funny thing luigi was originally a right winger before he shot the guy, guess the msm arnt going to reveal that fact that he was originally one of thier own.
I mean, to be fair, when I was younger my viewpoints changed as often as I changed my underwear
Nasty
Every month?
Sometimes every 2 or 3 months. Seemed like a reasonable time frame!

Yeah well I think I don’t have any real viewpoints which is also a viewpoint I guess. I just adopt things based on a whim or need. One day a commie, another ancap. Do these words mean anything anymore
I guess all that counts at the end of the day is how well off you are and clear conscience and the paths to achieve that are myriad
There is nothing honest I can say about Luigi because fundamentally I don’t care. Some American drama, another one in the long streak of news. There is no hate, there is no love. The only constant is indifference
Let’s talk about something interesting for once like color theory or classical paintings.
if ideologies feel like temporary costumes, maybe the real focus is the pragmatic pursuit of well-being and a clear conscience. The modern news cycle thrives on manufactured stakes, and indifference might just be the sanest response.
Don’t you all not feel burnt out from the constant outrage?
I don't have any hard set-in-stone viewpoints either, to be fair. I feel like I have a set of core beliefs values, but otherwise I'm fairly impressioniable and feel differently depending on the specific topic. I never understood people who just label themselves by a specific ideology and then just base everything off of that.
I gotta say I feel a great deal of sympathy with what Luigi stands for though. Murder may be despicable, but if the common people don't stand up against the unfair system no one will - and I certainly feel no sympathy for the victim. Especially in this Trumpian era of tech-fascists trying to turn all of humanity into slaves.
However, I do agree with your take. The news are designed for shock value and quick consumption. It's not a meaningful pursuit - and I've personally spent too much energy on Trump.. although it's hard not to since I'm Danish and he wants to invade us..
Good luck with that singular thing lol. It’s just insane ramblings that will pass away leaving not even the dust
Most likely. But when the biggest military power in the world directly threatens you, you'd be stupid not to take precautions.
Remember: Nothing ever happens
Ehh, stuff definitely be happening. People also never thought that Russia would flat out invade Ukraine
Yeah and I remember that night like yesterday surrounded by multiple screens I have seen the exact moment when Russia crossed the border Live at like 4 AM
Since then Russia were supposed to balkanize three times already. Nothing happened. Nothingburger
Now Macron says he will send troops. He won’t. Nothing will amount out of it.
Even Covid it was supposed to be a zombie virus and we would have a real zombie apocalypse. Nothing like that ever happened
Nothing ever happens
Tell that to the Ukrainian civilians being murdered every day. Your philosophy is stupid and inhumane. It's that of a grazing cow who doesn't care as his comrades are sent to become hamburgers. Maybe you'll care when it's your turn.
Why so serious, we are just having some shitposting Wednesday here comrade, no need to get up all in arms
If it’s any consolation to you I will be the first to leave the ship named Eastern Europe if it starts sinking and won’t get in anyone’s way while you all can do with this mess whatever the heck you want. Defend it, leave it, burn it. I don’t care
I would advise nuclear weaponry tho to get a good wasteland
Mooo! Moooo! You're an empty bovine.
I do not identify as a steak
No but seriously what shitty language has such a mediocre name calling. Ukrainian can’t be as I know it has many juicy bits. Maybe some muzzie dystopia or some soulless corporate country like Singapore
Cows, cows… hmm crypto loser in name. Must be India.
Then I won’t say anything more because your own country has bullied you more than I ever could
Lord, but you're a verbal driveller too. Can't shut up. I bet you get smacked in the mouth often...
It’s a sport, we are doing the traditional internet game of who will get offended first. So far you have only confirmed your dubious ancestry
Is this some dumbass "Eastern European" wisdom? No wonder the rest of the civilized world doesn't accept your university degrees.... Faux intelligensia drivel from someone that probably doesn't even play sport LOL.
No
Don't you understand this is the precise mindset that is powerless to resist fascism and in fact sets the table for it?
The point of the firehose is so you stop caring, congratulations you did it! Do you want a medal?
But it’s really hard to sympathise with anyone here. Someone killed somebody, somebody other killed someone other maybe, maybe not, depending on your beliefs and political stance.
People kill each other each day for myriad of reasons why is this particular case any more interesting?
Everyone has some kind of manifesto and stuff they really want someone to read. They think it is very important I am sure.
In the end it is just murderers doing the killing things not really that interesting unless you are into true crime in which case I prefer mysterious disappearances
