I'm familiar enough with the "ambiguously brown" trope in animated media (Lucia from Devil May Cry, Yoruichi and Harribel from Bleach easily come to mind) but I don't understand how anyone could look at Tanya in any of her appearances and see anything other than a black woman. I at least understand the confusion with Jade given that how dark she was sort of varied in earlier games (and even then, Deception and onwards settled on black).Some people are just really that stupid and ignorant. They're not even worth freaking out. Let them cry for their own stupidity.
A decade later these fools learn nothing, and live in their own pathetic pretend worlds. Remember this from 2012?

Yeh and not everyone criticising The Sound of Freedom is doing so in good faith either.You seem to have trouble grasping this little thing called nuance.
Not everyone who criticized the CCP did so in good faith. That is why some of them were called racist and others who did have more understandable and justified criticisms were not.
Yes, if other "Big issue films" are fine to exist I see no reason this one shouldn't also be allowed. I mean the entire hate for the film seems to stem from the perceived audience the film has got similar to the people still mad about The Snydercut.Thanks for stating the obvious Holmes. Tell me, do you have an actual reason for defending this film other than people on the left being against it?
Well that's your issue for failing to be able to follow a discussion based on a claim you initially made. Not me problem here.Yeah I still don't know what you're babbling about.

A family from Florida has been convicted of selling a toxic bleach solution as a "miracle" medical cure in a scheme first exposed by Insider.
Mark Grenon, 65, and his sons, 37-year-old Jonathan, 35-year-old Joseph, and 29-year-old Jordan were convicted by a federal jury in Miami on charges of conspiring to defraud the United States and delivering misbranded drugs, The Miami Herald reported.
Prosecutors said the family sold "Miracle Mineral Solution" through their Genesis II church.
In online videos, seminars, and on their website, the Grenons advocated drinking sodium chlorite diluted with a household acid, such as lemon juice, thus creating chlorine dioxide, a powerful industrial bleach used to treat wood products.
The substance is highly dangerous to consume, and can cause severe vomiting, severe diarrhea, life-threatening low blood pressure caused by dehydration, and acute liver failure, says the US Food and Drugs Administration. US officials in legal documents said the bleach had been linked to seven deaths in the US.
The bleach solution was described as targeting ailments and conditions, including autism, cancer, and COVID-19.
Grenon and his sons face up to five years in prison and will be sentenced on October 6.
Jonathan and Jordan were also convicted of ignoring a 2020 federal court order to stop selling the substance, The Associated Press said. Those same charges were dropped against Mark and Joseph as a condition of their extradition from Colombia to face charges, the outlet said.
Insider in 2019 reported that Grenon was falsely marketing the bleach as a miracle cure on YouTube, where his videos were racking up thousands of views despite breaching platform rules against promoting dangerous or fake cures.
Grenon was one of the most prominent members of the so-called Genesis II church, whose core claim was that chlorine dioxide had miraculous curative powers. In an interview with federal prosecutors in 2021, Grenon admitted that the church was a way of dodging legal repercussions for selling the bleach.
When the COVID-19 pandemic swept the world in 2020, the Genesis II church focused its efforts on marketing the bleach as a cure for the disease. According to legal documents, the Grenons earnt more than $1 million from selling the product.
Mark and Joseph Grenon were arrested in Colombia in 2020, and extradited to the US to face criminal charges. Jonathan and Jordan Grenon were arrested in Bradenton, Florida, the prosecutors say.
The Miami Herald reported that Grenon and his sons had chosen to defend themselves during their two-day trial, but opted to remain silent. Joseph Grenon told the outlet that they will be appealing the conviction.

