A Christian is anyone who HONESTLY identifies as one.

Does this look like someone who is afraid a wannabe dictator is going to kill thousands to hundreds of thousands of her people? Does she look "shocked and appalled?"

you yourself were under the same rule. You'd express some emotion, right? The people you're telling it to should be scared, not thoughtfully considering the realities.
Democrats need to emote. They need to inspire reasonable fear, so they need to look afraid as well.

You're not very good at following this if you think that's what I think.
No, I think no one should listen to your criticisms of how people protest if you disagree with the very concept of the protest. I think it's disingenuous to criticize the way they protest if you don't even support their ideas

I'm staying on topic. You're trying to turn this into something it's not.

Your logical conclusion is that I believe something I've never even insinuated in the first place? I neither condemned nor endorsed any form of violence so all you're doing is jumping to conclusions and changing the subject. That's not logic.

Why would I say that? My opinions haven't been the subject of this at all

I don't think your honest criticism can also be sarcasm.

So you were being sarcastic and your criticism WASN'T about the way people are protesting, but also you really mean it about how bad you think this method of protesting is.

Your first message was about the way people are doing this, but now you're showing that that's not your issue with it at all.

So it's not that you care about methods at all, then.

How are you trying to handle our authoritarian government?

Look at people's response to AOC. Same thing. So many of these (mostly men) can't be attracted to a woman and respect her at the same time.

Same here. I've been listening mostly to him since the movie.

Just a genuinely wonderful person. I love near a park named after him and I can't wait to point it out and explain to my son who he is when he's old enough.

First edition? It's got to be, like, one of the books that got edited into the Pentateuch or a full, unbroken Epic of Gilgamesh or something.

Disappointingly could not find any hammer and sickle shaped chicken nuggets on Google. Found some gun shaped ones, though.

From Cutter's vision of the future, I think he'd be proud

I think that part of what made that line/scene so good was that he was baptizing him, doing exactly the same thing that had been done to him. He was even making everyone else participate in his own culture. Playing HIS music.
You're right, Coogler really is a master of getting into the nuance.

The line of his that REALLY got me was about how he found comfort in the Lord's Prayer, though it (and Christianity, probably) had been forced on him. Hinting that he's from an Ireland before Christianity and that his Ireland had also had their culture erased by outsiders.

Way funnier if a bunch of kids in brown uniforms and sashes go to arrest him

I usually think he doesn't believe his lies, but he's so unbelievably computer illiterate that I don't think he can spot even an obvious Photoshop job. I think he believes it and it's too much work trying to convince him otherwise so no one on his team has bothered trying.

Maybe she's right and we're wrong. We should change our names based on our professions. I'll be "Booker Reed" the librarian

Her last name was originally "Plantagonist"

Okay, but to be this level the person's first name would have to actually be "Doctor"

At this point it may as well be

Honestly! I went on to read the rest and it was all soap opera levels and stuff, but I keep going back to her name. Not that you don't know exactly what you're getting with "Ryle" and "Atlas" too

I'm stuck on her being a florist named Lily Bloom.

I realized that I loved the movie when I realized that I'd come to see a vampire movie but was dreading the vampires coming in to ruin these characters' joy.

She's remarkably graceful and coordinated. Aside from just being adorable, she's actually impressive.

It is not. Her legacy lives on in so many other manufactured pop culture icons. She was just a template.
