FFS the cops aren't even dead. They'll be fine. The guy who shot them is going to be hunted down and probably murdered by a police hit squad. Cry me a loving river Ramirez.

Rall: First Elect Obama, Then Move Left!Ted Rall posted:Some liberals see politics like football, in which moving the ball closer to the goal means you are winning. Thus they are encouraging progressives to vote for Joe Biden, arguing that Biden’s centrism would be an improvement over Trump. Biden, they say, can be pressured more easily from the left than Trump. But that’ds not at all what happened when Biden’s boss was president.

Constantly pretending not to understand the riots are about response and accountability, not (well, much less) that a crime happened in the first place. Imagine how things would have gone down if George Floyd's killers had been immediately arrested and scheduled for trial.

Alhazred posted:What the gently caress? Netflix released a film called Cuties, that was supposed to be a critical look at sexualization of girls at a young age. The way Netflix marketed it was incredibly bad (pictures of young girls in weird positions) so natually QAnon types said Netflix was showing child porn without watching it.

The chud and Qanon line about Cuties is that Netflix is now literally distributing child pornography, so the government has a vested interest in shutting it down, arresting executives, and whatnot. Which, y'know, isn't true, but the usual suspect politicians are all calling for a DOJ investigation. It fits well with their whole "degeneracy of the West" line they keep pushing, and they figure that, hey, they got The Hunt cancelled (or at least delayed), this will be an even BIGGER trophy! Whoever is in charge of marketing at Netflix sure hosed up bad.

This is the director of Cuties: Why QAnon decided to take an awful ad campaign and spin it into the movie itself being softcore pedophilia should now be more apparent.

The whole Cuties thing seems like some particularly dumb virtue signaling. Like, people REALLY need other people to know that they think pedophilia is bad even though that's the point of the film. I don't care if Netflix did a poo poo job marketing it either. I know a lot of the complaints are "they're SHOWING what's essentially child porn in order to condemn it???" but I don't really see how you do a documentary on child pageants without showing how disgusting and exploitative they are. If we're going on the logic that "it will just attract pedos" then we also need to have some words with like the Disney Channel and probably 70% of the anime genre.

It's not really about pedophilia though? I mean sure there's a focus on how young pre-teens are influenced to sexualize themselves to be cool and fit-in, and while the girls in the movie are aware of the connotations of what they are doing, they certainly and naturally don't see themselves nor do they want to be considered as sexualized. They find the dancing and the dances to be super-fun, and frankly dancing is fun, whatever the style. It's the vehicle that was chosen by the director to also represent a French girl's path to breaking with her immigrant family's traditions, especially the one that is requiring her mother to cheerfully put up with her father marrying a second wife. In the process of acting out she's also discovering herself as an individual. But this is getting off-topic and I'll take it to Ciné-D if necessary.

If you haven't, give this video a watch (it's long, but it's fun, well-presented, and engages with the topic in a much more pointed way than previous attempts). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTfhYyTuT44 QAnon is the new Biggest Umbrella Conspiracy, it's already in the death spiral of declaring objective measurable reality an enemy, and those who believe in it are incredibly vulnerable to picking up every other conspiracy because "do you check facts" is one of their primary filters.

I mean, if this scenario repeated itself thousand of times year after year. Conservatives keep doing this where something bad happens, the justice system works like we all think it should, and they go "WHERE ARE THE PROTESTS" Like, you motherfuckers, the whole point of protests is because we want things to change. Some dude murders a kid? He should be arrested and tried for murder. It's terrible that it happened, but if he gets arrested, put in jail, and tried for murder, well... that's why we have the systems we do. A COP killed a kid and drat near nothing happened to him. That's something people protest about because they want it to change. Is it just being willfully dense? I don't get it.
