“Compassionate Conservatism.” Won’t someone think of the 1%?

So he’s an opportunistic hypocrite who keeps his racism on the inside and speaks...compassionately...about his conservatism.
These Americans haven’t seen a real wage increase in 30 years.
These fucking conservative chickenshits and their cries of “civility.”
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: civility was the first casualty of Donald Trump’s presidency.
I mean, it’s Breitbart. (I thought they went out of business. Am I confusing them with another Neo-Nazi rag?)
I’ll probably watch this anyway, but... no danger of doing that any time soon since I don’t have Hulu. Kind of a disappointing review — but hell. Good cast, great source material.
I'll watch just to see Hugh Laurie say, "Gimme eat."
I don’t know how many times I’ve read Catch-22, but I’ve always imagined it would make a great miniseries... but only in capable hands.
I don’t think it’s that exactly. We definitely have a sense of superiority as a country (I think every country kind of does, though? I don’t know if you’ve ever been to France!) but the anti-EU thing wasn’t about us not being able to tell others what to do. It was 95% about the perception that others were telling us…
To be fair, i can see why the UK could have a problem with the EU. The UK doesn’t really get as much preferential treatment as Germany and France do as the big guys of the EU.
Much of that anti-EU bullshit seems to be built on a foundation of racism. Just as much of the “America First” rhetoric is not inherently racist until you look at it closely and realize, oh no, it’s all about racial prejudices and fear of the other.
Racism is overstated as a cause of Brexit. It’s definitely in the mix but the main cause has been the constant anti-EU bullshit in the press, and our willingness to believe it. They’ve gone on and on about “EU overreach” - with new fake stories appearing every day for decades - to the point where our continued EU…
While I appreciate why they didn’t want to go for the old Scarlet Witch costumes, what she wears in the movies is incredibly dull and just reinforces what a lifeless character she is in the MCU. Before someone says, “Why does a woman have to wear a lively costume?” she doesn’t, it’s just that Wanda was a character who…
I wouldn’t credit Marvel Studios for too much, tbh—Scarlet Witch’s costume is almost a direct lift from her X-Men: Evolution design, while other prominent female characters—Gamora and Hela, off the top of my head—either go pretty generic (Gamora) in comparison, or stay true to the original design (Hela) while eschewing…
Scarlett Witch doesnt have a costume. And I'm sorry but Captain Marvels costume looks like a leather bikers suit. Nothing about that costume says superhero to me. I dont think a lot of die hard marvel fans dig the costume either.
Scarlet Witch has never had a great costume. They keep trying to come up with new combinations of swimsuit/lingerie/trenchcoat but it always looks like a costume, rather than an outfit.
So somebody just took the USB drive from an unknown source, (presumably after a rinse) and plugged it into a non-super-hardened machine, and let it do its thing?
I recognize one of those stories in the trailer. Looks like they’re doing the infamous murder of Ken McElroy, in my state of Missouri. This is the stuff of legend. McElroy was a notorious town bully who terrorized everyone, but always managed to skirt the law. Finally the townspeople got fed up, and he was gunned down…
