They say “0 firecrackers shot at the police” as if it’s a good thing

It’s almost as though broad outbreak measures are effective against a equally broad spectrum of maladies

Yeah, that’s the part that sits badly about this whole angle to me. What, I owe a bunch of completely detached motherfuckers success? They sure seem like they’re barely bothering to show up. If I was halfassing my job this bad i’d’ve been fired a year ago.

I hate the whole “Oh if you do that you’ll be just like them” thing. If that’s the case then I think I can I can live with it quite comfortably actually

Doing something like that’s no small commitment, that’s for sure.

The whole respectability politics thing makes me actively want what’s worst for the US and Americans at large sometimes. What, everyone else get to be boorish shitheads and i can’t even fling a turd or two back at them?

It’s not even always a reading comprehension failure, sometimes they realize the real intent and just kind of do what they want with the material regardless. Authorial intent doesn’t mean dick much of the time. Hell, when John Carpenter straight up said They Live wasn’t about The Jews on Twitter a few years ago, his replies immediately ended up full of people who just kind of said it was anyways
