“Killmonger’s motives were questionable? Uh, he wanted Black folks around the diaspora to be free. What’s the question?”

You can’t save yourself by destroying someone else. Excuse me, but my mother is white and my father is black. All this talk about “the takeover” makes me think people like you want my mother, who is a gem in this world, and my family - dead :/

Wanted Black men to be free. There’s a difference.

So how do you feel about the women he killed?

Shitting on children. Keep fighting the good fight.

Sure, Mr. bassguitarhero, we white people just love to call a black person a liar.

I also loved him in short-lived series The Good Guys with Colin Hanks, where he was a sleazy 70's throwback on the Dallas police force, where he recited such lines as “Frank liked tacos. And Black chicks!...African-American...women (cough)“.

Why is that fat Steelers fan wearing Bengals gear?

Whiskey is disgusting.

Nah, it’s definitely more complicated. I imagine “brought up right” means raised with the decency to not be hateful, but never interacting with people of color and/or not understanding the depths to which latent biases can reach. I have friends who had never met anyone not white and Christian until coming to college:

it doesn’t even occur to them that they would be well advised (artistically and socially) to adhere to racial makeup of source material.

I wondered how long it would take for someone to rant “racism” and “white privilege”, as that is the answer to everything.

Of course it’s for clicks.

If the coach fronted the money for the sled and they’re kicking her off the team right before the Olympics (honestly, for whatever reason...it doesn’t even matter), then they really should pay her for the sled if they want to use it. They can’t really just claim it as theirs if they never paid for it. This whole thing

Yep. That’s canon.

Tim the Prodigal Sorcerer or GTFO.

Discovery wasn’t perfect, but I will say this - it may have been the best first season in the franchise.

This is like telling the US-born child of immigrants that they’re not really American because of their lineage.

And if you want to get really particular about it (especially in a bad faith way)....Natalie Portman was born in Israel, a country in Asia.

no, according to others online (here and elsewhere, but I can’t verify with the book itself) that line comes from the sequel (which did not exist when the screenplay was written).
