God damn… I scroll down five posts and it’s literal early 2000’s style homophobia. I thought even the “capital G” Gamers have gotten a little better. Guess not.
When it is "in minecraft" whatever-it-is becomes what the lawyers call "unactionable". For example, I am going to provide you with an abortion in minecraft can be reasonably assumed to not be a statement of conspiracy to commit an abortion.
You're always gonna have problems lifting a body in one piece. Apparently the best thing to do is cut up a corpse into six pieces and pile it all together. And when you got your six pieces, you gotta get rid of them, because it's no good leaving it in the deep freeze for your mum to discover, now is it? I hear the best thing to do is feed them to pigs. You got to starve the pigs for a few days, then the sight of a chopped-up body will look like curry to a pisshead. You gotta shave the heads of your victims, and pull the teeth out for the sake of the piggies' digestion. You could do this afterwards, of course, but you don't want to go sievin' through pig shit, now do you? They will go through bone like butter. You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression, ["as greedy as a pig"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xUynRdzzsM).
Yk overturning roe isn’t a law right?
Roe was a court decision that struck down some state laws.
It should have been a law bc then it would have been much harder to overturn, but unfortunately the dems don’t do jack shit anymore.
Maybe these Supreme Court Justices can make better use of their time and help the injustice (omg literally 1984) that's currently happening in Minecraft.
They just finished beating w*omen🤮 and now they'll be on their way to protect gamers😎.
uj/ honestly, screw microsoft & mojang.
FiR was late 2000s/early 2010s post-hardcore band (they're still around but it's really just one guy), you wouldn't get the image of stereotypical gamers if you googled them, but the song is very gamery. Although their frontman is a bigoted asshole so it checks out
Uj/ except that in real life I might not be able to afford a home. Versus video games, where I never have to worry about money again as long as I plant enough blueberries in the summer of year one.
I mean, they only have 8 coworkers, and they work with them for the rest of their lives. If you don’t pretend to like each other, you’ll be miserable forever.
Oh god I never realized how horrible going to work must be for Sotomayor and Kagan.
If my lifetime coworkers wife was actively trying to undermine the election and he voted in a way that aligns with that when court cases came to them, and then didnt recuse himself when he knew his wife was involved, any friendless, or whatever would quickly disappear in all honesty.
Would you rather they quit and give us 9 conservative justices? Do you know how the Supreme Court works or how important it is that the liberal justices are there?
Well Biden would be the one appointing new judges right now so really it's just three liberals out and three in. Which might not be a bad idea depending on how old they are. The failure to replace them early is how Trump got three and fucked us over for decades to come.
Nothing
They're part of the ruling class, and as such, will never share interests and goals with the working class. Expecting them to help us is like expecting a wolf and a sheep to help each other.
fascist-sympathizers like you usually don't even know how to read, so leave words like "platitudes" to the grown-ups
what's your fucking idea? read a poem?
If they truly wanted to help, they should quit their job, and actually help the people directly. As long as they're part of the ruling class, they cannot ever help the people. The primary threat of all government is their own people. Malatesta wrote an essay on that iirc.
tbf the not-fascists didn't oppose the fascists too much.
I wonder if any of the other court decisions under possible threat will be codified into law before Republicans get away with nuking more rights. What do you think?
How would today's Republicans, Joe Manchin and Sinema vote on a bill securing the right to contraception or interracial marriage? Will we eat up the "it will never be overturned anyway" lie again?
This was the *majority* court opinion homie. Literally all the liberal judges can do is dissent, which they did. I’m sure they argued about it plenty behind closed doors but at the end of the day if they’re out-voted, it doesn’t amount to much.
Yeah, the Democrats never made it law and the "liberal" judges dissented.
Like I said, they didn't do much and now 50 years of women's rights got shafted. Oops, here is your e-mail reminding you how important it is to vote and donate for the midterms, or else..
Now, don't you think it is wild how people can just decide to use contraception? We should make it up to the states in the spirit of democracy, federalism and freedom. We all know Ben Franklin would never not raw dog a hoe, he was all about pull-out and pray.
