Eventually, first two seasons of DBZ aired on syndicated TV. Cartoon Network picked it up in 98

There’s a scene in the netflix show, Daybreak, where RZA as a narrator explains how eastern warrior culture became popular in the black community. Which is what i thought of reading your question. I couldn’t find a clip but here’s an article about it, and the relevant quote:

“It’s not your fault you want to be a samurai,” says RZA. “See, that’s the economical pressure being expressed as warrior code. It started when young black men couldn’t afford to go to the movies, so we watched kung fu reruns. We found beauty in things that had been neglected.” He explains the socioeconomic forces that raised a whole generation of “blerds,” spinning out into everything from Jim Kelly to The Last Dragon to Kendrick Lamar’s “Kung Fu Kenny” to The Boondocks to Wu-Tang Clan itself.

For a serious answer, as someone who grew up in a family that couldn’t afford cable television. DBZ, Sailor Moon, and Pokémon all aired on network, antenna, televison in the morning before school or after school throughout the 90’s.

So it’s probably a function of income more than race. All the poor white kids I grew up with worshiped those three shows too.

Bitch I’m a lycanthrope

Thank you for validating my scifi reference. I feel seen.

It’s a reference to a book. But essentially yes you would manipulate the curvature of the universe to put something similar to a black hole around the solar system so that nothing could escape. A Black Domain, or a Light Tomb.

Our solar system would have a greatly reduced speed of light so as to avoid being attacked by other sentient life.

Usually I avoid internet arguments, these arguments were so bad though that I couldn’t resist

I cannot stress this enough. The EU isn’t trying to keep people from going to the site. They’re just saying if the people running the site Elon Musk knowingly use it to spread false information they will be legally liable.

I can’t help replying to this.

Depends on how you build the site, my dude. You can easily code it to block everyone and then putting in exceptions takes extra effort.

How many more rakes do you want to step on?

The internet is indeed international, and also very much subject to territorial law. This is not new.

If you bother to read the article or the letter, no one is trying to keep people from accessing the site. They want X as a site to stop actively and knowingly pushing false information.

Imperialism is bad, so we have common ground there. However, not really relevant here.

Sincerely, have a good one and take care of yourself.

I really don’t understand your point at all. The EU sent them a letter pointing out that they have new laws and will be enforcing them. It’s on X to follow those laws, not follow them and pay the consequences, or geofence their service.

If Europeans want to go the site they will if its blocked or not, if it’s geofenced or not. VPNs exist. The point isn’t blocking X or preventing people from reaching it. It’s serving notice that they will be subject to the law

And it’s not like there’s one big ISP run by the EU where they can flip a switch to block X. They’d have to force each ISP to do it.

Ok… but your analogy doesn’t make any sense in this context. X isn’t eating lunch next to the EU. They’re selling sandwiches over the internet in the EU. The EU sent a letter pointing out that his sandwiches in the past have contained shit and we now have laws in place regarding shit filled sandwiches, so do not sell sandwiches that contain shit within our borders or we will pursue legal action against you.

Also, quit your bullshit. If the EU just blocked it outright there’d be a huge outcry about them censoring free speech.

I mean, pornhub pulled access to their website from my state and others because of state laws. Surely it couldn’t be that hard for X

I fucking hated that movie. My 4 year old only laughed at the YouTube cat videos they spliced in occasionally.

The ad is actually pretty accurate to the gameplay except any character in a skirt is wearing shorts under it so you don’t actually get the kind of visual that’s in OP’s screenshot.

It’d be a pretty entertaining game if it weren’t so cancerous with ads every ten seconds

Legitimately my biggest complaint about Cyberpunk 2077. Was a huge relief when they added the system to glamor gear

Fuck you spiderman, you’re not my real dad!
