They make villains who’s goals make total sense and are something to root for, so to balance that they make the villains kill innocents just to make sure the audience doesn’t accidentally side with them.

Palestinians have to be a “perfect victim” to be even the slightest bit sympathetic, and even then it’s not a guarantee.

Same guy:

Wow. Unfunny and racist.

I’ve said something similar in front of my mom and she yelled at me, convinced the government will assassinate/arrest me.

Why wouldn’t the Russians be prepared? Look at where they live, do they not think Russian soldiers are prepared for fucking winter?

I don’t understand how some people in the replies of the tweet believe this isn’t rape.

Seeing this on the news was so hard to watch. I’ve been so angry about all of this and I go back and forth between being optimistic about the future to outright depression…

I always wonder what they mean by “political issue” because, in my opinion, inviting a President from another country to drum up support for war and celebrating a Nazi veteran in the House of Commons seems pretty damn political to me.

Out of every country on this planet, GERMANY?! They should’ve just sat there and ate their food…

I audibly laughed at how bad that backfired.

Japan did a really good job when it comes to covering up their war crimes and general atrocities. Their PR team is top notch.

Liberals are on the defensive and Conservatives are using this blunder to their advantage even though they were clapping too.

That’s what’s also confusing me. Like, we’ve already gone through winter of this war so what makes this year different? The Russians survived then and will do the same now so I don’t know what they’re blabbing about.

Okay, I can’t tell if the third panel is edited but if it’s not then it makes it way funnier considering the guy who makes these comics is a centrist.

I remember seeing people make posts about the lack of rainbow capitalism.

Rainbow capitalism is bad and has been critiqued (at least in my circles) every year pride month comes around, but the fact that major companies are backing out of it this year due to the increased controversies (mainly over trans rights) seems to be a predictor of what’s to come. Their words not mine.

I think it’s an interesting perspective and definitely has weight to it. Companies felt comfortable to commercialize pride since it was technically more favourable but now because of rising anti-LGBTQ (again, mostly targeted at trans people but reflects previous homophobic vitriol) sentiment and legislation they’re pulling back on “support.” Hopefully this will start to show people that these companies never had their best interest in mind and it’s always been about profit. Nothing more.

The delivery of this is so fucking embarrassing, it’s like how brand tweets try so hard to be relatable, and in this context it’s sickening.

Gen Z here and I’d love a housing crash here in Canada. Sorry not sorry but I don’t see housing as some investment, I see it as a home to live in and have a life.
