I know the left loves pointing out the white actors as natives, or John Wayne as Genghis Khan but even then they at least tried to look like the parts they played. Now they just cast Sub-Saharan Africans just to be discordant with the past.
Exactly. When they trot out the “but John Wayne” excuse I point out how long ago it was and also add “fine that was dumb, now how about we discuss how dumb this modern day casting is”
Nothing points out an unprincipled position more than ignoring those principles when it behooves you. On a different tangent, you were in the military, did you hear the word behoove before your service? I know you heard it in service because everyone uses it
Yea I heard it. My mom used to get Reader’s Digest and there was a vocabulary lesson in each issue she made us go over as well as vocabulary tapes we would listen to in the car. She insisted we “don’t sound like fools” and speak the Queen’s English.
Which is the crux of my perspective on politics tbh.
If you don't share my moral alignment you can't shame me, so any interaction can't be a high order one, it's at best peace, and more likely competition for resources.
And as I said, without a shared morality, you can't shame me for picking my own side.
So yes my enemies deserve to lose and to suffer. If they didnt they wouldn't be my enemies.
I’ve seen a lot of those “they should’ve built a wall” memes. I asked one of these people if they have ever done any world history research because the history of civilization is one group conquering another. The west seems to be the only ones still wringing their hands over it
They always use the same excuse: if the person is "coloured," then their skin color is an integral part of their identity. If they're white, then they can be any other colour as they have no identity. It's so tired.

Your parents sound like they were awesome at parenting
“Mass immigration is good.”
“Wasn’t too good for the native Americans.”
“This is different.”
“How?”
“Because you deserve it.”

I hereby submit my nomination for who plays MLK's next biopic. Mark Ruffalo.
Honestly why not? I’d love to see them twist themselves into knots explaining why that isn’t ok.
