yeah dude and charlie brown had hoes

You'll be hard pressed to find anyone from that era of American politics that *wasn't* a shameless opportunist.

Eugene McCarthy was literally a coward and opportunist too, lol -- the guy was notoriously dismissive of civil rights causes and only turned against the Vietnam War because he was denied VP in 1964.

That's fair!

is Berkeley Barbarella still happening or has that gone to the heavens?

I think the main reason why that one didn't receive any backlash was due to the sheer fact that it wasn't doing racist ass East vs. West shit like every other Iron Man comic featuring the Mandarin was a central focus does lol

The character is literally a Fu Manchu, what are you talking about lol. there's nothing respectful there.

Wellstone being an RFK guy is funny but also kinda makes a lot of sense when you think about it –– especially when you read about the differences between McCarthy and Kennedy as both candidates and how they presented themselves to the American voter

Homecoming is funnily one of the few MCU movies that *actually* takes advantage of the shared universe aspect in interesting ways such as worldbuilding rather than just "i clapped when i saw it" slop

OSCORP Amazon Worker #6: "dude who the fuck keeps ordering all this shit"

To this day, I still don't know why they thought that was the plotline that was going put people's butts in seats

Say what you will about Homecoming, but at least that movie TRIED to justify it's existence –– it chose to do things differently than just trying to be derivative of what Raimi did.

ok.

I mean, the game clearly frames it as a "bad end" of sorts -- I think complaining that the game doesn't treat it as a good thing that you cut a woman that struggles with ADHD and asthma, whose implied to never had a job and was functionally homeless for most of her life is silly, lol

a young man wearing headphones is making a funny face while looking at the camera . ALT: a young man wearing headphones is making a funny face while looking at the camera .

ok.

It's funny you mention that scene where the Z-Team wanted her off, because Flambae calls out the hypocrisy of it all when they're letting him back on when he barely put in any effort either.

Again, a major double standard here, considering the fact that you probably let Coupé/Sonar back on if they did 15 9/11s on Los Angeles, lol

Visi only disobeyed orders *twice* –– you're acting like it's a constant when it's not. She only really lashes out at you *once*, but that's it. If you assist her against Thunderstruck, she thanks you and gets easier to deal with.

Seems like you didn't try hard enough man lol

Because you're not giving her the chance to, lmao –– it's all about choice, and you choose wrong.

I was able to avoid romancing her altogether, and managed to make her into a hero despite her screw-ups, IDK, man -- seems like skill issue

That's the point –– she's "not" like them because she's difficult, impulsive, and rude –– but you still / have / to try, because like. dude.

that's your job, lol -- nobody should be beyond redemption because of their own personality quirks or actions, that's just shitty carceral thought

I find that a really weird opinion considering the fact that it's implied numerous times that Flambae intentionally starts fires and puts them out so he can look like a hero, and Coupé killed journalists for a dictator, lol

all these characters have endangered people, they're all shits

At some point you can’t really blame the game anymore when it’s obvious that it’s Going For Something with its story and characters and you as the player just refuse to go along with it because they're not all unproblematic blorbos who don't always make the right choices and aren't likeable enough.

i don't think that statement really holds up to scrutiny considering 2 characters immediately join up with the supervillain terrorist squad if they're cut, and another one tries to kill you and is immediately welcomed back days later with open arms, lol

You also said something really weird about how superheroes being held unaccountable for their actions is *somehow* better than being under an international oversight committee -- something that I assumed you would be all for, since we seem to roughly share the same politics but ... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

dude you think I don't know the MCU is military propaganda? I did a whole ass college essay on this.

All I did was disagree with you on your reading of the film, and you just proceeded to waffle about something incomprehensible and had a great big crashout.

I am begging on my hands and knees for online leftists to just act normal about capeshit — literally not even hard, should not be difficult

This was a post brought on by me offering my own subjectivity opinion on a superhero movie, btw.

sometimes I think about how in Spider-Man Homecoming, Vulture gives his whole speech about how “They don’t care about the little guys like us” while standing in the biggest nicest house in new york and anyway that’s how I think of the right
