That’s always been true, though.

It is SO BIZARRE how strongly you feel about this. Truly, find something else to be passionate about.
When they first announced the show, I just assumed it would be about Charon and star TV veteran Lance Reddick because he seemed like the most obvious choice.
They have a perfectly good (I mean, GREAT) Lance Reddick just sitting there as the main character for a Continental show,and instead they go with this.
I really like the John Wick movies but fuck no to Mel Gibson.
I’m a little fuzzy on the timeline but roundabout 2006 was when the infamous traffic stop happened where he referred to a deputy as “sugar tits” and went on an anti-semitic rant; 2010 was when he was caught on tape telling the mother of his child he hoped she would be “raped by a pack of n*”.

And here we go once again folks for Dino Ironbody’s contrarianism where he claims to not be supporting bigotry but he has “concerns” about the people criticizing the bigot in question.
I before all the cis assholes claim that they didn’t think the special was “offensive” as if they’re the arbiter of what trans people can and can’t have an opinion on and use a dead woman as a prop to defend DC in the trans equivalent of “He has a Black Friend so he can’t be racist.”.
