It’s good old-fashioned xenophobia and is by no means unique to Americans or English-speakers even in the modern era. Anyone who has spent enough time in certain parts of France, Italy, or Belgium has probably encountered it at some point.
It’s everywhere but it is probably most prevalent in countries with a strong nationalist core and, in my opinion, ironically occurs most often in countries that have really fucked around with having an empire in the last century or so.
I was just thinking the OP article’s author missed an opportunity to mention that for this quality of product delivery, Musky believes he is worthy of a $44.9B payday.
Interesting because they creep me the FUCK out.
For an institution belonging to a religion supposedly focused on protecting children, Gateway made an awful lot of references to this monster’s sins, but precisely zero reference to his horrific crimes.
How odd.
Still and all, it is kind of impressive that he was able to secure the gods2 dot com domain name.
Let historians unpack their intentions, I say. And deal with their actions now, while they’re action-y and actively harming everyone and everything.

Mmmm except whatever shibboleths you may utter against “right-wing religious idiots”, comments like yours help those idiots and others like them by giving them a sort of ‘cognitive plausible deniability’ to get up to whatever evil shit they’ve been getting up to and worse.
Like it’s so obviously minimizing real evil - the evil UNDERNEATH shit like this ‘innocent little contest’, genius - under a shield of “d’aww shucks those pesky white nationalists are up to their hijinx again, those silly knuckleheads”.
So in that context, you talking about ‘disgusting right-wing idiots’ comes off as a real fellowkids moment for you.
I genuinely can’t tell if the downvotes are because people think you’re serious, or because people think you’re joking, or because people can’t tell if you’re serious or joking.
Man, I am a cinema buff and I just really don’t think I care if the smoke is there at all, much less just right. Obviously botched attempts at realism are another matter entirely but this just seems like an area ripe for creativity and artistic reinterpretation.
Point is, we cede ground to the theater of the mind all the time, I don’t know why realistic gunfire can’t be treated similarly, and I think the lack of verisimilitude itself could be approached many different ways and that’s even kind of exciting.
Give him his due, the man can sniff out a chump to be exploited.
The difference between ‘shalt’ and ‘shart’ may be as little as a few strokes of a sharpie…just saying.
Will no one stand up to the business-killing menace that is Marques Brownlee?
Oh for sure this needs to be a Gizz album or a song at least
Which, honestly, sounds like the name of a prog metal album so he isn’t straying far
I sensed the joke from a few instances over.
You can only piss on our faces and tell us it is raining for so long.
I didn’t even need to know he is a bigot to know he sucks, because he has sucked for a long, long, looooooong time.
Good enough!
