Looked up the article. They're mad that Dolly Parton, who is a very outspoken Christian, is specifically the kind who embraces the "God loves everyone and that means we should love everyone, too" ethos of Christianity. In other words, the author of the article is pissed that Dolly doesn't gaybash. What a fucking piece of shit you have to be to sit down and be like "you know what's wrong with this person? They aren't cruel enough."

which is risky if you care how it’s received.
You don't have to explain to me that posting is "serious business." I'm not new to webzones.
Fun fact about A Boy and His Dog: it's one of the primary influences (actually probably THE primary influence) of the Fallout games and their setting. In that sense, much of it is a criticism of Cold War American culture. All of the horrible stuff done to women in that movie is not an endorsement of it, but more of a direct criticism of the underlying misogyny in American culture. Also, it's based on a Harlan Ellison novella. Or collection of them, rather.
Also, it's a movie and these people are actors with no meaningful genetic relationship between them.
Irrelevant. The title says "The best computer from 2014," implying that that's what this build is. It is not. It's not even close. 2004 would get you a lot closer. Also 100 bucks in 2014 goes a lot farther than it does today because of inflation, and I'm assuming the person in the image is referring to $100 in 2024.
I had a gaming PC in 2014. It was definitely better than that.
You don't have to censor the word "Fuck." This isn't, like, a Christian minecraft server.
Article is a bit click-baity. Many of the survivors who saw the film were okay with its depiction and understood why the film presented the atomic bombings the way that it did. The film is ultimately about J. Robert Oppenheimer, and showing the physical outcome of the bombings would have itself been a potentially crass and shocking inclusion in a relatively subdued character study of a complex and tortured individual. Everyone knows that the physical outcome of the bombings on Hiroshima are shocking and terrible and left a lasting scar on the nation, coming to define the national identity of the Japanese, and especially Hiroshima natives that survived the blast, throughout the 20th century and into the 21st. But it's sort of like The Wind Rises. Oppenheimer was a physicist, and a very talented one. That his work contributed to the horrors of war is part of the tragedy of the individual and their story, just like it was for Jiro Horikoshi, the designer of the Zero.
Huh. Kinda looks like the front page of twitter. I hate it. I mean, I don't go to reddit anymore unless I'm forced to Google something and even then I gotta turn off my VPN first, but still. Yuck.
The party of states' rights and "keeping the government out of your private life" really like telling cities what they can and can't do in order to reduce the intrusion of the government into their private lives. I mean, let's be honest. This is basically being targeted because this is going to significantly reduce the number of non-violent offenders (almost all of whom are gonna be people of color, because damn if the cops don't love pulling over black people to try and find weed in their car) ingested into the prison industrial complex and the GOP has a fuckload of skin in that game.
Passive aggressiveness, nice!
That's not passive aggressiveness; it's condescension. Passive aggressiveness would be like hiding a spouse's favorite condiments after an argument or intentionally being late to a meeting with someone you don't like. It's being indirectly mean or hurtful. I'm very direct, by comparison.
I won’t be reading his works, mostly because I prefer authors that use proper English grammar.
A truly fascinating hill to die on. I'm gonna bet you're a BIG Brandon Sanderson and J. K. Rowling fan. Maybe a little Stephen King if you want to be adventurous.
Not sure what your point is, but I have a hard time imagining love and acceptance not going hand in hand.
