When will one of the white lib "allies" on ResetERA.com be this brave and fight for marginalized people?  

Kluwe concluded his remarks by announcing that he would “engage in the time-honored American tradition of peaceful civil disobedience” and approaching the dais. Kluwe says now that he "made very clear my intentions" and did not resist arrest as he "put my hands behind my back." When police detained him, he recalls warning "I'm gonna go limp" and telling them "you're gonna carry me" when asked if he would walk out.

"I figured there was a very good chance of me getting arrested because our city council is a bunch of fascists," Kluwe says.

Kluwe has been charged with a misdemeanor for disrupting a public assembly, though he says that he has "no idea if it involves a fine or jail time because there's nothing on the citation." His court date has been set for April, and he is in contact with legal representation as well as the American Civil Liberties Union.

The former athlete notes that "charging me with an actual crime is generally not what happens in those situations," as police usually "will remove the person from the council chambers and then either give them a warning or just send them on the way." He feels that the charges could be a way to make "an example" out of him.

"I understand why they had to remove me because it is against the rules to approach the dais. I knew that was something that would disrupt city council proceedings," Kluwe says. "But actually charging me with a crime? Doesn't the city have anything better to do?"

Just like before, Kluwe says the charges will not deter him from using his platform for advocacy. He believes that more "people like me" — not only straight white men, but professional athletes of all backgrounds — need to speak out for marginalized communities, as "we're the ones with the privilege."

Kluwe specifically wants Democratic lawmakers across the country to take a page from his book and put their bodies on the line, telling them to "get arrested when you don't let the Doge goons into the treasury" or "get arrested because you start yelling on the Senate floor that these confirmations are a sham and none of these people are qualified."

"I've frankly been supremely disappointed in our elected Democratic officials because this is the party of John Lewis. This is the party of 'cause good trouble,'" Kluwe says. "And if the civil rights movement taught us anything, it's that when shit gets bad, you need to hit the streets, you need to engage in civil disobedience. You need to show people that this is important enough that you're willing to take the consequences of deliberately breaking the law, because you know it's important. Our current officials just aren't doing that."

While Kluwe says it appears as if "all [Democrats] care about is their next fundraiser," he emphasizes that "what the Republicans are doing is absolutely cowardly and treasonous." As supposedly liberal lawmakers debate abandoning the trans community, and major companies abandon progressive causes such as diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, Kluwe believes it's up to the people to protect each other from the "abject moral failure of a late-stage capitalist society."

"It falls upon us to be putting our bodies on the line to help protect those people who are vulnerable," Kluwe says. "I know there are a lot of members of the LGBTQ community that want to protest, but it is not safe for them. If that means that I'm the one on the dais, if I'm the one getting arrested, if that's what it takes, well, then I'm willing to do that."

Trans people have a tough fight, and  yes, it can be easy to say that it's just dudes in drag or whatever, but to denigrate their fight to nothing less than other civils rights is just spitting in their faces.

it's 100% self-imposed, you don't HAVE TO act on what you think you're feeling and generally ruin your own life as a result

it's antisocial behavior like any other, if I felt strongly that I needed to identify as a person who screams angrily at everyone I meet, and I indulge that desire, I'm going to face social consequences for that decision

you can't browbeat people into suddenly accepting and accommodating clearly antisocial behavior

why are so many of them sexual predators? is that part of the tough fight, they have to work hard to suppress those urges?

lawmakers? No. Protestors? Yes. Lawmakers will only get a slap on the wrist and a photo op. They mean nothing. The actual population having a disruptive protest is another thing. Didn't any of them watch A Bugs Life?

Trans people have a tough fight, and  yes, it can be easy to say that it's just dudes in drag or whatever, but to denigrate their fight to nothing less than other civils rights is just spitting in their faces. 

It would help if you, and everyone else who says their civil rights are being denied, actually articulated what rights they are being denied.

Please, if you outline that, I might find it easier to agree. Until then, I can see no rights that I have that they are being denied.

The most basic civil rights are summarised in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Article 1 All human beings are born free and equal.

Article 2 Everyone is equal regardless of race, colour, sex, language, religion, politics, or where they were born.

Article 3 Everyone has the right to life (and to live in freedom and safety).

Article 4 Everyone has the right to be free from slavery.

Article 5 Everyone has the right to be free from torture.

Article 6 Everyone has the right to be recongnised before the law.

Article 7 We are all are equal before the law.

Article 8 Everyone has the right to seek justice if their rights are violated.

Article 9 Everyone has the right to freedom from arbitrary arrest, detention or exile.

Article 10 Everyone has the right to a fair trial.

Article 11 Everyone has the right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty.

Article 12 Everyone has the right to privacy and freedom from attacks on their reputation.

Article 13 Everyone has the right to freedom of movement and to be free to leave and return to their own country.

Article 14 Everyone has the right to seek asylum from persecution.

Article 15 Everyone has the right to a nationality.

Article 16 Everyone has the right to marry and to have a family.

Article 17 Everyone has the right to own property.

Article 18 Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion.

Article 19 Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression.

Article 20 Everyone has the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association.

Article 21 Everyone has the right to take part in government and to have equal access to public service.

Article 22 Everyone has the right to social security.

Article 23 Everyone has the right to work, to equal pay, to protection against unemployment and the right to form and join trade unions.

