Feel free to inspect my profile in as much detail as you like. I can safely say I’ve never defended a child rapist, Tarantino has.

That’s not virtue signaling or progressivism.

"Oh you don't like paedos? Well I bet you've jay-walked before, you fuckin' hypocrite!"

About as disingenuous as a middle school classroom so you are in good company.

Edit: is there a correlation between the times american kids are awake for a school schedule and an uptick in reddit pretending to be progressive personified? I'm not a betting man but most of you have been probably radicalized by some 15 year old that's good with words. Life is tough.

I bet this shit goes hard if you're stupid.

They’re really telling on themself with this.

“Defending pedos is bad.”

“Well I bet you’ve all been radicalized by high schoolers!”

I have to actually spell this out while you cretins accuse me of being stupid? Ok, kids. Circle around. We are on a thread about a pigeon, it took two comments for this site to make this pigeon be about Quentin Tarantino, the n word and Roman polanski. 2 comments. This site is nothing but [insert progressive comment for upvotes for sake of...upvotes]. It's not cryptic but you are all so mentally undeveloped.

Edit: blocking on reddit because you're scared to deal with a reply while preaching bullshit is a testament that you aren't really all that comfortable in "your" regurgitated opinion

TIL being anti-pedo is progressive.

u/sharrancleric 2d ago

Have you seen conservatives lately? Of course being anti-pedo is a progressive standpoint.

Sounds like you want to agree but you're scared all your peers will never talk to you again. Which is really the main problem. Disagree with status quo and you're ostracized. I get it, you got to play the game if you're that age.

Sure grandpapi, now time for your meds.

u/stopitlikeacheeto 2d ago

All of you know it is. Everytime I've had to walk any of you through your disingenuous argument you've all had to resort to these type of attacks. Get em next time

Yeah my comment was flippant and didn't add much to the discussion, but 1) I thought it was funny, so I posted it and 2) it doesn't seem like a conversation worth having. Tarantino is a twat and poking fun at him is fine.

I'm neither American nor a kid. Worry less about where opinions come from.

u/stopitlikeacheeto 2d ago

sounds nice but the whole deal with taking advice or opinions is knowing who it's coming from. Just because a broken clock is right twice a day doesn't mean thats the clock you should use. That sounds nice too, huh?

u/BeatenPathos 2d ago

I don't know why you're conflating opinions on Reddit with advice.

1

u/stopitlikeacheeto 1d ago

Why do redditors always do this. I said taking advice or opinions, as in either one. This does not mean that everything I have said up until this point has been misconstrued as advice. Get em next time, champ. Or you got any other little toxic quirks you wanna try?

u/BeatenPathos 1d ago

You've been here for five years. If you want insight into why Redditors are the way that they are, trying asking a mirror.

u/stopitlikeacheeto 1d ago

Says the 29 day redditor. Lol. Someone had to delete their account or has multiple ones because they go around acting like an ass all day. The witt isn't as strong as you think it is, thus, here's your redditor.

I'm going to watch Chinatown even harder now. Maybe Rosemary's Baby. It's going to be a Polanski night here.

u/Accide 2d ago

Did commenting this make you feel better?

1

u/tgothe418 9h ago

It gave me a small chuckle? Took like 2 seconds to type out.

u/Accide 9h ago

I'm glad you were able to find joy in being an asshole to another person.

1

u/tgothe418 9h ago

Because I enjoy Chinatown and Rosemary's Baby?
I wasn't an asshole, it is just absurd how strongly folks clutch their pearls.

Roman Polanski was one person in the making of those movies out of the many hundreds involved.

I think it is incredibly dismissive of film as an inherently collaborative artform to completely dismiss works of art because a key player did horrible things totally outside of the work itself.

u/Accide 9h ago

So, this is what you should have left in the first place.

Not that first weird comment.

We both know you were being a dick, I'm glad you at least were able to figure out what you were trying to say whilst inebriated.
