Exactly. So I am curious why OP considers it remarkable that “neither left nor right” is not what it seems.

As for me, I might consider someone from a different country with different politics, like Japan perhaps, to be neither. Or someone who lives under a rock and doesn’t pay attention to the news.

Please describe someone who could be considered neither left nor right. Is it possible you are viewing the absence of left-wing qualities as being right-wing?

augh it’s annoying

this is too meta

1, sometimes 2.

Does anyone else have the problem where sometimes a bit of TP sticks to your labia? especially the 1-ply

They made the product they want, they’re free to do that.

But they aren’t free – Disney has total executive control. This is nothing new though; they used to use this power to censor queerness in shows before (e.g. Gravity Falls). They may still perhaps, and may do so again. Disney in general reigns in everything to make it a sterile corporate product and the artists involved have to swim upstream to make something they want.

We should all boycott Disney and take its capitalist grip off our culture. Then we can have vastly more diverse media, certainly with more queerness.

Out of curiosity, did you like Andor? Because it had all that stuff too but it was well written instead. Just think about how many women are lead roles on Andor for a second.

those are the people 1984 is talking about, or rather to, I believe.

Edit: nvm, 1984 is among them perhaps.

yeah, I think there’s been a terrible miscommunication somewhere. It might help if you clarify – do you yourself believe that there is a sizeable contingent of people who want to force games to include all walks of life?

misrepresenting the anti-woke crowd? I think they literally believe that stuff, forced diversity etc.

Edit: nvm, I was wrong.

there’s no “but” – this is exactly the point the author is making.

The article is NOT satire – it’s provocative. The author argues that world hunger benefits the rich. Capiche?

I hope the UN restores the article.

Interview with author: https://fee.org/articles/un-deletes-article-titled-the-benefits-of-world-hunger-was-it-real-or-satire/

that’s not satire. He unironically, disapprovingly, argues that this is the real state of the world.

can you explain?

That’s the anti-woke propaganda the text you’re quoting is complaining about. If you listen to anyone right wing long enough this is what they’ll bring up eventually. it’s “fake news” basically – very dangerous fake news.

Perhaps you misunderstood the poster?

Edit: nope, I did.
