One of my favorite things to do to trigger Music People is to just say The Beatles are a '60s version of BTS, and when they get mad I just point out all the worst songs in their catalogue that are indefensibly bad, like “Octopus Garden”.
Oh please, women haven’t been able to get an abortion in most states in the US to begin with.
Ah yeah, I totally forgot about that! And the Walmart was up in the fuckin Arctic circle so Pitbull was the biggest celebrity who’d ever come to visit by a clear mile. It was a bullying move that ended up being an unintended good thing.
I will destroy you.
I think it’s less that he was irony-poisoned and more that internet comedy writers tend to be awkward dorks in-person
I think these are the same thing. Hedren is clearly an awkward dork, so it’s how he copes. He looked like a racist nephew at a family reunion while everyone’s laughing and eating eggs and smiling and clapping. The key to this, to me, is the Vice article. I’d be willing to see him as simply a goober, but look how he paints himself a hero here:
I’m not bragging. On the contrary, this is a confession. I, along with several thousand Internet people, forced his hand and made the otherwise nice-enough lead singer from Smash Mouth eat eggs until he either cried or was sweating so hard it looked like crying. I’d almost go as far as to call it extreme cyberbullying. Yeah, now that I think about it, I guess we cyberbullied the “All Star” guy.
This whole humblebrag shit doesn’t fly with me. He’s trying to make it sound like all of this was an accident. I’m sure he didn’t intend for it to blow up like this, but you can still see from the video that everyone is having fun. His spin on events is very dark and depressing. I am guessing he doesn’t go to many parties since he just hangs out and takes video the whole time. I remember that the Something Awful forums actually made fun of him and gave the W to Harwell at the time.
Right? Meanwhile he seemed to be miserable the whole fucking day.
Oh agreed, I just hated that they made fun of all that shit. Like I didn’t care and still don’t care what someone has as an identity. I’ll respect whatever. It doesn’t impact my life at all.
They made fun of otherkin just to butter you up to mock trans people
People who like Rorschach fucking terrify me
Mom shut the fuck UP I’m not going to Gramma’s funeral in a fake ass church
If you’re a cis dude then no, I deny and rebuke you
Google isn’t gonna do shit, those nerds fear me
I’ll guarantee it’s not the length of what I shared that’s preventing people from reading.
Yes that’s basically half the posts here right now
I wouldn’t consider him a nazbol
Did you see who he’s hanging out with here?
This is a bad take, chief, and here’s a few thoughts on why.
TheDonald was a cesspit of hatred, bile, and classism that went unchecked for years. It wasn’t only tolerated, it flourished on reddit and turned the rest of it sour. If not for Chapo providing a counterweight to their incessant raids and subtle gaslighting of local community subreddits, it would have been even worse. You want echo chambers? TheDonald already was one. They could exist unchallenged in their space despite sorely needing it.
The left has rarely been afforded the same luxury to gather together, to speculate, to debate, to exist, without being broken up violently by the right and their cronies. This is nothing like what TheDonald is doing because they’re creating an escapist echo chamber to jerk each other off and clap each other on the back for being well-off white dipshits.
We are creating a space to safely interact with each other, a rarity that has not been afforded, especially in such volume, for the left.
Just read any thread about China, about electoralism, about anything. You’re having higher level discussions because you don’t have to drag down the discourse to 101 level horseshit just to make your point. This is hardly an echo chamber. Your thoughts here do not go unchallenged. Our ideology is not that of fear.
So stop worrying and post already, Jesus.
This is the kinda guy you watch at the park attempt an ollie for three hours, snap his board in half, and never come back.
