  1. The scene was deleted so that it could be shown in bigoted countries such as those in Asia and The Middle East that think that it's a good idea to promote traditional family structures and don't like the idea of normalizing or promoting deviant behavior. Personally, I think they should have left it in to send the message that bigots don't get to enjoy cool new Disney movies.
  2. Apples...

    How fucking old are you that you don't know how to eat quietly? Parents never got around to teaching you? Thank god the second amendment protects my rights to blast primitive chomping cattle

  5. I was actually wondering how Hunter got it before Charlie tbh. She's close enough to a man in my book to get a pass (This is a joke Charles, we love you)
  6. Speeding

    I spent the entirety of my teenage years probably because I thought it was fun and got me places faster (it doesn't). Never had a ticket. When I went to a Uni 6 hours away, I would drive home every other weekend to visit my gf and family. I got 3 tickets blowing through bumfuck nowhere's where the road is two lanes with a median, wide open, no traffic and no turn offs. I normally just drive the speed that seems appropriate and comfortable rather than checking my speed and signs every second. I had two at about 70 in a 55 and one for 61 in a 55. I almost always drive 5-10 over, as most other drivers and cops in my area do. Occasionally, I will go out for snacks at 2-3AM and pull 140 on the empty interstate for fun.
  7. I'm sure you're more than capable of doing the math on that one Usually when we want to keep things out of places, even the simplest form of security such as armed officers, metal detectors, or even single entrances do a fair job of keeping undesirable items out of theme parks, government buildings, airports, stadiums. Just one of these is often enough to queue misanthropes in that they should go somewhere else to do their devious deeds or do something better with their lives. Most of these individuals are prone to anxiety and paranoia in the first place, so absent of full confidence of success, most won't even bother attempting their malicious plans.
  8. What do you think motivates a grown man to dress up as a voluptuous woman in front of a bunch of children. Also guns are already banned in schools you silly goose

