    King is one of those people who has to always chime in to say that they are very virtous and always on right side of history.

    He just is a great distillation of burger liberal. He would assure to vote obama for a third time.

          Diego Luna can be the Star Wars man now.

          spoiler

            Luna's cool as far as I know? But Boyega went to BLM protests in person so I'm very positive on him as well.

              I loved Boyega in Attack the Block, and was super pissed when he was under written in the sequel movies lol.

              Pedro Pascal is barely a Glup Shitto at this point, but he's probably at the top for how cool you can be as a big celebrity.

            I've said it before and I'll say it again 100 times until people here finally get it, its very easy to be fooled based on the kind of morality we are taught in schools that Ukraine are the good guys in this war. "The country being invaded are the bad guys" is incredibly counter intuitive. It took me awhile to really wrap my head around it tbh.

            And people see those symbols you mention as just being symbols of Ukraine, not naziism. People dont get these things man. Its enormously easy to fall into the wrong side on the Ukraine war. I still struggle with self doubt that I'm on the right side of the issue because frankly, it doesnt make intuitive sense. (and dont try to lecture me here lol, I know the talking points and agree with them, I'm trying to explain why we're always fighting against the grain on this point. It just doesnt make sense to people).

                Very emblematic of the problems with this forum that you think that being empathetic to the ways people come to think certain ways even if you state outright that you 100% disagree with them actually means you do agree with them and are a Nazi too. Fuck off quite frankly. I was very specific in what I said there was no room for misinterpretation you're just insistently an asshole with no interest in understanding things outside of you.

      She literally had to change her response the next time it happened because she (probably some advisor) realized it was terrible but the hive literally wants us to remember it because they think it ruled lmao

        anywhere I can read more, I hadn't heard she got interrupted by protestors again and am wondering what her changed response was

            we hear you, we see you, we support a ceasefire (and by that we mean the IOF goes right back into Gaza once the settler prisoners are freed or never leaves the Philadelphi Corridor at all). yeah this is much better in the sense that it is boring as shit and harder to mock

              Its not genuinly better in making me support or want to vote for her because i see through it like you do, but it is genuinly better at political messaging. Especially combined with the whole "meeting with Uncommited" thing they did.

              The fact that they changed courses her is, to me, another sign of what I've been saying, that it looks like they genuinly want to win. "I'm speaking" was the first like "oh theres the losers I know" since Biden stepped down. And now they're backing down from it. Of course unhigned morons like King aren't lol, but the campaign is!

      The libs love that line, because it is a polite way of saying "Shut up because I don't have a response to you that doesn't make me look like the bad guy."

      The first time she said it to Mike Pence it was a pretty good line. When she said it at Detroit airport it was not good (and the cheer in response was even worse), but I'll at least say I'm not convinced she knew what the protesters were saying.

      If the t-shirt and picture predate the Detroit rally, I think it's completely reasonable to say that yes, at the time "I'm speaking" was a pretty good line.

    It's funny because the original version of that image represented a (momentary) belief that America would be able to turn away from nearly a decade of warmongering and bloodshed in the Middle East and now it has been turned into "fuck you we'll genocide whomever we want"

    If "I'm speaking" is supposed to be a girlboss thing idk it seems kind of ironically weak. Makes me think of the episode of kitchen nightmares i watched recently where the owner kept going "let me finish" over and over again

    Like if you're speaking and people give a shit, they already know, and otherwise you're just vocalizing that you're being ignored

      He didn’t need writing lessons back when the cocaine/ect was in control; that era kinda slapped but he’s too brain fried to write anything good now
