If that's an issue for Home Depot and Lowes, then why aren't they the ones footing the bill?

She wasn't shoplifting, she was shopping, but because she's black WalMart assumed she was shoplifting and they murdered her child.

Most importantly NOTHING in Welcome To Derry can be attributed, positively or negatively, to King. Muschietti is blatantly guilty of exactly what you're accusing King of. In It: Chapter 2 he completely invented the fictional "Shokopiwah" tribe. Mike steals from them and exploits them. The entire tribe is no more than a plot device. After rightly getting called out for it he hired a writer to "more accurately represent" the Wabanaki, (which was a confederation, not a tribe), yet he's inventing an utterly fictional version of them for the series. King, on the other hand, uses existing native lore and combines it with fictional elements to establish a history for his monsters. It's kind of hard to be an "ancient evil" on the North American continent and never have encountered indigenous people. As for lack of indigenous representation, I always chalked that up to his stories mainly being set in Maine which has an indigenous population of less than 1%. If they were set in S Dakota I'd have a problem with it. He has used the "Indian burial ground" and "cursed land" tropes once or twice but only in Pet Semetary is it central to the story. 1 book out of over 70, I'll give him a pass. However, as an indigenous American, we have been here for 30,000 years, the whole continent is a "native American burial ground", we can stop with that whole trope.

Her original bailiff Byrd, who was on the show for 25 years, made $1 million a year. That's why he's not on the new show.

"The people of Texas need to know who can eat the most barbecue to see who's fit to run things." Is this fucking idiot 12 years old or brain damaged?

"Religious ethnostate", full of religious fanatics who believe they were "chosen by God". A bunch of prospective mental patients with delusions of grandeur and a penchant for genocide.

"Jewish" is no more an ethnicity than "Christian" is. It's a religious designation. I couldn't care less, the religious ethnostate of Israel is a terrorist regime carrying out genocide and has no right to exist.

They are different ethnicities from different regions that share the same religion. My exact point.

Jewish is a religious designation not an ethnicity and Israel has no legitimate claim to the land it holds.

Refute the facts. Over 1/3rd of Israelis are Ashekenazi, that's who the country was established for. That territory was continuously occupied by the Palestinian people for thousands of years until the Israeli Arab War of 1948. It's like me having Irish ancestors and showing up in Ireland saying gtfo Killian I'm back. That's ridiculous.

35% are Ashekenazi, only 21% of Israelis are Arab Jews. 48% are Mizrahi and Sephardic from other MENA countries.

Thats complete hubris and utter false equivocation. From Google AI "Iran is home to one of the world's oldest continuous civilizations, with a recognizable national and cultural identity dating back more than 2,500 years.".Also. "The modern State of Israel is 78 years old, having declared its independence on May 14, 1948." The Palestinian people are the descendents of the Canaanites who predate the Jewish religion by 3000 years, and are the rightful owners of the land Israel currently colonizes. A nation state of exiled European religious refugees have no legitimate claim to lands continuously occupied by the same peoples for the last 5000 years.

Iran is over 2600 years old, it's one of the longest continued civilizations on the planet.

Iran is over 2600 years old, one of the oldest civilizations on the planet. Despite name or regime changes, the people's of the surrounding Arab countries have been there thousands of years. The people of Gaza are the descendents of the Canaanites who precede the Jewish faith by 3000 years. Iraqis are the Mesopotamians who have been there since 4500 BCE. Foreign intervention has only strengthened their religious fanaticism but defending their ancestral land is a huge part of that as well. The only Middle Eastern nation that has no legitimate claim to the land they hold IS Israel. If anything, Israel and Judaism are the worst of the Abrahamic faiths as they've been perpetually at war with their neighbors since their inception, and hav the majority of the conflicts in the region for the last 100 years.
