‘The state never proved that I was into child porn, but because of the child porn I was into, I’ve lost all credibility.’

Damn! Beat me to it:

These look a lot like the traditional beaded gauntlet-style leather gloves that originated in First Nations, Métis and Native American culture! https://www.google.ca/search?biw=1920&bih=1006&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=zKVnWs24FMHksAWUr77gCQ&q=traditional+beaded+gauntlet+gloves&oq=traditional+beaded+gauntlet+gloves

“I’m certainly not embarrassed by these pants I shit in after a night of heavy drinking. I’m burning them for an entirely different reason.”

Depends how raw the water is.

How much water must one drink to heal a fracture?

It would have been literally one minute. Any take on this subject that is not “pierce is petty as hell and should stop being an asshole” is objectively wrong.

A good thing to see after reading/hearing all of these brave, gruesome statements:

GW truly is something, legendary. Thirty years from now when my grandkids hear the names Curry, Thompson, Green, their eyes will go wide and they’ll say they were the greatest ever. They’ll also say Durant was a bitch.

No one owes you anything. Sorry the film wasnt what YOU wanted it to be. This might suprise you but your opinion means very little.

We can disagree that including a “powerful topic” in an artistic work demands that it be the centerpiece.

That’s because the film you watched—the film we’re discussing—isn’t a thoughtful meditation about how a person is socialized to become a racist. You’re criticizing a piece of art for not being another piece of art.

Totally disagree. Rockwell’s character is ostracized by the other members of the police force because his bigotry and violence show him to be an unprofessional bad cop who is an embarrassment to everyone around him. His attempts at “redemption” are merely selfish acts to heal his own sense of self-worth and get him…

Did we watch the same film?

Well first, are you ignoring the white guy he tortures on screen?

I think if you made Rockwell violent and angry but not a racist, and still a cop, the reaction would be: “Oh, so we’re just not going to ADDRESS how RACIST cops can be???”

I don’t think that’s true at all. Rockwell’s character is fired from his job! (And after assaulting a white man, not a black man — which I’m sure some would take as evidence of the movie’s racism but to me seems moresadly reflective of reality.) The movie’s feeling about the teeing up violence that happens towards the…

The idea that it’s “offensive” to suggest we might see our preferred cultural targets as anything less than one-dimensional monsters is a reminder that when people say they like art that’s “challenging” and “subversive”, they don’t really mean it.

So, we complain about the trend of movies bowing to audience expectations, and then we slam movies for not being as woke (or the wrong kind of woke) as we expect them to be?
