Except that I didn't make fun of anything, I merely pointed out that it's plausible that Netflix felt like they had to dumb the Witcher down for American audiences.
And yeah, I recognize that sucks, but you don't have to do that because of external forces, you have to do that because many people in the group called "Americans" repeatedly vote for politicians who put those systems in place. So when people call Americans stupid, there's a reason for it. Many are stupid and vote for stupid shit that goes directly against their interest. I'm sorry if you don't like to hear that or be associated with your fellow countrypeople who do, but it's the reality of the situation when we're talking about "Americans" as a whole.
This you?
You weren't just making fun, you were saying you're sick of us being bothered when people made fun of us.
>You weren't just making fun, you were saying you're sick of us being bothered when people made fun of us.
Except that the context in which I was replying was not one where someone felt picked on because they got made fun of, it was one where someone felt picked on because someone said that it's plausible they dumbed down the Witcher for Americans.
@masterspace Yeah, but YOU are the one who brought public school into it and you did it in a clever little jokey way.
If you had said "Well, that's what you get for attacking the wrong country", it would be one thing. But you went and made fun of the public school system. You punched down. And now, for your sins, you are stuck in this conversation.
>Yeah, but YOU are the one who brought public school into it and you did it in a clever little jokey way.
Because the quality of education affects intelligence, or more specifically, the ability to hold more/less complex witcher plotlines together in your head, so it is a rationale thing to bring up when discussing whether or not Americans are actually capable of holding more/less complex witcher plotlines together in their heads.
>You punched down
No, I merely held up a mirror and caused you to have a temper tantrum
I'd hate to see how you'd react to an actual temper tantrum.
No, man. You're mocking people who don't have access to a high standard of learning. You're trying to rationalize that away so that you don't have to feel bad about it.
Again, didn't mock.
Did too.
Thought the thin skinned temper tantrum cry baby
@masterspace You're really so obsessed with the last word you're gonna let this dissolve into name-calling? are you still IN school?
I know you are but what am I?
@masterspace Less tired of this than me. You win this time, Canada.
