Wait so that CounterThink guy thinks that the best way to avoid cancer is to go out in the sun for long periods of time without sunscreen.

I guess it's ironic but it's really more :smith: for the fact that people will totally believe him and do this and then not blame him when they get skin cancer from it.

EDIT: Cryin' Abe Lincoln is the best.

Counterthink isn't ironic

No I'm saying it is ironic that people would go out in the sun to not get cancer because going out in the sun in fact causes cancer, except that people getting cancer isn't so much funny so it's really more sad.

It also depends on how you define 'green' because in their own way all of those things are eco-unfriendly.

frankenstein's monster isn't evil like darth vader, he's just tragic

That the monster exists is tragic but he himself is pretty evil. I mean if he'd just killed Frankenstein that'd be justified by the heinous crime of his very creation but instead he destroys everything Frankenstein has ever loved out of spite.

raises the question of nature or nurture. frankenstein says nature but the monster argues that he is not the sum of his parts but that of his experiences, a result of frankensteins abandonment. he only becomes that way after he is driven off from that family too

Yeah his malice towards the world is pretty understandable and Frankenstein should have expected when creating an abomination that he'd suffer some consequences for it.

absolutely, but there comes a point where you can't make excuses for the creature's actions anymore, because paradoxically if you do, then you end up dehumanising him and reducing him to a mechanistic consequence of Frankenstein's actions rather than an independent, thinking being with free will.

Oh yeah I mean once he starts killing innocent people connected to Frankenstein things change substantially.

And the little droid at Vader's feet is what makes that image funny imo, it's just perfect somehow.

""From the analysis of the bullet distance on one of the bodies," Dr. Ince said, "the gun was fired between 2 and 14 centimeters' distance from the victim's head.""

"One casualty, a 19-year-old dual national Turkish-American citizen named Furkan Dogan, was found to have bullet wounds in his head and multiple bullets in his body, Ince said."





Nothing is consistent with "just defending myself from violent thugs!" like "multiple bodies with execution-style gunshot wounds to the head."

The only thing that surprises me is that the IDF didn't throw the bodies into the sea so the other sharks would dispose of the evidence.

Yes because he's trying to get sent back to Aruba where he won't be in a prison where the family of the woman he murdered can pay 50 bucks to have him gutted.
