BENGHAZI 2 posted:Their whole argument seems to revolve around if you don't literally say I hate black people it's not racist and if you want me to waste my time and energy explaining how dumb that is only to go back to "but he didn't say it so you just want it to be true" I cordially invite you to lick my balls No their argument is that the single thing being used to prove that they are racists is being taken out of context and was actually trying to express the exact opposite. What was a quote about how parents on both sides of the issue just want is best for their kids and how their motivations are being distorted by out of context quotes by the media to make the debate seem more raging than it is was then taken out of context to make the debate seem more raging than it is. I'm not saying I know for sure they didn't object to the change for horrible reasons, just that the sole thing that is being is used as proof actually meant the opposite and all you have is assumptions which you are choosing to interpret in a way that suits you. Like the only thing I can find actual proof of is they went to school meeting and Jason Jones said a thing. I literally can't find proof that they were on the against side other than the quote being taken out of context. From what I can tell it's not a piece of the story, it's the whole story. Maybe there's loads of other evidence that this was a horrible race thing I haven't seen, but like that would be stuff brought up in a discussion rather than whatever it is you do when you post here.Now I fully expect you to tell me to suck your dick and maybe double post just restating your position but in a tone that makes it seem like your view is the only obvious truth without anything to back it up.

ruddiger posted:lol what the gently caress. It's not called an idiot box because people turn to it to become smart. TV is pop trash top to bottom. I was lucky enough to see that a few years ago on Halloween and it was incredible. I highly recommend it to everyone if it comes to their area. I heard earlier today that now Richard Spencer is wearing fake glasses like a disguise so people will stop assaulting him. Between the original face punch, the time after that when he got his rear end kicked because he insulted the Indian cab driver who was going to take him away from an angry mob, and now this I can't stop laughing at him.

And, conversely, painting any opposition as classist or racist is about as bad as it can get" seem @ the least very dumb.

Hat Thoughts posted:Oh I don't know, even in their context where he gestures towards every1 quieting down & not talking to press, comments like, "That said. When you scroll down and you read rhetoric from some parents that suggests that you are opposed to this move ‘those against this idea are terrified of what it would look like if the school were to be in an area by the projects’ is dishonest at best and slanderous at worst." You're literally taking the same quotes out of context that like Brietbart did. He isn't advocating one side or another. If anything he's being consistent with Daily Show dumbness in that he's advocating for a calm debate and assuring both sides that the other side isn't crazy and that both sides have good point and are just working for their children. THat is dumb but more in the way The Daily Show stuff has always been dumb rather than this hidden racism that's being uncovered.

Dissapointed Owl posted:Timid Dick Spencer is actually fervent Neo Nazi super villain Hitler2 ?? So I had a hard time deciding what is the best Superman cover from the 40s where he's loving up Nazis and I decided it's this one because he's angrily swimming towards a U-boat periscope making an angry face. His powers make it pretty clear that this is completely unnecessary and he's totally doing this for the maximum amount of "gently caress you". The reactions from the Nazis are also priceless.  glam rock hamhock posted:I think Spencer is hoping that the people that don't like him wouldn't hit a guy with glasses.

Dissapointed Owl posted:Yeah, I completely agree but I hardly blame them for it. At least John Oliver has the occasional insightful report and sometimes a call to action that his viewers actually act on. That's already more than a comedy show is 'responsible' for imo. That whole bit in Life of Brian about the various leftist revolutionary groups being too busy sniping at each other to actually fight the romans is still the realest thing in the film. Dissapointed Owl posted:Timid Dick Spencer is actually fervent Neo Nazi super villain Hitler2 ?? No, you're thinking of Nick Spencer.

I have a friend that used to be a socialist and I always found it funny how much time he spent taking about how crazy the other socialist groups were (to be fair some of those people are stalinists which is in fact pretty crazy) Hat Thoughts posted:Yeah but that's what I mean.

Doesn't he know the glasses gag only works if you feel sorry for the person? This also means that punching someone with glasses on is inherently more satisfying! He's like an alien.

Death By The Blues posted:Remember that my director teacher in college out of the pantheon of film making history decided to use that film (American remake of the Ring) to discuss masterful and thoughtful directing. Like, there was nothing else. I had a teacher who was a proper Hitchcock expert (like he's interviewed on special features and stuff) who showed us Juno on the first day.
