Let's do a hypothetical, let's assume I'm a Barbie Girl In A Barbie World, what then?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

That would logically mean that things are plastic, ergo, fantastic.

I just can't take the idea of Ben Shapiro with facial hair seriously. He looks like a child whose siblings glued dog fur onto his face while he was sleeping as a prank. Like a suit kid who wears flannel and sharpies on a beard every morning because he wants to be a lumberjack when he grows up.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

The problem is that his facial hair is a different color than his scalp hair or eyebrows. His lower face and upper face look like different people.

This sounds like the title of an erotic fanfic

When you've chosen a new look you don't have the sauce to pull off but your friends don't care enough about you to tell you

He was probably ordered to do the beard thing to look "more manly".

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Serious, masculine men spend their time wearing suits, drinking whiskey, smoking cigars, and talking about barbie for the better part of an hour.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

It really must be exhausting having to virtue signal like that all the time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I love how he capitalized DESTROYS.

Yes, nothing proves you are intelligence and power incarnate like obsessively criticizing a live movie adaptation of a children's toy.

It's sadder when you remember he's probably lashing out as a failed screenwriter deep down.

Chuds get told, "There's potential here, give it a little more work and you might have yourself a film"

and immediately rage-quit into the grifter circuit

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

If you've ever read/listened to any of his fictional stories there's absolutely no potential there.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

What, you didn't like his story where a "race hustler" orchestrates an elaborate plan to have a cop shoot a black kid causing riots all over the country?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

So let me get this straight: They assume black people to be dumb but assume they are intelligent enough to plot riots across an entire continent all for the simple motive of "because I feel like it lol"?

In fascism, the enemy is deadly and weak at the same time.

Get ready for a wild ride.

CW: this gets racist quicklyThe secondary antagonist - Levon Williams, wants to kick start a race war so he convinced a child to point a toy gun at the cop because he knows that the police officer would have no choice but to murder a (I think 10 year old, might be younger) kid.

At the same time he spreads word around the black community of Detroit so that they pour out of the woodwork immediately after the cop kills the kid so they can all be witnesses, while at the same time destroying all but one CCTV camera because if the murder is caught on any other camera people would see that the cop was in the right.

He then uses his newfound influence as the figurehead of the protests to get his crack dealing, civil rights mentor assassinated so that he can leverage his death into becoming mayor of Detroit on account of being the only one able to control the violent mob of BLM thugs.

This gives Levon the political power to lower minimum IQ on police requirements so black people can join the Detroit police, so that he can use them to cut power to the suburbs and lynch white people.

you know I didn't expect it to get more racist at the end. I was expecting the level of racism up until the end when wow

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There's a scene after Levon has his mentor killed but before he becomes mayor where the protesters are stopping the cop that killed the kid from being released from prison by surrounding it.

All hope is lost until a mob of bikers led by an anti-enviromentalist terrorist ride in wearing shirts emblazoned with a racist slogan (something along the lines of "kill all thugs") the bikers fire on the protesters, starting a riot.

This is all, of course, played as the bikers being heroes rescuing an innocent man from a lynch mob

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

still can't get over the fact the protagonist actually murders a child in this movie

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

The narrative is split between four main characters, all but one of them is directly responsible for a child's death. Truly a book of all time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I love how it's just implicit that a cop killing a child with a toy gun is morally correct.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

is that the one where a kid is wearing a Homer Simpson shirt saying "hey up yours buddy" lmao

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

"UP YOURS DADDY-O" was said by an evil 5 year old on a playground in the villain origin story of up-yours-woke-moralists

Still think it's fucking hilarious Felix described it as "The Turner Diaries, but not as good"

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

How bad is it?

The Turner Diaries might as well be renamed Little Timmy's First Fanfic. The protagonist is an overpowered Mary Sue that decides to kill everyone for not being as cool as he is. The end.

how do you do this and think you're a serious person

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Can you imagine this thumbnail posted in something like 2010?

I would think either some kid ripping apart Barbie dolls like Sid for 45 minutes... or porn.
