It's because people in 2005 still cared about things like "plot" and "characters" instead of hype moments and aura.
I actively refuse to believe Star Wars fans watched this in 2005 and thought it was straight pungent slop dogshit

It's true that saying this while having a ✝️ in your bio is pretty funny, but people making fun of them should also understand that a lot of modern mainline Christianity is (from an atheist perspective) much more reasonable than astrology.
Astrology is bad not because it is "sky eugenics" but because it is an incorrect belief system, and thus leads one to incorrect conclusions about the world. Holding beliefs proven to be incorrect is bad in and of itself.

*wokely* only the evropean mind does not believe in superstitions
this is a very eurocentric take… which is, in a way, exoteric nazism

The main issue with brutalism is that architecture shouldn't lead people to suicide during the winter months.
The Barbican Estate is brutalism at its most beautiful, where monumental concrete meets nature.

It's even worse in FotS. I'm taking back my Paradox comparison. No corpo other than CA would be this shameless.
They also seem to have used AI to upgrade the unit card illustrations. The last time I saw a corpo being this shameless when it came to releasing absolute slop was Pdx with Leviathan back in 2021.

This whole drama is interesting primarily because it's a perfect example of fandom brainrot. IRL, WLW is much more prevalent, but in fandom spaces the proportions are skewed toward MLM (largely because of women, funnily enough), causing a completely warped perception of reality.
Lesbians are mad about lesbian erasure at the expense of gay men… in ARCANE??? A show with zero canonical mlm representation?

CA revealed the campaign map for the Shogun 2 remake and to absolutely no-one's surprise it's abysmal dogshit. Even the Reddit isn't bying it. I guess they weren't satisfied with fucking-up their new releases and just had to touch the last truly good thing they made.

the fact that this colleen hoover booktok-bolstered film swept the box office the same weekend that warner bros’ final film, which is about the weakness of art and how truly blind we are to the destruction around us, feels deeply poetic and sad.
β€˜VERITY’ debuts with $32.5M domestically and $62.5M at the worldwide box office. It cost $40M to produce.

It's very clear that Marx did not see religion as any kind of valid medicine considering that the "opium of the people" quote is followed by this: "The abolition of religion as the illusory happiness of the people is the demand for their real happiness"

The constant attempts to soften the marxist approach to religion are one of the most shameless examples of revisionism on the modern left, with the arguments being almost entirely based on hoping that nobody actually did their reading.

If you think the PRC would do anything about it outside of moralfagging at the UN about "grave violations of International law" I have a bridge to sell you. Russia is such a non-entity it's barely worth a mention.
Why is nobody talking about this? If this actually happens and China/Russia (who are active Cuban allies) come in to support Cuba this could literally be the start of world war. We may not even have until 2028 to stop Trump it’s insane

the reason this lesbian bar story went so viral is that basically every left wing person in America has personally experienced some version of this story in their life over the course of the last decade and is really goddam sick of it
Per a note to Boston Globe staff today, the lesbian bar story generated 1,000 subscriptions to the paper yesterday. The Globe’s managing editor said it was β€œby far our best performing story of the year,” and appears to be β€œon pace to shatter all sorts of Globe records.”

A lot of things have been said about this already, so the only thing I'll add is that I have been a member of two separate student orgs which suffered splits originating from (or being greatly exacerbated by) the exact kind of behaviour described in the article.

If you care about classical music or β€œtraditional western culture.” the country by far best for that was the Soviet Union and its not even close. Also when will these fascists losers post actual decent classical performances 😭😭😭
Goosebumps. For all its faults, Western Christian culture is still worth defending.

It's a common issue in most fandom spaces unfortunately. "X is the rightful king! It's Y actually! No, you're both wrong, it's Z!" Everything has devolved into stan culture.
I think a lot of newer fans are much more interested in asserting the divine right of Targaryens to rule Westeros