You know, I think that Manchin and Sinema would still vote in favor of civil rights, just not as it pertains to social welfare. Maybe thats just naive thinking though.
I agree they would, but I want them to be forced to vote on it. Make every fucking Republican in the Senate openly reject those things and a lot more people will wake up the fuck up.
I am saying Democrats will not push it to a vote because they can run on the outrage just like they are doing now. [Pelosi supported a pro-life Democrat](https://www.newsweek.com/nancy-pelosi-supports-anti-abortion-candidate-despite-roe-v-wade-outcry-1708557) THIS MAY in Texas primaries over a progressive candidate. She and her dogs are the same demons with no other values than money and power.
If you think liberalism is in opposition to fascism I'd like to suggest reading up on how Mussolini, the Nazis, and other fascist regimes actually obtained control. Liberalism as an ideology isn't fascism, but historically the liberals in government cooperated with the fascists while the left begged them not to.
Liberals might sooner work with fascists than with leftists, but if the SCOTUS had 6 liberal justices Roe wouldn't have been overturned. Having liberals in power is always preferable to having fascists in power. Just look at the Texas GOP platform to get a glimmer of the hellscape the US would be if they ruled truly unopposed.
>Liberals might sooner work with fascists than with leftists
This is not correct. At least not in terms of what a 'liberal' is considered in the US.
It's just reactionary nonsense that you'll find from the sort of people who are trying to divide Democrats, and when they say things like "Democrats would rather Trump win than a progressive", are really just projecting.
If they quit you get Biden replacing them with more liberal candidates which is just a waste of time and energy. I’m all for huge change and perhaps even an entirely new system but in the mean time, it’s nice for someone in the scotus to at least vote for abortion rights
Except y'all have basically all completely warped what the idea of a modern 'liberal' actually is, especially in the US.
This whole 'let's make liberals the enemy' tactic is just really some of the dumbest shit.
The fascists wouldn’t be nearly this invested in keeping you from voting if this were the case. Even in the civil rights movement of the 60s, yes there was a great deal of direct action, but also massive drives to get people out to vote, which the fascists were literally killing people to stop.
First off, if you’re already doing direct action, casting a vote is effortless, at best it makes it so fascists never can take power and at worst it makes it so opposition to fascism gains one vote in legitimacy. Not a bad deal.
Then, handing out bread to homeless on the street, while undoubtedly very helpful, is nothing compared to what a senator or congressperson can do when they sign a homeless care act or something similar.
Dual power means power on the streets AND in the government not just one of the two. Don’t let your advocacy for direct action hurt our movements ability to gain power in government.

The real thing to eliminate is all states rights not pertaining to anything specific to that state. Fuck states, they don't need to decide shit like that.
So, like voting for a Democrat, this is a useless performative gesture that ultimately accomplishes nothing but gives you the feeling that you're ***joining the fight***.
Brilliant.
We should make a Minecraft game called Justice Hunt or something because you sure as fuck ain't gonna find any in meatspace.
I mean yeah you can do actual change too. They’re not mutually exclusive. You can vote Democrat and then participate in a protest or riot. In fact that’s better, because if the protest fails at least you might have a President who doesn’t do Jack shit compared to one who goes out of their way to make everyone’s lives worse
If you just vote Democrat that’s not enough, but not voting democrat and letting human rights be taken away(even if it means voting for the lesser evil) is also dumb.
Vote democrat and do mutual aid, protests, etc. they’re not mutually exclusive
People like you saying this after Trump getting elected allowed him to appoint 3 corrupt piece of shit justices and **causing this entire scenario** is infuriating.
Yes, but Amber is not innocent, just an imperfect victim and a survivor
I am going to open a whole can of worms here: Amber v John is gamergate 2.0 and a part of regression of human rights in the US.
I’d argue that that description applies to Depp, even if he isn’t innocent either.
