That is how facists gain power. They count on everyone being polite and giving them equal time/opportunity to build their platform and then next thing you know they’re the 45th President of the United States.

The belief that Jews or Blacks should be cleansed is to be tolerated such as every other belief

What you are describing is the paradox of tolerance. As Karl Popper said, “Less well known is the paradox of tolerance: Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the…

Hate speech shouldn’t be protected under freedom of speech. Countries have laws against it. Like, surprise, Germany. These aren’t differing opinions. These are incitement to hate crimes, removal of rights, mass murder. They’ll tear apart your freedom of speech and the rest of the constitution at the first chance…

EXACTLY BRUH! It amazes me we have ACTUAL Americans literally trying to hoist these guy as some sort of hero. It’s a shame that we have to experience this trash on top of having to hear about how BLM are terrorist or why are women marching in Washington. It’s like sensory overload of ignorance. THE ONLY GOOD thing…

Wish I had the video, but at my UNI on November 8th, there were borderline riots outside the freshman dorms. Everyone was shouting “fuck trump” but one IDIOT thought it was a good idea to rip his shirt off, put on an american flag bandana and stand in the middle of the crowd and shout in his HEAVY southern accent…

My late grandparents survived the Holocaust, so the fact that stories like this are still happening today is surreal if not entirely surprising. But I must admit I find the handwringing over whether or not it’s OK to punch Nazis to be kinda sickening. Dude believes that all non-whites should be removed from America in…

“Who in the hell is this Democrat-come-lately to scold Democrats on all they’ve done wrong?”

I’m not saying Trump isn’t racist! I’m just saying it’s a sad time in history now that racism is generally considered a bad thing.

To be entirely fair, the trailers were clearly trying to make it look like this would be their Guardians of the Galaxy, so my guess is people expected a lot more comedy. Dark comedy, maybe, but comedy.

You forgot “dullest” in your description of the characters. And the actors playing them.

Nah, it’s terribly white. And Marvel has a real problem with a) women of color in any respect (and no, Gamora doesn’t count) and b) Yellow Peril tropes. Daredevil is full of them, both seasons. Jessica Jones, while great, really was terrible to all the people of color on that show. Marvel needs to do better. I’m not…

He comes off like a real asshole in that interview. But then, anybody who uses the term “social justice warrior” as a way to excuse his company’s fuck up is most likely an asshole.

As a father, Jonathan Kent’s advice sucked and he was a selfish, paranoid, cynical, fear-mongering moron that told his son to hide his gifts and talents, to fear the reprisal of other men, and to even consider letting children die so that his secret would be safe. He never properly prepared Clark for the inevitable…

My very favorite thing about this story is how everyone in Smallville knows he’s Superman. They’ve known and protected him his entire life. That’s the exactly the sort of upbringing that would create someone as altruistic as Superman. An entire community treating you like family.

MoS’s self discovery ended up completely missing thier mark to be honest. “Because I got beer dumped on me, I’ll destroy this man’s livelihood.” Then we see Clark walk away without a care in the world because of (insert angst explanation from Snyder). It ended up with Zero context. I didn’t see a man struggling to…

And so far, 2 movies in (which lengthwise should count as 3), we still haven’t seen Snyder’s Superman mature one single bit.

I’ve been enjoying the heck out of this series. It nails down the character perfectly and makes him “human” without trying to give him huge flaws to over compensate for the apparent lack of them.

We mock Man of Steel for doing it poorly, not for doing it.

Might be the same topic but it’s handled better in one of the versions. MoS didn’t feel like it built into an understanding of the character, other than he’s a force of nature that we should fear. In American Alien, it feels like we’re watching Clark mature.
