I have tagged you as trolololol

Malbgolge is an esoteric lang like brainfuck, but much much harder to use

No, len is a constant time operation, at least in most cases I believe.

Yes, by being a progression meme it implies that the final statement “there is a male loneliness epidemic” is something only arrived at by incels

It is using male loneliness as the punchline of the joke. If it is meant as “the male loneliness epidemic is the only reason I’m single” then I have no problem with that, but currently it reads as if the loneliness epidemic is an invention of incels

If this meme was focused on incel-dom then i would agree with you, but it literally states “there is a loneliness epidemic”, and trying to imply that people who are lonely are incels is outright wrong. Many men (and also women) are lonely, but not because they don’t “have the basics right”, nor do they blame women in any way. Societal loneliness is a real and growing problem that affects more than incels.

My dude, you are the one here basically claiming that the only reason men are lonely is them being bad hygiene women haters. It’s literally misogynistic.

Blaming a societal breakdown of connection and interaction on men is just as misogynistic as blaming it on women. Stop being a part of the problem.

Because it belittles male loneliness. Of course women are not the cause, but it is quite real and affects many men, including those who do not blame women at all.

If the meme ended with “why won’t women date me” or something, I think it would be fine.

Cardboard boxes? That will never catch on

Gabe Newell is not a video game developer

Yes famously all video game developers are billionaires

Of course they are made to cover costs and make money, but you can cover more costs for future games or ongoing development the game if more people are buying the game, even if it isn’t at full price

I would think it usually implies the opposite

Games on Steam are not usually recurring purchases, one person won’t buy the same product over and over like they need to for food. This means the market of people willing to pay the full price gets saturated over time.

Sales are a way to increase the market size by lowering the “barrier to entry” (price). Sometimes a price will be permanently lowered, however usually not because a temporary sale encourages people to buy now instead of later.

And here I am discussing, trying to not disregard ideas I am cynical of, and instead ask questions to gain understanding. Apparently that is discouraged here.

Thank you for the resource, next time lead with that and skip the insults.

It might be ignorant, but I certainly don’t get the impression at all that things are going well in Ukraine despite being exposed to this propaganda, nor do I see how it benefits NATO for its citizens to believe so. It seems to me that believing Russia is weak would make people value NATO less.

But thanks for stopping by to insult me for asking a question, really love that attitude.

If this is true, then who is generating the propaganda? Who does it benefit?

And what exactly are my opinions which are “vibe based”? The only opinions I have stated in this thread is that users are sharing blatant propaganda (one example of which you agreed with), and that I don’t see a reason why any non-bot would willingly spread propaganda.

The links you sent don’t have anything to do with what I’ve stated. It seems like you are trying to show me that Zelensky deserves to be hung, but this is irrelevant to my statement that claiming “he will be hung by his countrymen” is propaganda.

For example I might have sources as to why I think Putin should be hung, but if I went around saying that Putin will be hung by his countrymen it would be implying that he is hated by Russians, which is an outright lie and propaganda.

I’m not sure why you are misconstruing my message, I said explicitly that criticising Zelenksy is not propaganda. Once again, propaganda is when you blatantly ignore reality in an attempt to give Zelenksy (or anyone) a “bad rap”.

Implying that Zelenksy has little support from Ukrainians by claiming he will be hung by his countrymen is blatantly ignoring the statistical truth that a good majority of Ukrainians support him.

Stating that Zelenksy is the sole reason for Ukraine’s destruction is blatantly ignoring the historical truth that Russia invaded Ukraine.

Please explain to me how these are “vibe based”

I did not even reply to you, I replied to another comment which has been since deleted, and was referring to comments across this whole comment section. (Eg: “when his countrymen hang him”, or “this scumbag is responsible for destroying the country”)

Spamming russian bot

You can check my comment history, I am fairly sure that is the first time I have ever referred to a user as a Russian bot. Hardly spamming.

I disagree with your original comment mostly because of the phrasing, because I think it implies that the only reason for Ukraine to be fighting was for NATO membership (as opposed to defending their home from invaders) but your clarification about Ukraine being stuck between two evils I can agree with, or at least find reasonable.

Edit: added examples above
