90%+ rubbing alcohol and rock salt actually does a really good job, it just takes more elbow grease. Still won't be as clean as literally fucking dissolving it, but that's how I'd do it if I couldn't use acetone.

Not being a piece of shit tends to have a positive impact on the longevity of your brain, it seems. Yes, I'm calling Biden a piece of shit too.

I've heard you out.

I'll take all of that without Kiwi.

It's got the spirit

Devil May Cry comes to mind, as well. If I'm not mistaken that game was entirely developed with Western audiences as the target demographic.

Maybe, maybe this is actually stochastic terrorism being carried out by MAGA themselves.

Think about it, their plan is to declare martial law - right? Conservatives already hate EVs, they think that Trump is a 'good' billionaire while billionaires like Gates are 'bad' billionaires - I don't think it would take much to make Musk out to be a 'bad' billionaire.

Idk if this is as clear as 'good guys vs bad guys' - these are freedom fighters, but it's never been clearer that a lot of people are divided on what 'free' actually means. You shouldn't assume that the people doing this are actually on your side.

We very clearly haven't already lost, otherwise the world would have ended. You and I wouldn't be having this discussion, we'd be cobbling together what bits of food we could to survive.

Stop this mindset, it's destructive and foolish - human beings have the capability of overcoming this. If people with this mindset were asked to dive into the cooling tanks at the Chernobyl incident - we, as a species, would actually be fucked.

Motherfucker hated me

😂😂 Extremely stubborn and prone to hate, sounds about right.

There was one dude who was an antisemitic rightwinger and seemed to start adopting softer stances like "You can't really blame Jews for being bankers historically, its just kind of where they ended up being pushed into by other religious groups. It doesn't make sense to hate them for that." or something to that effect. And he even started mixing some left & right leaning econ together.

It's definitely stuff like this that interests me. I think eventually - when the dust finally settles - people are going to have to start talking again. Not like we are now, communicating with the intent of making things better. I have hope that if someone like that can be convinced to have even a little empathy for the people they've been told to hate, then there's hope for the rest of them (and us all). I'm sorry that I insulted you, I should not have implied you were in an echo chamber - nor that you were the type of person to respond without reading.

Interesting, how did everyone else's perspectives change (or at least what you can remember)? I'm really curious, the more you share about it the less skeptical and more interested I become.

It was a joke, but that's on me for not putting a giant disclaimer for everyone to see.

Edit : also what are you trying to say in your comment? Cuz I know it's English, but idk what you're on about.

Yes, I'm glad you're beginning to see reason!