Lucia at least has the excuse of being a cloned demon and created in area where a population of dark skinned people exists all over with different religions, ethnicities', and cultural backgrounds.I'm familiar enough with the "ambiguously brown" trope in animated media (Lucia from Devil May Cry, Yoruichi and Harribel from Bleach easily come to mind) but I don't understand how anyone could look at Tanya in any of her appearances and see anything other than a black woman.
Idiots like that want to pretend and shocked, or only freak out when its "officially stated" or shown. Like I said before, racist dumbasses that like to block out obvious information for their own comfort and pathetic views, until it is obviously already in front of them.I don't understand how anyone could look at Tanya in any of her appearances and see anything other than a black woman.
Speaking of Jade, I always assumed she'd be black since I was a kid. When MK: Annihilation came out, I asked "why is she Asian?". The actress did her part, and looks hot, but that did bother me at the time. By the time I realized how bad Annihilation was around 13 years old, the more I realized all black actresses dodged a big bullet there. I am grateful for that.at least understand the confusion with Jade given that how dark she was sort of varied in earlier games (and even then, Deception and onwards settled on black).
Targets autism, cancer and covid. Cancer and covid are things that can kill you, so it kinda makes sense to risk your life taking weird drugs in the hope that it'll save you. But risking your life to try to cure autism...or more likely risking someone else's life to try and cure their autism really gets my goat.There's more out there (including an influencer called Jordan Sather) who evade justice still, but this is positive start. Conspirituality crazies I know in real life (including family members, in UK) have fallen for this crap too, it isn't some isolated idiocy, hasn't been for some while, and then COVID gave all the grifters a wave to coast on even higher.

Yeah I'm with Beau on this one, that seems pretty far-fetched. If its true, that's like Mission Impossible levels of espionage, but there's gonna have to be some pretty substantial proof.In a story so hard to believe, one of those fake electors from Michigan is claiming that she signed in to a GOP delegates meeting and this signature was used to turn her into a fake elector
Doing stuff like trying to cheat an election by as obvious a technique as signing up as a fraudulent elector takes a certain type of crazy. These guys are therefore likely to look at crazy, feeble defences.Yeah I'm with Beau on this one, that seems pretty far-fetched.

I think this only bans medical students. Normal doctors are fine and usually consent is presumed if you are unconscious.... as long as the treatment is appropriateOn one hand I can see reasoning for the bill to prevent abuse.
On the other if I'm unconscious from a damaged pelvis, fucking examine me, find if there's any internal bleeding I'd rather have people violate my supposed privacy then just let me slowly die in the hopes I'd wake up to consent.
Most of the electors were in their 60 and 70s. It's possibly similar to scam as they usually target older peopleDoing stuff like trying to cheat an election by as obvious a technique as signing up as a fraudulent elector takes a certain type of crazy. These guys are therefore likely to look at crazy, feeble defences.
I may feel a little sorry for them in ways, because they will be to some degree victims of exploitation by much smarter and more cynical people who got a load of saps to put themselves in the firing line.
Yeah, it's 100% "well, we have an unconscious patient and some medical students, so let's let them root around and see what they can learn" being banned. Any *actual* problems are already covered under Implied Consent.I think this only bans medical students.

Look one thing we know about these people is that they love to misunderstand and misrepresent Orwell in these discussions. So it is going to be at least a little funny when they invoke his work to defend Spanish Fascists specifically.Great news for trashiest, gamergatest and most devout members of this forum : the extreme-right might come back in Spain this sunday, 50 years after the dictator Franco. The best, desantis-shaped extreme-right : the religiously bigoted one. Already promising zero compromises towards the myth of gender violence, the myth of climate change (great timing there, just for that fascists are exactly what the world needs these days), and the myth of sexual dimorphism.
So you may soon get some new best friends and models to replace the now vaguely awkward Putin.
As someone whose grandpa came over on a boat from Spain to New York and had my dad as an anchor baby, I can say this with utmost confidence. We Spanish are really fucking stupid and are way way waaaaayyyy too obsessed with hyper masculinity, and oddly super anti-gay. Like its weird, what you consider like super gay, the Spanish see as super masculine and straight. And its like nah bro, that's just gay. Ya'll just gay.Great news for trashiest, gamergatest and most devout members of this forum : the extreme-right might come back in Spain this sunday, 50 years after the dictator Franco.

As someone who used to do that, and still is pissed off about the lack of character creation in games for making good-looking male or female characters.
