    “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

            Looking at what the US military has done over the years, a significant proportion of people in command must be nazis in everything but name and uniform. And plenty of war criminals on the ground willing to follow illegal orders too.

            Some of them aren’t even hiding it. Remember how this year a US Marine trying to get into politics had a literal Totenkopf tattoo on his chest?

            You were the one immune to the propaganda and indoctrination for sure. My family is full of veterans of all branches of the military. Dad, brother, uncles, first cousins, and extended family I see at reunions every year. Full of racist maga fucks. But your experience is the correct one for sure. You definitely know how to tell when a white person has a confederate flag in their garage when they’re in uniform a thousand miles away from home.

              The US Military has 1.33 million people in Active Duty. You are a fool if you think even a few percent of them are full on and showing their racism.

      context: I’m a German.

      Is this some American nazi code? In Germany this is just the word for weapon.

    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.

    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.

    It makes s sense that there’d be a higher ratio of gays and mixed race couples in an apocalypse. They’re already used to dealing with violent dickheads so they’re going into it more prepared.

    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: Actually, 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.

          Many people don’t know what his personal life was, only know his hits and impact on music and his popularity. I’ve experienced it and was happy to drop the bomb that he married an African woman and had children with her.

            To be fair, he kept his personal life away from the media as much as he could. Especially later in life. So there’s a decent chance many of them simply didn’t know him beyond the hits and headlines.

    Don’t mind my green text.

    But even if I try go get inside the head of GestapoBro here… I do not understand the thing about “race mixing.”

    Has he ever seen such a person?

    They tend to be drop dead gorgeous. And statistically, they inherit fewer genetic issues, right? It literally improves genetic outcomes.

    Like, even playing ball with the eugenics and genetic purity things, it makes no sense. A modern neonazi (with statistics the original Nazis didn’t have) should love “race mixing,” but I guess they’re… just total idiots. Which explains a lot.

      That’s why fascism is a death cult. Once you eliminate the outgroup, the only way to continue is to invent a new outgroup. The gene pool becomes as self-destructive as society itself. It doesn’t have to make sense, it just has to validate to each ingroup individual that they’re not the cause of the problems of the world.
