[QUOTE=murple;45684562]i dislike outlast and the last of us outlast is basically a combination of everything i hate about modern horror games eg: not being able to fight back jumpscares galore [B]first person[/B][/QUOTE] Yeah I hate it when horror games aren't RTS's.
[QUOTE=thelurker1234;45684896]The idea isn't that women are second class citizens. It's that there are some awful people out there, and that it is indeed possible to take precautions to avoid becoming a victim of those awful people. No matter how many times men are told women aren't objects, rapists will still be out there. It's not a perfect defense to not wear extremely revealing clothing and to go to the club with friends, but it certainly can help you avoid being a target. Much like parking your car in broad daylight can help you not get car-jacked.[/QUOTE] The Steubenville case and others like it, along with the perception that rapists are only thugs in dark alleys, have proven that rapists aren't seen as "awful people" in America. Instead of telling people to wear rainboots and hope, fix the dam to stop the flood.
[QUOTE=Gwoodman;45688807]From his twitter, everyone knows it's dumb shit, people just think why not laugh, who gives a fuck enough not to, it doesn't matter in the end, they're just youtube videos.[/QUOTE] That's not what I mean though, I don't force myself to find it unfunny due to some "standard" I've set for myself, it's simply just not my style of humour
Gay Pride Parades are stupid. You shouldn't be proud of your gender, sexuality, or nationality. Israel shouldn't exist. Feminism is a good thing.

I dunno what the fuck you're talking about, I'm simply saying my opinion on why people watch it and laugh, I didn't criticize his opinion neither did I justify anything, a mere explanation.
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;45688964]Gay Pride Parades are stupid. You shouldn't be proud of your gender, sexuality, or nationality. Israel shouldn't exist. Feminism is a good thing.[/QUOTE] Feminism WOULD be a good thing if not for those who take it too far also I disagree with the pride thing, but over sexualized pride parades are dumb(but luckily kinda rare now) Frankly I know fuck all about Israel so I won't bother giving an uneducated opinion on that
[QUOTE=UnidentifiedFlyingTard;45688895]Yeah I hate it when horror games aren't RTS's.[/QUOTE] what is silent hill
[QUOTE=ImpSnob;45689687]Feminism WOULD be a good thing if not for those who take it too far[/QUOTE] so how much equality between men and women should there be
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;45688964]Gay Pride Parades are stupid. You shouldn't be proud of your gender, sexuality, or nationality.[/QUOTE] The point of gay pride parades isn't just having pride in your sexuality just because your gay. Its to have pride in yourself for being able to be open about your sexuality in the face of people who honestly wouldn't mind hurting you pretty badly if they knew they could get away with it. Pride has always been about being happy with who you are in a world where many people are against you just for being gay.
[QUOTE=Emperorconor;45690033]so how much equality between men and women should there be[/QUOTE] an equal amount
[QUOTE=ImpSnob;45690337]an equal amount[/QUOTE] well thats all feminism is pretty much
[QUOTE=Emperorconor;45690385]well thats all feminism is pretty much[/QUOTE] I'd imagine that ImpSnob is talking about the "feminists" who take it a bit far and strive from equality to "all males are rapists who should be castrated at birth and if you're white, male, and identify as the sex you were born as you are below scum." Personally, I prefer the term egalitarianism, as it does't just support equality between genders. It supports the belief that everyone is born equal, and has a far lesser minority of insane people and has a name that doesn't carry connotations that one may be preferred more than the other.
ye i mean the crazy ones that take it too far(as I said) I prefer that term too
I try not to let the extremists in the feminist movement not spoil the entire thing for me. They're bad people and absolutely deserve to be called out for their shitty behavior and ideas, but they're not a significant amount of feminists that I feel that they just ruin the concept of feminism entirely.

For the most part, the bad apples have spoiled the bunch in many cases, and made feminism seem like a horrid thing for insane people, even if that isn't the case. If you say you support egalitarianism, though, people will ask what that means, and most people don't get angry about equality for everyone. Plus, it has a pretty cool logo that totally doesn't remind of anything Nazi Germany came up with.

People wallow in their own self pity way too much. Talking about depression on the internet often is a bad thing as it puts you in touch with other people who simply reinforce your views on the world and how shitty it is rather than people who are legitimately trying to help you. The idea that these groups on Facebook/tumblr are actually helping depressed people is bullshit.
[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;45690763]yeah but you also said "it doesn't matter in the end, they're just youtube videos" and i'm saying that people shouldn't think that, it works just like any other form of media and you can criticize them if you want[/QUOTE] True, I should've used different wording like "Humor is subjective" or something, sorry.
Feminism needs a name change to prevent all the bad rap it has from people automatically assuming it only serves women due to the name.
[QUOTE=Gwoodman;45690783]True, I should've used different wording like "Humor is subjective" or something, sorry.[/QUOTE] of course humor is subjective, filthy frank for example is subjectively shit
my unpopular opinion is arguing about a youtuber on a forum for this long is stupid
[B]I'm not trying to start a shit fest or anything[/B], but I've never heard of Robin Williams so I really don't care much about his death and I can't go an hour without hearing his name now.
bullshit you're from Canada not Mars

Shadow the Hedgehog isn't really "edgy" and isn't a bad character at all.
Yeah I'm not upset, if you didn't know him you didn't know him, but I'm surprised you could go so long not knowing about him.
[QUOTE=Anyx;45691382]How large is the boulder you live under?[/QUOTE] Somehow I just never heard of him, I'm not big on knowing actors or other famous people.

[QUOTE=Yin;45691432]Did you ever watch Aladdin? He's the Genie.[/QUOTE] I saw it when I was 4 but I forgot the details of most childhood films I watched.
