  • “better detailed” doesn’t necessarily mean “better art” …

    Art being fidel to reality is it’s own subset of art movement, called realism. Many people appreciate it as “wow this is so close to real life/so much effort”, but then if you ask people what they think the greatest artworks are they might bring any artist. Van Gogh, Da Vinci, Dalí, Picasso, Pollock, etc.

    So no, just because something is closer to real life does not make it “objectively the best art” in the broader sense of art. Maybe you can measure that when pit against other realism pieces, which sre not as faithful to real life.

    I mean, people can simultaneously realise the gravity of this, AND poke fun at the coincidence thst the Pope died after meeting JD Vance.

    You aren’t contributing much either by making an entire comment criticising those people. Why not ignore and move on and make an useful comment?

    It’s also okay to not have something important or ground-breaking to say. I don’t think people saying JD killing him are ruining the internet.



  • Wrong! Not American! Also not a fucking moron!

    If I was an American I would have voted Kamala simply because TRUMP is Much. Much. Much. MUCH FUCKING WORSE FOR LITERALLY EVERYONE. NOT JUST GAZA.

    I don’t know, at the end of the day, when you vote for a president first and foremost should be your own interests before any foreign politics. Making sure your rights are intact so you can discuss foreign issues afterwards.

    It’s like airplane oxygen masks: Put on your own mask before helping others. The non-voters/independents have frsntically tried to help others first, failed miserably and fainted in the process, slowing everyone around down.

    But I am sure the children in Gaza will be grateful you let Trump win because he is such a sweetheart with children :P






  • I guess sending weapons permits a level of discussion with an otherwise insane lunatic. Trump won’t give a shit about the discussion.

    Now I ask you, how many ongoing genocides are enough? Because the people that didn’t vote are probably on the side of “Hey, Palestine isn’t enough! Ukraine should get some aswell! And former USSR countries in the future!”

    Thank you for voting Harris, you just need to understand the 15 million are idiots for not expressing one of the most essential opinions whatsoever


  • I don’t think you understand. This election wasn’t about expressing your moral superiority by not voting for Genocider A or Double Genocider B

    This election was about preventing Double Genocider B from winning. You could only do that by voting Genocide A and sucking up the morally fucked choice. You failed, miserably. Had you voted for A, in 4 years you would have had the chance to happily vote for any third fourth or fifth party your heart desired. Good luck with that now when Trump brcomes God King.

    Good fucking job on wasting your vote away and letting both Ukraine and Palestine get fucked. And the climate.

    You are a fucking imbecile


  • I am not apologizing genocide, I am simply criticising people that voted for Genocide + More by not going to vote at all.

    The morally right choice was to reduce harm as much as possible, and that was only viable if voting with Kamala. By otherwise not voting or going independent (In a place like U.S. where an independent vote is basically a waste), you’re just letting the fascism push more.

    But again, these people can at least sleep easier at night knowing they didn’t vote for anyone doing genocide. They simply facilitated genocide + everything bad to seep through and win.

    Trying to only blame the dems for the civic duty failure of 15 million people is insane in my opinion. In other countries you just vote with the candidate you like the most, even if they won’t see eye to eye with you on some issues, it’s not some “oh I will only vote if these candidates win me over!”. You either vote because you agree with someone ideologically, or you vote because there’s Hitler on the ballot and Jesus Christ you do not want Hitler to win, even if the candidate you voted for will only give Israel more weapons. Otherwise you let Hitler win and now there are two genocides occuring instead of just one.
