Oh, you started talking to me because you're a simpleton who thinks that screeching BECAUSE DRAGONS is a cogent argument and then quickly retreats behind accusations of 'racism!' when I carefully reply to your hysterical ramblings and ad hominems with actual arguments and examples. Just FYI: literally nothing that I

I don't know what's funnier, that you think anything Trump 'does' is something to brag about or that you don't realize that Israel is probably the only country in the world (including the US!) that has so far benefited from his presidency.

No, Jewish people worldwide in the 20th century only had to come to terms with the Holocaust. I guess that's small potatoes from your perspective, right?

Of course a show with dragons in it has verisimilitude! Just like a show with vampires or a show with superheroes does - all these (sub)genres have certain tropes, conventions and elements, and what works wonderfully in one show (Aliens! Minotaurs! Mad scientists!) breaks the suspense of disbelief in another. A good

So you're telling me Jewish Americans have never been formally or informally discriminated against in the US, never been targeted by hate groups or been the subject of covert or overt antisemitism in American politics? If so, I don't think you really get to lecture me on American history, post-WWII or otherwise.

I'm actually pretty critical of some of Israel's (current) policies, that doesn't mean I'll go along with hysterical accusations of it being an Apartheid state, you schmuck.

What an inane, simplistic argument.

Well, if you don't think it needs to be read more widely, then why did *you* post a link to it? Certainly not for it to languish in obscurity, yes?

Yes, how silly of me to think that actually juggling the responsibilities that come with governing one of the world's largest economies and military powers, with all the myriad diplomatic, political and military challenges that entails, is a tad more complex (just a smidgen, really) than being a wackadoo no-name

Israel is not a perfect country: to criticize it or oppose its policies one does not need to warmly and consistently embrace antisemitic groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, like Jeremy Corbyn has.

Blair isn't responsible for over a million dead in Iraq or the creation of ISIS. Blair helped remove a dictator who slaughtered his own people, twice invaded neighboring countries and did not comply with long-standing international sanctions. That the country descended into sectarian bloodshed afterwards is tragic,

Yes, people like Jonathan Freedland, Suzanne Moore and Nick Cohen, all famously right-wing nutters writing for that notoriously anti-Muslim rag, the Guardian.

Israel is not an Apartheid regime. Nearly a fifth of it's population is ethnically Arab, they have the exact same rights as other citizens.

Yes, being of Russian-Jewish descent, Chomsky obviously knows nothing about discrimination, stigmatization and being seen as 'the eternal villain' *rolls eyes*.

Europe being historically predominantly white is 'a more offensive part of European history'?

The first episode literally has two characters standing outside in a fine rain of ash with one (a seemingly friendly rural cop) blithely explaining that they must be burning 'cripples and the terminally ill' again over at the local 'hospital'.

Must've been one helluva flight!

Based on Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch, the characters got divided based on publishing history, so I imagine Whirlwind is part of the Avengers' package.

Dude, that sounds awesome! Goggins!Beetle and McHale!Speed Demon would make the perfect core of a most excellent Sinister Syndicate.

RRRICHAAAAAARRDDS!!!
