  1. so in all honestly @Anastasis, one of the primary reasons you get so much shit and get called out by everyone is because you have a pretty clear and constant pattern. i'd legitimately and objectively like to try to draw it out for you... you regularly call posters out - rightly or wrongly - for getting outraged and ranting about issue X when they don't or didn't get equally outraged by issue Y, which in your mind should have been just if not more offending and enraging, and thus you deem them 'clowns' and basically worthy of your contempt. most of the examples i've noticed of you doing this have to do with foreign policy, military action, etc. you tend to throw that back at posters a lot - 'where were you when Y was happening, huh??' but...you basically do the same. i think you have gotten selective in the threads you participate in for this reason, and it's a pretty easy observation to see that while you may still feel strongly about about some issues you have gotten very...subdued is a good word, in your protestations or even vaguely mild criticisms of some of the same things that you have previously purported to have a principled stance on. due process (or the complete lack thereof rn) is an example that comes to mind here. or Israel/Gaza...Trump and Bibi have turned it to 11 and you're basically like 'oh well, Trump's genocide now'. or the absolutely stupid level of incompetence leading the DoD. honestly i believe that's why you've garnered such vitriol and 'troll' like status from others...it comes across as not just hypocritical at this point in time, but also like you were never that principled to begin with and that most everything that is happening right now you are pretty a-okay with because you actually support pretty much all of it...but you don't want to actually be lumped in with idiot maga brigade because, well, they are idiots and you are not. you just agree that America needs to be torn down. so anyways man, i've clearly spent too much time thinking about this lol. but sometimes @bolverk and his honest attempts to communicate with opposing viewpoints inspires me. and TL/DR: every accusation is a confession.
  2. might be the first time i've agreed with him lol
  3. ...and add Halsey at RR in June because my niece wants to come in and go to that one... and just found out im going to Metallica* at Mile High a week later! 😮 *my first Metallica show after all these years...i know they're old lol but i'm pretty excited for this one! 🤘

  8. this. THIS more than anything else. THIS is why we are where we are.
  9. oh...so were the blurred faces in the end pics guys that were still in, likely special forces?
  10. it was also filmed real time, like the whole thing covered just 90 minutes interesting you use those words...my first remark after was 'jesus, so all that for what? did they even get to do their mission, what even happened to the marines??'' the body language of the Iraqi combatants stepping into the street at the end conveyed the same feeling. this was really good. not for the queezy. not a single one was shot, the casualties were all from the ied. that is remarkable. every one of those guys brains was scrambled, that was almost as hard to watch as the physical injuries. yikes. i couldn't believe that first Bradley just pulled off and left them lying in the street. huh. i don't know if this will make sense, but the style actually reminded me of Anora. no exposition, no narrative, we're just dropped right into a point in time and go! i guess Civil War was like that, too. i mean i realize objectively all movies are like that... but the feel is different, stuff just happens. i like it, whatever it's called.
