This is from a very well meaning friend as well.

Especially when they were the ones making it trendy.

On a side note, at the same time they made being German quite verboten.

I've seen those same friends promote those ideas to their students. So it's a generational thing. Someone has to specifically change it.

I was in highschool during that time. At the more liberal school they made it seem like being straight, white, and male was evil. So, a lot of friends came out as gay.

You're right, whatever is happening now has been for a while and slowly growing until the crystalization point.

I don't know about you man, but I suddenly want to get cyber security skills after reading that.

There are viable out of home markets, but they go against the ideas of snow crash, so companies reject them. It's really annoying.

That's a long list. I'm not even done with Minecraft yet.

I find it a bit sad on spiderman. I've enjoyed the comics and movies.

Twitter is a raging bot trying to prove everyone else unreal.

I loved the episode where he visits home and half his family sounds English.

At least Doohan tried. I mean yeah, Shrek sounds more Scottish.

Maybe it's Geordie's accent after the translator.

There was a time when best animated film actually meant Best Film of the Year, but the rest of Hollywood didn't want to admit it.

I had just finished playing some Minecraft when I heard about Hytale, so I had to check it out.

The article is vague, you're right.

I lived in Hawaii for a while. This is a common problem. There's a reason why guys like me skipped the last day of school. It's called Kill a Haole Day. The Poly all laugh and say it's a joke, we still skipped the day. This has been festering for a long time, and the tourists basically being told the locals are brain dead and love serving the tourists doesn't help. The tourist organization also blocks any major company or investment outside of tourism, so jobs are scarce.

If you want to really be pissed off, look up the McDonald's next to the Polynesian Cultural Center. It used to be awesome. Now it's a McDonald's with small Polynesian coverings. So it feels like the culture is being stamped out except to show off for tourists.

So, if you're white, it will take years to be accepted. If you're Asian or Brown, you're already accepted. Heck, the first question asked is, where you from. I always said Germany and Scotland. The American accent was forgiven because of that.

I'm tired of Jackie Chan being used for Japanese characters. I learned Chinese to watch his movies. I learned Japanese to watch Sentai and don't laugh.
