I don't mean to keep this going but the author - who again is a reactionary - is literally playing sexuality-police.

The thing is you're agreeing with the author - who is a reactionary..

A label shouldn't determine whether your sexual preference is valid or not. I also didn't say anything about validity. Just saying this reactionary authors usage of demisexual is contradictory and low key exploitative.

Most CVS's have at-home rapid tests that don't require a brain-deep sinus swirl - and they are accurate. Get tested.

This is literally no different of a brain poison than what you read from liberal wine moms making like RBG voodoo dolls on Facebook. The online left is fucking insane.

Damn but wait, I was told by my Youtube daddy that DSA is a deradicalizing imperalist op filtering people into the democratic elite establishment.

Yes she would. Her being attractive + popular + the message on her dress - is what's driving the vitriol. There were literally 20 other elected officials at the gala - because it's a fundraiser for a non-profit museum in their city and they're invited for free. Her message on her dress is literally only good. That is, if you understand that she is - and always has been - a demsoc electoralist.

The only people this will piss off are reactionary chuds and clout demon online leftists who haven't been in a social situation with more than 10 people since college.

The response to the message on her dress from hyper online bummy leftists would not change if it were "Tax the rich", "Eat the rich" or anything else.

Lol a criticism of which literally reinforces AOC's purpose of her messaging at the gala.

Here you go mate. People who watermark their memes are worse than Al Qaeda.

Lol Morpheus was canonically killed off in a 2005 Matrix video game in an alleyway by a person hiding in a vent.

Fuck, hate to be the typical online pessimistic contrarian but fuck does this look bad.

From a cinematography / visual standpoint this is just dripping in overly CGI digital aesthetic. I mean look at the first fucking scene in the trailer. They CGI'd a house into San Francisco backdrop. Literally just why? Lol.

Compare this to the original Matrix, with the thought out character blocking and usage of urban spaces, framing, the more subdued, symmetrical , gorgeously monochromatic, neo-noir aesthetic.

Second, is the nostalgia porn. Callbacks / excessive homages are the absolute cheapest and exploitative ways to mask a bad story. Oh look, Neo dodges bullets again. He fist fights K-Mart Morpheus in a dojo again (why?), he does the blurred multi-armed punch thing against a wall. The guy at the end literally pulls a "What is this some type of suicide squad?". That trailer was 20 seconds away from Keanu breaking the 4th wall and saying "Well THAT just happened".

Also, personal opinion, the world needs to eradicate "Wire Fu" - or wire based fight choreography. Theres nothing cornier than a dude getting pulled up from his pants to do a 5 second 720 karate chop. Especially when Keanu Reeves literally stars in a franchise that has some of the best fight choreography out there (John Wick).

Now, all of the CGI riddled cliches in the trailer could be very much intentional and the movies underlying themes being some super interesting meta-narrative and commentary on franchise reboots, etc. If so that would actually be pretty cool. But off first glance of the trailer it looks like a Star Wars esque revamp.

Only way to find out is to watch it and I will absolutely consume this slop regardless.

I fail to see the problem with her comment.

Thanks mate - just did.

Technically we have lower taxes than most of the developed world - but its just even more painful because it's only by like 5% and we get fuckin 0% of the social benefits. Like if you lived in France you'd prolly make even less $$, still get that $400 taken from your check, but you'd have healthcare/housing/university/etc.

lolol for real. Been living in CA for 11 years but lived in MN for 18 years prior and love hearing even some of my leftist friends shit on CA as some uniquely neoliberal hellhole in our godforsaken neoliberal hellscape of a country. As if Minneapolis isn't essentially a more racist San Francisco without the diversity, weather, architecture, proximity to world class nature, and ocean views.
