Because to white people it only exists as an admin adjustment. They've never had to deal with an assumption of guilt due to the color of their skin. They literally don't understand, and many refuse to learn or empathize

It won't. Musk will take it down to inject some more code to "fix bias" and end up causally introducing more asinine opinions (becusse he can't help himself). Get ready for HitlerBot 2.0: now with even more overt calls for ethnic cleansing

Hard agree. Watchmen's impact is mostly predicated on the reader having a long & deep history with superhero comics and their conventions. That context is what turns a good book into a great read. There are better first GNs

Of course there always exists fair, good-faith critics, but the majority of comments are xeroxes of their arguments for the haters' own means (been guilty of this myself before, upon reflection)

Nah, I've seen people (half-hazardly) brandish "literary theory" when it comes to new trek, MCU phase 4&5, nu Who, DCU, etc.

Haters of all franchises will recite the same buzzwords of any ragebait YT essay that supports their personal belief.

So why are you throwing Gaza into the ditch?

Why are Pete and Gavin and dozens others advocating for tossing trans kids to the wolves in order to court some imaginary single issue GOP voters?

You talk of defiance but deal only in appeasement. Be better

It was third party I believe, but yeah.

Funny, because Nintendo spend so much effort to distance the zapper as much as possible from realistic guns, and someone else decides added realism is what the market really wants

More outrage in the U.S. when a minor character gets killed off by the show's writers than when non-white kids are murdered in real life by men wearing uniforms.

Seeing all these reports about ChatGPT users who are becoming unhealthily attached to the LLM, to the point where the difference between v4 and v5 feels like "missing a friend"

And all I can selfishly think is "Guess who's looking emotionally balanced & mature in comparison, [ex-gf]!" πŸ˜…

I think the big question is: with how stacked the on-stagr contestant lineup is

Is the audience -which we know includes SAM at least- similarly/equally stacked?

Arguments about physical advantages have been used to discriminate against Black athletes.

Now, they’re being used to discriminate against trans athletesβ€”and children.

Here’s the kicker: transvestigations are already being used to attack Black women athletes.

So yea, we must oppose this BS.

You ever read Transmetropolitan? Garth Ennis' series about a Hunter S Thompson-esque figure in a transhumanist future. I'd call it cyberpunk, except it's a little more manic and not as dark/gritty

Easily one of my favorite comic series and definitely sticks the landing

I really like how you did the hair for Warlock. It's still wild, but has a more unified shape than the traditional "unruly bed of straw" look