  10. Alright, I'm listening, but what are YOU doing differently from what's been done for the last 20 years. We've had marches, bills proposed, debates, discussions, we've voted many times. Are you simply proposing that the politicians we voted for have done nothing and we should keep talking about it until they eventually decide to pass something? Alright I listened to the whole thing. It's all emotion and appeal to authority. The only part you could draw from it as somewhat meaningful is just him saying is we need x x x I support, it's reasonable, everyone agrees, America! What's supposed to be the point of takeaway from this?
  11. This comes off as very vague and dismissive. What's the cause of who is to blame for this phenomenon? What can people who might be inclined to sympathize with you do to incite actual change? Or are you just sperging about democracy functioning as intended lol
  12. Hello Gamers! As you all may know, pride month is upon us and SG has donned it's usual fruity clad. It is time again for us to asses ourselves and how we treat our marginalized and vulnerable members of the LGBTQ community in our community. You may ask yourselves "What more can we do?". We've already banned members that sought to groom gay children. We've already banned words that may give PTSD to gay children in the community. What could possible be left? To answer this, we must look no further than the T in LGBTQ: Transgenders. This group of poor souls find themselves unable to live their lives comfortably in the usual sexual dynamics that most of us participate in and, as such, may find it necessary to change their names, pronouns, or bodies to live their lives in some degree of comfort. This can result in feelings of discomfort, hurt, dysphoria, and trauma should someone use the wrong words to refer to them. With this in mind, it is important that we do all that we are able to in order to protect these members of the community and prevent accidental harm from besetting them. I am asking that we come together as a community to make the appropriate and necessary changes in support of this marginalized group. The option for users to share their gender status on their profile must be added. A feature for users to add their pronouns next to their name should also be implemented. This will be necessary apart from our name change feature as pronouns are not constant and may change many times in the 90 day lockout the name change feature has. Lastly, it must be made a punishable offense to misgender members that choose to express their pronouns on the forums - it's completely ridiculous that this hasn't been taken seriously already. If these terms are not taken seriously, if the Board is not comfortable implementing them at this time - that is completely understandable. However, it would be dishonest to say that the community supports or is any more than indifferent to these individuals and should take down the Pride cladding promptly to prevent it from appearing as a grift. Thank you all for reading and supporting this pressing issue, I hope the community can come together and make the right choice on this!
  13. You don't remember people saying Sandy Hook was staged/planned and every shooting since? How every shooter has been on psychoactives? On a serious note, I don't actually believe any of that garbage I just think it's funny I do still think it's unethical to tell hundreds of thousands of children their suffering is a result of a brain defect and they need to permanently alter it's chemistry rather than just admitting it's a rational outcome of living in inhuman conditions. Make a thread of it grinds your gears that hard.
  14. See you on the news! Why do you assume I would go out of my way to hurt people? I just want to live with my life and rights unmolested, and with the ability to defend myself from anyone who seeks to.
  15. You're missing the point, I see mine as inarguable so I'll defend it with my life if I see necessary, I'm not opposed to others doing the same. If you really want to play ball though, the right to defend against external potentially hostile or tyrannical powers is fundamental to preserving any inalienable or inarguable right - including abortion if you're inclined to feel that way, I think you really have to do some mental gymnastics to presume that someone doing something for you is inalienable though.
  16. Killing innocent children and abandoning responsibility for your actions and to your offspring = cringe Defending your ability to protect yourself and family from external threats = swag Please keep the outside unrelated discussions drawn for comparison to a minimum, it does nothing to further the comparison and just seems like you attempting to twist things to appear hypocritical in some way as if that nullifies the argument somehow.
  17. I didn't dodge this in Discord. I would use violence
  18. Sorry I neglected to extend the argument to larger groups of people, I assumed you were able to do that on your own. It's possible or plausible that the majority of voters are not educated on most of the platforms a candidate is running on, or that candidates or parties will push legislation they didn't run on. Voters are already mostly limited in their choices in candidates by their respective parties, but they have no recourse once candidates are actually elected. This isn't a direct democracy, it's representative, and the majority of voters aren't educated enough to even understand the language being used or consider versions of reality alternative to the one their entertainment box is spitting out. If you are fighting for an issue affecting a minority of people that most people aren't educated on, if you are fighting for something that most people would agree with but are too pacified to do anything about, it's not impossible to make waves. I think your argument about the military crushing the populus is already weak and inaccurate, but even still, you don't have to blow everything up to the federal level immediately - maybe a local government outlaws ICEs in the wrong county, use your imagination. Why not lol, if there's enough of them to overthrow an institution and not enough on the other side of the aisle to stop them, it doesn't really sound like they have a minority opinion, just a minority of people. Ironically enough, I prefer to live my life as unmolested by larger institutions as possible, I think participation in the local community is much healthier. I'm not sure how this is relevant in any right, do you have some solution to opting out? The basis of the legislative branch is hypotheticals, actuality is handled by the executive and judicial branch I don't need to use appeal to probability to support my point, whether it happens or not is irrelevant, if the possibility exists is all that matters.
  19. Like I said, that's up to you man. Weird comparison to make here, do you not think some rights might be more important than my right to vote? If we all vote that you can't have kids, is that cool with you? The democratic system, corrupt or uncorrupted, is not free from the possibility of tyranny or infringing on freedoms. I don't think I said anything about taking over the government, but if that's what you think is appropriate and you can actually manage it
  20. That's up to you. If an issue is so crippling to you that it drives you to that, I'm not gonna stand in your way lol. Once again, if it has or hasn't happened is irrelevant, it's a right that people should have whether they are going to exercise it or not. Personally I think people are too pacified by readily available entertainment and drugs to hold any meaningful protest or revolution in the first world, even if the government did something horrific like bombed civilians. It doesn't help that any time someone is driven mad by the structure of society and does something about it everyone just goes "should've taken his meds". Personally, I'm not invested in your plight, I will probably vote against them, and there's nothing you can do about it. I don't see healthcare or access to medication as an inalienable right, but if I were in your shoes, assuming I'd done everything I could civilly, I'd get a large group of people and go talk to the decision makers about violating your rights. You know their names, you know where they meet I concede I skimmed a bit too hastily. There you go, that's a start to some solutions that could help straighten things out, good on you.
  21. Yes, the government is going to, but that isn't the bar for when people need a deterrent or exit plan. If the government COULD is what's important, which they can. It's fundamentally meant to be and universally considered a 'social contract', but it's not one you sign or choose to be a part of, it's one you get to tear up of the time calls. Once again, it's not about is it going to, or has it happened before (it has), it's a fundamental necessity if the possibility exists, which it does, inherently. The most clear alternative to this perspective, the one I suppose you sympathize is "Yeah it could happen, but I think that's unlikely and it's worth risking the freedom of myself and the following generations of we can cut down on some of the violence right now." Fill me in if you have a more clear explanation. Oh look everybody, the government is fucking him in the ass and there's nothing he can do about it! You have such a one track mind sometimes that it's insane. There's nothing you think that can be done that would increase the quality and effectiveness of parenting? Really? Will update later, more to say, gotta finish chopping these onions
