Mr. Rogers was the best of us.

Libertarianism does mean standing by and holding the door for authoritarians, though.

Also there’s considerably less Mormon nonsense.

He was married for 51 years and had two children. Mr. Rogers wouldn’t have lied to them. He’d have explained and told them that everyone is special in their own way.

Kill the witch, throw the baby king off the cliff, and hang the creepy old men. It’s the way of the murderhobo.

Yet The Jungle Book is none of those things. It’s one of his most explicitly hateful works, and that tends to go completely unexamined in every adaptation.

Yes, Kipling is much more notably racist than his contemporaries. He wrote “The White Man’s Burden,” and The Jungle Book is an allegory for white supremacism and colonialism.

That’s why we give Warner Brother’s a pass when they segregate out their racist works with warnings. It’s an unfortunate part of the past, and it should be there for historical purposes, but we shouldn’t be remaking those works.

There’s no baby in this bathwater.

His art wasn’t about being a shithead to women, though. Kipling’s is about racism.

Isn’t it far past time we left Kipling on the trash pile of history? He was a terrible bigot.

As a Canadian I apologize for this woman, but like Beiber, Brian Adams, and Shania Twain: America, you touched her last. She’s yours now.

This would itself be a reason to do so, no?

My adult, tax paying self would be happy to throw 90% of the military and its equipment out of a plane.

I think we all know where to look.

Hard to pick a best Buffy episode? There’s no argument that it isn’t Once More, With Feeling.

Now playing

The episode where they denounce a president in collusion with foreign enemies and repressing the media? How is that at all current?

Hopefully they just see Danny Rand disintegrate and move on.

You should take your own advice. That is exactly what what you said means.
