  1. Politicians troll the earth and set it up so that people cannot protest without getting harassed, cannot vote easily, cannot cross the border and legally request asylum without being separated from their kids and getting locked in cages, etc. But god forbid someone makes Mitch McConnell’s coq au vin mildly unpleasant. 

     

    Also lol at fat sack dancing the only jig he knows, the “democrats would do it too lambada.”

  2. My pie in the sky list?

     

    • Abolish handgun and semi-automatic rifle sales forever outside of the military and law enforcement. Incentivize the destruction of those weapons for current, private owners. Create a federal registry for gun ownership. Non-compliance with the federal registry results upon the permanent confiscation of all firearms upon discovery along with the permanent loss of permission to own or operate a firearm
    • Automatic and compulsory voter registration when someone turns 18. Declare national election days as federal holidays
    • Some kind of UBI
    • Abortions are legal and accessible
    • Marijuana is legalized
    • Elimination of all for-profit prisons
    • I’d need economists and actuaries to crunch the numbers, but I’d have an incredibly high tax rate over $X million dollars of income
    • Make the possession of small amounts of most drugs misdemeanors and not felonies
    • Reimagine and enforce campaign finance laws

    Some other stuff I can’t think of offhand.

    To be fair though, no one really loved the way Anakin was portrayed either. It's bad writing all the way around for both characters. However, Anakin does have the known benefit of nearly being created by the Force where no such advantage is known for Rey.

    But being “created by the Force” is a much more crap origin than someone randomly being rad with the Force.

    This is the shit I fucking love. Despite the casino chase and the idiotic military decision making, THIS is one of the many reasons I will enjoy this movie so much.

    That’s just Star Wars, dog. Rogue One exists solely to explain why there wasn’t a flaping exhaust port cover on the Death Star. It’s a 120 minute retcon to explain a shit military decision. :p

    Adventure journalism used to be a journalist embedding himself with an explorer and staying in a jungle off the grid for months. Now it's upper class New Yorkers who leave their apartment that costs more per month than many people are paying towards their mortgage in a year to explore the wild world that is the suburbs of the Midwest and force themselves to go to a restaurant and a couple of stores, instead of ordering everything from DoorDash, to seek out noble savage mystical rednecks who will confirm their preconceived notions and are absolutely representative of the common man despite owning a car dealership because they drive a $55k pickup truck and listen to country pop.

     

    I'm a Scandinavian patriarch and my family doesn't like the worthlessness brought on by socialism and the destruction of our liberal principals brought in through open boarders by zenophobic and recalcitrant invading Muslim hoards that sit around and collect wealfare and murder citizens from prized and prominent families like Hugo van Gogh and demand Sharia law to make the murder legal. It keeps going that way with little we can do to reverse the trend without a drastic shift in some of our deeply held principals.
