How would you be "pushed?" Who would do it?
What does a random surgery being "pushed" on you have to do with this conversation? Did it have anything to do with gender? What do you mean by this?
I'm asking all these questions in attempt to discuss this in good faith.
So true. And it makes for good TV, plus the ragebait drives engagement on the socials (writing that made me ill).
I see this sentiment expressed more often by tankies, enlightened centrists, and Krazy Konservative Kommenters than mainstream media sources. Usually in reference to economic policy (and in fairness, the differences there are pretty subtle if we're looking at the mainstream).
What I'm seeing in media is an attempt to listen to "both sides." It's just that one side has grown more and more detached from reality, so airing their crazy unchallenged alongside a more normal perspective makes it look like the sides are on equal rhetorical footing. It's like what you get in a debate with Donny T and Biden.
Biden: Normal liberal policy ideas, maybe we leave the queer folks alone, maybe we do a little something on climate, etc.
SmallHandsOrangeBoy: Incoherent frothing about the immigrants, the gays, the "woke mind virus"
Reporters: And here are the candidate's positions, clearly no further comment or observation is required. Best not question the froth lest we be accused of bias!
Feels like a lot of reporters are either unused to dealing with a rising fascist bloc, hampered by corporate meddling, or complicit.
Really? BPA is an issue for sure but I've not seen anything about Microplastics specifically. It has to do something...
I see this as an absolute win.
Nobody ever mentions Africa is what's weird to me.
Okay but Henry Cavill is simply unfair to the rest of humanity.
I can't speak to a lot of these subgenres but power metal? Hehehe.
Dragonforce - Through Fire and Flames. Not just a meme, actually a great song and very technical.
Powerwolf - Blessed & Possessed. Werewolves that work for the Catholic Church? I have no idea how that's supposed to work but I'd read the book.
Sabaton - To Hell and Back. Sabaton writes a lot of songs about historical battles.
Powermetal has rather a lot of narrative ballads in it.
Oh, I've got a good folk metal band too:
Eluveitie - The Call of the Mountain. I love all the different instruments they use.
Alestorm - Drink. How the hell did I forget Alestorm? Who wants pirate metal?
Bloodywood - Dana Dan. Indian folk metal rap/rock ... with a lot of English? I don't know what's going on here but it's such a unique blend.
Someone mentioned Nightwish and here's my favorite song of theirs:
I was more thinking about immediate effects on people (analogous to the meme) but this is ... terrifying. Great. This is fine. It's all fine.
