Agreed. I think Amos can rightly be called an antihero, same with Miller.

But Holden is the archetype ‘good guy’ and everyone else is also unambiguously ‘good’ who occasionally do morally gray things for pragmatic reasons.

Such a great show (haven’t read the books (yet) sorry!)

Also, shut the fuck up about how cars are debatably more comfortable.

If it’s pouring rain outside, would you rather sit in a car or on a bike? If there’s a blizzard outside, would you rather sit in a car or on a bike?

Like shut the fuck up with your dumbass bad faith arguments. You just want to be right. I fucking hate cars, but they’re literally designed for a comfortable, air-conditioned sit.

God I hate bitches who just argue for the sake of arguing.

Your response proves you’re not from america and have no idea what you’re talking about 🤣 (americans don’t know what kilometers are)

You’re genuinely brain-damaged if you think bikes are more comfortable than cars. No citation needed—it’s called having an ass. Like bikers literally get injuries for sitting on those microscopic seats for too long.

And we were talking about bikes, and you started talking about how amtrak is more convenient. Fucking huh??? Again, brain damaged.

Said like a true european or someone who lives in a huge city with biking infrastructure.

“MoMeNtArIlY dIsPeNsInG wItH tHeIr FaCtIoNaL sQuAbBlEs” dude shut the FUCK up thesaurus.com ass. There is no one more annoying than genuinely stupid people trying to make themselves sound intellectual while making the most braindead comment you’ve heard all week. Crawl on back to reddit, you lobotomized clown.

What’s happening to lemmy? CA passes a bill to say “no discriminating in schools against judaism or islam” and yalls are running around like chicken little?

I hate the abrahamic religions, but jesus fuck, stop pretending like this law is some assault on free speech. It literally just clarifies existing law.

I came to lemmy to avoid reactionary tumblrinas and brainrot redditors. Wtf.

The fact that the worst of it is concentrated in the US south is very telling

Moron. The whole point about ‘fuck cars’ is about choice. The entire problem is the fact that it shouldn’t take 3 hrs to get to work using public transport. There should be options. We shouldn’t have to depend on cars to get around—where are the trains and buses and bike lanes and even walking paths?

Like you are making the case for ‘fuck cars’ lmao, you’re the dipshit 🤣

Can we put down all billionaires already? Worthless leeches on society contributing absolutely nothing.

This is why I sincerely do not believe in ‘cancel culture.’ Who’s actually been cancelled? Cuz every time I’ve ever seen a rich/powerful/famous man get credibly accused of assaulting women (we’ve seen the Cassie Ventura video), he walks. Weinstein is the literal only exception I know of.

The only acceptable answer.

Dude shut up this comment was so unnecessary

That’s so sexy of Europe and Japan

Yeah I stopped reading once it said that weird pic was AI generated. If you want me to read your science article, don’t throw shitty AI images at me because now I have to think ‘what else did you use AI for?’

Surprise medical bills; random shootings; a fascist dictator leading the country; the complete and entire erosion of the rule of law

This might induce me to donate to Mamdani’s campaign. I live in fucking Illinois btw.

Very well-put. AJ helps me get the ‘Eastern’ perspective of world events, which can get sanitized by the West. Taking the Gaza War as an example, BBC/any US media outlet is almost always going to take a pro-Israel bias—even inadvertently. I think it’s important to hear from groups who don’t have incentives to portray israel in a good light. Again, tho, that’s one example, and you should always consult multiple news sources.
