    bro has been been channeling a spirit of his granddaddy who starved to death somewhere near Stalingrad, and forgot to context switch.

    “re-watching”. The interesting part about this is that is quite sounds like it all wasn’t a problem the first time they watched,or at least they didn’t notice, but this second time, after being brainwashed by far-right propaganda through the years, it became a problem

    I’m willing to bet a Steam game of your choosing that that bigot account is not run by a white American.

    Races are not even real, except in the same sense that god and other fictional characters are real.

    Equating that fermented puddle of human diarrhea to pussy is very upsetting to me. I happen to be a big fan of pussy and pussy doesn’t deserve that type of abuse. Other types of abuse certainly, but not that type.

      While it’s true from our perspective, but from their perspective it’s a major diss and will get under their skin.

    their relationship did weird me out a little, but mostly because of the total lack of buildup and chemistry between the actors. it felt like they only included it because it happened in the comics but did nothing to set it up and make it believable in the show. they were spending way too much time on death fakeouts and setting up an emotional backstory for someone they were about to kill to have time for a slow burn romance subplot.

    I feel like having gays and race mixing is fine, but too much of it feels like a writer’s crutch for drama writing. A personal reflection on one aspect of LGBTQIA goes a lot further in my opinion.

      this is literally what intersectionality is about. Right-wingers make fun of “black disabled lesbian basket-weavers”, but if you do happen to fall into more than one marginalised group the problems aren’t just added, they’re multiplied.

      There’s the story of the company who claimed to be perfectly equal rights on race and sex, because they hired equal numbers of men and women, and also a representative portion of Black and White people. But women weren’t hired for the factory floor, and Black people weren’t allowed in the customer-facing roles, so if you were a Black woman then you weren’t getting hired. Likewise many university LGBTQ+ societies have ongoing drama around the fact that they tend to get run by gay men organising events and activities around gay male culture, alienating the entire female membership.

      Once you become aware of how common things like this actually are, then comments insinuating you should only be allowed to pick one come across as, let’s say not great.

      Lol, tf? Are you from the 1950’s? “Too much gay stuff” is at least a semi common complaint still, even if unjustified (I’d be more open to “uses gay stuff badly, is flat and stereotypical in it’s depiction”), but “too much race mixing” is something I’d think no one but a bona fide segregation advocate would say.

        Interracial couples are fine. It doesn’t have to be a plot point. Like invincible did it well. Mark is of mixed decent.

        Check boxed representation like Disney remakes are kind of more what I have in mind.

        Edit: But checkboxed represention isn’t really what I’m exactly going for. Like shows that play up the interracial relationship, when it’s not a big deal. But no shows are coming to mind at the moment.

          I agree that there’s ways to do representation badly, but especially for interracial couples, you’d probably have to go back quite a few decades for examples.

    Of the two, I’d happily have turbo slut extrodinaire in my circle.

    The other bag of unfuckable can go sky diving with a discount bin parachute.
