I never actually watched dead set, but I remember it was airing at the same time I had a Media Studies project at school about zombies so the tutors kept bringing it up

Coppola was heavily involved in the production of the film where some of the abuse happened, and during the fallout he allegedly tried to sue the victim of the abuse for breach of contract
I don’t know why you’re being down voted, he is literally a billionaire
‘No ethical billionaires’ apart from this guy apparently
Honestly looks pretty good as actiony eye-candy
Bit ironic seeing this right after that post about how the fan-service and callbacks ruined the new Alien film though
I’d like to recommend The Trojan Horse Affair. Its a limited series and a few years old now, but a a really interesting listen
Its about the scandal in the UK in 2013, where an anonymous letter ‘exposed’ an Islamist conspiracy in Birmingham schools to radicalise children.
The investigation in the podcast is helmed by two people; a rookie journalism grad who is muslim, and an experienced white journalist. The contrast in perspectives and emotion between them adds to it
And yeah it’ll probably make you angry, and for those not in the UK it might key you in a bit on the tensions that do and don’t exist with British Muslims, how they’re viewed and treated by lots of parties here (including the Government)
I’d argue that TERF-ism, especially JKR’s brand of it, has both classist and racist elements ingrained within it
The whole ideology is based around gatekeeping ‘womanhood’ to a single shared demographic experience, denying feminism to those outside of it
There are ways in which trans women have had differing experiences of femininity from cis women. But the same is true of black women of white women, etc
It might be explicitly anti-trans; but it’s implicitly anti-in-group
I mean, unless there was a hoax that led to widespread belief that they were gonna launch a bomb
Its suspicious if its out of nowhere, but less so if its in response to an existing rumour
The short version is that he’s gutted public services in Florida and made life worse for nearly everyone there - while engaging in massive culture war bullshit to distract his base
Not to downplay that, it includes laws and discourse such as ‘Dont Say Gay’ and attacking school curriculums that are incredibly damaging. He’s the guy that flew refugees to Martha’s Vineyard to ‘make a point’

The font and moster-zombie dude is Iron Maiden (Eddy). I dont know if its AI or not but its not a real album cover, just a meme
And the antichrist characteristics they describe are a selection of the ones he fits, without including those he doesn’t. He hasn’t (pretended to) come back from the dead, and isn’t connected obviously to the number 666, for example.
The article actually specifically mentions both coming back from the dead (Covid) and 666 (Kushner).
Dont get me wrong, I’m not saying they aren’t tenuous and I’m 100% not saying he is the literal antichrist. But its not accurate to say they dont include that stuff
You wouldn’t take a shit in it though
If they’d rather die then they’d better do it, and decrease the surplus population!
So this, if it stands, keeps him off the Prinary ballot.
Hypothetically does it also keep him off the ballot in the General? Or does that need a new ruling?
No but thats still, you’re not protecting anyone you’re just shooting
Just because you don’t highlight ‘all ages events’ doesn’t mean it’s not part of the quote
Yup! And all we get for it is healthcare, childcare, college tuition, pensions, sick leave, maternity leave…
I love them all*, but the IT Crowd is at the top for me
