Funny you mention that. Personally, I can’t wait for Biden to become president just to see everyone’s reaction when the ‘good guys’ take back control yet everything is still just as absolutely shite as it was, even before the COVID outbreak.

I’m curious whether CNN and Twitter blueticks are going to actually take the…

It’s not ‘obsessing over Hillary Clinton’s every word and move’ to point out that someone whose entire lifelong legacy is now defined by managing to lose a presidential election to Donald-fucking-Trump should probably just stay out of public spotlight at this point.

Is Hillary just going to spend the rest of her life passive-aggressively bitching about Donald Trump denying her ’rightful coronation’ like she wasn’t the one who managed to lose against Donald-fucking-Trump?

I’m sure if Louis CK ended up penniless in a ditch, your point would have been that actually this was a very good thing that he totally deserved.

For a more interesting example, Aziz Ansari was very much a rising star completely cut down by what the internet consensus has since decided was pretty much a borderline…

At the risk of getting even more controversial, I wouldn’t necessarily say that “an evil wizard brainwashed my girlfriend into being evil and trying to kill me so I made her forget about the brainwashing and later had sex with her” counts as “rape”.

David has clearly crossed boundaries that he should have handled…

Nice straw man you set up to argue with, but the problem it solves is the lack of representation in media.

How do you feel about Empire Strikes back WHITEWASHING a beloved black character?

Probably for the best as whereas before that last 1/4 would have rather pissed you off, now you can just go directly into Season 2.

Good to hear.

Season 1 consisted of a great cast, characters, and premise, in search of a much better show. It was pretty annoying just how much UA managed to overshadow Doom Patrol despite the latter being all-around superior.

She’s a Cambridge-educated PoliSci graduate who willingly chose to focus on her music and modelling careers, has acting credits, and seems to have largely just hoovered around the London scene for a good couple of years not doing too much until relatively recently. She’s doing just fine.

I don’t think she’s necessarily…

Okay, but I grew up, work, and live in the UK and have had for the past 15 years, meaning I’ve spent more time and contributed to the country than most Commonwealth immigrants, yet they’re the ones who can pretty much come in fresh off the boat and vote in general elections. C’est la vie.

It’s dumb, arbitrary, and one…

Maybe?

As a visual spectacle, obviously not, but if you wanna get into that introspective analytical mindset and just tear the movie down, it’s really quite interesting how much of it is very obviously adapted from a 15 year old’s Wattpad novel.

Like it’s obviously bad because it’s a rom com written almost exclusively…

I legitimately love the original in an MST3K bad movie kind of way.

Must have watched it like six or seven times now just because it’s fucking hilarious introducing new unsuspecting people to The Kissing Booth.

Yeah, I would also say the film is fairly explicit about Knives being a better match for Scott than Ramona, but also acknowledges that Knives as a person deserves far better than getting wrapped up in Scott’s bullshit.

Thus Scott & Ramona end up together if only because in that moment they’re both equally shitty…

Not in the slightest.

It honestly says a lot about your political leanings that you think this is some kind of a gotcha argument.

While I have no doubt that Gomez is less of a hack than Barsanti, that’s the issue with the ‘oppresion olympics’-style politics isn’t it?

Now you gotta decide whether it’s more woke siding with the Blacks or the Jews as the more oppressed minority, especially what with all that ongoing BLM/systemic racism/white…

Hey, that’s kind of coming back too!

Remember the massive controversy over Sam Rockwell’s character in Three Billboards?

Aye, everyone be hating on first-past-the-post right up until the moment they win.

I’ll remember this comment the next time something related to MAGA & country music comes up.

I hate Trump as much as the next guy and Hillary would have probably* made for a superior president by most* accounts, but still stop trying to make to make me YAAS QUEEN SLAY stan Hilary-fucking-Clinton.

(*In fairness to Trump, be it via cowardice or incompetence, he has yet to drag America into a new major…
