  • Not that long ago I tried that on a free trial, I just don't get it. Like there's nothing on there. I used it to get to watch a couple football games, not even the local ones you can't watch those, but there was nothing else. Shocking lack of content for a paid product.

  • That's how all his Charities are. It's all bullshit. None of them are actually to help people. They always involve private funding of some bullshit that's going to harm the world. Never public good, for a guy who's entire career is based upon the use of free software he spent his entire life killing anything that could be free and open to people.

  • Shulkind, who leads one of the largest Jewish day schools in the U.S., said Milken came “as an act of Zionism to experience Israel for all of its wonder and all of its pain post-Oct. 7.”

    Kind of sounds like a case of shitty things happen to shitty people to me

  • Never suggested it did. I just said that whatever was in the video enraged him to the point that he killed someone over it. So maybe we should take that as an indication of what he thought of the video. Doesn't that make more sense than thinking that they accepted the police's story 100%?

  • My brother what the hell? I just made a whole comment about how you're looking at it too literally and you're missing the Forest for the trees by focusing on her instead of the general point. Then you made an entire comment focusing specifically on her.

    As for whether or not it's a good metaphor, well that was never the question or anything either of us talked about. But I think yes X-Men is an excellent metaphor for discrimination based upon your birth and who you are. It's extremely meaningful for a lot of people and I think it's changed a lot of Minds over the decades.

  • It works for any marginalized group being discriminated against for who they are and who they're born as. The point however though is that's what it's an allegory for. Y'all are all looking at this too literally. A perfect example of someone missing the forest for the trees. It's trying to make that overall point. If people don't remember to look at it in that context they're missing the point of the story. It's really just a lack of media literacy from a lot of people in here.

    It's like reading animal farm and not being able to get past the fact that the animals are cooperating. That ain't the point. It's the ability, or apparently the lack thereof, of being able to think about a concept abstractly.

  • X-Men's in allegory for racism and/or homophobia. You can't pretend to read these kind of scenes without remembering that. What they're saying is there's a cure to being gay or black. Think about that and think about storms response.

  • His point was you don't fire wildly when you don't know what you're aiming at. Cops routinely hurt other people because they don't care about what's in their field of Fire. Also very important to note no one said anything about anyone firing on the police. You're adding that.

  • You're saying key facts, but there's no proof at this time that he was aiming a gun at the cops. The article makes that very clear. That has not been established at all. There's nothing that proves he even had a weapon. That's a claim the police made. But has not been proven. You should never ever take police statements as fact. Particularly when they so obviously have motive not to be truthful.

  • If that's not one of the first questions Monday morning from the White House Press pool they should all be fired. What other Oaths does he not know if needs to uphold? What other parts of the Constitution which he took an oath to defend and uphold does he not believe in?
