I already said that it was and y’all are just gonna pretend that it wasn’t over and over again. It’s f–ked up, man

This makes it sound like she previously did say it was a genocide?

They explicitly state that he’s not trans in the movie as well, but yes that movie was a lot of peoples first or only exposure to the idea of gender transition and that’s probably done a lot of harm.

In the book Snow Crash people who use VR while functioning in public are called “gargoyles” and are universally despised and mocked as try-hard dorks. It’s pretty neat to see at least one thing from the sci-fi I grew up on come true.

They’re dumber than they used to be, right?

I watched the first episode a few weeks ago and wow is it dark. I thought they were building up to the scientist’s kid having his mind put in a Robot body, but no. That child is dead and this Astro Boy is the scientist’s unhealthy coping mechanism.

No you’re right our brave mujahideen fighters in Ukraine deserve the right to have their conscripts poison and maim their own children. They’ve got the uranium bullets and cluster bombs, but surely we’ve got some agent orange around here we can spare.
