I'm not generally a body shamer, but the red ranger has an immenesely fat head.

Also, along with Hitler, in his world's greatest warriors lineup is Chuck Norris.

He's a fucking moron isn't he?

The best response I saw was, "He was really the 'White Power Ranger' the whole time".

And that's a much kinder photo of him than the original article I saw. It was more recent, and I was wondering who the heck this guys was. Time hasn't been kind.
He was in prison for a bit because of the fraud he did. I don't imagine that helped.

Yesterday JK got a stamp of approval from Varg Vikernes, the murderer neo-nazi arsonist black metal guy. You know, the coolest. That's the kind of thing that should make a reasonable person go, oh, maybe I should reflect. She's rich and terf-brained, so that will not happen.

You know, even as someone who never really connected with Harry Potter, it still makes me sad to see her reacting to the possibility that people don't read/don't like her work by saying "oh well, got your money!"

Rowling really doesn't like being called a Holocaust denier:

I really wonder how much of the books she actually wrote and how much was done by her editor. Or were we suppose to root for Drako and Voldemort?

This is very much one of the conservative thought issues where they don't believe they are like the Nazis/Facists/Whatever because they don't literally call themselves that. It's a larger part of their general literacy issues, in that they don't understand nuance, themes, or subtlety in media or in speech. Part of this is just ignorance and part of it is just the willful dismissal of responsibility (i.e. they feel their actions are always justified, even when monstrous).

It's kind of like when they try to say Nazis were left wing because they called themselves National Socialists. It doesn't matter that they never adopted any leftist policies, it only matters what they said they were Socialists.

I think some people try to deny the association between Nazism and far-right politics because of the troglodytes who have been causing trouble for the past eight years. For these folks, they don’t wish to condemn people who look like them, who they might know, and who share many of the same anxieties. And so it’s easier for them to say “these aren’t Nazis. The people opposed to them are Nazis AND communists.”

Nazis are left wing, not right wing. Because the name “Socialist” is in their official title. - The Trump guys I work with

They're apparently experts on European political history, American Civil War history, international security, public health, and evolutionary biology. I don't think the School of Hard Knocks is an accredited institution of higher learning.

Speaking of Harrison Butker, today was NFL Schedule Release Day. Every team does some cute or funny video to announce their schedule each year; some are better than others. The Chargers are usually very good. They did theirs in The Sims this year and they put Butker in the kitchen