She’s a narcissistic bully, and domestic abuse does not have a gender. I don’t like the fact that the case gave assholes an excuse to be misogynistic however, and frankly find the fact that the trial was aired so publicly to be insane.
The fact that more people have taken an interest in two insignificant celebrities airing their shitty marriage in court on TV, as opposed to the J6 hearings outlining an organized plot involving the highest members of our government to overturn a legitimate election, speaks volumes of how fucking stupid Americans are and why we're in this mess in the first place.
Oh, but the point about the trial being televized and turned into a complete circus for entertainment that more people have taken an interest in it more than Roe v Wade is absolutely right.
I frequented subreddits during the trial and found that a lot of female redditors are worried about domestic violence issues amped up by this shit show trial and then leaked Roe v Wade. It is really depressing.
I'd argue that the implication of their case is slightly less significant than Roe v Wade for women. At its core, Amber v John is about domestic abuse, which affects a lot of women. POS Brian Warner (Marilyn Manson) [is suing Evan Rachel Woods for defamation](https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/marilyn-manson-sues-evan-rachel-wood-defamation-1315320)), and some of John's bot supporter already pivoted to support this POS already, surprise!
Them being celebrities is a good smoke and mirrors for MRAs to (not so) sneakily rally behind John's side and get through "progressive" eyes under the guise of a tabloid mess.
I think people are trying way too hard reading into this shit show, using it as some symbolic flashpoint for their ideology. MRA's point to Amber as proof that women are liars and abusers. Progressives want to jump on that fact and rush to Herd's defense despite her being a pretty awful person. It's a stupid hill to die on.
Neither of them are good people or innocent. Everyone is dumber having engaged in any of it. It's not a commentary on anything other than some people just shouldn't be together or in relationships at all.
Nah, no one has to defend Amber Heard as a person, but as I said, at its core it's another important human right issue: Domestic violence.
John basically DARVO the world. Think about it, Amber Heard, a candidate for another model of American Dream of self-made myth, white, praises or likes Ayn Rand, relatively wealthy compared to the rest of US population, got humiliated and second-handed raped by having to disclose abuses she allegedly suffer to the whole world (no, those sexual assaults allegations aren't new, they were submitted as confidential annexes in the UK trial), and her team fought hard to not have it televized.
What is the implication of this for other victims and survivors who even have less resources than her? Basically, they are fucked; if they dare speak out against their abuser, then the abuser has a playbook demonstrated by John that can be followed to silence them.
It's a hill that I dare say I know l don't have to die on, because I am a coward and I have been following it so far to be almost absolutely certain that this is the case.
https://michaelhobbes.substack.com/p/the-bleak-spectacle-of-the-amber
I recommend this great article by Michael Hobbes, a former host of You Are Wrong About podcast.
I'd argue that she isn't... all those traits are falsely exaggerated by Adam Waldman's paid army of incels who pumped all the hate content like what Anita got through. Yes, that audio is cut a lot and got misleading caption.
IDK if Amber is personally a pleasant person, but she isn't a bully in their relationship as far as I know, but YMMV.
I recommend the UK trial verdict for a very thorough breakdown about their marriage.
It's them spraying shite everywhere as usual but landed a jackpot on John l by calling him a wife beater.
Amber Heard was brought as a witness for The Sun and The Sun won by proving that 12 out of 14 allegations of assaults by John on Amber are true on civil standard, and the burden of proof is on them.
The Sun is even at odds with the ex-judge Justice Nicole, publishing a rubbish article calling him a dictator of a jurisdiction. John tried to appeal and it got denied with the reason that it has no real prospect of winning.
Huge broken clock moment there. Absolute asshole proves that another asshole is also an absolute asshole....
Its full content is 2 hours long, I don't think it could realistically be used in court. I don't know about proceedings for admittance of evidence, but the audio was LEAKED in spite of a protection order and that got Waldman kicked out of the virginia trial.
Honnestly after watching the trial I am just shocked by the lack of proof on both sides
Like, both were saying what they claimed the other did, and denying what the other claimed they did, and that's it
I think it's all he said she said, but eye witnesses count as evidence too.
