User Banned (1 Week): Inflammatory AccusationWe gotta b real here mates, no self respecting lib gives a shit about brown people across the globe, no matter how many die due to US influence(regardless of the administration)This thread is two pages and will soon be at the bottom of the heap along with every other genocide level disaster.Its just the kind of comfortable mindset these types have, like Ellen for example. Its how she can get away with saying "you can be friends with people you disagree" to a war criminal and still have people lining up to defend it ad nauseum
It's becoming quite clear that Era mods have an anti-leftist bias. This post isn't inflammatory in any way and it's a pretty common leftist thought. Liberals will absolutely excuse the actions Democrats make in regards to foreign policy. We have so many people here who consider Obama to be a good president despite him killing a lot of brown people overseas. That shit just gets ignored or excused. we had a thread that basically said that Obama's only scandal was the tan suit thing, but how his drone strikes killed an American teenager was largely ignored.This ban should be reversed.
This ban is bullshitgod fucking damn this is why I dont do this shit around herehaving to convince "allies" why human life is a thing to care aboutthis is bad for my healthHelio and other lefties, thanks for trying
I messaged mods earlier for the obama thread but I encourage others to message them regarding this ban. Perhaps they will allow us a thread for a public discussion on these bans because its becoming increasingly clear that if you say something too damming of the democratic party you catch a ban. And if thats the way it is thats the way it is, but it'd be nice to be open about it for others to know.
QuoteThe extremist left posters on this site are disingenous hypocrites who care more about having a boogeyman to rail against than actually confronting the reality of politics. Complaing about her decade old actions offer zero benefit to people suffering at this very moment. And if they have their way folks will continue to die at the expense of a ridiculous moral crusade.now watch this unmitigated bullshit go unpunished

Silly Sandstar, don't you know only symbolic actions that result in nothing changing are all that actually matter?
So you are mad that Pelosi was smart enough to see through the bullshit on the Iraq war buildup, voted no on the war because of it, and didn't want to impeach a lame duck President. Got it.
Once again we're playing the "Blame the Democrat who had nothing to do with it for the bad shit the GOP did" game. Second time today.
I am very curious how many people were actually old enough to remember 2001-2007 and how this all went down with the toxicity of the national politics at the time.
No, you're talking about Impeachment, a political process for removing a President. People didn't turn on Bush until the war started going bad. The war had public approval at the outset. People didn't turn on the war itself until much later. As Pelosi said, people believed the Republicans! Impeachment is a political process and that "pol" part of it is and was very much the problem.I'm not going to "fuck off" about people who didn't experience the existential nightmare that was US politics 2002-2005 trying to play backseat driver and pretend that it was possible to derail Bush's slowmoving horror show when it was blatantly obvious how bad an idea it was and yet you had 60% approval nonsense. You want to know why I think the median voter is a fucking moron? That very instructive life experience.The second thread in which a prominent Dem gets blamed for bad shit the GOP did. First Obama is suddenly responsible for the actions of a GOP state administration, now Pelosi is some magical telepath who could have somehow singelandedly stopped Bush's revenge fantasy from happening when so many others at the time weren't able to.
Welcome one and all to the thread of fun pain fun. It is that time of year once again. A major movie release is upon us, and there perhaps is none bigger than the ending of the Star Wars Skywalker Saga. There's been a lot of hot talkers about how this movie is doomed to fail and dead on arrival, so it is time to put your money avatar on the line and make your bet.The RulesIn the spirit of keeping things fun for everyone involved, I'd ask everyone to keep in mind the following:NO BET SHAMING - This is a bet for fun and for bragging rights. Please don't shame others for their bets or shame them into honoring their bets. It is up to each person whether or not they want to prove themselves worthy of honor.NO BET LIST - In the interest of keeping things low key, there won't be an official bet list of people for or against this bet. Instead, it'll simply be the honor system, and when the bet loses, if you lost, you should change your avatar to whatever the losing bet is.FOR FUN - These bets are for fun. This isn't serious business. It is supposed to be a fun way for people to have investment in the Rise of Skywalker box office results and follow along if they want. If you like to talk about the Box Office, you might also like the Box Office community.THIS ISN'T AN |OT| - If you want to argue or whatever about the movie, there's a great OT here for that. Please try and keep this strictly on box office returns and bets and keep the fighting elsewhere!SIDE BETS ARE OK - Feel free to make side bets with others about RoS in this thread if you so desire.The Bet ItselfBets are locked December 19th. No more bets can be made or unmade at that time.The bet ($700M USD domestic) is based on United States dollars and will be using the domestic (United States) box office total.The losing side's avatar will be decided by the community in a poll in this thread. The avatar itself must adhere to ResetEra's rules. The avatar should be worn for a month.Those who bet for the wrong side and willing put on the avatar of shame will be memorialized in a thread list for good honor and sportsmanship. The winners get the satisfaction of winning.The bet itself has multiple milestones which must be completed in order for the bet to continue on without ending early. These milestones are based on The Force Awakens (highest domestic box office movie of all time) with help and guidance from kswiston and PhoncipleBone to ensure the bet doesn't last forever.Milestone 1: If Rise of Skywalker has not grossed more than $650M domestic by February 1st, 2020, the bet will end at that time. (TFA only made another 40M after this.)Milestone 2: If Rise of Skywalker has not grossed $690M or more domestic by March 1st, 2020, the bet will end at that time. (TFA only made another 10M after this date).Milestone 3: : If Rise of Skywalker has not grossed $698M or more, the bet will end when the theater count for Rise of Skywalker is below 500 theaters. (TFA only made another 2M from this point).If at any point in time Rise of Skywalker crosses $700M before the bet is terminated early, the bet will immediately end.The Historical BreakdownFor context, the best grossing Star Wars movie domestically is the Force Awakens which came in at $936,662,225. The second best grossing Star Wars movie domestically is the Last Jedi which came in at $620,181,382.The Original Trilogy4 - $460,998,0075 - $290,271,9606 - $309,205,079The Prequels1 - $474,544,6772 - $310,676,7403 - $380,270,577The Sequels7 - $936,662,2258- $620,181,382

