Ah yes, the British edition of MAGA — one of Farage’s loyal disciples who never asks questions.
Criticise their leader? Suddenly it’s special treatment only, please.
And if you dare mention the glaringly obvious racism?
Congratulations, you’re now a ‘lefty looney.’ How original.

nahh it’s a bad movie and incredibly dumb premise like the entire new republic core worlds are destroyed and then we never hear anything about it and instead get a movie about a car chase where the spaceship is running out of space gas

Rare horrific take
rogue one is bad folks. i have believed this since i saw it in theaters and no subsequent rewatch has changed my mind. basically a chop job until the final sequence, which is good (for star wars)

Rogue One only one space above TLJ be serious
haven’t seen ROS or Solo but this seems like a pretty ball-knowing list from Pritzker, particularly if he volunteered the name “Star Wars” rather than “A New Hope”

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

Trump has never seen Ukraine as anything but a pot to raid for political capital, its people expendable if they serve his petty goals (dirt on rivals, chasing vanity “peace” prizes, feedin headlines). Evil on that scale, in service of one man’s ego, is a moral crime against humanity in my book.
Ungrateful Ukrainians, didn’t even thank for such a brilliant plan of their own capitulation and rewarding the Russian aggressor.

I have a brilliant idea on how to counter Russia and China. We could focus on building up our partners in Asia and the ongoing conventional fucking war in Europe instead of a pointless war in South America.
