This person thinks McDonalds receives a hundred pounds of frozen chicken nuggets per day and cooks them, 10-30 at a time, in warming boxes for 40 minutes like an oven...instead of frying them for 3 minutes. You can literally see the fryers at McDonalds. 
The Era poster is probably one of those lazy fucks that Doordashes McDonald's (and then complains that food is too expensive).

FWIW, the Liebeck decision the people are comparing this one to was bullshit (to be clear, the lawsuit was absolutely not frivolous, but the decision was total garbage.)

over halfway into 2023 and there still isn't a cogent explanation of they/them that isn't rooted in sexist stereotypes.

I love how they bring up past bannings (which can be problematic to begin with) that are utterly irrelevant to the topic and issues at hand to justify a perm.
“See, not only did he not show appropriate sympathy for a McDonalds victim here, but we had to ban them severely before! Don’t question if it was a bad decision, he was clearly a bad actor!”

Wow the Marvels commercial had them quipping about the crazy situation they found themselves in. Fun!
Do they not realise how ridiculous they look hyping up 4k 60fps?

Is gen-z okay?
Kamala is a teen and looks like a mom to them?
actress is 20 and does indeed have mom-like features
Desantis sucks but:
Quote: I feel like DeSantis was that guy who had nothing but dbag friends growing up who always wanted to be edgy. Mocked the disabled people, yelled the N word out the window of cars when driving past black folk or tanned white people.
Then during his thigh food and navy days he decided he was super fucking important and decided to be a politician but struggled until, to his surprise, Trump arrived and the Republican Party became a party made up of people like him.
He’s the worst human being who was able to rise to power on the backs of deranged and terrible human beings.
He’s the kid in the back of the class doing mock Asian accents and now is running for president.

Kind of cartoonish how they see people in the lens of highschool/college drama.
Is a forum paranoid enough to ban people for little offenses but they seriously think that people are this transparent ghoulish IRL (dunno if it is actually true for Desantis, being fair, just saying how they sound).

They truly live in a different reality. At best you can claim that Cameron isn't sensitive enough (then again, it's blue aliens, not a real tribe) and that it could be read as a white savior story, but holy fuck you have to be an idiot to declare it "anti-indigenous"
