This is pretty bad reasoning. It relies on a series of cause and effect relationships that don’t necessarily exist,

I’d say declaring “I’m a terf and proud” in the midst of seismic anti-trans laws denying basic human rights getting passed is advocating for something incredibly terrible, but hey that’s just me.

Freedom of speech protects his right to be a bigot and a bully, and it protects our rights to call Dave Chappelle a piece of shit hack. Shit cuts both ways. 

He isn’t out there advocating for anything terrible, and he’s definitely a person who would not stand for actual harm being done to anyone.

In what way exactly is Chappelle a terf? I can’t think of anything “radically feminist” he’s advocated - he’s just a plain old anti-trans bigot.

I was okay with that, the explanation being (if I remember correctly) that the galaxy went from an era of lovingly crafted ships with high aesthetic values to mass-produced, industrialised ships cranked out as quickly as possible. To me it doesn’t seem much different to the shift from the beautiful automobiles of…

This is all the explanation needed to make the ending jibe with the rest of the series.  Well done!

I hate the “I’m from a different time” bit. Bro, you’re alive and currently working. You’re in this time. If your views on the world haven’t adapted to be relevant to the world you’re living in, then update or quit.

People not listening to the people they’re trying to help and hurting them in the process is a core theme of the show.

Her good deeds are shown to have negative consequences mainly because of her self-absorption, short sightedness and performative nature. She pays for the jeans and that leads to gangsters showing up to take advantage which ends up upsetting and leading to the unemployment of the first person they “helped” at the…

It might just be me but exaggerating/lying that someone is racist is a little different than exaggerating/lying that you took drugs and went to a funeral (of someone that you weren’t even close to).

1. Just write another unnecessary think piece about Hassan Mihnaj if you want to talk about Hassan Mihnaj, don’t hijack what supposed to be an unrelated review just to talk about whatever’s on your mind that day.

If you going to make a joke about some girl/woman’s family (who can evidently be tracked down) being racist, you’d better be telling the truth about that part. After that, joke away about them.

The article isn’t about the games’ plots but about their design and gameplay sensibilities. At this point I generally prefer story-oriented games (mostly because of the time required to get into an RPG), but playing from one cutscene to the next is inherently dull, even if everything is polished and well written. 

A single single state solution is the only reasonable outcome.

Agreed. The Los Angeles Times headline for the story was “Melissa Barrera dropped from ‘Scream VII’ after pro-Palestinian posts,” which is more accurate. Even more accurate would just be that she was fired for telling the truth.

nothing she said quoted here is wrong or antisemitic. It’s just the plain old obvious that everybody with eyes can plainly see.

She wasn’t fired “over comments about Israel” as the headline states, and framing it this way makes it seem like she went off and said something crazy anti-Semitic.

Ha, I never really liked the Tim & Eric show for that exact reason. I agree. I’d much rather watch actual public access weirdos than fake ones.

That little to do on a friday that you need to pop into every comment to register your dislike of T&E style anticomedy, huh?

Watching things done 1:1 through an ironic lens has an energy that just watching a bad thing unfold doesn’t. Otherwise people would stuff theaters full of the worst comedies just to laugh AT…
