Of course they think that way: accepting the idea that a group of people can individually make immoral choices would mean grappling with the possibility that one day they will be found to have made evil choices themselves. It's… pre-emptive scapegoating. Imagine what the post-war period would have looked like if we refused to accept that they'd all been led astray by Hitler and that they weren't true believers in Nazi ideology. They could be post-war Germans one day. They know this in their liserd brains, and it terrifies them (as it should).
It's honestly probably a blessing that the masses are so self-deluded and instinctively insulate themselves from accountability for their immorality. The world would be a much more brutal place without it.
Kind of ironic though. The shepherds are the scapegoats. Ha.

I'm reserving judgment somewhat because Crowder is kind of a retard and the documents purported to be the manifesto are very… on-the-nose. The manifesto is even more retardedly 'woke' than I was expecting, and when something goes so far out of its way to confirm priors… its a bit sus innit. Would not be surprised Crowder got duped, or is having a 5-head moment and intentionally releasing a fake document to bait out the real one from the feds because he feels he has nothing to lose after the divorce.
I give it like… 50% chance of being real, 40% chance Crowder got tricked, 10% 10-head 5d chess play.
yet the authorities dont deny its real
theyve released everyone elses manifestos but not this one...
because it doesnt follow their narrative

It's been years since the original ban lol. As a number of folks have pointed out, you're not actually dumb and you can post some good stuff, and I never actually disagreed with that. The original issue related to what, per the site rules, constituted intentional disruption. I'm going to stop banning the alts, and won't ban the original account if you want to post on it again. The same rules as before are still in place, but at this point your alts haven't been breaking rules so I don't see any point in continuing to trash them given the original ban is long since expired (I'm also too lazy to re-implement the auto-ban script).
I fully expect the next reply in this thread to be some homoerotic rape joke lol. But that's ok, being a weird aggressive gay angry dude was never the issue. So uh, welcome back, I hope we can find a way to make this work.

honestly I still didn't really like the ending, but they executed it pretty well. yeah, I agree with most of what you wrote in the spoiler, especially how the ending seemed like a desperate way for the writer to wash his hands of showing genocide to be the most reasonable course of action.
something I've been finding interesting is the people saying it was never justified; they almost all repeat the same logic that it's not the Marleyans and Paradis peoples who developed a hatred for each other on an ethnic level, it was the bad government and the bad elites that manipulated them, like people don't develop their own worldviews based on being enslaved or slaughtered wholesale.
they genuinely cannot seem to accept that people are able to come to 'bad' conclusions by themselves; they have to be forced into it by wrongthinkers and MAGA hat wearers

generally the masculine character is to create and destroy, recklessly and violently trying to conquer new territories, new lands, new ideas. high risk rapid change, for better or worse. social heirarchy is established through violence and confrontation, leading to a sort of fascist meritocracy.
the feminine character is to seek comfort, to maintain, to stabilise what's already owned. social heirarchy is established through henpecking and consensus-seeking.
both characters are needed for a functioning society, to what extent is arguable. fully matriarchal societies like in sub-saharan Africa live somewhat comfortably within their current means but never really expand, leading to stagnation. heavily patriarchal societies like Rome or much of Europe pre-industrial revolution tend to become increasingly militaristic and either burn themselves out or end up getting destroyed.
it's chimps vs. bonobos

It’s an engagement party for one of her friends, which I didn’t know was a thing. I guess it’s like pregaming for a wedding? Or a combined stag/hen party? Idk, I’m figuring it out as we go
