Those “keep politics out of x” is so ridiculously ignorant. As if self-censorship is politically neutral 🤦♂️ As if avoiding LGBT representation is neutral. Just wait until they discover that Star Wars is political and has always been 😂
My dad loves to say “I hate how political movies are now”, and I’m just like “How many movies have you made me sit through over the years where the main takeaway is ‘The US military and government and all of their policies are awesome and correct.’”
I mean… it’s actually kind of disturbing how many there are, The green Berets, Top Gun, Transformers, Black hawk down, some grey area ones like saving private ryan and similar.
Of course, you’d get the other side of the coin with say movies like rambo, apacalypse now Born on the fourth of july etc…
Didn’t the first(?) (The one where the main guy finds Bumblebee) movie have the government as the secondary bad guys?
And where has that mentality been since?
Not sure. It’s been a while since I watched a transformers movie.
For how much conservatives hate anything LGBTQ showing up in movies, it’s weird that they love Top Gun so much. That movie is probably the most homosexual piece of media I’ve ever had to witness, and I’ve enjoyed quite a bit of gay porn in my days.
Also the Dick Wolf copagenda universe.
I actually liked when Stabler was on SVU way back when - the name being at complete odds with the character’s personality alone was pure genius.
Just saw Rambo for the first time. Sylvester Stallone was so good in that PTSD scene at the end.
Then it was First Blood.
Conservatives tend to be some mix of stupid, cruel, and willfully ignorant. You have to be or the worldview falls apart.
Keep politics out of Wolfenstein
never heard of star wars, but i agree on the rest
According to Lucas the rebel alliance was based on the Vietcong.

That’s so interesting. I heard in the post-red scare era a lot of left political commentators turned to sci-fi because it allowed them to commentate without being censored.
Art can defeat the state!
Some has some pretty bad ironic concepts though. Like the expanse in my opinion was a strong version of that. In watching it it really showed the capitalism hell, with the belt clearly representing some level of the working class/the global south.
To me the great irony of it though was after it got canceled, Jeff Bezos personally took towards buying the show and using amazon prime to keep it going.
Not only the Belters. The part where they show the city around the UN building does it too.
never heard of star wars
But I’m sure you heard of it’s main protagonist, Captain Kirk
That’s star trek. Star wars is the one where the kid finds the alien and helps him get back home.
That’s ET, Star Wars is where group scientists in Artactica find an alien organism that can imitate whatever it absorbs.
Thst’s The Thing, Star Wars is when a mining crew discover a new and deadly alien organism.
That’s The Thing. Star Wars is with the time travelling british twink.
That’s Doctor Who. Star Wars is the one with the computer that says “I’m afraid I can’t do that, Dave” and starts murdering the crew.
That’s 2001: A Space Odyssey. Star Wars is the one where a robot goes back in time to kill a lady before she gives birth to the leader of a resistance movement.
hey, we’re talking about Kirk now. This is a Kirk thread now. /s
There’s only one captain of my heart

the best scene is when he pulls the Picard Maneuver
that was St.Ronald Reagan’s boondoggle plan to protect USA from Commie missiles
“It’s not politics if it’s my politics!”
What’s political about gays
That’s how /pol/ (and by extension, Bannon/Epstein/some stormfront users) were able to convince a generation of men to police the internet on their behalf. Sounds very convincing to centrists and previously apolitical people, had some success already in Hungary by the 2010s (which ended with Fidesz calling the resulting as apolitical art as humanly possible as “valueless, without any meaning”), and was the thing that ultimately convinced a generation of gamers to start a “consumer revolt” that was actually a right wing astroturf campaign.
Not enough tongue, draw them kissing harder.
“the risk isn’t worth it” lowkey sounds like a threat.
Haha! You’ve fallen for my bait! Now there will be even MORE hot Yuri action.


That’s it dagnabbit! I’ve had it!!!
Next time I’m voting for the kissing demons party!
Reverse psychology 101
Has love always been political? 🥺
If you’re not straight and cis? Yes.
Remember,
There’s only two genders: male and political. There’s only two races: white and political. There’s only two sexualities: straight and political There’s only two religions: Christian and political.
Dang, I’m apolitical 😞
According to that I’m 75% apolitical. My family and friends will be so relieved to hear that.
If you’re straight and CIS? Yes.
Awesome comic, my only nitpick is the lower-left blue heart somewhat out of place (clothing patch?), otherwise very expressive for only 2 panels with faces
Protest public displays of affection would be the #1 thing I’d miss if homophobia disappears (it’s worth it of course, just like I wouldn’t want anyone to get fired at no matter how cool they might look dodging bullets)
OH SHIT! We’ve had a breach! Femcel memes have started leaking out!
Fuck yeah
People just let strangers into their DMs? I don’t get this.
I get random messages on Telegram all the time. This was one of the best:

It’s fun messing with them on occassion.
Lucifer
lol
I mean, why not?
Anyway, this remind me of that

They had the profile like that when they wrote me lol

I mean, why not?
Exactly because of the shit you just showed me? lmao
I mean, it happened 2 times in 2 years or more and i got many useful DMs that i wouldn’t have got if i disabled them
I suppose it depends on the platform. If you are on Discord e.g. and only are on servers where you trust most of the userbase to be solid people, I can imagine it’s fine. But like, X? Facebook, Instagram? Fugedaboutit.
Idk, i don’t get DMs at all on Instagram, i can’t speak for Facebook (but i guess no one uses it nowdays so let’s ignore it) and Twitter but i would expect people on Twitter to DM you
I’m not tryna find out, I disable public DMs on all platforms where I don’t expect people to know me unless I add them (back). Strict policy. We either tight like that or we’re not talking.
Unless it’s Facebook Marketplace in which case yes ma’am how are you today, yes this item is still available, what nice weather we’re having, what time can you pick up, and is that your sister, oh it’s your DAUGHTER, how lovely!
Now THAT’S politics
Whatever that is 2028
