  1. por que no los dos?
  2. That's antifa pretending to be Trump. Conspiracy theories did proliferate (obviously not with the reach they do today) and nutjobs were networking long before either the wide adoption of the internet or it's initial development. For instance The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, one of the most enduring tracts influencing antisemitic conspiracys, was fabricated (for any dip****s lurking who may believe it to be authentic) and published in 1903 by a Russian nationalist group and made it to the US around 15 years later when one edition was edited to replace "jews" with "bolshevik" and another was put out by Henry Ford to discuss "the dangers of the international jew".
  3. I saw like a few minutes of Queen's Gambit so I can't judge it, but if Taylor-Joy brought even a quarter of what she did to the VVitch then it'd probably be worth watching. First tho I'm going to dive into Sweet Home and see how K-horror works in a tv show.
  4. Not to mention that twitter account is not Amazon, it's a union for Amazon workers.
  5. It's funny that apps like GrubHub and Uber Eats basically wrote their own law and got it passed in California last year but social media applying their TOS to an elected official from the US is what has some folks riled up. Is there a German word for this?
  6. https://www.politico.com/news/2021/01/07/capitol-hill-riots-doj-456178 I guess the old line "Some of those that work forces are the same that burn crosses" is still true.
  7. Hoping I don't get shot by a dip**** larping as a viking tbh. It was a coup attempt, even if it was also incredibly stupid and silly. Think of it like a farcical reenactment of the Beer Hall Putsch. Also like the Beer Hall Putsch a lot of the higher ups (Trump, Republican politicians, Proud Boys leaders, etc.) will come out with the equivalent of a slap on the wrist and be back on their bull****.
  8. I turned 29 today, but after this last year I feel 49.
  9. Say what you will about the MAGA marauders, but it really takes dedication to keep up the anti-mask stance to the point of publicly broadcasting their identity as they commit crimes that could land them in prison for decades.
  10. I think Bubba Ho-Tep is probably the best Bruce Campbell movie.
  11. This brings up a good comparison. When "antifa" vandalized the CNN sign in Atlanta the National Guard got called in. The MAGAs are storming the capital armed and the DOD declined a request to send in the National Guard.*see edit The gaps in relation to power (you can see prominent politicians with Proud Boys and 3%ers) and the response from authority should provide a stark comparison between antifa and MAGA. EDIT: MSNBC got it wrong, National Guard is being deployed to DC.
  12. It only gets used on leftists and Black people.
  13. Half of them are part of the MAGA legions so they're shortstaffed.
  14. I had Michael Savage in mind, but yeah they've all been going down the rabbit hole for quite a while. You can definitely trace parts of it back to the Southern Strategy as well, which predates most (if not all) of the big organs of right-wing media. Yeah, it's the result of decades of dog whistles to drum up votes only to be surprised that the dogs* are in charge. Republicans have long benefitted from such rhetoric/policy/entertainment pushing votes to them, if not outright running them due to the incestuous nature of media hacks and political players, and didn't try to divorce themselves too much so they could keep a reliable group of voters. It's hard to take cries of some Republicans and republican-adjacent folks seriously about the ascendancy of alt-right ideology in the Republican party when they were comfortable enough to incubate it because it benefitted them. *Apologies to dogs by comparing them to the new/alt-right
  15. Maybe I'm just too young at an age barely under 30, but this sounds just like the Republican party I knew growing up post 9/11. My dad listens to the talk radio and they've been going on about Soros funding various schemes to cuck the white manundermine 'merica for at least 14 years now. What some of yall can't recognize is pretty much all I've ever known.
  16. Whelp I just dodged a bullet.
  17. https://thehill.com/homenews/house/532407-gohmert-talks-of-violence-in-streets-after-his-lawsuit-is-dismissed I look forward to those who were pearl clutching about antifa and BLM to condemn their friend Louie.
  18. Cobra Kai season 3. It felt like maybe half a season stretched out, in some ways it feels like a reset to make it into good karate dojos vs bad karate dojos instead of Danny and Johnny being a couple of dudes who can't let high school feuds go. Overall it felt less enjoyable than previous seasons in all respects and I was frequently bored with the episodes when they were retreading stuff they had done over the last couple of seasons. I'll probably watch season 4, but it's going to the backburner. Chilling Adventures of Sabrina - season 4 (or season 2 part 2, it's kinda confusing) episodes 1-3. This continues to feel like a cw show where the producers said "cuss it", which is a good thing because it cuts down on a lot of the worst aspects and beefs up some of the better ones. I guess it's a shame they it cancelled, but hopefully they had enough forewarning to tie it all together unlike Marco Polo. It's also refreshing to see eldritch terrors not just be Cthulhu knockoffs so far, even the tentacled one is different than some ugly demigod who took a long nap.
  19. I watched Dreamland (the one with Henry Rollins and Juliet Lewis, there are two movies titled Dreamland from 2019) and I have to say it's one of the weirder things I've seen over the last few years. I'd recommend it. I also watched The Wolf of Snow Hollow which is a decent enough horror movie to watch while you're drinking. That's at least half of Bruce Willis movies.
  20. I guess 2020 had one last middle finger. MF Doom dying on Halloween but us only finding out on New Years Eve is probably the most MF Doom thing though.
  21. I finished Alice in Borderland. There's some silliness and some of the action is corny looking, but over all it's an enjoyable show that I'd recommend. And unlike some show called Discovery which I've never watched, you do actually end up caring about the characters enough where emotional moments work. It will make you dislike the first series? I only remember bits of FMA but after watching Brotherhood I couldn't keep interested.
  22. Something we've all done.
  23. Well if you listen to that lady who the WSJ strawmanned, SS (unless that means something completely different from Social Studies) is the perfect opportunity to make kids read such things as the books in question. Maybe you'd even get a write up for "de-cancelling" the classics or be accused of poisoning young children's minds, depending on how you talk about them in class.
  24. Too bad, you should have made better life choices when you were conceived.
  25. Either way it's a far cry from whatever the wsj guy was mad about.
