Why stick Kacey Rohl’s Alena in this episode and its flashbacks if not to make her the real villain behind it all? Diaz is a nobody, he’s filler with no setup here, but Alena at least has knowledge and connection to Caden James, and her morals are suspect. What a waste of an episode, I’m glad they did something to…

Doesn’t it feel like a lot of the characters had jettisoned backstories? There were interactions between characters that didn’t seem to make a lot of sense and hinted at things left on the cutting room floor.

Zack Handlen = Neil Degrasse Tyson. He’s not necessarily wrong, but he’s spoiling the fun.
 

After this episode I can understand why she doesn’t want to do another season.

Overall I liked this episode but that’s not how EC works. It’s not an abortion pill. Those are two different things. And it bugs me that they got that wrong because it plays right into far right fears about EC.

“how is being an ANTIFA apologist any different than being an apologist for far-right protesters?“

I’m hoping that if this takes off they offer a digital version of Android: Netrunner or Legend of the Five Rings. Fantasy Flight’s LCGs are a lot of fun but sometimes it can be hard to find a game.

Yeah, that’s not actually a distinction we need to concern ourselves with right now. Oh, and it absolutely is something Hoffman has been accused of in multiple instances by several people.

It’s rare that one man can manage to hold a 17 year old PETA volunteer’s views on animal rights AND an 85 year old racist grandfather’s views of multiculturalism at the same time. He has also reached that far more common right wing sweet spot of dismissing actual sexual assaults in the news while pretending that…

Ah but did you catch the best joke in the movie IMO?

If you’re confused about this move, I suggest you read “Girls to the Front” a history of Riot Grrl, and why musicians like Kathleen Hannah felt it was important to create space for women in the front of the venue. It’s wonderful to see this sentiment being carried on here for Women of Color.

Who gives a fuck what Wilders and those like him think? Drown. Them. Out.

On the other hand, why should I give two shits what right wing publications think about anything whatsoever?

The Canary Cry fastball special was so ridiculous, and I’m so glad he crashed into a car. If they had played it straight, it would not have worked.

Bullies need a punch in the face. Ignoring them just leads to more bullying because they know you won’t do anything about it.

This is a really excellent point (re: bullying). Nothing more to say than I enjoyed and agree with your take.

It was an exchange of ideas. Their ideas were projected throughout the lecture hall drowning out his. He wanted to preach hate, they disagreed, loudly.

Nope. Its cool as fuck. Shutting down Nazis is cooler than a young Paul Newman lighting a cigarette with a laser while he’s riding a fucking dinosaur. There is literally nothing cooler and more American than punching Nazis right in their fucking Nazi fascist cunt faces.

Piss off. Nazi apologia deserves only contempt, and what you’re doing is nothing but enabling him and his ilk.

any future offspring may well get my last name to prove I can.
