbalanced power dynamic is not always recognized as consent.

Sure, the girls that Louis CK jerked off in front of didn’t scream and run out of the room, but they WERE placed in an inappropriate situation with someone who held the keys to their career. And what did we as a society do? We lambasted him for being weird and not understanding that dynamic, and his career has yet to really recover. He didn’t rape anybody, no, but he sure did abuse his power over those people. Are these similar situations, in your opinion?

I love that you think it’s a generational thing.

And you call people who call out DRASTIC POWER DYNAMICS as prudes. Dude. Do you remember being 20-22? You know she JUST got the right to drink, right? Even if there was a personal interest in Bill Clinton sexually, the dynamic makes any sexual contact inappropriate while he’s her boss. Don’t tell me you think all those stories of 20-something secretaries sleeping with their boss were all consensual love affairs?

Not every power imbalance is coercive, but the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES TALKING TO A 21 YEAR OLD STAFFER IS

In case you didn’t consider that one

Gross, dude

SHIT I need that, just looked through post history and he’s got a lot of ‘my body my choice’ answers to vaccines too.

Well, one more blocked knucklehead

I don’t think the people downvoting know that there’s really people out here putting American craft singles slices on their spaghetti. I should know, I’m related to a couple of them. Seen it a good chunk of my life, almost always in poorer homes, from the southern US and a few times here in the midwest.
