The reaction has been hilarious, especially considering that "Joker is pregnant!" is absolutely a golden age story.

Get out of here with that Woke Mind Virus modern poo poo, besmirching the purity of American comics history, GOD




A Golden Age story would have had both the Joker and Batman be pregnant and Robin in an apron heating up Bat-Bottles and poo poo like that

When I was reading Nixonland, it threw me for a loop to hear contemporary anti-war voices talk about Vietnamese casualties. My entire life, it's always been about the senseless loss of American lives, the damage to the American psyche, the effect it had on a generation of Americans... but never the people that actually, y'know... lived in Vietnam.

From what I've heard, the Ken Burns documentary is no exception to this framing.

I guess.

There have been some recent developments that go back to suggesting the animal crossover theory, so expect to see some rapid vacillation between racism about lab leaks and racism about wet markets.

Although the new thing is about raccoon dogs and not bats, so I dunno. Maybe he was only paying half-attention.

It's seriously incomprehensible. It's food for children in school. I don't even care if they're poor. Let them have free food.

It is so far out of bounds from my way of thinking I literally cannot comprehend how a person could hold this opinion.

The key here is that the "taxpayer" is a white guy (as always) and we can assume those hungry students are not.

George Bailey isn't a banker, that's whole point of the loving scene! It's a Building & Loan, people in the community pay in to fund construction of housing that's sold at low down payments (including to immigrants, might I add) as an alternative to the local slumlord bleeding renters dry! People only go there to pull out their money after the bank has shut down, because it's literally the 1929 crash! :rant:

The growing open resentment of the military is one of the most interesting things about post-Trump republicans. The military was THE sacred cow of the right, and criticizing it on any level was grounds for expulsion, but now they're a bunch of sissified wussy cucks like everything else that isn't directly sucking off Trump.

Once I heard someone point out that "are troops" we're told to support has shifted from the military (external enemies, under some modicum of scrutiny as a federal institution) to the police (internal enemies, literally above the law) a lot of things slid into place. The police are fighting the real war, purging America of its undesirables and deviants, without any of that "diversity training" or "hiring quota" nonsense.