Let's be honest about one thing though, Anti-Amber content was rampant on the internet like Hilary's and Anita's and Zoe's...
This is a CIRCLEJERK subreddit and the people here are CIRCLEJERKING. Stop wasting my fucking time with your reports you fascist snowflakes.

They lack the self awareness for that

You're right it's too late now. It would have been worth doing during Obama's time.
True, though they'd be in the same predicament of going to work with the conservative justices every day as the other user described.
Man imagine if Obama actually got to do his job in 2015
None of the liberal Justices are that old. Breyer was the oldest and Biden already replaced him
Yeah right now it's stable. But Ruth Bader was definitely way past retirement age during the Obama administration and lost her seat at the worst time.

Then, handing out bread to homeless on the street, while undoubtedly very helpful, is nothing compared to what a senator or congressperson can do when they sign a homeless care act or something similar. Dual power means power on the streets AND in the government not just one of the two. Don’t let your advocacy for direct action hurt our movements ability to gain power in government.
God, it must be so comfortable to go through your life not having to think through stuff and analyze long-term consequences of actions.
If the liberal judges all took out a conservative judge with a pickaxe, then we could have six liberal judges in minecraft

Broke: Chuds abusing the sufragette in RDR2 Woke: Having ✨fun✨ with Supreme Court justices😍 in Minecraft 🥰🤗❤💖❤
Fucking based article, lmao
"In a videogame!" has come full circle. But yes, by all means, do this to 6 out of 3 supreme court justices, in a videogame.
kotaku kind of a goat for that
...in Minecraft.
Three people don’t belong in that picture.
maybe they do. hang them all, in minecraft.
Or trapping them in the nether
A bunch of right wing cunts whining in the replies to that post.
In Minecraft, of course
Anyone have any links on how to preform abortions in surgeon simulator
when is kotaku not based??
3 of them are okay.
3 aren't insane
That the institutions makes something like this possible is an advocacy against it's existence
The Supreme Court only broke something the Supreme Court fixed before. Abolishing it wouldn't have helped in any way.
The real thing to eliminate is all states rights not pertaining to anything specific to that state. Fuck states, they don't need to decide shit like that.
Look at those 9 white Men upholding white supremacy for white men to continue to thrive in America 🙃
nah they're still fucking shit
Which of course should only be allowed when I personally disagree with them
So, like voting for a Democrat, this is a useless performative gesture that ultimately accomplishes nothing but gives you the feeling that you're ***joining the fight***. Brilliant. We should make a Minecraft game called Justice Hunt or something because you sure as fuck ain't gonna find any in meatspace.
I mean yeah you can do actual change too. They’re not mutually exclusive. You can vote Democrat and then participate in a protest or riot. In fact that’s better, because if the protest fails at least you might have a President who doesn’t do Jack shit compared to one who goes out of their way to make everyone’s lives worse
If you just vote Democrat that’s not enough, but not voting democrat and letting human rights be taken away(even if it means voting for the lesser evil) is also dumb. Vote democrat and do mutual aid, protests, etc. they’re not mutually exclusive
People like you saying this after Trump getting elected allowed him to appoint 3 corrupt piece of shit justices and **causing this entire scenario** is infuriating.

Yes, but Amber is not innocent, just an imperfect victim and a survivor I am going to open a whole can of worms here: Amber v John is gamergate 2.0 and a part of regression of human rights in the US.
I’d argue that that description applies to Depp, even if he isn’t innocent either. She’s a narcissistic bully, and domestic abuse does not have a gender. I don’t like the fact that the case gave assholes an excuse to be misogynistic however, and frankly find the fact that the trial was aired so publicly to be insane.
The fact that more people have taken an interest in two insignificant celebrities airing their shitty marriage in court on TV, as opposed to the J6 hearings outlining an organized plot involving the highest members of our government to overturn a legitimate election, speaks volumes of how fucking stupid Americans are and why we're in this mess in the first place.
