Yeah, it was about what I expected her to say. I'll give her credit for being able to compartmentalize her perspective as much as she did, but I'll also hold her accountable for that same perspective when it stunts the discussion more so than what she claims to be problematic. The desire to change the narrative to remove culpability is absolutely dismantling the dialogue when they deploy that shit.

She says the the same kind of shit in other vids. like when she reviewed Birth of a nation.

And i saw her vid about wonder woman's sexuality, and she said it's bad for heterosexual women.

Awww. Don't say that.
Appreciate that and yeah some of it seemed like a bit of a stretch. I won't go quoting it. However I walked a way with a rejuvenated since of pride like I did thanks to some of you during BHM. My main take away is a desire to put money into my community and give back where/when I can.

One of my child hood friends who's a conspiracy brother and in the NOI always lets me know about the latest ones whether I want to know or not, so I've seen 1-3 trying to be "open minded" (I told him not to send me any more once Hidden Colors 4 came out). There are some good interviews and messages mixed in there so you have the right idea/you won't hear any disagreements from me on that, but unfortunately there's a lot of BS and it's annoying seeing black people who just believe everything in these movies without doing a google search or two because they are in this "everything the white man has taught you is a lie" mind state.

So I had some self reflection and I realized I was pretty presumptuous. I've just stop caring about certain subjects of discussion but I was a fool to just leave. I am not going to post often here or be on gaf in general but I'll be around.

I got hacked and my pc is basically dead. I've given up on LoL and I'm playing more SFV and FF14. I'm maining Juri and learning patience and to punich properly with her. If anyone wants to play SFV just ask. I also got some recruitment codes for FF14 if anyone wants one since I see people are talking about WoW. I've never played WoW but I hear shamans and black mages are essentially the same class with similar sub systems.

Honestly, I don't expect any different from her or those that think like her. There's not going to be a light bulb that goes of above their heads and they just get it. The absolute best that I expect is that they don't use their platforms in the most damaging ways possible.

Nah, Canada, but the CDN$ is absolute trash so prices have probably risen enough since I last played that I'll hate myself.

Oh,i was actually talking about ingame gold. Not sure when it was last that you played but you can now buy "Tokens" with 1 month gametime and sell them on the AH. Which means that AH junkies can pretty much play the game for free.

Also, in WoD with the garrisons we all made TONS of gold.

Right now, a token is at ~36k Gold in the US servers AH. (almost double here in EU and a lot worse in Asia).

Or try to use more black names.

Or use BCT member names.

Neither.

It's from a B-Movie that Dolph was in called Pentathlon.

Here's the description.
"An East German Olympian (Dolph Lundgren) flees to the United States, pursued years later by his neo-Nazi ex-coach (David Soul)."

As in give up on them, or begin to expect the worse and not being open to dialogue. I see it a lot with these troubled times where the other party in any given situation is just ignorant and a little too expressive. Over enough time just about all of us are going to run out of patience if we're not getting a couple of wins here or there. And this new/old education that the entire world seems to be more and more in need of is on us to provide.
Some people are beyond talking to or having a sense of self strong enough to empathize with others. With enough exposure to those kinds of people, over a long enough timeline, our own empathy begins to erode. That's pretty much my observations anyway.

Love it. Live it. Breathe it. Every day of the year. Easily my favourite genre. Watching 1 a day through the month. I'll get home in like an hour and share a pastebin link of it or something. It'll be 31+ or so, to account for time on weekends, though. 😬

I agree on the gameplay. It has some of the worst "character action" controls I've ever experienced.

Excellent. Many thanks. It's only fair that you know that if I should fall foul of one of these cinematic ghouls, my peoples will hold you accountable.
Also, all late rentals are being returned, and dubious nigga's getting unfriended before hand.
