S'bewhaa.

She's not awful. She's a really interesting person who came from a whole other culture to make a loving relationship with another artist and has devoted her life to peace and understanding via art. John loved her.

No. People are not that stupid. They were offered racism and hate and they swallowed it up eagerly.

Come off it. Trump spent the last four years clearly using hatred of Black people and muslims to bring himself to power, and has made clear since that he intends to be consistent in that. Kanye knew that. Knew it back to front. And trying to cover himself with some nonsense about Chicago schools when Trump OBVIOUSLY…

I thought the target of it was the studied pomposity and deflection of the Microsoft workers who interpreted the reasonable question 'why does it need to be gay' as homophobia.

That was not the point of the sketch. If anything it was a satire of the necessity to invest/interrogate sexuality inappropriately.

If Trump's racism had been subtle or dogwhistle you might have a…

Then just watch a movie. The Marvel guys have decided they're going to do things this way rather than release endless origin stories. If you don't like that, or don't want to have to do some homework before you see a film, just don't go. Personally I enjoy seeing what they do with different characters and looking up…
