Most things are an op. And the left loves that shit because 99% of them are antisemitic.
Exe Ante Not Cute

“Treat street lunatics like protected wildlife….”
That’s true, but that’s not all. In the progressive mind the greatest sin is being MEAN. They will do anything to avoid being seen as the dreaded “mean.” They will inflict endless pain and suffering on others, in fact, to avoid this perception of meanness. Partially it is because they want to avoid making difficult decisions of any kind. But it is more than that. They believe the first-order effect of being (supposedly) mean, of treating anyone at all harshly, matters more than anything else that occurs after.
Thus, being “mean” to some schizo stabby hobo by tossing him in the hoosegow before he slaughters an infinitely-more-valuable Iryna Zarutska is to progressives the worse transgression than Iryna bleeding out utterly alone on a bus. To them, what happens to the productive and priceless Irynas of the world do not matter at all in comparison to the fact that we’d have to be “mean” to Decarlos Brown.
Yes, what they believe is perverse and destructive to society. It makes no sense. But I think we must think like them — and even empathize with them a bit — to combat their depredations against sense and civilization. Their fear of being perceived as harsh or cruel is the result of feeling weak. Because they are in fact weak and pitiful. They want to support the supposed underdog because they feel like that dog. Correct or not, that is how they perceive themselves. They feel more in common with Decarlos Brown than a productive and ambitious young woman like Iryna because their contributions to civil society are essentially nothing and most of their jobs are meaningless. In fact, most of their lives lack any meaning at all.
I know, again, it makes no sense. But when you actually feel empathy (rather than sympathy) that’s often what happens.
They don’t want to be “mean” to Decarlos Brown because they resemble him (to themselves) more than they do Iryna. And that terrifies them.
Carrie Me Away
It is good. Very good. Better than it has any right to be.
Even my one complaint — that Summer H. Howell is too pretty for the role1 — is obviated by the context in which Flanagan embeds Summer as Carrie. Anyway, Summer is great in the role; she nails it. And without that the whole series would fall apart.
It’s just really well done. Watch it.
Simil

That’s the problem, isn’t it? Modern idiot liberals/leftists believe everyone (and every group) is secretly identical beneath their skin and clothes — when nothing could be further from the truth. It’s an extremely dangerous belief because it justifies them welcoming Pakistani rape gangs with open arms and then denying they exist (while saying the white girls raped probably deserved it). It’s also caused the destruction of Western Europe in other ways.
At this point, most of Europe is doomed. I’m hoping we can turn it around in America.

Wow, that is horrifying.

8mm
8mm movie – was a scene cut out recently?
Indeed, that scene has been excised in later releases. Too intense for modern sensibilities, I guess.
I remember it clearly because it was so effective and disturbing. Some of Nic Cage’s best acting, too. You don’t see what happens to the girl on screen but Nic’s acting sells it hard.
Very disquieting scene that should’ve stayed in the film.
Rhi
“She is like a cat in the dark, and then she is the darkness” from Fleetwood Mac’s “Rhiannon” might be the best and most poetic line in all of pop music.
Talking about saying so much with so little. I’m in awe of the economy of those lyrics that manage to build an entire world ex nihilo.
Stevie Nicks wrote those words and though she was never a horrid lyricist, those lines so far exceed anything else she ever penned that the lightning of pure genius must have struck full force that day.
Meant To Do It

The idiotic leftist delusion that all people and groups are exactly the same is going to destroy Western Europe (already mostly has) and perhaps the entirety of Western Civilization.
Smart Social

That’s largely because every mediocre woman has been propagandized to believe they are special fairy sparkle princesses who all deserve Chris Hemsworth and will accept nothing less. The combination of social media and smartphones has really ruined women.
Even an extremely mediocre woman does not find an above average man attractive any longer. I don’t know what can be done about it at this point, though, in practical terms. Looks like everyone will just have to suffer. (Most American men should become passport bros, though.)

Change It
The thing that I and other men resent about being a “default rapist” is that I am at no more risk of raping you than the average woman is.
So it’s in no way fair to me to treat me like I am. That you think you “have to” doesn’t change that fact.
