if GW want to advance the 40k setting then just do the one good thing from End Times and consolidate factions. Just say gently caress it, the Eldar gods return and say everyone has to work together now, and you can field mixed eldar/dark eldar armies as one unified faction.

Retire the entire faction from the setting, kill off some special characters, roll them into the Eldar proper rather than just adding another eldar faction

When I was a kid, there were these series of educational cartoon telling the story of mankind and science and stuff. I'm sure if I rewatched them now I'd notice all kind of innacuracies and bias and poo poo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoC-sV1KmXA Like, here's this series on explorers that totally skips ove rhow much of a genocidal slaver Columbus was: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WyDZUe_12ZM

Actually, let's go further. One of the most nostalgic cartoons among my generation in Quebec, fondly remembered, is Les Mystérieuses CItés d'Or, the story of a kid trying to find the secret Cities of Gold in the New World during the time of conquest, complete with Francisco Pizarro as a supporting character. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ki99YBVKyw It's surprisingly good, and I remember they often had small videos about South American culture and history after episodes.

zeal posted:rowling has said in interviews that one guy with a shotgun could probably end most of the wizard battles in her books I remember thinking that the British government could have put an end to Voldemort's little coup very quickly. But I'm sure that there's a good reason why nobody even considers asking. Wizards sure got a sweet deal, they stay hidden and undisturbed [even when their stupid feuds threaten the rest of the world apparently] and they have to give nothing in exchange. I can only assume the government allows it out of post-colonial liberal guilt [disclaimer: have only watched the movies, about half of them, out of sequence]

The wizarding government holds a heavy boot on the necks of all non-human yet intelligent beings. It’s directly stated that the wizard cop organization that Harry Potter eventually joins was responsible for genociding most of the giants. You could write an edgelord fanfic about a Wizard cop hired to assassinate goblins to leverage control of their gold backed banking system and that might as well be semi canon. And above all this the system of power is passed off with, “Well it’s not perfect...”. Heck Hermione even only becomes an incremental liberal reformer who doesn’t even get to solve the whole house elf slavery deal, which is apparently the extent of Rowling’s imagination in a universe she controls.

I've never read Harry Potter and I've only seen the first movie, but the more I hear about it the more I'm convinced that it's Dan Brown levels of loving stupid.

I don't remember that in the movies, it might have been cut and I can think of several reasons why. All I remember is that creepy house-elf (JFC it's not even subtle) who hit himself every time he made a mistake

So what Disney animated feature do the conservatives hate the most The Hunchback of Nortre Dame has the villain Frollo (the late, great Tony Jay) as a racist authoritarian who wants to hide his jungle fever by murdering gypsies and only knows religion as a exercise in hypocrisy Wall E seems to imply the market doesn't literally solve all problems Mulan caused literally all the gender chaos we see today Nebakenezzer has issued a correction as of 15:23 on Feb 23, 2018 |

From the original "Tailhook" scandal involving scores of high ranking navy fighter pilots who molested subordinate women to the latest travesty at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, the hard truth of our experiment with gender integration is that is has been an almost complete disaster for the military and for many of the individual women involved. When Indiana Congressman Steve Buyer was appointed to investigate the Aberdeen mess, he shocked the public with the revelation that young, nubile, 18 year old men and women were actually being HOUSED together during basic training. Whatever bone head came up with this idea should be run out of this man's Army before sundown. Housing, in close quarters, young men and women (in some cases married to non-military personnel) at the height of their physical and sexual potential is the height of stupidity.
