The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

You knock off a hostile leader, all you’ve done is given everyone under that guy an instant promotion. Which is another way of saying, you never get rid of the leaders on the other side because there’s always some new schmuck ready to step up and take the last guy’s place.

Yep. But you also get rid of that one person's expertise, knowledge, private list of contacts, etc. Anything s/he was keeping close to the vest dies with them. Leaving the next schmuck in a tighter spot with less knowledge and resources. They're also in the lurch trying to play catch up. It may not get rid of the organization, but it sure throws a huge monkey wrench into the works. Also kinda a bad day for the former leader. On a personal level.

What I learned in my Lit 101 class Semiotics and Psychoanalysis is that it doesn't matter what the author intended, those blue curtains have pages and pages and pages of meaning. It's how I wrote every essay after that class: I'd take one sentence (usually in the first chapter) and tear it apart semiotically. So much fun!

Hogwarts Legacy Streamer Brought to Tears After Twitch Chat Harassment (unlinked so as to not promote false, transphobic narratives)

Edit: Not worth it, suffice it say do your research, this article is bunk.

If you're going to promote H*rry P*tter content can you please put it in some spoiler tags because it's genuinely and legitimately upsetting to people like me.

Yep. And whoever’s “in charge” is mysteriously always accident prone. Good luck. Hope you’re a lighter sleeper than the last 12 people in power.

"Harassment" my naughty word, literally the people trying to explain why them streaming the game is a bad idea and the streamer himself goes aggro and makes his own fiancee run off crying and then cries "bullies" himself.

If you're going to promote H*rry P*tter content the least you can do is not spread misinformation and maybe shove it in some spoiler tags so I at least naughty-wordpost about pineapple pizza without having to be reminded how little people actually care that our governments are trying to kill us.

Maybe a dedicated thread so this one doesn’t get shut down?

Is there a way to mute or block threads a certain posters starts but still see their comments in other threads?

Edit: Just take it somewhere else

Well that's a rude way to sub-post Snarf
