Just wait till Netflix's numbers come in next time. Probably worse, despite them saying their rates increased in the US.

honestly it's fucking insane that the forum that spent 2 years in total meltdown over corona and those fucking masks and called themselves "frontline staff" as if they were working in a warzone is now actually defending this 

I miss that psycho who was constantly having raging meltdowns while spying on his neighbours. Same guy who threatened to punch anyone who came near him in the park, and reported the security guard at his work because he left his desk to patrol the building.

if you don't hold an identity being targeted for fascist dehumanization and you don't live in a state implementing that targeting you don't really need to be weighing in on this at all, tbh

Worst take in the thread right here. Everyone can help somehow. Just may not be the same for everyone.

I think what hach means is if you're not one of the vulnerable to the GOPs fetish for evil in red states you shouldn't be telling people to stay.

Literally who's left tho? Like obviously they have been focusing a lot of their fire power on Trans folks and a not unreasonable amount of it against women... but it's not like they've stopped attacking anyone else. I've said before in this thread that I have basically run out of people I know who would be able to live peacefully under republican governments. I meant it then and I still mean it. These fuckers even hate nurses/doctors and teachers!

Would you like to weigh in yourself because as it stands this comment serves only to attempt to end the discussion without engaging in it.

Among the posts allegedly made by Robertson was one published on Aug. 6, three days before Biden's scheduled visit, according to the complaint. "I hear Biden is coming to Utah. Digging out my old ghillie suit and cleaning the dust off the M24 sniper rifle," the post said, according to the complaint, which referred to the post as a "willful true threat to kill or cause injury to kill President Biden."

Senior staff briefed Biden on the incident Wednesday morning, a White House official told ABC News.

I feel like I read this message dozens of times regarding Trump

though usually they add "in minecraft"

Attorney should challenge this claim on the question of how something can be a true threat before it's ever happened before. To my knowledge no attack on the President in history has been preceded by a public threat.

And frankly, the entire security state around the President, ex-Presidents, Presidents families and potential Presidents is absurd and anti-American.

He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
...
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation;

For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us;

For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States;

For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world;

For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent;

For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury;

While I was in PoliERA I discovered that they're very upset that some random no name is considering challenging the President during a NATIONAL EMERGENCY with democracy under threat:

there is definitely something wrong with “throwing your hat into the ring” for a primary challenge this cycle. is there any cogent argument for how dem primary contenders would be a help to biden’s reelection? if the answer is “no,” then you’re only being a self-serving doofus who’s helping the fascists. i don’t actually think it will matter enough to swing things, unlike these third party idiots, but the risk of softening biden’s support even a minuscule amount is still there

the only pro-primary arguments i can conceive of are 1) progressive policy conversations could push biden further left, 2) if god forbid something health-related happens to biden before the election it might help to have an alternate candidate who’s been building momentum waiting in the wings, and 3) biden’s inevitable primary win might make him look stronger if there’s a facade of competition

but none of those reasons are compelling enough for me to buy, as by definition a primary challenger implies the incumbent isn’t good enough and should be replaced

i was a real naive and idealistic sunuvugun until 2016 who would have said “primaries are a necessary vital needed to boost the health of democracy!”, but that’s an argument that has been so definitively refuted by reality these past few years that it’s only worth entertaining as a nostalgia capsule to take you back to more innocent times

There is no good reason for any Dem to be dicking around suggesting a primary challenge of Biden.

I don't care how many times "you've spoke to him." That means jackshit compared to his voting record. I don't know why I'm supposed to care that you talked to some loser who keeps threatening to primary Biden from the right. Are you one of the Dems who told him to primary Biden, that he keeps claiming exist?

Fuck around and find out, lmao

It eventually culminated in this:

I look at election data in my spare time. I know what I'm talking about.

Era Member: "who asked for this"

Post-Endgame MCU discussion has had a lot of this, and it's been very frustrating...

It's really not subtle anymore. The viciousness towards Blue Beetle is also fucking shit too.

