  • Yeah, lots of people in here saying "stop supporting corporations" as if it is not only easy, but simple to do.

    Wanna cook whole foods? You growing your own or buying them from the Amish?

    Wanna fix your own house (something I am currently doing), good luck finding a hardware/lumber supply that isn't owned by one.

    Want to use the internet?

    It isn't so simple. I think doing what you can with what you have is all anyone in the working class can really do. For some people it's more, others less.

    In the end, it seems like human history is a series of people with wealth and resources screwing over others, with brief bursts of progress.

    Ugj.

  • It's more of one guy's commentary on toxic masculinity gone completely out of hand, at least according to the author.

  • Words that you definitely weren't awarded for.

  • Modded FF7 on PC ruined PS1 FF7 for me. Wonderful stuff. 7th Heaven is such a joy.

  • Sounds like someone never won an award

  • Only after you've had them and they've left the house.

  • I always called it "Dances with Fergully"

  • .... I think you're mistaking this joke for an invitation to the validity of the historical remarks that were made in this.... meme

  • As always with the internet... a better thing takes it's place?

    Friend. That isn't usually the standard.

    I still mourn Portal of Evil. It was my reddit before reddit.

  • Suuuuuuuuure

  • No, he doesn't. He doesn't care about the damn status quo.

    He wants to feel important and he wants an easy life. That's it. He has no political or social motivations beyond

    "I don't wanna remember a thing, and I want to be someone important... like an actor."

    Cypher is the worst kind of asshole: One who doesn't care about a damn thing besides his own personal gain.

    Things weren't just as polarized. You are intentionally leaving out a HUGE culture shift in the people between The Matrix and the Dixie Chicks being canceled. And if you didn't understand that the world WAS different, even though there was just a few years apart, then you are DEFINITELY a child lying about their age.

    No one who was alive for both those incidents think they occurred in the same vein of history.

    Dixie chicks were post 9/11, if you're going to leave out that VERY important detail when talking about the times, then you don't understand how that day was basically the beginning of the shitstorm we have today.

    Matrix was before all that. And yes... things can seriously change within just a couple years.

  • Sounds like every republican and Democrat.

    There are no political statements in the matrix. It's a movie about being trans.

    When the movie was made, it was both people on the right and left who were shitty to the queer community. Trust me.

    Things weren't as polarized as they were today. I remember. I was 15 when I saw it in theaters.

    But okay, I guess it's a big movie bashing the right, instead of society as a whole.

  • Dude, that's almost every heavy in a movie.

    Is everyone you don't like on tv a conservative? Are you 12?

  • There is no indicator that Cypher is a conservative.

  • "Science is just stories told by people who read books to make people who don't read books feel dumb"

  • Plenty of American slaves also had rights, even as slaves.

    The more you know.
