anyone else notice that the west took a turn for the worse once the concept of signaling one’s own social virtue became derogatory, almost as if cynically deriding all displays of charity and good will is indicative of a deeply cynical and nihilistic society capable of collaborating in genocide

We have got to disabuse ourselves of thinking there is some magical mix of messaging that is going to stop white folks from picking whiteness every day, every time and twice on Sundays.

Dear Team Cherry,
Either leave the Bilewater bench where it is, make the runback the gauntlet and eliminate groal's gauntlet or move the bench to outside the arena and keep the boss gauntlet.
Both is mean and actively discouraging.

The haters are right Gunn is inconsistent but he's got the Troma background in him and that's why he keeps winning which is why Peacekeeper lapped The Boys now.

Congratulations Ubisoft!
You've empowered the very people you seek to avoid to keep doing the shit that scared you in the first place.
