Netflix released 300 titles this year? Quantity over quality.

I’ve seen this pattern before. Too many times. I stuck with AvE when he was only making “i’m a dumb hick who doesn’t understand trans people” jokes and he would eventually just out right support the Trucker’s “Protest” and teach his daughter racial slurs. That odd friend of a friend who likes Russia a little too much and is confidant that they’ll win, but totally isn’t routing for the.

What hotdiggedydemon is doing is making videos about wedge issues. Things that are somewhat mild or somewhat split in the left leaning crowds. Not so much in the right crowds. His old pony vids aren’t political, but they are cynical and I side eyed him at the time, but quickly forgot about it. It took about ten years before he would reenter my radar with his Eat The Rich video for the phase that youtube was pushing content popular with right wingers at me. That video has one hundred percent appeal to right wingers with it’s generalization to that crowd. There’s a lot of people on the left who don’t trust the left wing pundits, but only the right ringers are making videos about the. Right now, there are much bigger issues then some strawman of a left wing pundits. What that video signals to me is someone slowly testing the waters with how political he thinks he can get away with. At best, he’s a useless centrist making noise about how he’s angry things are changing. At worse, he’s alt right and he’s following a pattern I’ve seen too many times before.

The next video I see is him complaining about Apu being removed from Simpsons, which is another one of those issues that has split options on the left, but the right is pretty united on. Which audience do you think I think he’s catering to?

Kricfalusi is also a groomer, so whatever.

Also, I never called diggty a fascist or a Nazi. I called him alt right because he’s making videos catering to the alt right. If it quacks like a duck, it’s probably a duck.

Yes, I was there 15 years ago. You should have seen it 25 years ago.

Ren and Stimpy’s creator didn’t exactly age well either. Honestly, he was only really funny when he was pushing against boundaries. Once he had free reign, it was just gross out stuff.

I disagree with your interpretation of Eat the Rich. If that was supposed to be Hasan specifically, he could have made it more obvious. It’s still an overly simplistic depiction of an idea.

I was there when those pony videos were made. They always seemed more meanspirited than I cared for, but I didn’t think too much of it at the time. Definitely Ren and Stimpy coded.

His Eat The Rich video is a tired strawmen of leftists. Unless that’s a specific person, which it does a piss poor job of convoying, it’s a broad generalization of everyone on the left calling for political change.

His “eat the rich” video was enough. Honestly, I never liked his old pony.mov videos either. He always seemed like an ironic mlp fan.

As much as I think Apu is a fine character, hotdiggedydemon went alt-right culture wars a long time ago.

It sort of also assumed that just because relatives are fucking that they’ll even have a kid.

Rich people bribe legislators to make what they do no longer illegal. They lie constantly, but have their heads so far up their asses, they believe their own lies.

Are you old enough to remember “Freedom Fries”? I know people still stuck in that era.

Bungie wasn’t a Mac exclusive company. They were a Mac first company. Oni, the game they made right before Halo, was released to Windows and PS2 after it was released for Mac. Halo could have had just a big of an impact without being owned by Microsoft.

If Bungie stayed independent, Halo might have been a one and done game and they would have moved on to other IPs though.

ACAB is ACAB the world around.

The terrifying thing is, body cams probably did change how cops interact with people. They were that bad before. There’s also been a few times when a cop their forgets to turn off their body cam or arrives late and got in some trouble.

If you actually owned the car and the software on the car, then you could set the feed to be stored offsite somewhere. Even if the cops knew it was being recorded, they wouldn’t be able to get it deleted. Even if they deleted the local copy, they wouldn’t be able to know how many backups there are.

A camera that faces both the driver and front windows by default, but only stores it where the owner wants it stored would be nice. Making it a default would change how cops interact with people.

Not if the equipment gets unloaded in the black market.

They would be deeply confused by our seeming hatred for France, then be deeply confused why America is fucking around in other countries.

Thomas Paine might be a little happy about a few things though. Hard to tell.

Why?

Just saying something stupid online isn’t sarcasm.

Sony still seems especially bad about this. They fought for decades to have the dominant physical media format, from Betamax, to Minidiscs, to Memory sticks. They would eventually win with Blurays by selling the PS3 at a huge loss and now they want to abandon physical media?
