You could always find one or two guys kicking around the circuit who insisted that there had been full, operating Potemkin villages in the USA, and there were some interesting stories about what had happened to them in '91 and after.

"Still, those little touches mentioned above are enough to stop this from being completely disposable."

That escalated quickly.

Someone might comment that they disagree! It's true—you're better off remaining safe from such a thing!

That is a good way of putting it.

Wonderful music during the marriage scene.

I am surprised people seem to expect the whole series never to catch up with the present. I would expect they'll be done with flashback this season or the next, and then some kind of story would continue forward from the time of the black-and-white segments we've seen so far.

The left claimed he was a "Nazi father figure." Imageboarders had been repurposing pictures of the frog in thousands of ways for many years, which is why it was so hilarious when the left tried to do that, and why that idea, a joke, was hence perpetuated with more cartoon frogs. You'd know that if you'd ever spent any…

Wrong. The vast majority are joking.

No. I've spent years in these communities. It's a patently ridiculous idea that you see some hidden truth of people's motivations that I cannot. They are BASED AROUND jokes and upsetting people like yourself. This should have been obvious when people suddenly started believing everything they said as literal truth and…

So, in conclusion, you've been unable to tell when vast numbers of people were joking.

Image macros (what you describe) are not the same as memes.

"On TV, if all you see is an all-white world, what’s the difference between making a show that’s about racists and making a racist show?"

"Don’t skip it, if you possibly can—it’s brutal, but vital—but don’t be a hero. Take care of yourself."

"It's astounding to me that there are so many men, and come to that, far too many women that would be perfectly happy to, and in their own little ways already do make a world like Gilead a reality."

Great comments, my fellow pussy hatters! The parallels to Trump's America are indeed striking. As roving redhat death squads under Trump's command have taken away all my rights EXCEPT the right to enjoy high-definition streaming programs on my televisions, computers, and mobile devices, it is easy to watch The…

I'm sorry Marvel's own claims are that upsetting to you. I made no value judgments about that information one way or the other, so I bear no responsibility for any suicidal impulse that may result :)

Individual examples are not meaningful in this case; it's a general statement, and you won't find any doctors at all who suggest Ms. Moran's substance abuse habits were of health benefit to her. Or are you anti-science?

Considering the comics have been in a sales free-fall recently blamed on too much identity politics, they are unlikely to agree with the conclusion that the cash-cow MCU (though this series is far from the most profitable part) is overdue to be politicized.

Plenty. The Marvel cinematic universe hasn't been highly politicized, unlike the comics.
