Women use the argument that inviting a guy to your bedroom, and taking off half your clothes is not an invitation for sex all the time. Do you believe you have the right to fuck a girl who grinds on you for a bit while you're alone, Chris? Regardless of what she says?

Listen to Big P--if your arguing with a leftist, use the "she shouldn't have been wearing a short skirt argument" and just extrapolate based on their arguments..IE "wearing a gun during a riot is not an invitation for conflict like wearing a short skirt even when alone in a bedroom is not an...

I mean, this is pretty much the story of our time in a nutshell. Its the reason for all the social upheaval and a lot of the degradation of institutional trust. Networked intelligence is a thing. Humans working in large groups or very larger groups..work much faster. The only limiting factor...

Remember--this same fact checker said section 230 doesn't confer the responsibility of allowing free speech onto social media companies even if they claim the protections under 230...Despite the fact that 230 includes the explicit intent of allowing the full breadth of speech/expression as its...

Thoroughly mediocre. The actual drug shit was good, but the "femicide" story so clearly had nothing to do with the story that it shit all over the pacing of the season. What an absolutely ham fisted inclusion just because they wanted to do a little "social advocacy". One thing I did LOVE though...

Does the law stipulate the exemption exists for those reasons?

It does really highlight how the right is desperately trying to do the right thing to propegate a stable country by controlling its zealots. And the left, meanwhile, sees the right's attempts at compromise and stability as vulnerability for their zealots to exploit. The right is a bunch of fools...

In the end, its dichotomies like this which really are the epitome of our times. The Rittenhouse case exemplifies this, so does Babbit vs Floyd. In the Rittenhouse case, the right is championing the very personification of what we should all hope for in our youth. A young man who has been...

So again you're using posts on a message board as an equivellent to the stated public opinions of both mainstream media pundits and major, national level politicians? Like you understand there is a difference there right? Give me anyone in a major policy making position or a major publication...

Can you give me an example of the right doing this?

If you want a little pick me up, check out the youtube comments. The left has REALLY lost the narrative on this. I hope the fucking media keeps pounding out their bullshit--this is a far bigger red pill moment than Trayvon. I'm even seeing leftist cult shitholes discussing how bad the media is.

Most conservatives act like abused spouses do. They twist logic and context to try and put the blame on themselves. If Liberals feel a weird kind of martyr like parental burden toward black people, conservatives feel that same feeling toward Liberals. You can always see it in their eyes when...

It's such an insane argument...its a perfect example of double think. They are essentially saying Kyle should have known anyone out there that night was looking for trouble because of how bad the riots were.....But their dogma doesn't apply this to the people who attacked Kyle.

I could actually see this from Martin though. Martin is big on the 'dig two graves revenge' thing. Wouldn't be surprised at all if in the books the intention is for Arya to get fucked while seeking revenge. I mean, we'll never know now anyway..so meh.

They've even lost reddit. A bunch of sane posts saying this should never have gone to trial lol...how badly do you have to be losing for a nexus of the cult like Reddit to be on the side of someone they think is a white supremacist.

Yeah, the narrator is bad. Like...literally her pronunciation, tone and just the general quality of her speech sucks ass. The narration was always big part of the mystique of the show and kind of added to the world but her stilted, shitty delivery is ripping me out of it.

Sony might not have perfected the formula--but they are doing something Marvel should have begun doing back in Phase 2/3...Giving the "villains" their own movies. Thanos should have gotten his own movie. Iron Man 2 or 3 should have been about Ultron's origin (With Tony losing), and lead into...

Making witch hunts official? Zero tolerance policies?

In the end I think we're going to see Perlmutter and Fiege would probably have both failed on their own--but together, they cancelled out each others worst tendencies enough to catch lightning in a bottle.

When Siona is tripping on spice, the entire conversation heavily implies prescience is being used to hunt humanity down--and Leto specifically says that's why she must breed. There are a lot of other examples, but I'd have to read it again--they are all subtle implications but there are a bunch...

Yeah, he does surprisingly well in physical roles. That said, they really do need to feed him a few hamburgers for the second part of the film if its made. Him bulking up some would go a LONG way into selling the idea that he's gone from boy to man in the desert.

Yes, perfectly fine. I'm sure even strict parents would be fine with this. Nothing really uncomfortable at all unless you're against all violence shown.

Don't ask about space jews and the emp if you will "flick shit" for having it explained. Also, Lynch's version sucked in that regard..It wasn't a hierarchical relationship. That was the whole point of the post--they were dependent on each other. The Guild had a massive weakness in not having an...

Ahh, probably the second time they are in there--haven't watched it in a while, my bad. But it doesn't matter...Because how Lynch shows the relationship is not like the books, and you asked about the books. As said, the Emperor has a more symbiotic relationship with them. They didn't just treat...

Not sure what you're remembering--they didn't threaten him. He looks intimidated, but they only ask him to share what he's up to and then order him to kill Paul. Plus, you asked about the books--you didn't mention the 1984 movie. The Emperor's relationship with the guild, being their strong...

It was never mentioned, or even intimated that the guild was behind everything in this film. Not once.

Denamian's explanation is a great summary. Herbert modeled a lot of this after early feudal periods, not late (Which is what most people's perception of feudal is from, IE "I am the state"). If you want more specifics that might be spoilery, click.

Good eye, yeah, they were most likely from the guild. As others have said, not sure if they'd be the actual navigator since he's supposed to be in a huge tank--but they were probably the adherents who run around and take care of the navigators.

There is a line about how the spacing guild needs spice to navigate, but they aren't in the movie. (The big ship transporting all the other ships is operated by those things). Its a big hole in the film given Guild Navigators are actually interfering/controlling shit more than even the Bene...

They shouldn't even do a part 2 film...Just go right into a 10 part series. Its a great spot to do that because you can use Paul's time in the desert to explore the politics of the Empire and the great houses, the religious stuff, and other aspects they glossed over, while also showing Paul...

There is a single line that tries to explain this..."When you kill another, you kill yourself". The dream was supposed to show that by Paul killing this man, he was also killing the naive boy (Himself), so the Kwisatz Haderach could rise. I think it was just supposed to show the audience why...

Its a huge failing of both the TV series and Lynch movie that neither of them focus on troop quality. Its literally the central premise of the book and why Leto walked into the trap. In this one, he does a really good job of showing the kind of "tiers" in quality between the troops...

Wow my expectations were low, and somehow this was still disappointing. How do you get the tone of the show so far from the mark? Everything was bad, from the actors (For Spike and Faye), to the atmosphere, to again, just the tone. This felt more like a live action Archer than live action...

Pretty good. Villeneuve was born to make this movie. Only thing that bothered me was that it wasn't an HBO series instead, they didn't cut much of what I'd consider 'essential'--but the visuals and atmosphere were so good that I'd have gladly sat through 10 hours of minutia world building just...

It looks like someone smashed together the Burton and Nolan movies. Really walking the line between gritty/real and comic-atmosphere. Which, imo, is going to be the absolute hardest to pull off. The trailer isn't leaving me with a lot of confidence.

I think I got aids just from watching that PvP, fuck me I thought EQ pvp was bad.

its a prequel to the age that we've seen in the films, its about the early days of the Shire and Tolkien's environment, so we're an indigenous population of Harfoots, we're hobbits but we're called Harfoots, we're multi-cultural, we're a tribe not a race, so we're black, asian and brown, even...
