Why is Dave Chappelle name dropped in the thread for that woman’s suicide? Feels like a very nonchalant way to link him to it after they tried saying his standup was transphobic.

You know why.

MCU stans are the fucking worst  :yuck

They seem incapable of understanding the difference between blockbusters 20+ years ago and the factory that is Disney that's gonna keep pumping out 2-3 shitty cape movies yearly for the foreseeable future.

Some of these movies are entertaining for sure, but to compare them to classics like Terminator 2?  :trigger

The only reason people have an emotional response (lol) to watching something like Endgame is because they've been following these characters for 20 movies. This is the reason these movies will never be classics; they can't stand on their own, they are part of this bigger thing. It's more like a TV series than anything.

Imagine watching Endgame without having watched any other MCU movie. CGI shitfest galore. No idea what the fuck is going on.

They did. Just almost certainly not directly. Every time a transphobe repeats rhetoric that demeans our very existence as a joke or something bad, our collective depression and helplessness increases, as does our chances to be the victim of violent crime.

Chappelle's exact words likely didn't kill her. The anti-trans hatred he added to society likely did. Words really do matter.
Quote
I wish something so obvious didn't have to be said.

I hope Chappelle at least takes time to think about the ideas I'm talking about. He can still change and leave his harmful transphobia behind.
Quote
Dave peddles transphobia. He normalizes transphobia. He dresses it up as jokes without punchlines, but it is still transpobia.

What do you think rampant transphobia does to people? Why do you think we don't allow naked open racism in comedy?

Dave may have been her friend, but he is a transphobia piece of shit who empowered other shitty transphobes who didn't have the cover of having a trans friend.

He didn't kill her and she wasn't hurt by him. He also stoked the fires of the transphobia that hurts all trans people.
This is how these alt-right icons operate, look at PewDiePie ordering the mass shooting in New Zealand. All the defenders were saying the same shit "he didn't actually order it" or "it was totally unrelated" which makes the dog whistles even clearer.

So if Dave's words didn't kill her and she wasn't hurt by him then what the fuck is there to discuss here? Why are we using the tragic suicide of somebody who he became friends with to disgustingly shout LOOK AT ME PLEASE!!

Fucking ERA. That thread would have been locked and Incel fucking banned permanently if moderation had any semblance of a nutsack among them.

Man I thought I was a MCU fangirl but these people are nuts. The MCU being the McDonald’s of movies shouldn’t be a controversial statement, it’s what makes them fun. But they are mad that fucking Scorsese doesn’t consider them as more than that. That’s fucking crazy, it’s no wonder they think something like Captain Marvel breaks new ground or that a movie like Joker is super controversial
A drive through big mac and fries can be great after a night of clubbing and drinking but gentlemen of culture know if you want to impress your date and get laid later you take them to watch the joker and if she's feeling especially cute take her to the gun range after :smug

Quote from: MidnightJon
no way, bronx-man did something plainly and obviously disingenuous knowing that half the forum wouldn't read past the OP?

Inflammatory generalizations about a community!

Quote from: MidnightJon
also extremely cool how bronx-man keeps getting banned for making racist jokes about warren

Backseat moderating!

Quote from: Anthrax
Yeah, it's super cool

Love me some racist "progressives"

At least take his thread making privileges away if this is the level of OP he's gonna make

More backseat moderating this time from a different polieratard

Quote from: MidnightJon
honestly if he's just gonna keep randomly taking potshots and trying to bait poliera just fuckin' perm him at this point, there's nothing he brings to the table anymore as a poster that 5 other people don't bring in equal measure

Still more backseat moderating, I presume MidnightJon thinks he’s in the PoliEra discord at this point.

Quote from: MidnightJon
this last ban is a repeat offense and he ain't getting better

Now we’ve got sleuthing, definitely not upset at all.

Quote from: Resident neoliberal Kirblar chimes in
He's done it before, specifically with Warren. It's not a new thing.

Kirblar! :rejoice

Quote from: MidnightJon, still fuming
matter of fact that post is literally the exact same "joke" that he ate a 2-week ban for last time

Bronx man is living rent free in MidnightJon’s head

Quote from: Fat4all
reading is for suckers and chumps

Fat4all realized someone else was getting attention and needed to shitpost and remind people he still existed, neat.

Quote from: MidnightJon... again
ah yes, good. so bronx-man's mission was successful, in that almost none of us are talking about the actual policy she announced but instead about this non-binding pledge (where the context of how seriously she expected anyone to adhere to it wouldn't even escape Jacob Wohl)

It’s all Bronx-man’s fault that PoliEra derailed his thread.

Quote from: Mod
Given the intent of this thread, we have locked it. If someone wants to create a new one to discuss the policy, they are welcome to.

Ah yes, it was a bad faith thread, of course. :putin

Which Resettler wrote this Joker review?

https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/christen-limbaugh-bloom-joker-movie-upset-me.amp

Quote
With that in mind, I can confidently say if the Joker character were a real person, there would have been gleams of hope for him along his journey, because that IS the reality of the world God created. He cares about all of His children, and makes every effort to bring all of them back to His loving arms. I hope people are careful not to mix up fiction with reality, no matter how similar it may appear on the surface.