OFFICIAL STAFF COMMUNICATIONThe reason for Inuhanyou's ban was because suggesting that literally no liberal and/or Democrat cares about minorities is an inflammatory generalization. The ban was 1 week. A poster with a reciprocal generalization was sent to review. We've received numerous complaints about the toxic and hostile environment in political threads, and so this has been an area of focus recently.If you have further questions please contact a mod captain for concerns about moderation. Please do not derail the thread.

There is nothing more exciting in cinema than a new Skywalker Saga Star Wars movie. Nothing compares to the anticipation to a new entry in the Skywalker Saga. Still hard accepting it's all over.I am going to try to enjoy this last week, not sure I will ever have this level of hype for a movie again.
S2 User Banned (Duration Pending): Ableism; Prior Infraction for Ableist Language.lmao at all the 6'3 people being like: "being tall is a curse". Y'all haven't experienced shit. I'm 6'9 and outside of a youth spent dominating at basketball it hasn't really paid off. I literally can't sit in 90% of cars without having my knees like besides the steering wheel looking like I'm driving a clown car. Can't sit straight in trains, airplanes, trams, or any other vehicle. I look ridiculous holding 90% of regular people sized shit, can't play stratocasters in public because the shits look like ukekeleles so I'm always using some huge hollowbody thing that looks like it's normal size for me. And I haven't even talked about buying shoes or clothes but I need to buy 90% of my shit at a specialist store at a significant markup so I'm not constantly running around in something that looks like an exposed belly button tanktop or like my basement has flooded.You haven't experienced living in a world where everything was designed for the midgets that surround you. Fucking chairs with toothpick legs and seating heights below 50 cm, hospital scanners that literally can't fit your legs, being at or close to the weight limit for most things despite not being overweight, struggling with skateboarding because of a high center of gravity and tiny ass skateboards, every single cooking surface being at or below crotch height so it's easier to fuck my food than cook it. Ergonomic chairs that literally don't have the adjustment range required for you to be able to sit ergonomically, Having to bend down to pass through doors etc... Trust me when I say y'all don't know this pain.
Well because MS has the warchest like Nintendo where they can throw money at the system to be the best. Sony can’t do that. They are a few years away from bankruptcy and had to sell buildings just to keep the lights on. Anyone thinking PS5 is over 10.24TF is setting themselves up for disappointment IMO.
Okay, which mod is a manlet?
I'm a 5'0" woman.Actually 4'11". Sucks.Being a woman makes it socially easier I guess. Everyone thinks I'm a teenager until I speak, and in general my height makes me more inviting and amicable to folks. But regardless it's fairly common for me to be talked down to, made fun of, and even have people push me around or intimidate me just because they can get away with it. Height discrimination has no historical baggage to it, so it's not like I can say anything to people to just make them leave me the fuck alone. If anything being annoyed about it is liable to get me clowned on more. People think you have a Napoleon Complex and say shit like "Man, you need to love yourself more" and all that nonsense.The worst is general statements of surprise. "Wow, you're so short!" Nah, really?! I couldn't tell for the nearly 30 years I've been living! Thank you for that astute observation!Now I like the way I look physically regardless. And it actually makes capoeira easier! But there have been many a day where I wouldn't mind having a few more inches simply so as not to garner negative attention from assholes. Because again, it's the one trait to possess that you can't make people back off about it when they start going in on you.

He can do what he wants but it's weird for someone to treat the fucking Ghostbusters canon, of all things, as sacrosanct
