    "Woke" Franchises

    I'm not sure how true this is - generally speaking, even in modern extremely multiethnic states which stigmatize racial identity for the majority and make a point of promoting mixing, people tend to self-segregate. This tendency in modern multiethnic nations doesn't totally preclude what you're...

    Hmmm, so sailing the high seas means that even the (basically negligible) benefit to them is gone. So that’s more ethical. My stance is a pretty soft one here, so no real change. I think that unless you are over-consuming (e.g. always watching the latest big movie in theaters, having all the...

    Retaining the movies doesn’t benefit them in any way. If you were to delete and then re-purchase one, than that (in a very roundabout sense) does (although the effect is essentially negligible). I think that in the current situation it is probably impossible (or at least infeasible) to have...

    Okay that has to be a parody or something.

    "Remove the confederate flag!" "K, what should we put there instead?" "idc, a skull or something." (yeah, I know that's not the skull they used obviously)

    I'm well aware of this line of thought, and was specifically rebuking it in my original post. I don't care whether or not you want to believe that they'll always exist - empirically, we've seen that when people are arguing for removing them they are either the people who will be putting their...

    "There's always going to be blasphemy laws, the question is who and whom, with the exception of brief periods when the who and whom is changing." >That's why you want to get rid of them! How do you miss a point this badly? Conservatives constantly "warn" progressives about what if someone...

    Born an alien, raised in Kansas, lives in New York. From nowhere. Completely rootless. Get him out of here.

    >Lives In New York >Illegal Immigrant >Journ*list Always was. This isn't the "main" superman though, it's a character that first appeared in 2015 which is how they always do this kind of stuff.

    Didn't Gillette take like an 8 billion dollar loss over woke shit and their response was to double down and say it was worth it? The response corporations and media marketing homosexuality to children and being like "yeah this is a problem... because they're not being sincere about it" is in...

    Doubt. They do this because they're largely run by liberals and true believers, especially stuff like hr and the social media wing. Companies pushed back on Reagan trying to roll back affirmative action back in like the 80s, and it's only gotten worse since then. It's the Middle East ones where...

    They're not going to, there are plenty of non-Disney Cinderella spin offs, including modern ones. American copyright law, as I understand it, is mostly ridiculous in that it allows copyright to persist for so long, not in that it allows for absurdly expansive definitions of what falls into...

    Sure, but while the xenos overlords might be inclined to Reward them As the Traitor Deserves, any resurgent pro-Human power is definitely going to consider the priority to be "Traitors Before Enemies." Hmmm, something that might make sense is to have the Marshs be a honeypot- they're actually...

    I mean, as far as I can tell it's fictional and I don't think it's directly inspired by any real life figure (although it is based on a real phenomena), and playing games about politics based on fictional evidence is dumb anyway. But the answer to "which is better - 1. a bunch of bloodsucking...

    Hmmmm, worldbuilding idea, Changed Stars + added Pro-Human Space Pirate / Terrorist Faction (Specters of the Empire) or Last Bastion holdout world (The Citadel) then... Let's be xenophobic. Mostly cause the existing "human supremacist" factions are kinda underwhelming really. Could be like a...

    One thing I think is notable here is how they make one of the pro-Human factions somehow based on human defectors during the war. This doesn't make any sense, really - pro-Humans wouldn't trust or work with those who defected in the war, especially ones whose defection was strategically...
