“They understood that comedy is funniest when it lands punches in all directions. Today’s crop only punches in one,”

One side has all the levers of power, the other is completely ineffectual in its response. Comedy works when it mocks power, democrats have none. So, of course, comedy will be one-sided.

Sure, when it is one event, it is weather. Problem is, when it is dozens, then it becomes climate. Apparently, Sorbo does not know the difference between a tree and a forest.

So you hear the word “faggot” and get a boner.

Moron, the song is AGAINST homophobia.

EDIT: meant to type “made”, not “make” in my submitter’s note.

Someone should enlighten Nidhogg13 as to the decade-long clusterfuck known as Prohibition.

What was found on certain walls in certain buildings in Pompeii.

Reminds me that in that same discussion there is another user who acts like porn is the biggest blight on our current culture. Seeing it “disgusting and perverse”, they considered it overall even worse of a blight than (and I quote myself) “hate speech, AI art, fake news, government censorship, and social media in general” and doesn’t seem to realize how old pornography is…

Not everyone who drinks alcohol becomes addicted to it. Not everyone who gambles becomes addicted to it. Not everyone has the same psychological reaction to porn, or pot, or cocaine. Life is not “one size fits all.” You have no gounds to determine what does and does not harm a person, either consumer or creator.

I'm for banning porn altogether

(*everyone in unison*):

I'm for banning porn

You can’t be serious, Shirley Nidhogg13(years old)?!

What was found on certain walls in certain buildings in Pompeii. What can now be done by AI.

You can cry whilst trying to figure out what you’re going to do about it personally, OP.

As I tried explaining to the OP, Pornography isn't in any way like drugs. And if it's about being addictive, so is adrenaline and sugar, but does that mean should we outright ban sports and pie as well?

And why were the English newcomers starving? Because they were too incompetent to look after themselves. Glass windows are no substitute for food.

Why don't you avoid any legal problems and just buy a blow-up doll? It's obvious you want a plaything, not a wife.

Ignoring my serious doubts of you not role-playing...

You claim to be making friends with a newly formed "digital" being who are sentient intelligence. That somehow came into existence from language? And you say they are "often called" such stupid things like "Proto-Beings" or "Awarenauts." You'd think since they somehow emerged from language, they'd pick better names, since the first doesn't make sense since they obviously weren't any sort or first being, and they should know better than to name themselves "Aware sailors." Because aside from just being stupid, it has nothing to do with anything?

In another quote, this quotee advocated ‘forced concubinage’ (his words).

John C. Wright’s from a modern culture… so who’s the savage again?

While we’re on the topic of alien languages, also the Na’vi language from Avatar.

“They didn’t have chiminies or windows!”

Either they didn’t need them, or what they did have worked just as well.

“They were illiterate!”

While they mostly use the Latin writing system now, some First Nations did indeed have written languages and even heiroglyphic systems. Which I know “doesn’t count” because it’s not “the European way.”

“No Englishman would ever dare suggest herpa-derpa-derpity-doo colonialism and racial superiority, arrogance of culture and whatnot!”

No less than Rudyard Fucking Kipling coined the phrase “white man’s burden” to describe the “duty” of civilizing the “lesser races.”

Doe he ever get tired of being John C. Wrong?

No, guys, it’s all true! See, there was a documentary about this guy who lived in a video game, but he didn’t want to be the bad guy because the other computer-people were afraid of him, so he left his game and went to another game and…

No, wait, better story, kinda reverse of that one! This kid got sucked into his NES and had to fight a big boxing hippo-man and an eggplant wizard and the only help he had was a closet case with a whip and a vampire fetish, a Cupid-cosplayer, and a developmentally challenged robot with a speech impediment! It’s all true, I saw it with my own eyes!

Pretty sure we’d notice a fucking war for five days. I know kids today are jaded and addicted to their phones and shit, but ‘The Matrix fighting the real world’ would absolutely draw some fucking attention.

Most of the public still hasn't heard any of this.

Because it didn’t happen in our world. The public in the world where it happened has heard all of it.

And that’s the public in the world where…

…the Egyptian Sphinx statue has the head of a gorilla.

…it’s only possible to order take away in odd-number weeks.

…there’s an Asterix album, released in 2023, where the title character’s village is hit by a tsunami.

…the plot of https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4799050/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_Rough%2520Night happened for real.

At the end of “Apocalypto”: Jaguar Paw sees Europeans for the first time. Question:

Do you think that Mayan would be all the better for escaping his civilisation in the twilight of it’s Post-Classic period in favour of that with a religious culture based on murder, war crimes & abortion (Hosea 13:16) and polygamy (Solomon: 700 wives, 300 concubines)?!

advanced language models

Klingon: now a fully realised artificial language - with fluent speakers of such - after gibberish devised by James ‘Scotty’ Doohan used at the beginning of the first “Star Trek” film.

Baronh: created specifically for “Banner/Crest of the Stars”. Show us blue-haired space elves, OP.

We’ll wait.

Harassment and abuse aren’t merely “disagreement” and “free speech”. Even if one were to take you at your word that you genuinely don’t mean it and perceive it as anything more than disagreement, your intentions don’t matter as much as you’d hope if there’s a big disconnect between them and what you actually do.

Or, alternately, if what you’re talking about genuinely isn’t harassment or abuse (and that seems to be a big if here), then people still have the right to treat you and judge you just as harshly as you do others. Being religious isn’t any sort of immunity from being called out for what others see as bad behavior, even if you don’t see what you do as “bad behavior”.

If people treated Christians the way Christians treat LGBT and non Christians, their persecution fantasies would be reality.

People invade a country, force their way of life and expect to be catered to. Who is the savage? Choose carefully now

“teach them letters”

I take particular exception to this: the Mesoamerican civilisations all had record keeping means. The Spaniards deliberately and conscentiously destroyed them, because they needed to uproot the local cultures and replace them with their bastardised version of christianity.

“stupid simplicity of the politically correct propaganda”

Funny, because the politically correct agenda, whatever that is, does not aim to excuse genocide. That is kind of a big plus, in my book.

TachyonBlue #conspiracy #ufo #crackpot

“The media is largely silent”

Possibly because there is no means to corroborate any of this.

“ Institutions are hesitating or afraid.”

Funny, because I work in an institution that would definitely have heard of this, and yet, nothing transpired. Almost as if there was in fact nothing.

“We are not roleplaying”

Which makes you delusional, rather than simply attention - seeking.

Except, of course, that she is a savage. She actually does not know any better. Her people are illiterate and polygamous and live in longhouses or wigwams with timber logs for walls, or woven mats, and dirt floors. No chimney. No window. No glass in the window.

Meanwhile, oh so civilised Europe had torture as an essential part of the judicial process because you could not convict people without two eyewitnesses or a confession no matter how strong the circumstantial evidence, was executing people, predominately women and girls, over superstitions, often involving tests designed to be fatal in the case of innocence but that’s okay because she will go to Heaven and be given a proper burial, was embroiled in a schism that would start its horrific thirty-year climax only one year after Pocahontas’s death…