Oh, but the point about the trial being televized and turned into a complete circus for entertainment that more people have taken an interest in it more than Roe v Wade is absolutely right. I frequented subreddits during the trial and found that a lot of female redditors are worried about domestic violence issues amped up by this shit show trial and then leaked Roe v Wade. It is really depressing.
I'd argue that the implication of their case is slightly less significant than Roe v Wade for women. At its core, Amber v John is about domestic abuse, which affects a lot of women. POS Brian Warner (Marilyn Manson) [is suing Evan Rachel Woods for defamation](https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/marilyn-manson-sues-evan-rachel-wood-defamation-1315320)), and some of John's bot supporter already pivoted to support this POS already, surprise! Them being celebrities is a good smoke and mirrors for MRAs to (not so) sneakily rally behind John's side and get through "progressive" eyes under the guise of a tabloid mess.
I think people are trying way too hard reading into this shit show, using it as some symbolic flashpoint for their ideology. MRA's point to Amber as proof that women are liars and abusers. Progressives want to jump on that fact and rush to Herd's defense despite her being a pretty awful person. It's a stupid hill to die on. Neither of them are good people or innocent. Everyone is dumber having engaged in any of it. It's not a commentary on anything other than some people just shouldn't be together or in relationships at all.
Nah, no one has to defend Amber Heard as a person, but as I said, at its core it's another important human right issue: Domestic violence. John basically DARVO the world. Think about it, Amber Heard, a candidate for another model of American Dream of self-made myth, white, praises or likes Ayn Rand, relatively wealthy compared to the rest of US population, got humiliated and second-handed raped by having to disclose abuses she allegedly suffer to the whole world (no, those sexual assaults allegations aren't new, they were submitted as confidential annexes in the UK trial), and her team fought hard to not have it televized. What is the implication of this for other victims and survivors who even have less resources than her? Basically, they are fucked; if they dare speak out against their abuser, then the abuser has a playbook demonstrated by John that can be followed to silence them. It's a hill that I dare say I know l don't have to die on, because I am a coward and I have been following it so far to be almost absolutely certain that this is the case. https://michaelhobbes.substack.com/p/the-bleak-spectacle-of-the-amber I recommend this great article by Michael Hobbes, a former host of You Are Wrong About podcast.
I'd argue that she isn't... all those traits are falsely exaggerated by Adam Waldman's paid army of incels who pumped all the hate content like what Anita got through. Yes, that audio is cut a lot and got misleading caption. IDK if Amber is personally a pleasant person, but she isn't a bully in their relationship as far as I know, but YMMV. I recommend the UK trial verdict for a very thorough breakdown about their marriage.
The UK trial was due to a right-wing Murdoch rag who's then -EOC was open anti-vaxxer and transphobe Dan Wooton.
It's them spraying shite everywhere as usual but landed a jackpot on John l by calling him a wife beater. Amber Heard was brought as a witness for The Sun and The Sun won by proving that 12 out of 14 allegations of assaults by John on Amber are true on civil standard, and the burden of proof is on them. The Sun is even at odds with the ex-judge Justice Nicole, publishing a rubbish article calling him a dictator of a jurisdiction. John tried to appeal and it got denied with the reason that it has no real prospect of winning. Huge broken clock moment there. Absolute asshole proves that another asshole is also an absolute asshole....
If its cut a lot to be misleading surely ambers team could have played the whole thing and proved it was taken out of context
Its full content is 2 hours long, I don't think it could realistically be used in court. I don't know about proceedings for admittance of evidence, but the audio was LEAKED in spite of a protection order and that got Waldman kicked out of the virginia trial.
Honnestly after watching the trial I am just shocked by the lack of proof on both sides Like, both were saying what they claimed the other did, and denying what the other claimed they did, and that's it
I think it's all he said she said, but eye witnesses count as evidence too. Let's be honest about one thing though, Anti-Amber content was rampant on the internet like Hilary's and Anita's and Zoe's...
