Terry Moran is absolutely correct.
What kind of upside down fucked up world is this when Fox News can spew bullshit 24/7 and it's considered news, but a real journalist tells the truth and everyone wants to know how he's going to be held accountable? Is this the world people want?

One other thing: A lot of outlets are using the phrase "reverse discrimination," in quotes, leading some to conclude that SCOTUS used the phrase in its ruling.
It did not.
(And in fact, the whole premise of the ruling is that "reverse discrimination" isn't a thing under the Civil Rights Act.)

Probably still Nazi, tho.

If there’s anything I hope viewers will take away from my own contributions to the discussion, it’s that when you sign a contract, it’s not just with the cool editor you’re friends with, it’s with the techbro who might buy the company in 2 years and who would happily feed you into a woodchipper.

Man, I really HATE to admit it... but Number Six probably would be an antivaxxer. All like "A small individual contribution towards a greater good for the society? I've heard THAT before!"

Agreed. In fact, I think an absolutely essential element in Evelyn's journey is her realizing she SHOULDN'T be trying to "parent" the joy and optimism and playfulness out of Waymond, that it's a strength rather than a weakness.
