Cranks up Lil' Debbie's "Michelle Obama" at full volume.
The entire Trump family is full of fraudulent nutjobs.
Heh. Okay. Nice job pulling context and making it look extreme.
For everyone else, the video has actual objectives for BLM. Among other interesting things. Some are so quick to lump things in with "conspiracy" when they get a little uncomfortable.

Gotta grab that hd version..love that show.
People confuse enjoyable with good. A lot of good things are enjoyable, a lot of enjoyable things are good. But some times the streams don't cross.
I love the Critters movies, I will ride for them till the end of time. But are they good? Hell no, they are enjoyable.
Whiplash is a good movie, but i found it boring as hell. As I do 99 percent of oscarbait.
Pulling context my ass, the whole interview is like that, a bunch of hotep believing black people came from the moon bullshit, with anti LGBT and anti feminist messages sprinkled in. That's just as much as I wanted to bother typing out word for word to get my point across.
Did he mention how black women shouldn't get periods? I love Hotep biology

Totally.
My horror movie love is literally all about enjoyable not being reliant on good
I have one rule for movies/TV, does it bore me? If the answer is no I'm enjoying it on some degree. Life is too short to care only about "good"

Don't let the seeds of Yakub tell you how your earholes are supposed to be shaped. The original Asiatic black man had slits for ear holes so you could hear behind you!
EDIT: I know way too much 5%, hotep shit for my own good.
What even more funny that the crowd was basically cheering for a speech from Michelle.
Hindsight!
Same here. Cube did an alright job, but Vinn is built for action movies.

Ghostbusters was probably enjoyable. I don't give a fuck, mostly, to try and parse this shit out. I had fun watching it.

Might double feature it with Lights Out on Friday then
*Nods*
Gonna be hard to justify avoiding these
Won't check out much less outside tbh
Curious bout Moana but i'll wait for Malyse's review
Can I just be honest, in a moment of complete pettiness?
I am sitting in my livingroom seriously so happy for Michelle Obama right now.
She has spent the last 8 years seeing her husband picked apart. Her daughters picked apart. And herself picked apart, only guilty of being an intelligent black woman married to the first black president.
And she gets to wake up in the morning to the news that the wife of her biggest detractor is being publicly dragged for stealing HER words.
An amazing gift.

How do you feel about the downplaying from the cable news outlets? Particularly left leaning ones?
Quiet, you!

This is very unCanadian of you..be nice!
What is there to feel? It's the one thing I agree with both Trump and Sanders on. Our national media is despicable garbage. Not a single redeeming thing about cable news. Completely shameful.
I find myself retreating more and more to independent/local news sources.

Agreed. Pretty much been on the same trip. This Trump and "both sides" stuff has been quite mind numbing. Curious if this will just be a non issue by lunch tomorrow..wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.
lol..
Yeah, I'm starting to get pissed at the whole "both sides" nonsense. I mean, this isn't South Park.

I feel the same but simultaneously a bit pissed because I know Michelle worked her ass off more than likely on her speech and that vacant copycat A) already has Trump supporters kneeling at her feet for being a wordsmithing goddess despite the news & B) will probably have this snafu forgotten by the end of the week like all of the Trump family follies due to such flaccid coverage by mainstream news.
Any recommendations?
Stop reaching. There was none of that. Nothing anti anyone in the interview. You can put in that context if you'd like.
There's some truth to what you're saying, I'm typically not a big fan of Umar Johnson, but I noticed in this interview he put a lot of his usual pan-africanism talk to the side and spoke something that he's probably been holding in for a while, directly to African Americans.
There was nothing extreme, hateful or anti anything in this interview, you're putting your own negative spin on his words.

Man, I like pulling people's chains but I hate joking around or making jokes. Because inevitably people assume I'm always joking even when I'm serious, and then they decide I'm a moron. But if I don't joke people tell me I'm too serious or I'm boring. Can't win.

That might be fun, but I think I'd just end up jumping from one negative reaction to another. Or look crazy. I might just have to figure out which one is less bad and stick with it: stupid or boring.

I can't look at that right now. I just can't. Apparently she left Twitter? Fuck the people that went after her. I hope maggots fuck their brains. In fact, think of the worst thing that could happen to someone you would never repeat, and I hope that happens to them.

Like I said in that topic, I hope the people making her life hell right now spend the rest of their lives progressively even more pathetic and miserable than they already are.
