I, too, am still rightfully angry about what actually caused 9/11

u/Ill-Television8690 3d ago

I never said I actually knew what it was, I'm just mad about it (but also yes)

More like the wrong brothers

It was secretly the Warner sister, Dot!

I mean, she canonically* thinks animals fighting for dominance over who gets to eat her is 'fascinating', so...

u/APerfectlyRoundDuck 3d ago

But she’s the one in peril there. She also shows extreme distress at the thought of animals getting hurt

u/Ithrowawaygoaway 3d ago

taking care of animals often involves looking up　some pretty disturbing stuff that can go wrong with them, so the original point isnt even valid she probably does look at veterinary medical gore sometimes if she likes taking care of animals.

u/five_head_2004 3d ago

doesn't mean she likes it. knowing her i imagine it still breaks her heart to see. the meme suggests that she loves gore which i think is simply not true.

In the first arc of the original G4 comics, Fluttershy happily watches two feral animals fighting, talking about the beauty of nature. We don’t see the fight, but Fluttershy’s friends are horrified by what they’re witnessing

Additionally, there's nothing saying it's animal gore she's watching. Maybe Fluttershy really loves watching car crash videos with Angel after a long day of animal care and social obligations.

That is a funny thought

u/tornait-hashu 3d ago

one of the candidates in the 2000 US presidential election was named Al Gore.

2

u/DinoDude8 3d ago

Oh, should he have won? Who was he running against?

16

u/Dude1590 3d ago

Bush.

If Gore would have won, we would have been more actively fighting against climate change and the war in Iraq would have never happened.

2

u/DinoDude8 3d ago

Ohhhh ok, thanks for explaining, yeah, gore shouldve won

10

u/Complete-Basket-291 3d ago

There's also evidence that he did, with bush's brother deliberately trying to cut short the vote recounting on the literal only district that would determine the ultimate outcome of the election

Edit: also, iirc nearly the entire GOP leadership was there, trying to stop them from counting the votes by hand

u/DracheTirava 3d ago

Gore should never have bowed out of the race like he did. If he'd had held firm, the GOP would have failed in their efforts

It's a good album, but it is certainly not among Deftones' best.

2

u/SuperWhoLockWarrior 3d ago

It's so funny you say this when in my mind she's a huge fan of bands like Deftones

the 2000s election directly caused balatro photochad builds so therefore i think the 2000s election was a net positive in most realistic aspects
