But they said they were “inflammable” which must be the opposite of flammable...

Oh these people are just sheer loons. There is no reasoning with them nor do they care to remember history lessons unless they can put their own twist on them.

I hate to be “that person” but as a Biologist I think this normally rare event could become more common with monoculture tree plantings. Monoculture stands such as pine, Christmas trees, often for profit but sometimes touted as “eco-friendly” have almost no diversity and therefore no variety of roots to stabilize or

Literally trolling from his mother’s basement. Beautiful.

Not mentioned but significant.
“Virginia’s state corporation commission still lists Sherry’s home as the principle office location for Richard’s white nationalist organization, The National Policy Institute.”

No one gonna point out the white supremist saying “Ayo-it’s that time, fam”?

“How many times do I have to fight goddamn Nazi’s.”

Could there have been more Asian characters in this one? Maybe.

Everyone seems to forget the dust up about Idris Elba playing Heimdall (which he was awesome as), it does go both ways.

It’s NOT AT ALL THE SAME THING. And to say that they’re even close is to deny centuries of racism and white washing.

True story. I think perseverating over Trump’s *haha* minor fails is like taking a break from a dense textbook to read a stupid gossip mag. A little light junk food fare for the mind to keep it from exploding.

This whole topic is easily researchable without reaching out to anyone and especially without asking the person you call to keep the conversation personal.

Yeah, cuz there’s just so many roles for Asian actors, let’s just change them all so the white actors can have their share.
