  • There’s so many great things about the movie, but it’s also one of the most understood.

    It’s just insanely ironic that so many people misunderstand it. They 110% think they do, and explaining it to them usually doesn’t help and you get the same reaction as in the movie.

    That being said, I had a 60+ year old woman yell “your car is small fag!” At me like a week ago in traffic. It was actively snowing and she had her window all the way down to smoke a cig, I honestly don’t know what I did to upset her.

    But I just immediately pictured the dildo car from Idiocracy and couldn’t stop laughing for way too long. She just said it so hateful, but it was such a stupid insult. She had the charlie kirk “freedom” on her back window, so I think she may have just been driving around looking for anything to tell about.



  • If you wanna read the whole thing deep, visit my main community “BharatReforms” and join it for further similar and informative updates.

    Just so everyone is aware what “Bharat Reform” actually means:

    It’s a far right extremist pro-Modi movement in India, which is the same the other communities OP moderates, just slightly less blatant to ease people into the hate.

    Hindutva, right-wing ethno-nationalist political ideology that defines the cultural identity of India in terms of Hinduism and desires to make India an overtly Hindu nation-state. The term Hindutva was first defined in the early 1920s by Indian nationalist activist and politician Vinayak Damodar Savarkar. Today it is most closely associated with the Bharatiya Janata Party (Hindi/English: Indian People’s Party; BJP), one of the main political parties in India, and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (Hindi: National Volunteer Organization; RSS), a nonpolitical Hindu nationalist paramilitary organization. Hindutva supporters, or Hindutvavadis, claim to advocate for India’s significant Hindu-majority population—as of 2011 India was 79.8 percent Hindu, 14.2 percent Muslim, and the rest a mix of Christians, Sikhs, and others—and seek to redefine the idea of secularism enshrined in the Indian constitution in terms of Hindu rights.

    Hindutva as an ideology must be understood as distinct from Hinduism as a religion—not all adherents of Hinduism subscribe to Hindutva—and Savarkar’s original definition asserts Hindutva as an ethnic category and eschews a specific religious connotation. In current practice the ideology tends to be strongly pro-Hindu and staunchly anti-Muslim. However, supporters often define Hindutva in purely cultural terms as a “way of life.”

    It’s like rolling up MAGA and Zionists into one group







  • But that doesn’t leave many options for the victims. Maddie, who said she’s a 23-year-old pre-med student, woke up on New Year’s Day to an image that horrified her. On X, she had previously published a picture of herself with her boyfriend at a local bar, which two strangers altered using Grok.

    I’ve thought a lot of things would kill twitter…

    But if every time a woman posts a picture of herself, and neckbeards reply asking twitter AI to sexualize her, and the AI responds right there with it where everyone following the original account can see…

    I truly don’t understand how or why any women are still using it.



  • The reason this stuff is important to understand, is so we can fight it effectively and prevent it from happening again:

    Sociopathy is normal human variation…

    It’s associated with criminals, because the earliest definitions required criminality, so the only population they’d check were violent criminals, which reinforced flawed beliefs that every sociopath was a violent criminal. Medical community is making progress, but it’ll likely take decades to shake that stigma so it can actually be studied properly.

    Shit, a high enough IQ is almost guaranteed to come along with ASPD.

    trump is way worse than just someone with ASPD, he’s most likely making a conscious effort not to care about others if it benefits himself, or even enjoys hurting others. Someone with actual ASPD doesn’t get joy from hurting people, they just don’t really care unless they’re putting a conscious effort into caring.

    Which many do. But many people without ASPD want to cause pain, because they’re shitty people and fully understand what the people they’re hurting feel, if trump couldn’t feel the suffering of others in anyway, he wouldn’t go out of his way to hurt so many people.

    See, your son would learn to deal with scenarios like this if he followed my advice.

    With your plan he’s going to end up like you and be completely incapable of interacting with people who don’t treat him with kids gloves for being the owner’s kid…

    You still can’t even comprehend that people would treat the owners son differently.

    You are wildly out of touch, and if you cared for your son you’d make sure he wasn’t. You’re setting him up for failure but you don’t give a fuck unless the person warning you treats you like the owners wife.

    Working for your dad is not the same as work experience…

    I started going with my dad on weekend masonry jobs as soon as I could wipe my own butt, and was “working” as soon as I was able.

    It was real work, and hard. But at the end of the day I was still working with my dad and that’s not the same.

    Even if you own a large business with 100 people, everyone knows your son is the owners kid and the experience they gain won’t translate well.

    Let your son get a normal job for a kid his age, unless the plan is full nepotism and you’re going to give him the company eventually.


  • It’s crazy how many people try to be smug about this.

    All you’re doing is telling everyone it took shit this blatant and obvious for you to notice if you think this is a new problem.

    I understand being ignorant of another country’s system of government, but how do you not know all the fucked up shit that’s been happening before this to think it’s new?

    The “big 3” have been doing this shit for centuries, and before that it was just different countries.

    Shuffling the countries around like you want to won’t solve shit. It just perpetuates the system itself…

    Have you put any thought into this?
