"waaaaa, bad man not say nice things! me have last word and blok mwahaha" violently masturbates
said the man who couldn't refute literally any of my points (and clearly didn't understand most of them in the first place)
Me or Luigi? I guess it doesn't matter because technically both have issues.
I'm not going to prison for life, for starters.
reread your stuff. if you can't understand how it proves your own stupidity, then you really are hopelessly lost.
Luigi was not justified in the murder. If someone with a loved one endangered by UHCs policies enacted by Brian Thompson had killed him, I'd be much more conflicted. But as it stands, Luigi is just some spoiled poser who decided to try and disguise his mental illness and violent urges as internet radicalization. He's a poser, using the proletariat's suffering as a cloak behind which he can hide his own twisted fantasies.
honestly it is the only way they can throw off the bourgeoisie. people who want to deprive the proletariat of guns are class traitors or posers from the bourgeoisie.
Yawn. Your personal experience is not reflective of broader trends. If you work in healthcare, you really should be smart enough to know this. So I will lecture you, because you clearly need it. Besides, you haven't refuted any of my points, you just resorted to logical fallacies like appeals to authority and anecdotal evidence. Proof that you don't have anything useful to say anymore. Smh.
Best Budget Telephoto Lens for Low-light photography
I’m trying to pick a DSLR-compatible Canon telephoto lens for wildlife photography in low-light conditions (also, I like doing urban candid photography/street photography from distances, so that too). Naturally, this means high ISO and low f-stop. For some reason, all I can find are like f-4; is that normal? Also, what’s with all the “telephoto” lenses that max out at 200mm? Shouldn’t something like 400mm be better? I suppose I don’t want something too bulky, so 400mm is probably pushing it but idk… if you have experience in this, let me know what you think. I can only seem to find a handful of options, and most are for mirrorless cameras which sucks because I don’t want too many camera bodies so getting ANOTHER one for this purpose would really clutter my shelves as I don’t have any mirrorless Canon’s.
Anyways, budget is tight, nothing north of $1000, let me know what you think!
Edit: Posted in wildlife photo community, but it was dead (no posts since like 2 months ago) so figured I'd move it here.

Readings on the Crusades et. al. through a Realist lens?
Ok so I watched this video and it actually did a really good job at explicating the context of the crusades in ways that a lot of school history readings didn’t for me. I've been notified that the channel is apparently a MAGA pipeline, and I don't necessarily endorse all views held in that channel, but I had to admit: it was refreshing seeing the Crusades explained through a rational, realist lens rather than just chalking it up to "evil bad man kill nice foreign people". And it got me wondering: does anybody here know any good books or book series on ancient European history - the Crusades, the Inquisitions, etc. - that don’t use objectivity as a facade for bashing Western culture? Like, books that use realism and rationality to explain the choices made and provide context into them? I'm looking for stuff as comprehensive as possible. I’m thinking something similar to Shelby Foote’s Civil War trilogy but with European history. Fairly detailed, objective, etc. Thanks in advance!
Population Rates in the West
People blame the crap dating scene in the West on, like, delusional people or dating apps but I think the reality is its a lot simpler and yet also much harder to fix:
People aren't mixing enough because they don't know how (guys and girls aren't going to the right places to find one another, and if they are it isn't often enough). There's a lack of assurances. Basically, girls don't have an assurance some guy won't try to get in her pants if she gets too close, and men don't have an assurance the girl won't be a total bint.
All the other stuff (having families being expensive, social media warping people's minds, etc.) is just an appendage to these central reasons.
And the only way to fix it is to make sweeping societal changes aimed at reconstructing former norms of things like modesty, abstinence, chivalry, etc. Obviously, these changes are downstream of policy and general demand, and you can only really act on the policy side of things but that's just not feasible because it would mean things like regulating dating apps or clubs or sexual behavior and that's just not feasible in the West.
So the only solution is to sit around, waiting until everyone gets fed up and rediscovers why we had the norms we did in the past. And then they can reject a lot of the modern slop and return to tradition in a genuine sense, not in this parody sense like we see with those idiot trad wives.