We as a community need to do better when it comes to these sort of things. I hate the fact that we're seeing so many people downplay the importance of representation. I understand not being excited for the show due to her appearance in Hawkeye not sticking the landing or being particularly strong because she was overshadowed by other elements of Hawkeye like Kate Bishop, Yelena, Clint, Kingpin etc but still. These characters, big or small, matter to a ton of people one way or another. This whole "who asked for this?" meme or "joke" needs to come to an end on Era or at least needs to be meet with some sort of action because it's such a low effort post that downplays such a wide community of folks who will clearly be positively impacted by the show's creation when it's out simply because of them seeing themselves in Echo and her supporting cast of characters. The same, as Fj0823 stated, applies to Blue Beetle as well. This whole concept that superhero shows or movies are "meaningless" or "pointless" has rapidly looked more and more like folks attempting to downplay representation than ever before simply because you only see those type of comments in relation to shows or movies that happen to be representing communities of folks for the first time ever in such a big way. It's really, and I mean really, corny and tiring.

Such an “important” issue that he had to post in the constructive thread too.

This could seem dramatic but I think it's time that someone brought up a new trait within Era's superhero community that continues to grow as new shows or movies get announced, and that's folks downplaying the importance of representation. I don't want to retype what I just posted in the recent thread about ECHO so I'll copy and paste it and add onto it after:

I have no idea what the changes to this topic/ongoing problem can be but I think it's important to figure it out before it becomes too embedded in the community. I understand saying "who asked for this?" to a lot of things, like Sony Pictures Spider-Man Movies for example (lol). However, it's hard to notice people being purposely negative or mean towards these films or shows that are bringing a massive amount of representation for communities that have yet to be represented in such a big genre of entertainment. It's hard to not look at the past Blue Beetle threads and see people mock the trailer or downplay how budget the movie looks allowing them to completely write it off without even thinking of acknowledging the fact that it's a big deal that Blue Beetle is bringing Latino representation in the superhero genre for the first time in live action. It's hard to not side-eye folks for doing the same thing with Marvel's ECHO as well. And some have pointed out, like [USER=2220]Dalek[/USER] in the Echo thread, it's almost always said in a thread about a superhero project not starring a white man. Again, I don't want to be dramatic when talking about this but I feel like it's time to bring this dialogue up and figure out how the community can be better going forward in regards to this topic.

I've seen Black and brown bodies in movies before. No, really, true story. And on TV too. Popular big budget stuff and all! Two whole comic book franchise trilogies staring Black men. Honestly. One of them featuring an ACAB Black man. Even a Chinese Hawaiian man is going to star in a sequel to his previous masterpiece comic film. It's not comic book related but I really liked this long running franchise starring a Latinx man and a Black man. 

It's almost like this reflexive defense of large corporate products has its roots in something other a dubious unsupported and frankly insulting towards minorities rationale that on behalf of them, without their consent, ties millions of people's self-worth to blind and bland consumerism that the person making the accusation against critics has overly devoted themselves to in a reactionary manner against what they falsely perceived to be social-cultural norms. And that all the comments, that have appeared across threads since time immemorial, are in fact the work of sinister racist forces that dominate a local "video game" forum to ensure the continued strength of the capitalist, colonialist and white supremacist conspiracy.

But I'm sure it's really just honest joy at finally seeing Black people in movies after Disney's Marvel's Black Panther BROKE NEW GROUND thanks to the high minded corporate benevolence of white cishet male Kevin Feige at the helm of his multi-billion dollar empire.

no no, it says in such a big way

all of those other films only represented them in small ways, under the thumb of white writers treating the movies as minstrel shows, "dance for me wesley snipes"

Interesting how this didn't come up when the community, including staff members, were attacking the first known blockbuster superhero film to star a non-binary actor. And doing it in the middle of a genocide where people were also literally denying that Gwen was a trans woman despite that being a simple single request for dignity from the trans community.

I'm not surprised that the trans community of ResetERA.com is practically on its knees and begging from respite when the "allies" shove them aside to stand up for cis actors in other superhero films while saying nothing about the mass pogroms targeted at their human rights towards superhero film and TV representation.
