    yes, yes... we all know you're the only one with a job who pays rent, buys his own food, etc...

    explain to me why I'm a 'stunted child'. I mean, it's pretty well documented that I've always been far more independently functional than you've ever contemplated being.

    Diacanu substitutes his own silly fiction for reality because it's easier to argue against.

    Amaris even more so, with the extra dash of "my feelings should be everyone else's priority, and if they resist they are bigots."

    You're more the type who chooses to romanticize "rebelling against mom and dad" behaviors rather than expecting yourself or anyone else to grow the fuck out of it. Anyone who doesn't play along with the vacuous "peformative revolutionary in comfortable western society" tantrums is obviously a fascist "boot licker."

    "rebelling against mom and dad"?
    okay, still gonna need examples, not concepts.

    not even sure what to make of "performative"?

    again, gonna have to explain your perception with examples

    I know, it was asking a lot to have him back up his shit with the examples he always demands of others rather than meaningless word salads.

    Once again displaying how his whole pose is well, nothing but a pose.

    January 6th wasn’t no big deal, it was a protest that turned into a riot and was over in a matter of a few hours as opposed to the BLM riots that lasted several weeks. But I fail to see how that is relevant to the discussion of Green Lantern and his use of force on citizens.

    how is jan 6 comparable to any individual George Floyd disturbances? (BLM riots? that's some yellow journalism there kiddo not too mention comparing a number of events to a single one)

    Sure, several cities erupted during protests from a variety of provocations/provocateurs over four cops slowly murdering a man in broad daylight

    It's not like there was an intention to subvert the democratic process by those same boogaloo boys that tossed the first molotovs in minnesota.

    Good Quartering impression; now you have to do a 4 hour gaming stream drunk, crying, peeing in a wastebasket, and heavily implying your wife is out cheating.

    Spider-Man's uncle Ben dying, and the lesson being "with great power comes great responsibility" isn't exactly subtle stuff.
    Neither is RDJ Tony Stark being a Tate level douche bro who learns to be self-sacrificing.
    The feminism is handled the same way Marvel handles all its lessons.
    You just hate feminism.
    You're a conservative who hates liberals.
    Which is fine, except that your lying ass can't even cop to being that.
    At least FF cops to it.

    If a drunk guy peeing in a wastebasket can own someone, owning means nothing, and you've just widened the goalposts to outside the universe.
    Good job, champ.

    Again with the accusations of lying. You're like a toddler trying to get your way. Just lob out random bullshit, and if I don't defend against it, then it must be true.

    The problem isn’t feminism or “woke”. The problem is Hollywood studios want the writers to differentiate, through action and dialog, male role and female roles. Which is asinine. Like women can’t go through the same shit men go through. I think those Hollywood execs would have a heart attack if they ever met an actual woman. Also Jeremy from the Quartering can bite my shiny metal ass.

    Ope, Megan Thee Stallion is the mascot for Planet Fitness, and this is her look.
    A black woman with purple hair?

    As far as I know, she's not politically outspoken.
    But don't worry, someone will make a up a reason to be angry for you.
    Someone will catch her eating the wrong brand of cookie or some shit.
