    Meanwhile a couple of links down on my feed there’s an article about one of the Heritage Foundation guys claiming most political violence is committed by the left… 🙄

    The projection never ends…

        Let’s be very clear here: the Heritage Foundation aren’t brainwashed dumbasses. They’re the malicious architects of turning America into a neofeudalist Christofascist white ethnostate. Stopping them would do more for reversing America’s decline than removing Trump. He’s the symptom; they’re the cause.

          Id say its more like an ouroboros at this point the cult of personality helps mobilize the dipshit which further empowers the heritage foundation which further empowers trump. Removing two of the elements would collapse it though and removing one would severely weaken it.

          The first bit of the campaign in EA’s SW Battlefront II was great largely for NOT doing this. Stormtroopers were depicted as well trained and professional, and it was pretty great until the light side arch started to kick in.

          I’d LOVE a SW TV series that focuses on a squad of stormtroopers. Pull inspiration from shit like MASH, Saving Private To Ryan, Jarhead, etc, and you’d have a pretty good cocktail of serious/intense/a dash of humor. Humanize then - make us set their indoctrination, and even root for them against the rebel ‘terrorists’.

              Never even heard of it, but just did a search. I tried one of the other animated SW series a while ago, and didn’t make it very far.

              If this one even semi-matches the description of my last post, then fuck yeah, I’ll give it a shot!

                The main characters were introduced in season 7 of the animated Clone Wars series, and their “spinoff” has 3 seasons on Disney+.

                Its definitely top tier & worth your time.

                It is hard to get into the animated series because they start off pretty kid-oriented, but I promise you they get good and are worth sticking with.

                Bad Batch largely doesn’t have that problem because it’s mostly an extension of The Clone Wars.

    And people mocked Jack Black for canceling his tour.

        This is just so glib.

        I mean I get your point. I even back you to a degree.

        But you’re calling out a popular entertainer for not wanting to put on a show - which requires a support staff, venue, and audience - while now having to think what nut might be in the audience waiting to take a shot.

        MAYBE this shit is already stressful enough for Jack without worrying about everyone around him and how that extra stress will undermine their performances as they do this shit night after night for the entire tour.

        But no, tell him he must go on. It doesn’t cost you shit. You don’t have to live with the stress of it all.

          Yea, I get it, but this shit is exactly what gives these people power, and emboldens them to continue to do it to others, both more and bigger. It got to this point specifically because the people who can stand up to it chose not to, and so now if you so much as make a comment about these fucks in an attributable space it’s expected that they’ll make credible death threats and bomb threats, maybe even blow up a building, who knows. And it’s your fault for saying it, because I mean look at the way you were talking. Practically asking to be murdered.

          Fuck that.

            I’m not saying you’re incorrect, but it’s easy to be principled when it’s someone else in the cross-hairs.

            Victim blaming is wrong, but boisterously inviting danger is stupid.

        This is what people say when it’s not them being targetted. United States Congresspeople refused to convict Trump. Cities had to beef up security when announcements about his trials happened. This isn’t your average joe. This is a man with unlimited resources at his disposal, millions of lone wolves willing to do his bidding, including committing acts of violence, and a national megaphone to call them to action.

        But hey, you do you. I’m sure that when you become the target of the Trump Hate Machine, you can show all of us how to handle daily death threats, family members being targeted, losing your job, and maybe having your home broken into and getting hit in the head with a hammer. Or having to go into hiding. Go ahead, I’ll wait. Let me know how random citizens are supposed to handle that. I’m sure Ruby Freeman and Shea Moss would like to know too.

        In case you haven’t been paying attention lately, I’ll clue you in on something: MAGA morons have no problems using violence to get their way. And it’s very possible any attempt at retribution could include something happening at one of his shows. And if there are credible threats being made to him or his band, continuing the tour just tells his would-be assaulters where he is every day. It would be practically suicide.

      I don’t care about the cancelation of the tour, but him saying he iced all projects with Kyle does not sit right with me

      If they were friends like Jack claims, he would say something like: "I know him very well. It was a joke in poor taste, but it was only a stupid joke in the spur of the moment. " instead of distancing himself from the heat

        Jack also has a pretty active acting career that Kyle doesn’t. So it makes sense that publicly he’d want to distance himself as much as possible, at least for now.
