Yes, when will libtards stop shoving their commie messages in our face like "Don't shoot unarmed children". Stop being political Hollywood!

No, the lesson is that while white Americans are discussing what racism means and whose lives matter, black people are being murdered by police right in front of them. I think you're really missing the point here: The gang being worried about saying the wrong things or stereotyping is, in my opinion, there to…

Yeah, the child being shot isn't the joke. The joke is that the gang, and as an extension white Americans, can't seem to identify what discrimination is. The jarring, shocking shooting slaps them in the face with the reality of the discrimination that black Americans live with daily and the humor comes from their…

For real. I enjoy this site for several reasons, but music usually isn't one of them. I believe if the avclub was around in the 70s they would have thought the Eagles were the height of rock n roll. Until they got famous, of course. That says all I have to say about my view of music opinion on this site.

Popular music has always been safe. The issue for me these days is that underground, alternative and, generally, not-so-popular music is really really safe these days, too. I think that's what Trent was getting at. Look at the albums avclub always commends. Mostly just lo-fi boring whines from white kids or rap…

Exactly. I was trying to find the part where he was wrong. I was unsuccessful. At the chance of going against Trent's point, I think the author here has gone off the rails a bit in his reaction.

I don't understand why so many people think Joe is a better character this season. He's a whiny rich kid. Oh, poor Joe. You're a rich, powerful man with a perfect jawline that has beautiful women chasing you. Such an interesting character, really. Really nuanced. I can't stand this TV trope of the conflicted…

Both Clinton and Johnson were acquitted by the senate, which needs a two-thirds majority to convict. In a scenario where the Republican House votes to impeach Trump we can infer that the (barely) Republican senate would follow suit. I'm not saying it'll happen, I'm just saying that if it gets as far as it did with…

Yes, thank you for stating these facts. It's interesting that the immediate narrative after the election was that politicians had to abandon 'special interest groups' (aka minorities and women) and start only catering to white males. You are absolutely correct, the majority of working class people voted for Clinton,…

I know there has already been a lot of comparisons to Idiocracy, but that is literally how the kid got his cabinet position in the movie. "He won a contest!". And that's now a real possibility in America. This is real life now.

I think what really bothers me about Negan is that he's supposed to represent a kind of evil, but it really just doesn't work. And the fact that everyone in this world accepts it, and apparently some fans as well, bothers me even more. I really hate to bring up politics, but I'll be vague. It reminds me of certain…

As a non-American living overseas with lots of other non-Americans from everywhere, I can tell you we were all watching November 8th to watch Captain America punch some nazis. Instead we saw him stay home and whine about his new shield looking too establishment.

Except the guy who coined the term 'alt-right' was doing the nazi salute in Washington for Trump right after the election after talking about getting rid of all coloreds from America. So…there's that.

I've never seen the show, so I can't comment on that. But as a private entity, Adult Swim has the right to financially support any show they choose for any reason.

A private entity (Adult Swim) choosing not to finance something is not censorship. Unless you believe the government should be able to come in your home and force you to listen to an hour lecture from your political opponent, I don't get this argument. For 'small government' types, you guys seem really eager to have…

The issue in America right now is that common human decency has become politicized. Apparently being kind and respectful to your fellow human is 'one side', and now the other 'side' demands equal representation. Like racism, bigotry, misogyny and hatred is actually a valid political opinion. And this is why I…

I think i explained what that meant in my first message. But I'll restate. I don't believe Lahren actually says what she believes. I don't believe she knows what she believes. You're right, I've never met her and I don't know this personally. But I do know show biz enough to know that she is doing what she can to…

These beliefs exist, and they shouldn't be ignored. I'm a big believer in John Stuart Mill's assertion that censorship only drives these nefarious positions underground to fester. But they shouldn't be treated as reasonable. That's why Stewart was such a genius at what he did, he invited some of these fringe…

See, I think this is part of the problem. Lahren and her ilk isn't a genuine person, and giving her space and time like this only normalizes her routine. And it is a routine. She is of the Ann Coulture (spelling? I don't really care enough to look it up), where she just says random outrageous things in order to…

Correction: The standard for a woman is that she is perfect, while a man just needs a pulse.
