This snail gets it.

I say this as someone who has spent the last year-and-a-half yelling at Bernie Bros: shut the fuck up.

I stopped long ago.

This man is worthless, stupid and evil. But we already knew that.

I'm glad that's your takeaway from this discussion.

In case there was any doubt that fascism has come to America, today decisively settled that question.

This post would be funnier if not for the cock monkeys making the same point in earnest elsewhere in the thread.

Go piss on a live wire.

How Harry Callahan elected Ronald Reagan president

It was a pretty big hit ($465 million on a $65 million budget) and got decent critical reviews, but it didn't leave much of a cultural footprint beyond the endless Sparta memes and Zack Snyder's inexplicably lucrative career. You could definitely argue that stuff like Dirty Harry, Death Wish, Taxi Driver, the Rambo

It is weird that their piece on Dirty Harry, which was pretty damn controversial when it came out, made its politics a minor part of the review whereas we're blaming the alt-right on this admittedly terrible movie.

Put your arms around me, baby

I'll try to be optimistic, but there are so many ways this could screw-up. Are they going to age up the main characters or keep the same time frame? Who will voice Luanne?

Possibly it's a sign that some people have empathy towards others, whereas you are a faux-gressive roach who would rather whine about people being upset with bigotry than bigotry itself.

Yeah, that movie was offensively bad. It's defining feature is making such broad, cartoon statements about race relations that it makes everyone with an opinion on the subject, be they NAACP lawyers or white trash rapists, equally complicit in racial tension and bigotry.

Eh, articles on Elena Ferrante get the same clueless reaction. There is a very specific type of pop culture the average AV Clubber consumes.

No, I've spent a massive amount of time dealing with bloviating pin-headed libertarians, both in real life and on the internet. (Heck, I used to consider myself a libertarian in my youth, though in retrospect I was never sociopathic enough to qualify.) I've even read Atlas Shrugged and other Ayn Rand texts. I'm
