There’s one death in the movie that bugs me. And it’s not that the character dies and more how it was treated.

I mean, nobody asked Netflix to take down those episodes, they just did that on their own because they feared potential backlash and the show isn’t as profitable as something like Dave Chappelle.
Honestly when she talks about these TERFs, it kind of feels like she’s tone policing how we criticize them. Like the illusion of respectability is more important than standing up to these assholes.
So your argument is that criticizing his bigoted comments made him a bigot? You’re just taking his word at face value?
Well, transphobia is a gateway to other prejudices.
To be fair, most the major influential elements of the X-Men we know today come from the book’s late-70's, early-80's relaunch of the X-Men book.
The Amazing Spider-Man includes a foreword by Jason Reynolds, the bestselling author of many books including Miles Morales: Spider-Man, Look Both Ways and Stamped: Racism, Antiracism And You.
The thing is, I just don’t think trying to stop transphobes from being transphobes or converting Nazis to leftism is good praxis. I think it’s genuinely good when individuals stop being bigots and make an honest effor to change but it should not be the a focus of leftists because it means appealing a very niche group…
I agree with Jesse in principle but I find that she’s a bit too sympathetic to bigots like Chappelle the benefit of the doubt. No enough to say that she is one but I immediately stopped watching her Gina Carano video when she started talking about how I’m she’s sure Carson is a nice person and if they met they’d…
Probably the same people who do EV training. I tried it and I burned out from playing Black 2 and have never finished it to this day.
I have seen way too many hack comedians make “ironically” racist jokes and than go full mask off racist later down the line.
And than they’ll start bringing up a dead trans woman who DC claimed he allegedly mentoring and was friends with even though her actual friends have said he didn’t even bother to attend her funeral.
Exactly! Had they not gone with the BS “free enterprise” bullshit most this would have died down. They got away with putting transphobes like Gervais and Chappelle on their platform before.
Let’s just skip all the nonsense and just use the Handy Dandy Dino Ironbody Translator:
But, you see, he’s rich now and being a transphobe is his business model now.
And here we go once again folks for Dino Ironbody’s contrarianism where he claims to not be supporting bigotry but he has “concerns” about the people criticizing the bigot in question.
Honestly, there should be talks of unionizing.
I before all the cis assholes claim that they didn’t think the special was “offensive” as if they’re the arbiter of what trans people can and can’t have an opinion on and use a dead woman as a prop to defend DC in the trans equivalent of “He has a Black Friend so he can’t be racist.”.
The part that bugs me about private companies going into space travel is that the endgame is to basically set up unregulated company towns in space where it’s next to impossible for there to be any real government oversight. And considering how these companies treat their employees in terms of lack of safety or even…
Kind of reminds me of the comic Crosswind by Gail Simone. It’s about a Mafia hitman and a housewife doing a Freaky Friday.
