Yep, really sad. Just because the algorithm can detect I'm a young man, my explore page gets flooded with sexual content. I never search for that on Instagram, and I only ever open them to select the option 'stop showing me content like this' - and yet, just because my interests are otherwise very male, I will never stop being shown a steady stream of onlyfans girls.
And yep, same as the free love generation in the 60s and 70s. Lot of pedos there. Lot of pedos in the hippy scene in general, even to this day.
that was the one I envisaged lol
And I swear he's got a shit bucket too
nvm actually
same mine different dead end

I had a similar story to some of comments chaining off this comment - atheist 11 year old debate bro adopted by the Dawkins/Yianopoulous/Hitchens anti-religious anti-feminist islamophobe pipeline, then growing out of it as fast as I got sucked into it.
I think right wingers that are truly commited to the 'facts and logic' shit can be especially susceptible. I found myself on the right in part because of my western chauvinist upbringing, but also because my main feeling was that society was lying to me. Everything felt so fake. The visible solutions were half assed 'left' parties like Democrats/Labour, who seemed to speak in jargonous platitudes, whose policies resembled faux-progressive slam poetry. Nothing ever seemed to get better under them. So I fell towards the 'tell it like it is' crowds. And yet, even within that crowd the contradictions are severe - I was still atheist, pro-choice, loved nature and hated climate change...
Then I discovered 'dirtbag leftism' - with all of its hidden truths, undeniable facts of intervention that 'say it like it is' right-wingers had concealed, explanations that finally 'felt' right, with a scientific (logic-centered) approach to politics. Leftism also has all of the spikes and barbs and anger that the feelgood progressives deny. It all just felt right.
Here I am, 4 years later, feeling like I've finally cut through all the bullshit, writing my dissertation on Western intervention in South America.
OJ plays Leslie's buddy Nordberg, and he has one of the best death scenes in cinema:
Y'all should try the Black and Chrome edition if you're already a big fan
it's a cool take on it
Lets see what happens. Ukraine's case at the moment has not come to decision, but they told Russia to "immediately suspend the military operations" in Ukraine, while waiting for the final decision on the case.
Considering the death toll difference I think the ICJ will be forced to at least advise Israel to suspend military operations. If they don't they'll reveal themselves as unrepentant western dogs.
and then she goes on to condemn Venezuela
given all of the damning evidence against Elliot Abrams I actually don't think her line of questioning was that great.
That was probably me. I realise that I overreacted or hyperbolised it, and that some of my sentiment was probably just a wider anti-anime sentiment. I came down too heavy on one side and had a puritanical take.
However, looking at the images once more, and some of the images posted in this thread (by the same artist) and people's reactions to them - is it really that puritanical to suggest that the artist intended them to be sexually attractive?

A very interesting part of this to me is the framing of war/invasions as "conflicts prosecuted by democracies".
If I was presented this quote in isolation, I would assume he's saying 'democracies are prosecuting people in conflicts for war crimes', - BUT HE'S NOT.
He's calling the act of war/invasion itself a 'prosecution' - hammering home the point that the West is the rightful world police - the judge, the jury, and the executioner. Imperialism happens because (insert country) is guilty.
Judge Dredd style foreign policy.
