Agreed. I think I have that confused with a book series. Honestly if I was in charge I’d put an immediate freeze on race swapping especially in period pieces on the grounds that it looks ridiculous. By all means do a show about a West African kingdom and by all means show all the slavery and everything that the west gets attacked for. Could do the same with pre-European arrival Americas

I used to not mind the occasional race swap but it’s been done to death and like you said there are political reasons behind it. Most annoying when it’s set in a specific period and it looks way out of place. Wasn’t that character explained in the King Arthur story as someone who came with the Romans but never left England?

Going well. Going to my sister’s for lunch on Christmas Day and have church on Christmas Eve. Gonna stay at my parents most of the week and work from there.

I was absolutely fine with the “we just want to be left alone” approach. Then I remember people getting attacked for questioning the over representation of gays in media. I thought that was a valid question. I remember one guy getting attacked online a while back in a forum for suggesting a gay channel if you want heavily gay content

And I remember when they said they wanted to be left alone. Or when Christians were told they were employing the slippery slope fallacy because they had issues with gay marriage

Are there any books or documentaries that explain how the lgbt crowd gained so much power? It’s ridiculous when you realize how small the population is relative to the world. Then you have the numbers of young people claiming it due to the trendiness

How exciting. What a shame I gave up on modern dc and marvel in 21

I loved those books. Was actually thinking of buying a bunch in bulk the other day

Brighter and I like him saving that girl as well as Krypto but due to the time we live in we have to be skeptical. I do hope the people throwing stuff at him in that one scene aren’t some attack on Trump supporters

Interstellar was very good. Loved the fifth dimensional concept. Phillip K Dick had a book from the 60s called Ubik. While reading it I wondered if Nolan had received inspiration from it for inception

LOTR Trilogy, Inception, or any blockbuster before the 2010s when you reallly started to get beat down about diversity and inclusion in entertainment

Never thought of it that way but it definitely is a satanic inversion

I’d love to think that this is a sign that they are learning that normal people are sick of this but I doubt it

Also I don’t get why this is the one delusion where you are celebrated. If I say I’m hearing voices or want to cut off my foot because I feel it’s superfluous they will say I’m crazy but if I see a penis between my legs and think I’m a woman well I get all sorts of adulation.
