    Ayy Ichiban.

    Maybe I should get Infinite Wealth. Maybe if it is on sale and after I actually played through Like A Dragon…

    I somehow didn’t notice in two days but u apparently posted this 4 times at once? I’ve seen that bug happen before and for some reason it also happened a lot in Reddit X3

      I’m not personally all in on ACAB or anything, but the very obvious difference is that people choose to be cops but can’t choose to be black.

      Poor cops who were born into a system which gives them unreasonable power over normal people but some people don’t like them and that makes them sad. ( ˘̩╭╮˘̩) /s

          Yeah. The former is cringe, the latter is based.

          Edit: Speaking of cringe: Did you seriously compare being black with being a cop? ಠ_ಠ

              You deserve ridicule for the comparison alone.

              One is an ethnic (i.e.: born-into - not chosen) group that has historically been exploited by white europeans for centuries. The expression “black lives” has only emerged because we still live in a system which continuously devalues the lives of non-white people.

              The other group is composed of people who have willingly chosen to uphold that system.

              A cop can and should turn in their badge. A black person can’t escape their skin color.

                  That may not have been your point, but you made it badly. You cannot compare Black lives and blue lives as a meaningful comparison because, as the other user pointed out, membership in one is compulsory and optional in the other.

                  You may as well have said:

                  Imagine if a similar gif with “fuck people that don’t enjoy bestiality” was posted. You people are nuts.

                  …for all the relevance it would have to the point you’re trying to make.


                  Your point is that calling for violence on any one group is bad. That’s a fine point to argue, but using Black lives as an “equally bad” comparison point is nonsense.

                  You’re the one who brought “black lives” into this, buddy. No straw in sight, comrade.
