For someone who claims that they donated half their money from their food budget

Hopefully you got enough money to not starve this week

Unless...
Usually when I'm donating I try to buy less and I dig into my economies (which is a few thousand bucks to help me find a shelter in case I end up without ressources). Don't worry, I try not to push myself in difficulty when I'm donating.

But even if I were, this would be worth it, compared to my situation, the situation of those I donate for is 1000x worse.

Trust me, eating less in better than all the frustration, the sadness, the nightmares, the anger, the tears that I experienced this past few years in front of the horrible things happening all over the world.
 
This thread has reached the point where people show screenshots of their donations just to spite their opponent and win arguments. I changed my mind. This thread is no longer needed and must be nuked. Not a single constructive argument or conversation here, only extremists and narcissists.

Only Daniel did, or am I wrong? And they still donated for a good cause so all in all it's not so bad.

When I'm talking about the toxicity of this forum, this reaction of Daniel is what I'm talking about. This forum is so lost in negativity, that anyone with a different opinion being overly positive will be seen as an attacker. And I'm guilty of this too as I can miss some genuine positive replies as I'm always on the look out for attacks.

Again, the problem is not individual, it's systemic. It's a result of the structure of the forum. To change that, the staff will need to promote positivity on this forum.
 
With negativity in one piece one thing I really dislike is how some people seemingly are only there for views, like I tried to watch a video about Tashigi's future, and it was literally bullying her, like you need to take out your frustration by bullying a character,

Not critiquing her character or saying they don't like something but actually insulting her and just kept doing that

A good way to see how people can deeply act with humans is to observe how they talk about characters in fiction.
 
This is got to be one of the most extremely flawed ways to interact with and view humans I've ever heard off. Guess we gotta watch out for every single person who plays GTA.
I'm talking about character in fiction and in the way we talk about them through analysis. Not the way you smash your car on a random NPC in GTA (even tho in some cases, it also checks out). Empathy is a funny thing.

Sounds like another excuse to say those who don't think Carrot is an important character are sexist, racist, misogynistic, and all around bad people again.

Fiction ≠ real life.

Keep living in denial mate. It's ok.

But do not expect me to think that people who call women trash, for being just themselves and overall awesome in stories, are nice people.

Still trying to dictate how people, including women, should feel about fictional characters huh? You're so obsessed with female autonomy despite you trying to tell them how to live whenever you disagree with something they say lol

What if the woman is written to be awful? Examples would be Dee Reynolds from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia and Shiv Roy from Succession. A good test is see how people compare the male characters of that show to the female characters. Are people more like to excuse the male characters while degrading the women characters?

How is the life in your fantasy ? I hope you eat good there.

Sorry, I don't know this show. But usually when women are compared with each others, it's rarely a good sign.

Personnally, when I see a badly written woman, I'm not trashing the character, but the author.

It’s ok if you don’t know the shows. Dee Reynolds and Shiv Roy are amazingly written. They’re just awful human beings!

Doesn't matter. His mindset is that anyone who says anything he disagrees with doesn't understand the story and disrespects women in real life. Some time ago, he was so obsessed with the idea of Carrot being a SH that he claimed it was so clear and obvious, that anyone who doesn't agree must be sexist and misogynists for "being young men undermining a young girl's abilities". Carrot came nowhere close to joining and he tried blaming Oda for not understanding the character, yet he still tries to scold people for being disappointed about aspects of One Piece.

There is a reason I stay away from any discourse discussing the next nakama. It gets very toxic and I personally feel like we don’t need any more nakama because Oda has just flanderized the strawhats now.

I see where you are coming from. Yeah, in that case, I can "understand" the insults (even if I personnally prevent myself from saying them).

I'm mainly talking here about people calling genuinly good and nice character trash for no reasons other than the character not following their expectations.

that anyone who doesn't agree must be sexist and misogynists for "being young men undermining a young girl's abilities".
The way you hold on to that lie is both funny and pathetic now lmao.

I will not even try to debunk it, i've done it so many times already. You are really earning your place on your current side of the political spectrum. it's crazy.

:shocking:

Don't listen to this guy, every thing he said here is false lmao. He is just conveniently extrapoling things I did indeed say to make up his false narrative.

As lon as you don't trash a character for no reason, there is no problems.
