I have to go now. My planet needs me.
Box office was down over the cinema because of an odd release schedule, sequel fatigue and a few tentpole releases not connesting with audiences. Film, like any business has highs and lows, and there were several very successful films, like Beauty and the Beast making a billion and It making far more money than expected. Of course, according to Ben Garrison this is because of leftists and Soros because why have reasons for things when you can just blame those two things.

Anyone know what the comic was where it had two people discussing what they wanted to eat and when one suggested pizza and the other suggests something like burgers or whatever the first one completely overreacts along the lines of "what do you have against pizza/why do you hate pizza!?"

Food items may be completely wrong, because I'm coming up empty handed with google on this one.

That is a current event. Trump recently retweeted a gif of him hitting a ball and knocking Hillary in the back with it.

It's straight up a "Thing Happened".

*"It" being Trump boosting an image of himself assaulting a political rival that was made by a white supremacist.

Look, if getting savagely pummeled resulted in people getting smarter or less racist we'd be wishing for that instead of him not being capable of spewing his dumb racism anymore.

You think reality is a circle of salt around my brain keeping witches out?

Did anyone in the media actually cover the tweet at all? The only time I saw anyone talking about it were just the usual suspects on twitter.

A lot of conservatives tend to mix up "things that the mainstream media covers" and "things I have heard from other people", so I'm just making sure.

Counterpoint:

Zyklon Ben posted:

We are supposed to fret about overpaid athletes getting concussions, which can later lead to permanent brain damage. This used to be part of the game. It has always been violent. Like boxing, such violence is part of the attraction. Don’t want to be punch drunk? Don’t box or play football.
Garrison doesn't even think CTE is just something that happens in football, he literally claims it's a selling point. He is advocating traumatic brain injury as a good thing for the sake of his entertainment. gently caress him, and if he's really so big on entertaining people with brain injuries he could do worse than to try it on himself.

I do not endorse anyone committing assault on Ben Garrison. :ssh: Unless it's really funny.

Also found this googling "strawman comic", which feels like a good summary of this thread:

Most of the comics are not political. Also, be warned, the second and third comics on the page depict unrealistically violent vomiting.