The news just had a interview with Scorsese. Shaking right now.
Plus he has the gall to use special effects to de-age De Niro (who never starred in a Marvel movie) - doesn't he realise that special effects began with Iron Man and was perfected over the years to it's pinacle, Endgame?

would you trust this man?

I'm trying to get details but the partisan noise (both sides) on this is insane. I don't have any opinion beyond the e-drama but as far as I can tell Mignogna's lawyers are Mickey Mouse grifters and it's really hurting any case he might have. They appealled.

The weirdest thing about the trans homicide statistics is that there's nothing to be selective about.  On average over the last five years, there's been like 24 or 25 trans homicides annually in the U.S., half of which were from domestic disputes.  I've looked this up, from multiple sources because I thought it couldn't be true, but it is, 100%.  Doesn't seem to stop ERA from saying it's an epidemic or whatever.  Literally 25 trans homicides per year.

I mean ya, per capita 25 trans homicides may be a staggering number depending on the total population.

For a website that seemingly has a high trans population it's not surprising that they would consider it an epidemic.

Seemed more like a judge thing than a lawyer thing tbh. But yeah they're appealing, the interesting part of the case is over for me personally at least, the result is a little whatever  :trumps

There's also that whole part where they don't know what the term "epidemic" even is supposed to mean, another part where they're beyond self-centered into sometimes being confused that a world outside themselves exists and then the whole other part where they over-exaggerate literally everything into a literal very urgent crisis literally happening every second literally even if it's only happening on Twitter.

spoiler (click to show/hide)
Also we're talking about suicide here. (Although the point on homicide is shared here even more extensively it's still a separate "epidemic" sweeping the globe.) The transgender population has a minuscule suicide rate. By their advocacy groups own "shock headline" statistics, one lower than pretty much any other population group you can think of. It is amazingly safe to be transgender. No matter what alt-right icon Dave Chappelle wishes.

spoiler (click to show/hide)
It's also amazingly more safe to be white than black. White and transgender makes you essentially immortal compared to say... just to pick two entirely random demographics here out of a hat... black and male.

Welp, I guess people who find Scorce's statements unfair and a tad gatekeep-y are Nazis now, pack it in boys, the Anti-MCU crowd has reached their biggest low yet.

Sad to see that movie discourse on Era has reached this sort of level, but I guess some people just gotta feel good about their superior Cinema/Kino no matter the cost.

I wonder what pretentious crap should i be watching so that i can avoid being compared to MAGA dudes, just for liking some marvel movies.

I don't think you would be banned for saying Nintendo games are formulaic... but you would probably be banned for comparing Nintendo fans to white supremacists.

It's honestly pretty disturbing how many on the last page saw nothing wrong with that comparison. I'm not even that big of an MCU fan these days but it's really not a hill to die on.
Quote
I’m kinda not surprised by the people who liked that meme on the last page. Same ones who complain about the MCU on every thread while trying to keep the facade of “elevated cinema discussion”.
Quote from: bomma man
the point of the joke is not that you’re a racist for liking mcu, the point is that there are 300 marvel movies a year, that all make more money than god, that are all apparently decently competent, but that’s not enough - the cultural elite need to accept them as art for some reason, and any criticism by that cultural elite is met with a billion fan pile on. That’s why they are compared with the MAGA crowd, who are apparently the most persecuted people on earth - despite dominating all arms of government - because culture is still predominately liberal.
Quote from: Alice
Now that's some grade a reaching. No one in this thread has said MCU films are high art, or even want them to be considered as such. That's ridiculous. Not to mention that there's little to no link to the MAGA crap.

I could be saying the people who discount MCU films as cinema are like the Gamergaters saying people who play cellphone games aren't gamers. Still find the meme funny, or accurate?
Quote
That doesn't make the comparison any better.
Quote from: Alice
Yeah, comparing people to Nazis is hilarious!
Quote from: yepyepyep
The joke is making fun of the similarity between both MAGA and obsessive MCU stans being oversensitive to criticism when they are already dominating in society.
Quote from: Alice
It's hilarious, because Scorcese's fans are being so oversensitive to the criticism he receives, that they go as low as comparing people who enjoy the MCU to Nazis.

comparing people who enjoy the MCU to Nazis.
This is literally not true though, and a totally cynical, one might say over sensitive, misreading of the joke
Quote from: Alice
Except that several people have called how shitty that fucking "joke" and comparison is. Like I said, I could be comparing Scorcese Stans to Gamergaters telling people that they're not real gamers (TM) because they play cellphone games. Would be funny to see how long that would go without me getting banned over it.
Quote from: yepyepyep
It was a joke, relax jeeves. And you are completely missing the point as well. It has nothing to do with racism. Also lol, the true oversensitive people were Scorsese fans all along #Galaxybrain
Quote from: Alice
Comparing people to Nazis over your bullshit Film Elitism isn't a fucking joke. (Since when has Era adapted the "It's just a prank, brah!" mindset anyway? This is toxic as fuck.) And who's even mentioning racism? Speaking as someone who adores Scorcese's output, Scorcese fanboys on this forum are looking incredibly bad.
Quote from: yepyepyep
Calm down, there is no need to get so upset. Also you keep bringing up Nazis but then ask who is bringing up racism? Me no compute.
Quote from: Alice
Don't tell me how I'm supposed to feel while you're discounting a shitty ass comparison as "It's just a joke".

