    You're assuming that it's a reanimated animal

    I'm assuming it's a couple babies skeletonized and combined into a bone golem.

    We are not the same.

    Naw this is a case of the media tiptoing around him and preferring easily digested headlines.

    He's clearly not describing The Purge in the actual quote. He doesn't want to make crime legal.

    He's describing Kristallnacht. He wants the cops to be able to punish anyone they want with as much violence as they want. He wants a massacre of anyone they declare a criminal, aka minorities and dissidents.

    It's so much fucking scarier than the bullshit headlines and it's so fucking frustrating.

    That you are, whether intentionally or unintentionally, toying around with white supremacist propaganda narratives.

    That's my point.

    Narratives created to influence your mind and radicalize you.

    No one is immune to these influences. Beware.

    People made these exact same arguments about the inclusion of a black samurai in an Assassin's Creed game.

    A black samurai who was based on a real person who actually existed in history.

    The game they're playing is very obvious to anyone who's actually paying an ounce of attention, and it has nothing to do with caring about historical accuracy.

    It's bullshit. It's an excuse. It's foolish. I do not suffer it gladly.

    That's literally just a longer way of saying that it's okay if it's magic but it's not okay if it's black people.

    & yeah, I'll hold my breath for people getting equally upset about white people in fiction. Any day now. I'm sure.

    I can't disapprove a hypothetical, I guess, but a hypothetical isn't proof of anything either.

    No. Fuckin stop it. Its unbearably stupid.

    Historical fiction has existed for a long time.

    Y'all ain't out here throwing a pouty parade when someone adds technology or magic or monsters into historical fiction.

    But black people? Existing? If that's where you draw the line, it's really clear why. Make all the excuses you want.

    Representation matters. Giving the few traditionally non-white roles that get written in Hollywood to white actors is an actual problem.

    Getting mad about the existence of black characters in fiction fucking stupid. Really fucking stupid. Unjustifiably fucking stupid. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • I converted a micro PC to Linux about 6 weeks ago and have been bouncing my way around, troubleshooting and learning through a number of issues. About a week ago I hit my storage max (around 1,000 songs) and added another memory card. Since then I have exploded to 4,800 songs and growing. I've already had the joy of bringing it to a friend's house and playing all night, and I can't wait to do it again. Feels like old times. ☺️

    In 1973, at only thirty years old, Jim Croce died in a plane crash. The fifty year anniversary of his passing is coming up in September of this year. I grew up listening to his music, and there's nobody else quite like him.

    I'm watching *Duck, You Sucker* for the first time and having a blast. What's your favorite Leone film?
