TabithaES

My understanding is that the hate is mostly related to influencers selling you weight loss products while hiding the fact they struggled until they found Ozempic, then to a lesser degree some people think it's cheating or w/e.

> This isn't something that used to need to be said.

Yeah, why are we talking about this random white supremacist like he's Princess Diana? That's the most disturbing part of this.

> He sincerely wants peace for the galaxy.

I understand this is probably prequel or EU lore, but I wonder if this claim can be justified using only the original trilogy.

Kamala had a very weak campaign: student loans, economy, inflation, rising income inequality, attempting to flank Trump from the right on immigration and pro-police, spent most of the time pandering to right wingers in ways that alienate and spit in the face of her voting base (Liz Cheney? seriously?), doubled-down on pro-genocide of Palestinian talking points directly to a pro-Palestine district.

And let's talk about Ukraine. There's 2 possible solutions to the war in the Ukraine. Full military aid of Ukraine (might start WW3) and full endorsement of Ukraine's peaceful surrender (peace in our time?). But there's also the least-good solution, which is to give Ukraine just enough support to draw out the war long enough to send all their able bodied population into a meat grinder? A sacrifice the Biden administration was happy to make, just to spite Russia. A clear message to the world what kind of friend the US is.

I think the establishment (which Trump is merely the right wing of) intentionally ran a weak candidate to continue the illusion of Democracy to the average person. The average person is probably going to wake up to this unless the US government can find more loopholes like facebook/twitter to put an end to freedom of speech.

> asshole mods, asshole users

Both scenarios too common to judge.

A lot of men who aren't in the top of the ladder presume by default that they're competing with some random other potential boyfriend, or an army of gigachads, etc..

More often, the truth is, you're competing with how happy I am by self when I'm just single. And it's sad how many guys blunder in something as basic as treating me like I'm a person.

> The pickup artists are on the bleeding edge of the "craft" if you can call it that.

A lot of people are picking up on how PUA types are actually annoying grifters who think bullying women is flirting, or even that some forms of PUA are actually blatantly sociopathic.

A lot of them are pretending like they have some special insight beyond the fact that they a.) are conventionally mostly attractive b.) are at least a tiny bit charismatic c.) had enough self-confidence to try doing literally anything at all.

I hate having to deal with the aftermath of endless men approaching me at random who think "being an asshole" is flirting. It's so annoying.
