When Hillary fainted during the campaign, she left a shoe behind. The shoe has become shorthand for Hillary is old, frail, and weak.

Astonishingly, she seems to have bounced back from her deathbed in order to go on a book tour less than a year later.

Actually, to get way too into it, the herbivores would be the minorites, right? Judy gets heavily discriminated against because she is not the "right race", and is begrudging let in on a tight leash. All the people in actual power are predators (aside from the police chief who gets by on being swole I guess). Eventually the books get turned on the predators and revolution comes but up until then the predators were doing relatively well for themselves.

Anyways what I'm saying is Zootopia is about reverse racism, peace

He's saying gerrymandering is bad, which is correct, but he's portraying it as this non-partisan corrupting force, which it's definitely not

Like, I'm not of the opinion Democrats wouldn't use gerrymandering as a weapon themselves if they could, because they probably would, but they can't, so it's still super disingenuous to imply this is a Both Sides problem

AFAIK just about everybody is OK with public roads because they benefit from those roads, in ways that not everybody benefits from libraries and schools. I'm hesitant to throw the word around so glibly, but yeah, the American right are sociopaths and narcissists, who refuse to pay for anything that doesn't (immediately and directly) benefit them.

Nah, that's not right.

Xander77 posted:

It's almost like the whole point of the Zootopia herbivore-predator relationship is to make a point about discrimination and stereotyping that wouldn't map to real world racial discrimination and stereotyping on a 1:1 basis.

Yes, that is the point. Thank you for stating the obvious.

President Trump (in his speech to the U.N.): “The United States has great strength and patience, but if it is forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea. Rocket Man is on a suicide mission for himself and for his regime.”

Rocket Man (in his speech responding to Trump): “I will surely and definitely tame the mentally deranged U.S. dotard with fire.”

CNN adds that North Korea’s foreign minister suggested a possible hydrogen bomb test over the Pacific might be in order.

The NYT has the full text of Kim Jong Un’s response to Trump’s U.N. threat here:

The speech made by the U.S. president in his maiden address on the U.N. arena in the prevailing serious circumstances, in which the situation on the Korean Peninsula has been rendered tense as never before and is inching closer to a touch-and-go state, is arousing worldwide concern.

Shaping the general idea of what he would say, I expected he would make stereotyped, prepared remarks a little different from what he used to utter in his office on the spur of the moment as he had to speak on the world’s biggest official diplomatic stage.

But, far from making remarks of any persuasive power that can be viewed to be helpful to defusing tension, he made unprecedented rude nonsense one has never heard from any of his predecessors.

A frightened dog barks louder.

I’d like to advise Trump to exercise prudence in selecting words and to be considerate of whom he speaks to when making a speech in front of the world.

The mentally deranged behavior of the U.S. president openly expressing on the U.N. arena the unethical will to “totally destroy” a sovereign state, beyond the boundary of threats of regime change or overturn of social system, makes even those with normal thinking faculty think about discretion and composure.

His remarks remind me of such words as “political layman” and “political heretic” which were in vogue in reference to Trump during his presidential election campaign.

After taking office Trump has rendered the world restless through threats and blackmail against all countries in the world. He is unfit to hold the prerogative of supreme command of a country, and he is surely a rogue and a gangster fond of playing with fire, rather than a politician.

His remarks which described the U.S. option through straightforward expression of his will have convinced me, rather than frightening or stopping me, that the path I chose is correct and that it is the one I have to follow to the last.

Now that Trump has denied the existence of and insulted me and my country in front of the eyes of the world and made the most ferocious declaration of a war in history that he would destroy the D.P.R.K. [Democratic People’s Republic of Korea], we will consider with seriousness exercising of a corresponding, highest level of hard-line countermeasure in history.

Action is the best option in treating the dotard who, hard of hearing, is uttering only what he wants to say.

As a man representing the D.P.R.K. and on behalf of the dignity and honor of my state and people and on my own, I will make the man holding the prerogative of the supreme command in the U.S. pay dearly for his speech calling for totally destroying the D.P.R.K.

This is not a rhetorical expression loved by Trump.

I am now thinking hard about what response he could have expected when he allowed such eccentric words to trip off his tongue.

Whatever Trump might have expected, he will face results beyond his expectation.

I will surely and definitely tame the mentally deranged U.S. dotard with fire.
