I love the nuance of gaf.

Trump supporter might or might not said something offensive: 'trump supporter caught being racist!!!"

Video of guys torturing a white guy while yelling "fuck white people!" And "fuck trump!" Gets the thread title first word of "alleged" .

Dat nuance

Last time I popped in that thread some people seemed to be questioning whether or not they should even go to jail since it would ruin their whole lives.

Funny, right?  Yahoo Finance makes the worst typo possible. 

Except the GAF thread is titled, Yahoo Finance (accidentally?) tweets the "N" word

Hmm, was it an accident or did they mean it on purpose.  So hard to decide.  At least one shit-crown is "woke."

"Accident," most like trying to appeal to all of those Trump supporters in their comments section.

Sure, if that makes you feel better and sarcasm isn't a thing.

[benjipwns]

The issue I have with [people making jokes on twitter](aside from "n-gger") is, it's supposed to be mocking Yahoo, but there is no mention of it in the meme. I also hate how this will eventually be commandeered by white people and other non-black folks.

At least we now know Enzom21 is autistic and that explains his 'deal'.

[benjipwns]

He posts that in the middle of about twenty some examples of people clearly not mocking Yahoo but the black fellow Navy concept.

[benjipwns]

Starting his response with, "my hope is..." in the face of all that Trump and his team have done and are planning on doing, is very Chamberlain like.

Read this and thought he was comparing Obama with Wilt at first.

So....how do I Tumblr?

Alright, so I think I want to get into using Tumblr. I want to experiment with writing and doodling in 2017 but instead of just dropping things into the void I really do want to try and engage with the communities on the platform on a broader level and turn it into a social media channel the way I currently use Twitter

But just logging in its so daunting to begin to figure out where to start. I can search up any of my interests and find a billion blogs and posts about that topic but it seems so difficult to figure out which are good and which aren't and who's consistent and who's interesting, there's just an overwhelming amount of information to try and sift through. So much of everything seems to consist of reblogs of other people's things.

Can anyone offer me some effective tips on how to like, use Tumblr in a satisfying way?

 
Just upload or repost shit you like ?

There is no liberal answer to Fox News. Informing people of facts and information doesn't draw viewers and money as well as craziness and scaring people.

Reminded me of this amusing thread:

They'll Be Liberal For The Next 20 Years

Even once they begin the "White Power Hour" to replace Chris Hayes.

For years Fox was the conservative network, CNN was the liberal network, and MSNBC was the "moderate Republican" network, as evidenced by their shows The (Michael) Savage Nation and Alan Keyes is Making Sense (no this did not make any sense). I'm not talking about the reality, I'm talking about how they were perceived in the press. It didn't matter what happened on the networks, it just meant that Fox was justified by the existence of CNN, and vice versa, so there was balance in the world.

Then MSNBC took some steps to become actually liberal. And in primetime it was. Throughout the day it was news about politics in at a time when the president was a Democrat. Not exactly liberal, but the presidency does shape these things. And then of course there was Joe Scarborough's morning drinker show, which lasted about as long as their evening liberal block, but which everyone pretended didn't exist because it didn't fit the narrative.

It doesn't matter how many conservatives they hire. MSNBC will be "the liberal news network" for the next couple of decades in how they are perceived by the rest of the press.

Chris Hayes went from being a forceful voice to hemming and hawing and benefit of the doubting throughout the campaign last year, and Rachel Maddow went from a thorough intellect with a stubborn insistence on accuracy and relevancy and highlighting important stories passing under the radar of the mainstream media to an inexplicably dulled, repetitive second banana to Brian Pudd'nhead Williams with a tendency toward obsessive focus on meaningless errata and political trivialities.

Do they both still do some good work? Sure, but their lights have been dimmed as their network slid inexorably toward Fauxification and idiocy and became a wingnut welfare program for sort of socially liberal GOPs who wanted to demonstrate they weren't complete morons.

Is this kind of like how NPR has a reputation of being liberal?

