Not even the original thunder cats



I think when a lot of people remember Thundercats, they're basically just thinking of the awesome and well animated opening title sequence or whatever, and not the actual show, which was just as poorly and cheaply animated as pretty much all the other samey looking stuff from the 80s. Old Thundercats had the same look and tone as all the other 80s action cartoons that were popular then, and new Thundercats has the same look and tone as the more silly kind of cartoon that's popular now. Wow, outrage.

My brother's ~10 year old daughters have discovered 80s He-Man, and they think it's the greatest thing ever.

He and I laugh at the ludicrous toy placements and rotoscoped animation and overwrought scene wipes ("I wish I could have transitions like that in my life. Okay I'm going to work *HEEEE-MAN*"), and meanwhile they sit and stare enraptured at the screen

Speaking at a festival is still considered social media of a sort, aye? Because Germaine Greer has gone off the deep end. And I know that anti-feminism has often been disguised in the language I just used, so let me summarise one suggestion she has. Acknowledging that the majority of rape cases are not violent, aggressive situations (no argument from me) and so penalties for rape should be reduced (???!?!!???!?).

"we need to lower the penalties for rape, but also permanently brand rapists on their face." I don't think reduced sentence means what she thinks it means.

Having been raped in one of her scenarios she compares to bad sex, she can go gently caress herself. No, penises aren't lethal (who the gently caress does she think is saying that?). One still ruined my life for almost a decade.

For some reason, every time someone on the right agrees with them, terminally woke people love to get real mad. Yeah, he hosed up in that it’s 13 percent and not 13 million, but O’Reilly saying “racism bad” is being met with a surprising amount of vitriol.

Thanks for the poo poo summary that overlooks the fact that she wants that to happen so people actually go to jail for rape (which practically never happens), that our definition of rape should be widened in the courts and that doing that would mean a clear delineation between violent sexual crimes and less violent ones.

Its definitely a hot take but to all it "anti-feminism" is lazy as poo poo

The implication of Bill O'Reilly's condemnation is that there's not evidence America is racist as hell without people like Roseanne being very pointedly racist. She "sent a signal that racism is alive and well" as if before that people were forgetting it was. Good on O'Reilly for at least having a breaking point but he's not doing anybody any favors here.

I've no intention of spending any time on O'Reilly, but I'm assuming he's getting dunked on for the message "holy poo poo, hey, black people, it turns out racism is still around!" after 8 years of the Obama presidency and also the current president being a literal white supremacist backed by actual nazis.

It's because his version has 'Overt & open' in front of it. If Roseanne had made some vague dogwhistle comment he'd defend her.

Why would an expansion of the definition of rape require such a delineation?

Not a devil's advocate, am curious - assault covers a wide range of interactions including very basic physical interaction; but the punishment is no less.

E - of course, I am not involved in law, either, so I could be utterly mistaken, I'll grant you.
