If you really had to wait for the credits to realize this was tacked on to a real concert at Rikers, you're in the wrong line of work.

Writes itself? Maybe that's why it's so pathetic. So far this is the worst season ever.

What a peculiar world view. Feudalism was at its core a grant of land by the king to the peerage. Capitalism is the opportunity to amass wealth by dint of work and intelligence. In pure capitalism, one gets to keep the wealth one has amassed by those means, and dispose of it as one will. The two systems are

Yawn. You bore me.

And you're a liar.

Feudalism was not capitalism. The systems could not be more different.

Anyone who rails against "capitalism" is an advocate of taking people's property away.

Capitalism as a foil? Wow. Way to miss the boat entirely. They are not advocating stealing the property that people have worked to obtain.

It was just too ridiculous. Anyone over the age of 5 would find this absurd. Why bother setting something in the culture of the FBI if you completely disregard every aspect of it? I'm not asking for complete verisimilitude, but how about something that at least can pass among the uninitiated?

There is no "mass incarceration." Each and every prisoner has been tried and convicted separately, as an individual. Do some get convicted erroneously? Of course. But no one is out rounding up young black men to lock them away.

and I suppose that has nothing to do with the ridiculously high percentage of violent crimes committed by young black men?

"Mass incarceration" is a fiction.

Oh good. The ruler of the most technologically advanced foreign country should have a lot to say about being poor and black in the U.S. Because, you know, all blacks think alike, right?

heh.

And knowing Moore, he's probably more horrified by that than anyone.

I'm sorry to hear that. I loved reading Claremont's X-Men. But my thesis was on Hamlet.

I'm none of above. I grew up reading Marvel and DC in the '70s. But I never mistook it for a classical education, which I also had.

Has education fallen so far that university reading lists now include comic books?

Pretty interesting that much like the rest of the world, South Park's vision for peace in the middle east requires that Israel give up its sovereignty.
