I wanted to try starting over here. But, the vastly smaller user base means specific communities are harder to find, and those that do exist seem to be straggling along.
I think the most recent post in the science fiction one I found was eight days ago.
I get it, remove oneself from corporates that defend Nazis. But man is it hard to find something to keep out the bad thoughts when the alternatives are either throwing tumbleweeds or just amplifying the bad thoughts.
The CEO was a fucking hack. Good riddance.
He straight up said 'movie pirates are worse than drunk drivers' at one point.
I don't know about any of you, but I'm pretty sure media pirates haven't killed people with their negligence.
In ATLA, there's an infamous episode called The Great Divide.
Aang tells a lie to get two tribes to stop fighting a pointless feud that's been going on a hundred years or so. And the fandom seems to get all huffy about that.
I think he did the right thing. If there's nothing to prove he's lying about how the feud began, then there's nothing to prove about why it should continue either.
How Republicans feel after murdering a woman by deciding the fetus is more important.
You'd probably like Blake's 7 then, in regards to cameras.
Yeah, this is the theory that I've held since seeing a documentary investigating the whole incident. And for the life of me I cannot recall the name.
I find it far easier to believe the CIA would scramble to cover up a colossal fuck-up over any shadowy conspiracy of assassination. Incompetence is more reliable than competence, in a way.
I don't care who gets bitchy over this;
America chose bald faced fascism and genocide, over the chance to end genocide and not-fascism.
Suck eggs, whenever you can save up for them. The stay-at-homes are just as guilty.
I can think of many many lives that the Nazi Reigime of America have destroyed. And lives are far more important than property.
The cars can burn.
Used to be Star Wars. Then my interest fizzled altogether anyway.
I feel like most sci-fi fandoms are like that. There are good bunches, then loud minorities that are either bigoted, excessive about details they don't like, or both
I don't recognise the current American regime as a valid government. Just like I don't recognise the Israeli occupation force as a valid state.
It's not remotely binding or even meaningful to anyone but myself of course. But hey, nothing matters these days.
They say "Every child has a right to education."
And then behave as if it's "Every child has a responsibility to be educated."
So yeah, while I absolutely think education in itself is vital, I do get peeved when they immediately lie by changing what they do versus what they say.
By they, I mean outdated education boards of self-absorbed twits who grew up decades earlier and have no real grasp of what today's generation needs.
Since you're getting down voted, I'll throw in some support with a plain fact.
Jill Stein has been at the same table as Putin. Repeatedly.
Her attitude in the election was 'we can deny votes to Kamala Harris'. Not 'we can deny votes to Donald Trump'.
She's a Russian agent that causes division and nothing more. If the American Greens want to be taken seriously, kick her out.
