I’m sure you are right. That seems like a messaging problem.
But this largely makes sense if those other countries didn’t have tariffs on the US to start with. But they do have tariffs and thus it comes across to me as rather hypocritical (ie fuck you for doing the very thing we do).
What are facts? I’m serious. Who gets to determine what is factual? Haniana believes the media doesn’t lie because in the end he accepts that they by and large get to determine what is factual. This position is prima facie absurd and therefore Haniana is absurd.
Zegler has a weird chin and sometimes looks, for lack of a better word, a little retarded.
Yeah true. Problem for them is people just don’t like the paradigmatic young woman of the Modern Audience.
Care to expand on the different axes?
The original of course didn’t shy away from beauty being good. But to your point vanity was bad. Yes Snow White was fair but also good hearted — she wasn’t consumed by her fairness. She inspired everyone around her to be a better person. She didn’t need to be a girlboss; the original Snow White was the paradigmatic young woman — fair, looking forward to building a family, kind, nurturing, and inspiring others to be better.
The modern iteration is…an activist
And the Valar always made claims about not doing something until they did.
Zegler isn’t ugly but next to Gadot Zegler looks like a soft 6. Relative casting matters.
In short, the problems from Snow White are:
- It tells a story most people won’t like
- It doesn’t execute that story very well
- Live action remakes are tired by this point.
- Bad PR as the lead actress trashed the beloved source material and attacked a decent chunk of the audience.
Fair. I read “it” as meaning stories that avoided saving the world whereas OP likely meant stories it to mean stories that focused on saving the world.
Funny enough if you look at the totality of middle earth stories even if Sauron won it wouldn’t be lights out. Morgoth won at one point and the valar intervened.
Isn’t LOTR kind of saving the world? The whole theory is that if Sauron gets the ring, it’s over for the free people of Middle Earth.
Your theory doesn’t make sense. This was an all stock deal. It shouldn’t give liquidity to Musk.
History. Red tribe loves studying history.
Sure but the idea is in the context of “men and women are equally strong” which even those tropes suggest is not true (because of course it isn’t true)
Why the only time? First you can always go back. Second, maybe getting laid will inspire you to get laid without paying for it
But isn’t the trope accepting that the smaller guy can’t physically compete so he has to figure out another way (eg out smart his opponent)?
Depends on how big your bank roll is
I guess — never found those stories reasonable but then again I played sports.
Take for example “Biden was once competent.” Famously Obama said don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to fuck things. Has Biden been right about literally anything in FP for years?
The initial post was pure aesthetic (ie Biden, a long time Washington guy, is “very serious” and therefore competent).
So was the above post.

Yeah I just don’t know how people can look at men and women and think “physically pretty similar.”
Sure it’s possible. But given his general history not sure that’s the most reasonable interpretation
It was reckless. There should be some internal accounting. But the details aren’t as bad as what JG intimated and the timing was shortly before the mission started.
This is still a black eye but not as bad as some thought.

I don’t know. Competitive news environment? But going to ancient sources of wisdom I need to know that I don’t know. That is, I need to know the media is wrong. I don’t need a solution. Because it is better to know you know nothing as opposed to now things that just ain’t so.
