There's also a Psycho-Pass film, make sure to watch that too, that takes place after season 2. Season 2 is indeed just 11 episodes.

It really has. It's fantastic.

Except it's not. Again, coding a person and coding a group of people are entirely different things. They may not be "alt right", but the tweet is still stupid either way. This. This. I am asking honestly: how is it homophobic? I said this in the example with the guy who wouldn't make a wedding cake for a gay couple and shaming Sarah Huckabee Sanders by asking her to leave the restaurant. I know we disagreed there too, but there is a HUGE difference between, as I said, coding a person and coding a group of people. Any comedian will tell you that. They aren't shaming or making fun of gay people there, they are making fun of alphas vs. betas and being cucked. It's about power, not homophobia (the intent and context, not how the joke originated, which is irrelevant here). I'm asking honestly because I want to understand: do you really not see a difference between insulting an individual using harsh language that doesn't implicitly insult the group the "insult came from" as may be perceived here? Legally, there are clear differences (look at libel and slander laws). Comedically, there are clear differences. In this thread, some people get the difference. Are you saying one does not exist or you just don't think there's one? Because that's three examples now where you insist that it's an all or nothing proposition. Either the comments are always homophobic regardless of intent, context, and specificity of person it is being aimed at, or they are never homophobic, whether it's the alt right or progressive left. I think things are a lot more nuanced than that. Also, there's a huge difference between the progressive left being "accidentally" homophobic when putting a target on Trump's back specifically (especially when the criticism is warranted with Trump and Putin) and when the alt right intentionally uses homophobia to create hate and fear and incite violence against the LGBTQIA+ community. Surely you see that difference, at least?

When something is normal to you someone like us demanding better standards feels weird, almost wrong to them. The amount of people that laugh in my face at the idea we can do Medicare for All and College for All is a lot. It's like they're so used to those two systems being shitty that the idea that it could change for a lot better earns derision. Once I explain my ideas to them slowly and carefully it's like they wake up and realize just how bad it truly is in America vs. what they think America is. Same here with the Filipinos.

McCabe is Comey!!

SPACE FORCE.

Why doesn't he put some fucking sanctions on Russia, AT LEAST, while he's at it? I mean GODDAMN.

He's officially praised, at least, Kim Jong Un, Vladimir Putin, Rodrigo Duterte, and now Recep Erdogan. It's fucking ridiculous.

That's the dumbest tweet the alt right has made yet. How can they STILL not tell the different between coding a group of people and coding a specific person? Trump taking it up the ass from Putin is funny not because it makes fun of gay men but because it makes fun of Trump - especially since he sees himself as such a heterosexual alpha male. They just don't have the intelligence to understand the difference.

Lock him up! Lock him up! Or something.

As much as I love M:I II, it's barely a real movie. M:I is very easily the better film. They are so different as to be barely comparable though.

That would be my preference as well, but I'll take whatever I can get in this post-Citizens United, pro-Citizens United world.

*Assuming a rational actor is at the helm should be at the end of almost every post we all make.

I think we're in agreement. I like Google, and I'm a huge proponent of open source and having options. What I don't like is the bullying and exclusivity arrangements part is all. You seem to agree there. If the Commissions lack of broadness or inability to penalize all offending companies I would agree with you but to say not going after Google because the Commission didn't go after others, that I'm not so sure about. (if that's what you're saying).

Is your issue that they are going after only Google or that they are doing it at all? Because I'm all for going after all of them if possible. I have no problem with pre-loads, but bullying it into existence is not something I'm a fan of, which is how this read to me. And anything that limits monopolies and trusts, even arguably benign blocks such as this one (is it really bad they pre-load their stuff? no) because they are already running loose and drunk on power.

It's dumb for Google to do it anyway - are they really worried people won't immediately download their apps first anyway? C'mon now. This is a good thing by the Commission.

If you do check it out again let us know what you think! And yeah, I actually follow him on Twitter too. Smart, cool guy.

Trump's worldview: being a treasonous advocate for the Russian Federation OR nuclear war. No middle ground there eh? And why so tough on our allies then compared to Russia? Surely it's important to get along with them too.

I just suggested it because you seemed to say you don't remember them well. I'm sure you'd still think they were only decent.

Hahaha yeah, that's the one with Jake Gyllenhaal. Jones' direction really elevates a pretty mundane screenplay into a really good (but not great) movie. Moon is better but Source Code is good. Maybe both are due for a rewatch for you?

I really enjoyed the new King Arthur movie, but a lot of that was thanks in large part to veteran auteur director Guy Ritchie. I hope this is good, but I don't think it will be as it has two completely unknown and untested writers writing it (not a writing duo either, separate from each other) and a TV director making his very first feature film. We'll see I guess.

This was my biggest issue with season 2 as well, though I did enjoy the season overall (it's been so long I don't remember a good bit of season 2 lol).

Warcraft was pretty average/bad (I haven't seen Mute) but Moon and Source Code remain fantastic. I do now question Duncan Jones' skill, however.
