Achronos finally saw that his site sucks without us and is trying to get us back.

I thought anti-immigration was one of their major platforms.

Also, May 15 is like two weeks after Age Of Ultron. I hope they know what they're doing, otherwise they could really take a hit financially.
There is no good time to release a blockbuster this year unless you're Marvel or Star Wars.

I think you're massively underselling the extent of conversation and discussion among intelligent people, and overselling the power of a movie to influence the way people think.
I don't know how it goes in the UK but here in America, that couldn't be more untrue.
We have a pretty politicised education system here.

Most teachers are unionised, openly critical of the current Conservative government, my history teacher is pretty anti-UKIP and my politics teacher has a big problem with Israel and Republicans.

But, nobody really cares. It's not supposed to be politicised, but teachers are people too and everybody I know seems willing enough to look past the obvious left-wing bias among teachers here.
I've never had a teacher that talked about politics before and I think over here people don't see opposing viewpoints very often. I'm sure this movie will be extremely influential on students, so that's why I'm not into this idea.

If it's just blatant propaganda and serves no educational benefits, I don't see how anybody could agree with this.

*sigh*

No it doesn't.
Rapists deserve to be flogged but there are more heinous crimes in my eyes. I'm definitely not condoning rape as some people seemed to interpret my post -.-

Let me ask you something. Have you actually met any rape victims? I have.
I have but we didn't discuss the incident. Does that make me lose credibility?

Things worse than rape:

Murder
Torture
Slavery
Kidnapping
Abuse

Rape is definitely wrong but people can be over-dramatic about it.

But rape IS torture, can involve both kidnapping and slavery and it is most certainly a form of abuse...
I fail to see your point. Yeah, murder is worse than rape. But that doesn't make rape okay... None of the above things are okay.
I'm responding to people that think rape is the worst thing you can do. I disagree.

Comparing suffering is silly. Each is subjective to the victim. A random guy that has grown up in an abusive environment might get tortured and get over it with a little ease however a girl raised in an conservative environment and conditioned to think that her virginity is sacred  could get raped and will think it's the end of the world.
All of those things would be way worse to the little girl.

Sometimes I wonder why people don't take the issues with other minority groups seriously and then I read stuff like this and find my answer.

There should just be a general Souls or Bloodborne thread and not 10 different ones on the same shit.
No there shouldn't.

Tell me about Bane. Why does he wear the mask?

Personally I'd love to see an all Asian cast since it would stay true to the story and the setting. Not to mention I really dislike her acting style. Thoughts?
Then it would be a huge flop.

« on: March 26, 2015, 09:25:11 PM »
What I want you to take away from the video is that he very clearly is a strong contender for the White House.
This is all I wanted to know.

I'm not sure if you have me confused with another member but I've never said anything in favor or against Cruz because I don't know much about him. I'm just saying that the guy in the video managed to lose me within the first couple minutes. I'll keep watching though.

You guys should look on the bright side, at least no one is stupid enough to deny climate change in this thread.
You can't just diss our boy PSU like that...

"A comprehensive vision of what the constitution should stand for":

-"Lowering the barriers between church and state"
-"Allowing prohibitions on abortion"
-"No recognition of rights for gay people"
-"Deevolution of power from the federal government to the states"

What are you wanting us to take away from the video, because I only made it to the opening question and I already don't think he'd be fit to lead this country?

And in some Black Helicopter-type scenario (which is what you're probably thinking of), the US would most likely cut out mass media (which is incredibly easy to do), so the population would be deprived of information. And information is power as we all know.

You do realize how easy it is to blackout the internet in a single country, right?

There goes the entire information network.
It's not something I know much about, but is there no way around a government blackout?
