(in a country that doesn’t usually enjoy “Black ops movies”)
Depends on the country, really. Some countries are a lot more dub-friendly, some prefer subtitles, some mix it up fairly well.
Good to know that Europeans don’t like dubbed movies. Subtitles are where it’s at.
I have probably said this a thousand times since Charlottesville:
The entire way this country works is by convincing white people that they are the underdogs in their own personal movie. That anyone that is different is just like the baddies in every action movie they’ve ever watched where one white guy slaughters an arm full of brown people. And that we’re all just waiting for the…
Fuck that bullshit. Women, Black and brown people and LGBT people are harassed, beaten and treated like subhumans on a daily fucking basis and you don’t see us using “bullying” as an excuse to go out and kill a bunch of random people. Lashing out and wanting to commit acts of terror is a function of toxic masculinity.…
I can’t believe none of you said School Ties. That movie was a very important part of my high school experience. I rented it once from Blockbuster and watched it four times in one weekend. I loved him in the most sincere way of a 16-year-old’s crush. This article made me very sad. He should have run away with me in…
Five years on, we’ll be lucky if anyone remembers this. He should never have won last year after his absurd display of a campaign.
Watched this with girlfriends parents and her brother and his wife. All of them NRA, trumptards, except my GF. They kept yelling trumpublican and nra talking points every time a kid would speak. Was brutal. All were in agrreement....”If I had a gun I would’ve shot him in a second.” “Need more guns in school!”
Meanwhile, Florida just declared porn a public health risk...because it’s only okay for teenagers to shoot loads so long as they come out the barrel of a gun.
My thoughts exactly, and it’s one of the most prevalent reasons we’re in this horrific mess right now. Journalists have become less interested in the truth than they are in fucking clicks and ratings. Shame on every last one of them.
That was savage. He got destroyed. He thought he was playing the crowd, and he got fucking destroyed by the crowd.
The fact that we’re applauding teenagers for asking hard questions goes to show that the adult journalists have not been asking hard questions for years.
People’s resilience and ability to not be physically harmed by words is not a reason to perpetuate demeaning and hateful expressions, even if they’ve lost some of that ugliness over time. I get what you’re saying here (they’re only words, right?), but this concept of “people just shouldn’t take it the wrong way” is…
Yeah. I mean, #allmomsmatter, but Black people who are mixed and have a Black mother tend to have a much better grip on their Blackness than those who do not.
I resent Anna Holmes’ piece to my core because it pushes a timehonored theory of every increasing popularity that black people can be saved with just a little bit of whiteness, and she pushes that theory without even really being cognizant that she’s doing it.
When your model of womanhood, i.e., mom, is white...
I’m a black, not light, but not dark, skinned woman who was adopted by white parents. I’m blackity, black, black, but “white adjacent.” I grew up in a primarily white environment which makes navigation easier, but it never lets me believe I’m anything but black. I just know how, to navigate a PW Environment. THAT…

In these dark, cold winter months, let us take comfort in the amazing things black people are doing in literature.…
