oh that nutjob. i hated how bernie just backed away and let them steal the mic and poo poo on him.

It was a good move actually. Killer Mike gave him props during a speech for it, and told it was proof that he actually cared about black lives.

That being said? Not a fan of that woman.

This is a series of books about a group of people that are born superior to their fellow men, their inferiors are presented as both something to be mocked and feared, and this superior race routinely practices slavery. They are almost universally white except for their Asian friend Cho Chang the Chinamen. Also, these are the protagonists of the novels.

you forgot when they replaced the one fat white bully with a black guy, who then prominently roasts to death in the last movies(like the book). yeah the books are weird and meh, fun when young but really hosed up in a lot of ways going back to them. but they are woke now or some poo poo.

legitimately slammed my fist on the table after reading that tweet. harry potter is the bible except for 3%er democrats instead of evangelicals. on the other hand, justin trudeau showed off his star wars socks in front of world leaders to show that he was cool and with it, so it's not like this kind of embarrassing poo poo is exclusive to us

speaking of which, what happened to Hunger Games comparisons? that poo poo fell off the face of the earth

it's like that lady that was an avowed hilldawg and also owned a screen printing company that featured TROMP THAT BITCH shirts and other pro-trump apparel. when asked why she was selling those shirts despite being a hilldawg herself, she said she sold them because "people will buy them, and I have an obligation to my shareholders to provide a positive ROI and positive quarterly fiscal comps".

capitalism knows no bounds
i'm about to prove this. i have five of the seven harry potter books, two copies of the first book (one hardcover, one paperback), and those two mini books (one of which is "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them"). i haven't read them in ages so i'm going to sell them on ebay or whatever. if i end up selling them to someone who ends up thinking that harry potter is the height of political resistance, then i don't give a poo poo. i just don't want to own these embarrassing books anymore

Didn't that happen during the production of the first movie? It's not like the first movie really has images from the cartoon. All the robots look completely different and turn into different things. It's remarkably free of classic Transformers imagery

'It's easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism.'
yeah, the transformers films might've started off the crazy nostalgia blockbuster craze that metastasised into the Marvel Cinematic Universe but they're very different beasts. tf5 is much more -- how to say it -- reverential and referential to the wider franchise than the first four ever were.

and, yes, it does have a scene where harriet tubman is part of a secret transformer illuminati society. but, according to the film, so was just about anyone who ever had a mention in a history book. events, too (megatron did krakatoa). it's completely unhinged.

i think the crowd that looked to transformers to jumpstart nostalgia mostly left after transformers 2, the movie with the jive-talking robots and (for no apparent reason) giant robot testicles