Wingnut: many liberals are soooo smug.
Liberal: such as?
Wingnut: those smug hosts on NPR
Liberal: what makes you think those hosts are actually liberal?
Wingnut: you can tell they are liberal by how smug they are

*

Probably the reputation is maintained by their unsigned editorials. Of course, that is a feature, not a bug. Keep the editorials liberal, so people assume that the reporting is liberally biased. Then any story in favor of Democrats or against the GOP is viewed as a result of bias whereas when the NYTimes takes the conservative side, it's "even the liberal NYTimes" that takes that side.

More forceful verbs, please. It's not "perceived " so much as "told how to present itself." The 1% and the 0.001% really enjoy pretending they experience reality like the rest of us.

They don't, and one weird trick that always works if you talk to them in person is to remind them of that. It's funny how they squirm. Also it's amusing to pop their lies as a conversation starter. "All of the modern mainstream media is right wing or worse, I don't believe anything on it." And watch them struggle from there.

So yes? I dunno.

"Stay in your racial lane"

Inspiring words to live by !

[benjipwns]

"I have a dream, stay in your racial lane."

I can still hear his words today.

[VomKriege]

It's just that they've doubled down on the darkness to often comical extreme. Nolan films are often described as gritty and dark but there's still levity to break it up and there's still hope. Synder thought Batman should get raped in prison. It's a 90's view of darkness that's edgy to a fault.

Plus character appropriateness. Having an entire cinematic universe built around what works for Batman is pretty silly.

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=227761021&postcount=293

It's kinda surprising how a lie travels round the world twice before the truth has set off. Also ironic since Batman's been raped in the comic (Talia date raped him).

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=227761271&postcount=296

People are lucky Snyder did Watchmen. Terry Gilliam wanted Ozymandias to tell Dr Manhattan to undo everything and make it so that it was all a dream and the Minutemen were only comic book characters. Missing squids ain't got shit on Terry Gilliam.

This Bleepey dude is sooooo balls deep into Snyder.

[nachobro]

Terry Gilliam was going to direct/write the Watchman movie? Holy shit I want to live in that alternate universe.

[VomKriege]

Terry Gilliam was going to direct/write the Watchman movie? Holy shit I want to live in that alternate universe.

At one point he was attached to the project. Before or after Greengrass.
Though to be fair I think all of them would have encountered problems anyway. One of the two (Gilliam, I think but can't be arsed to verify) thought a mini-series was a better format ?

[clothedmacuser]

Confirmed.  Enzom21 doesn't know what a "joke" is.

No, not just people, black people are mocking it. Not everything is for everyone to make a joke about. If you're not black you most certainly shouldn't be making "distinguished black fellow" jokes.
That is exactly what you tried to do with your Seal picture.
Ask yourself this, would the joke have worked if Seal wasn't black?

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=227761874&postcount=195


The usual crowd that defends him and clutches pearls after he raises the racist flag aren't even touching this.  Maybe there will be one fewer humorless jerk-off on GAF soon.

[benjipwns]

Nolan's Batman films were just filmed gritty and dark. I'm always surprised that people consider them dark in terms of content or containing some kind of plot. Especially for Batman, it's like people are always comparing things to the 1960's Batman TV show or Batman and Robin or something. I remember people calling the Arkham games dark, when they're nowhere near your standard plot in the comics, and the first two are set in prisons from hell ffs.

Funny enough there's a thread on GAF complaining about Batman Returns. The people complaining about it being a slog while loving Nolan's six hour plotless framing issues are weirder than the Russian conspiracy mobs.

Also, I might contend Batman Forever is secretly the "darkest" of the films but Jim Carrey and Tommy Lee Jones' hamming it up distracts you from what's actually going on in it. Joel Schumacher claims there's an alternate more serious cut he made that cuts some of that for more Bruce Wayne scenes, I'm not sure I believe him (although the comic/novel adaptions apparently hint at it because they were written more off the script), but I'd like to see it someday. After Batman and Robin he initially was trying to make a serious version of Year One when they decided they'd do a soft reboot so maybe he was doing more of what Warner wanted with his final cut.

[benjipwns]

Ask yourself this, would the joke have worked if Seal wasn't black?

No, but it wouldn't have worked if he didn't call himself Seal either though.

The intended joke in the picture of the party where absolutely nobody is in the pool but all standing around it doesn't work if they aren't all black either.