Your attempts at gish-gallopping are tiring. There's a meme comparing MCU Stans to the Alt-Right and you, for literally no reason, bring up Racism. Are you one of those "tHe AlT-RiGhT aRe'Nt NaZiS" folks?
Quote from: yepyepyep

You. You brought up Nazis and racism by comparing MCU fans to a group that infamously includes Nazis and racists.
I am not sure if you are aware but I didn't post the meme lol. I just explained the joke to Alice because they didn't get it.
Quote from: Alice
Do not tell me how to feel. You're the one defending a Nazi comparison as "It's just a joke". You've no authority on if I did, or did not get it, simply because you agree with the meme and find it funny. So miss me with your shitty ass smokescreens trying to talk a toxic meme into something harmless.
Quote from: Alice
Exactly. Not to mention even trying to imply the levels of self righteousness and hatred that the MAGA camp subscribes to in their self-victimization.

User Banned (5 Days): Defending an inflammatory point of comparison over multiple posts

Then you're seriously missing something. If a comparison invokes something so politically charged, you're more or less bringing all that with it. No one is gonna read an image like this and go "Ha ha, it's funny because they're both over-sensitive", they're going to think that the two groups share values in the eyes of whomever created it.
Well it appears we have a different sense of humour I guess. It's a silly meme making fun of sensitivity within groups. One of the punchlines is the oversensitivity of MAGA people so I am not sure why I am being accused of racism lol.

Is this now a Sensitive Thread™?

Jesus christ, Alice. Shut the fuck up.

You'll never convince me that people who can get that vexed over cape films have faced any actual real problems in their lives. Not buying it.

lol Also the Vic verdict is in, saw it a week ago. All charges were dismissed.

EDIT: Saw your p.s. now.

I'm trying to get details but the partisan noise (both sides) on this is insane. I don't have any opinion beyond the e-drama but as far as I can tell Mignogna's lawyers are Mickey Mouse grifters and it's really hurting any case he might have. They appealled.
Seemed more like a judge thing than a lawyer thing tbh. But yeah they're appealing, the interesting part of the case is over for me personally at least, the result is a little whatever  :trumps

My favorite part is when Alice tries to think of an outrageous example as a comparison to illustrate the toxic nature of the "joke" and goes with "Gamergaters calling mobile games not real gamers" as the line crosser.

You know what, the "World's Depression Index" is a great concept actually.
It should be measured and tracked like the stock market.

Only if it can then be used to index some kind of credit, like if Amazon buys Depression Index credit they can offset how badly they treat their workers.

oh no. It was the worst.
List of topics, American dude was trying to impress German girl with:

- his stance on Obama’s healthcare policies
- that whole he doesn’t like Trump’s “sometimes lies” that he likes some of his polices, and he’s a
Policy guy
- that our healthcare is the greatest in the world and others wish they were us
- that Americans have moral authority to tell others what to do.


... that is where I got off and turned to the woman and said “he is the worst example of an American... run.”

also? Hiroshima... you are an amazing town.

They delay the end of each season all the time, it’s pretty much expected for “Overtime” challenges so I highly doubt it’s purely that. I gotta agree with those calling it a cheap (expensive) trick. I just want to play, enough with the theatrics. It’s a holiday for most and I understand the angst/anticipation. It just seems poorly timed.

Quote from: KartuneDX, post: 25432767, member: 38249
Yeah, no shit? It doesn’t mean it’s any less poorly timed to have this downtime on a holiday.

Again, no shit. You’re not witty or clever, and it is what it is. People want to play, it’s fine.
Quote from: scare_crow, post: 25432959, member: 23867
If you send them a schedule, I'm sure they'll time the next update around your time off.
Quote from: KartuneDX, post: 25433043, member: 38249
So people would prefer to entertain a pointless guessing ARG that keep millions of people on their toes rather than transparent update/downtime times as might be standard? It’s fine that it’s more than likely standard maintenance but don’t pretend this is a fun, quirky little promotion.
Quote from: scare_crow, post: 25433156, member: 23867
Man, loosen up. It's clearly downtime/marketing for the new season. Just because you don't know exactly the second you'll get to play again, doesn't mean it's some huge affront.

But it IS a fun, quirky little promotion.  :lol

When I think about the struggles people face in this life, it’s really the fact that people don’t like the same mindless popcorn entertainment as others that really brings a tear to my eye.

Btw I’ll never not laugh that the lgbt “representation” in endgame was one tiny scene that could be cut without zero impact to the film prior to being shipped out to ENEMY OF FREEDOM China.

I support your efforts to impeach him, but that’s likely to fail, and it is well within your — our — power to remove him at the ballot box when that happens.

But if you can’t get to 270 electoral votes, you’re going to have to live with me as the grumpiest roommate you ever had. You can count on four years of me letting the tub get grimy, leaving my dishes in the sink and not speaking to you.
