The most pathetic system? You can criticize crypto without resorting to petty insults, which just makes your position appear weaker.

I’m aware

From your second link: This video describes the structure and functions that give mitochondria their nickname: the powerhouses of the cell.

*Powerhouses, mitochondria is plural.

Putting ideology (“voting legitimizes the illegitimate authority”) over pragmatism is goofy IMO. Like, whether you view the state as legitimate or not, in the here-and-now it exists and has power, giving up your influence because you don’t like it is counterproductive.

Also this post reeks of Sovereign Citizen nonsense, “I do not consent to being ruled” okay well you are, might as well have a say in the rules.

and here’s the preceding exchange that actually describes the pods:

On closer inspection, Kurt saw a faint light leaking from these cubes… and staring closer, he noticed they were not at all cubes—their edges distorted and radiated extra dimensions.

He staggered back, hands reflectively grasping for his temples. Disorientation washed over him as he tasted the faint green light, inhaled the dusty odors of meaning from the symbols on the floor, and heard the bell-like tinkling of the organic electronics of the pods.

He sank to one knee and the tangled sensory input faded.

“Stand back,” Kurt warned the others. Over the COM he said, “Will, escort Dr. Halsey up here.”

Another wave of disorientation hit Kurt and his vision swam. When he again could see. Dr. Halsey knelt next to him.

“Move him away from the machines,” she told Will.

Will dragged him back to the room’s entrance, and Kurt’s vision immediately cleared and the dizziness vanished.

“What was that?” he asked Dr. Halsey.

“Unshielded Slipspace field,” she said. Her face was a mask of concentration, staring at the cubic machine housing. Frowning, she crossed to the pods. “Linda,” she said, “your assistance please.”

Linda moved up to Dr. Halsey, her sniper rifle aimed at the floor.

“Use your weapon’s range finder; point at the interior of the pod.”

Linda nodded, raised her rifle, and aimed at the Spartan inside the pod. After a moment, she lowered the weapon, checked her Oracle scope’s settings, and then repeated the procedure. She shook her head.

“You are reading an infinite range?” Dr. Halsey said.

“Yes,” Linda replied, uncharacteristic annoyance in her tone. “There must be something wrong with it.”

“No,” Dr. Halsey replied. “I’m afraid it is in perfect working order.”

She turned to Kurt. “I cannot revive your Spartans or the other three, Lieutenant Commander. They are not in cryogenic suspension.”

Kurt shook off the last traces of confusion. “Explain,” he said.

“They are encased in a Slipspace field. The process to stabilize such a field in normal space is well beyond any technology we or the Covenant possess. Essentially these Spartans are here, but not, extruded into an alternate set of spatial coordinates and excluded from time.”

tbf this was an intentional moment about how timey-wimey and extra dimensionally slipspace is, and Halsey was immediately called out for talking out of both sides of her mouth.

But it’s more funny to crop that.

No, I get it, I think it’s wrong.

Their narrative is that she was driving her car at them, her being unarmed is either irrelevant (because they don’t claim she was attacking with a weapon) or incorrect (if the vehicle is a weapon.)

So again, just repeating their narrative of “an unarmed woman was trying to kill an agent” without major transformation is just repeating their narrative. ICE claims she was attempting to kill, and this meme portrays her as someone about to kill. No satire or parody, it’s not emasculating because it’s literally just reinforcing their claims. They claim she was a danger and a threat, this meme portrays her as a danger and a threat and the ICE nazi in imminent danger.

Instead of just flipping it and having ICE being the one hunting down a defenseless person trying to run away, which would make sense and not thoughtlessly reinforce the ICE narrative.

dae introverted??

And what way is that? Because it seems to me like just repeating, not satirizing or parodying.

It’s making fun of them by just… repeating their narrative?

Yes, and the meme is reinforcing that narrative.

ICE isn’t the one killing unarmed women?

Darth Vader was the one killing in that scene.

yeah but it has Good Opinion™ though…

what an extremely lazy comic, “weekends good, unions good” and reusing the same panel 4 times. Couldn’t even contrive a scenario to share your opinion with a setup and punchline. And if you really want to get nitpicky, it’s not even correct because blue says “thank god it’s the weekend,” not “thank god for weekends.”

The insult isn’t being gay, the insult is being a hypocrite.

Do you actually know if he is gay, and therefore a hypocrite? Or are you just calling him gay because it would be funny?

Either way, the insult is still being gay. They wouldn’t call his wife a beard if it wasn’t a bad thing. Maybe you use homophobia even against a target you think is valid. I mean, if he is such a bad guy, then surely his actions are enough to use against him and not make up random grade school nonsense? Even if he was a gay hypocrite, that’s irrelevant to why he’s bad.

All of that is on top of the fact that by calling every homophobe gay, you are blaming homophobia on gay people.

I believe you

haha the joke is that he is gay, which is a bad thing because otherwise it wouldn’t be an insult. i am very smart

In c/greentext, it doesn’t matter if the post is a greentext? “This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon”

This doesn’t even tell a story, it’s just a random 4chan thread.

Not a greentext