Article 24 Everyone has the right to rest and leisure.

Article 25 Everyone has the right to a decent standard of living, including food, clothing, housing, medical care and social services.

Article 26 Everyone has the right to education.

Article 27 Everyone has the right to participate in and enjoy culture, art and science.

Article 28 Everyone has the right to a social and international order where the rights in this Declaration can be fully realized.

Article 29 We have a duty to other people and we should protect their rights and freedoms.

Article 30 Nobody can take away these rights and freedoms from us.

I can identify a couple of these universal rights that the trans community want to restrict for others, which I have highlighted for your convenience.

Everything else they are complaining about is something they are looking to force on others and to gain special treatment because of their own self-imposed status.

Jeff redeemed.

Saw a headline about the cinemascore. My understanding is it polls ordinary audiences after showings ti gauge mass appeal. Anyway, it’s the lowest for a marvel (or dc) movie at B-. Only above stuff like Morbius and Madame Web.
On the other end, Alita Battle Angel is an A-. The choice is clear for Disney. Cancel Marvel 36 and use it to make Alita movies.

Marvel shit these days is going to be very front loaded. Anyone who wants to see it in the cinema will see it first week. After that, it'll take a massive dive. It's the equivalent of Ubisoft AAA PlayStation slop.

Hilariously, their reviewer gave it 4/10.

You should read the review for all the hits, but this quote sums things up well in a post-Endgame MCU.

I wanted to love Captain America: Brave New World, but I was barely entertained by it.

CAPTAIN AMERICA: BRAVE NEW WORLD Holds Up (Slightly) Better Than Expected With A -68% Second Weekend Drop

By JoshWilding - Feb 23, 2025 06:02 AM EST
Captain America: Brave New World had the odds stacked against it this weekend. The movie's reviews have not been great and a B- CinemaScore (the lowest for any MCU movie) suggested it wouldn't have positive word of mouth on its side.

However, Deadline brings some good news today as The Falcon and The Winter Soldier follow-up is now on course for a $28.1 million second weekend. That's a drop of -68% from its Presidents' Day weekend debut and a big improvement over Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania  (-70%) and The Marvels (-78%).

Jesus,   !

What a tremendous movie! Wilson SHINES as Captain America. I think MCU haters just took another L. This is the movie-event of the year, probably.

It's not perfect, though. One thing that I would've done differently is:

-Actually doing something with the Serpent Society. And Ruth as a former Black Widow was pretty pointless because it added nothing. I would've replaced Ruth with Ophelia Sarkissian, and don't make her a card-carrying villain from the start but instead make her pretend to be an ally, eventually reveal that she has her own agenda and wanted to take over the Serpent Society and the adamantium for her own purposes in rebuilding HYDRA as a terrorist organisation.

The plot lacked some intrigue. I wanted more backstabbing and twists, something to keep our main characters on their toes!

That's the pull quote for the ads....

Having a desperate old man clinging on beyond his time and presidential hubris almost leading to war with an ally made this feel unexpectedly topical

These clowns reveal how sheltered and naive they are every time they open their mouths. 

"desperate old man clinging on beyond his time and presidential hubris almost leading to war with an ally"

Yep, the only time those themes are relevant is right now.   Same old Era. That's why children's shows are still relevant to them. They are still learning from Bluey and comic book movies. How can one have a discussion with someone who still requires children's materials to tell them what to think and how to behave as an adult?

[Cauliflower Of Love]

You of all people are gonna down the ACAB route benjiman?

It's not just about names and pronouns. It's about identity. Do you remember how easy it was to get your driver's license? They dont.

Trans people have a tough fight, and  yes, it can be easy to say that it's just dudes in drag or whatever, but to denigrate their fight to nothing less than other civils rights is just spitting in their faces. 

Women are not unique in social class, neither are latinos, or gay men, or blacks, or latinos, they are all being put beneath as a class.

Yeah, I'm going to denigrate a movement who desire to imprison or kill people who don't convert to their religion all while demanding others labor to pay for their rituals. And for the most part also demands everyone labor so they can live without having to.

It being about identity is the entire fucking problem. They are demanding everyone else comply with something unfalsifiable that's also misogynistic. Which of those other groups demands that? Which of those groups demands that everything, including science and our language, complies with their personal individual beliefs? Which of those other groups demands we lie constantly not just to them but to everyone else?

They're demanding society be dishonest for misogynist reasons and that's bullshit. I don't care what individuals do but the idea that they should receive social privileges and state power just because they proclaim a belief is not just bullshit it's dangerous to liberalism.

It's not a religion first of all. 

The rest of your argument falls apart after that.  They basic complacency of giving people a right to be respected as who they are is not a battle and should never be. 

Which of those other groups insists on manipulating children and permanently harming them to make themselves feel better about their choices? Which of those groups target the other of those groups as their primary victims?

You are so out of bounds. Harms. Victims.

You don't care what individuals do apparently, everyone should receive social privileges. 

You're not a socialist, you're an authoritarian.

[benji]

Great work, JeffOfLove, really convinced me otherwise by simply asserting the contrary.

And yeah, no duh, I'm not a socialist, because I'm not an authoritarian. That's the entire reason I'm opposed to this misogynistic religious movement that demands the conversion of everyone.