[benjipwns]

Shit, his name actually is Seal.

Seal Henry Olusegun Olumide Adeola Samuel.

I'm such a fucking cac.

Of course not, you'll just keep pretending you were[n't] trying to get in on that "n-gger" joke fun.
It was joke that relates to the N-ggerNavy hashtag otherwise you wouldn't have made. You tried to be clever and sneaky... it wasn't, you weren't.

also his attempt to match it: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=227762985&postcount=314

If ever in a situation with Snyder's Batman it would save time and be less painful to put a bullet in your own head. I'd love to see Snyder do a predator mission in real life. A building filled with flgoons talking shit about Batman, the one guy who this was his last big gig before retirement, the guy who insisted the Batman was a myth cowardly criminals who are superstitious and scared of the dark tell themselves so they don't take on big gigs, and finally the deplorable fucker who admits to a string of other crimes and mentions his accomplices and how they all got away with it and where they are hiding. Snyder'd probably take out a few of them one by one until they notice they are fewer in numbers and then have Batman scare the shit out of them and make them act reckless and engage in some friendly fire after Batman throws smoke grenades, regular grenades and engaging in all sorts of ultra violence.

edit: so his endlessly detailed description made me look up the fight on youtube just to watch since it is a cool fight and alfred is awesome

three things i note randomly

1. Batman totally kills like at least six of these goons directly though it's not like he couldn't exactly without going out of his way, which is probably more accurate than the comic fights where nobody dies. Though I've never been too highly concerned with the Batman never kills thing since he totally has in the comics and it was bullshit to throw that in Jean-Paul Valley's face when it was an error of omission due to his mental health problems ffs Bruce, Dick and Tim. (The "no guns" rule however, is allowed as a fair "trauma", and if only so Morrison can let him violate it in Final Crisis in the most appropriate way. )
2. the guy whose head hits the wall's blood smear is missing in every other shot, SNYDER IS A HACK
3. the bad guys don't stop to reload, they drop their guns instead when batman gets close for knives, this is something probably not noticed a lot but that's actually a neat detail to me, it's really rare in action scenes, i imagine somebody else when approached with the idea that well guns do run out of bullets would have them reloading or something so bats can smack em around, SNYDER IS BRILLIANT (following to an associated video, in batman's "nightmare" the superman goons fuck this up and he drops a couple of them and then all of them don't even try shooting him despite being at proper range but instead just run at him to try and club him, batman gives himself unfair advantages in his dreams smh)

spoiler (click to show/hide)

also, he shoots like ten dudes with a handgun and snaps one of their necks in his nightmare, so i guess his precious rules don't apply in his dreams either

last three bans or three of last four have been for same thing i think, that's why i mentioned the "benji rules" notion, i'm assuming whatever mods are paying attention get that i'm not actually trolling when people just hate my arguments or positions or when i'm facetiously replying and they all bitch bitch bitch and say to ignore me because it's not serious that someone actually believes in free speech or not starting wars or holding treason trials or not believing utter nonsense or whatever goofy things i'm up to, it's just when i pull out any intentional mocking before anyone has actually said anything, that's a no-no benji, after i posted it i was like "i'm prolly gonna get got for this one" especially after the quote barrage started, can't let that slide really

all in all i consider it fair to even overly favorable moderating that i receive, i certainly don't do anything to stop switching between facetious to straightforward to openly joking to just posting information often within the same posts, and don't take it seriously so i can see why the paranointelligsta can't handle it or think a Tropic Thunder reference is accidentally outing an alt account and get themselves banned over their descent into madness

At the point conversation is going on this thread, I don't know why don't just kill them. If the argument is that the line is crossed so much they are beyond repair, why waste money keeping them locked? All you want to do is remove them from society, just murder the four and burn the corpses.

I don't get the throw away the keys rationale. I mean I'd rather send them to some kind of crazy experimental psychiatric facility where they get deprogrammed then re-programmed.

What's the point of keeping people in jail indefinitely, rather just execute them outright if you're not even going to attempt to try to rehabilitate them.


Or at least use these people to do something beneficial for humanity in someway, not continue to exist as a drain upon society.
