Yeah I wouldn't have an issue with them if they weren't so incompatible with most of the programs and sites I like to use. It makes them super inconvenient to work with. I know some apps are catching up and supporting them, but it feels like the adaptation is slow and patchy which makes it difficult to know which programs will support webp at some point and when.

I say just let it continue to lose its brand value by muddying the waters.

It's not counterproductive when one side wants to do horrible things to people like me and my friends and the other doesn't. When one side actively endangers people and takes their rights away and the other doesn't. Those are very, very real issues to a lot of people, and acting like that doesn't matter at this point is just willful ignorance. You don't have to identify with one side to openly disagree with the other. You can prefer a system without parties or teams without refusing to stand up against a team that already exists, whether you like it or not, and has made their horrible views very well known.

But you're not just defending centrists, you're responding to claims people make about centrists by saying "but I'm not like that so obviously not all centrists are like that". Your reply to pthaloblue elsewhere in the thread is an example of this. You clearly present yourself as a centrist there in direct response to someone talking about centrists. You seem to be arguing about this from the point of view of someone who feels like they're being personally attacked even though based on the actual beliefs you've mentioned and your own dislike of labels by all accounts you're not a centrist and thus not an example of what centrists are like.

Not really. Right wingers seem to like centrists.

Scarborough literally has a reputation for being multicultural.

I've seen way more immigrant haters harassing women than immigrants. If your issue really is people harassing women then whether they're an immigrant or not should be irrelevant.

Yet you clearly identify as a centrist based on your comments on this thread. They're just as much a unit as the right or left based on how they behave and act on their political beliefs. Either you identify with centrists, in which case it's up to you to be the change you want to see in their reputation, or you don't, in which case their reputation shouldn't reflect on you.

I mean I only ever see the ones arguing with leftists actually admitting to being centrist, so if what you're saying is true then maybe the centrist arguing with rightists should consider improving their PR by being more vocal about it. Because y'all only ever seem to bring up your political affiliation when arguing with one particular side, so no wonder you've developed a reputation based on that.

The issue is that right now one entire party has become an issue that needs to be solved.

I don't remember if it always did every time from the beginning, but it did last time.

Anyone still trying to claim "both sides" at this point are just willfully ignorant.

I considered that at first but there are a lot of long title series that don't fall under the isekai umbrella, while the isekais that fall under the shounen umbrella tend to still have the shorter titles.

It just so happens that most isekai fall under the shoujo/ecchi/comedy umbrella, hence the large amount of overlap. So while there's definitely an association, I wouldn't necessarily consider it an isekai thing specifically.

Bro have you never watched a Futurama episode before in your life? They've ALWAYS made jokes about current events and pop culture. Those jokes a perfectly in-line with their usual humour.

Sure, but it ain't because of a dollar extra on spotify.

Those are two different genres. Most shounen series still have simpler titles. Jujutsu Kaisen, Demon Slayer, Black Clover, Chainsaw Man, My Hero Academia, Promised Neverland, etc. Ones with long titles tend to be comedy, shoujo, or ecchi.

Just because you want to vent about an ex with friends that doesn't mean you have to send your ex money. Even if you write "you suck" on the bills, you're still doing them a favour.

They raised the price by 1 whole dollar after however many years and y'all are acting like it's the tech apocalypse. This is hardly on the same scale as what Netflix is doing.

I didn't say anything about intent to kill, I'm not the person you initially replied to. What I'm saying is that a murder charge in Illinois (or Florida) has nothing to do with Texas. Different states have different qualifications for murder vs manslaughter, in some states abortion is considered murder for example, so if you want to make an argument for why someone would or wouldn't be charged with murder for booby trapping in Texas you should use an example from Texas.

That's in Illinois where a lot of what would constitute as manslaughter in other states gets grouped under second degree murder instead. So it depends a lot on the state.
