I watched the whole thing and - hopefully not spoiling things, but these things have been mentioned in most reviews - but whenever the main character is triggered by someone knocking her idol, you hear the buzzing of bees and she goes into a sort of trance and murders someone. Afterward, she suddenly has a craving for…

We as a community often demand to see Black actors not pigeonholed to play the same stereotypical characters we always see and when we finally get a chance to see a horror themed show co-created by a Black woman with Black women in the writers room. (Mali Obama wrote one of the episodes) There’s people falsely trying…

I haven’t watched it yet but that’s what I figured, his statement was obviously about what he as a director told her to do in her performance and was in no way calling her or any other actual black woman an animal in real life.

He’s a director directing an actor. He’s looking for an emotion, an approach to the character. He’s telling her that the character is acting on instinct and not reason and approach that way. Which, if you watch the show, the character did. A switch flipped whenever she heard her “trigger” statement - which is what…

“However, why should murderers be humanized?”

There are a lot of real things to get offended about, I hate it when people stoke outrage by purposefully misreading statements. Especially on a webpage founded by Henry Louis Gates Jr. for much higher purposes than dragging down a black man for the clicks.

LOL.....chiiilllllll. But he does make great points. The Root = Daily Mail?

“Twitter was ablaze with criticism, noting that him likening a Black woman to an animal is just his latest problematic comment in a string of offenses.”

that had nothing to do with it at all. people go there and only plan on street racing because theyre fucking gomers who dump 30k into their engines and nothing into suspension or tires and spent no time learning to drive so they cant launch their cars to save their lives. the street racing is the real event. i know…

Even for ChatsknayaGPT, this is a disappointing submission, Crystal. Do better.

For sure.  I cannot imagine rejecting my child or my child rejecting me for any reason.  And to have a powerful force and money behind the separation, plus knowing they’ve clung to the other parent and the other parent is encouraging the separation is just devastating.  

You’re making this sound like it’s some secluded secretive resort for the elite, but the only thing exclusive about Deer Valley is that they only allow skis, no boards etc.

He was not. It was a con from the beginning ... but it took on a life of its own and very much escaped from his grasp.

The difference is that in Hollywood, that person who gets his coffee is paid. $cientology just uses slave labour and punishes you (with literal fines) if you don’t rush off and do the cult leader’s best buddy’s every desire.

So many lives ruined by religion. I can’t imagine spending the only life you get on this anti-joy cult.

Also shows that she’s so much better off without him.

As someone who was raised in a cult, the fact Tom Cruise hasn’t seen Suri in years is not shocking at all. GUESS WHAT? The cult mind set is often much more powerful than the bonds of familial LOVE. If Tom Cruise was in Suri’s life - I would find it rather shocking.

Tom can see Suri. In their divorce agreement, he isn’t allowed to disparage or alienate Katie from Suri.

Because what you wrote isn’t relevant to how the Church cuts off people who leave. Anyone who decides they want to have a life outside of the church is cut off from contact with anyone who still is a member.

Nothing remotely “complicated” about it. The cult loves “disconnection” and declaring people SPs, and Tom Cruise is a rich dupe who chooses the cult over his daughter.
