    Women are just as strong as men. If transwomen seem to dominate women's sports, it is because they overcame adversity and that is why they are strong.

    Anyway, if 100% of all people identify as women, we can solve all patriarchy imposed sex based gaps in every aspect of society.

    Goddammit Canada! I blame the US, as most of these ideas permeate from there. Canada often lacks its own identity and is very much US lite (in most, but not all regards). Maybe I just feel this way to make myself feel better about the situation :oops:

    Of course, if I'm to play devil's advocate (against myself)...

    Well I still make the comment that the showrunner probably thought Robin Hood was an American thing. Just because it's set in England, they speak with an English accent and there is a King and Prince...of England! I also stand by the idea that people are getting dumber.

    In defense of Robyn Hood, the original Robin Hood is in the public domain. There are many versions of Robin Hood out there and some of them are quite dumb.

    Robyn Hood is probably the dumbest one, but not by a wide margin. I vaguely remember seeing a show or movie where evil space aliens invaded Sherwood Forest forcing Robin Hood and the Sheriff of Nottingham to join forces temporarily.

    I believe Marvel Studios/Disney is doing damage control. By projecting a $100 million loss, they can claim "victory" when they only suffer a $50 million loss.

    I made up the two numbers, but you get the idea. They are strategically lowering expectations.

    The real numbers are internal since Disney and other big studios have become fairly opaque with showing how much things really cost.

    EDIT: Clownfish TV half-jokingly refuted the statement that the Hollywood strikes will hurt this movie. If Brie Larson is not allowed to speak about her movie, this can only help the box office because the studio loses money whenever the actress says something dumb.

    Also, it appears Disney adjusted the release date for after their next earnings call. SNEEEEAAKKKY

    The Hollywood strikes showed a lot of people how little they are affected by a small group of people who are distributors of propaganda. I say this knowing it is purely a small group of people I've interacted with. By the end of the strike no on really cared. The longer it went on and the loud mouths kept yapping about being victims any sympathy was slowly drained away. Do I feel bad for low level workers who are taken advantage of? Yes. Those of course weren't the people we heard from.

    With all the reshoots and delays, we knew Captain Marvel 2 would flop a long time ago. This is old news.

    I meant in terms of your little contest of being the first to post the newest Critical Drinker video.

    Admittedly, I've been so busy with delightful hobby things I let my hobby of competing with you fall off.

    Yes

    The latter, though I did start organizing my models and painting supplies a bit better.

    You're not alone in this, I also blame America for the rise of wokeism, because of course that's where it originated.

    Indeed I blame America for everything that's caused the West to decline, because these things happened after the US rose to power (or rather, stole power and wealth from the European nations) at the end of the Second World War - the so-called 'Sexual Revolution', the rise of 'celeb culture', Ferengi-level capitalism, supercorporations, the decline of quality in art, music and TV. All of it rose principally in the US and spread through its bullying influence into the countries it had colonised during the latter half of the 20th Century with its military bases and garrisons of troops (which are still there today to some degree).

    The crazy thing over here in Britain is we have our own identity, yet so many people here are deluded in thinking American language, attitudes, spelling and media are somehow better, probably all through a bigger delusion that the US is 'cool' and 'trendy', that Britain is supposedly 'broken' as so many people in our media are trying to promote, and that our own far more sophisticated culture is 'old-fashioned' and 'dull'. Indeed it's an abomination that where once my country was renowned as a land of dignified and refined gentlemen and ladies, it is now more well known for the filthy 'chav' culture adopted by societal dregs through influence perpetrated by American rap and street culture.

    With regards to Canada, I am surprised to be honest that it has become so Americanised - given that Britain helped fight to protect it against American invasion during the War of 1812 and Canada fought so valiantly with Britain and the rest of the Commonwealth against tyranny for all of both World Wars, one would think it would be happy to not be part of the US (and not be under Trump or Biden :p) and thus try to preserve a distinct, non-Americanised culture.

    [​IMG]

    Of course it is my own people who are the fools for following barbarian views and attitudes... but I am not one of them, and I will not follow them. I will not be a pathetic naysayer or Americanist as so many people in my country are.

    And of course that goes for all of us, we shall not follow the wokist regime that is trying to take over each of our countries! Each of us has used our own mind to realise the falsehoods of the woke community, and while we each live and breathe, we shall be pockets of anti-woke resistance that deny them money and support.
