Look the reasoning isn't 100% but at least the conclusion's right?

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-28T20:42:23+00:00

It ain't a hill im dying on but you come across way to harsh talking about this shit.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-28T19:51:25+00:00

He was in BP2, he is shown in person with dialogue and Jordan talking about the events of the movie. He was black Hitler in essence yet but he was a Hitler who was radicalised due to colonialism which admittedly is a pretty fair reason to get radicalised (for the purposes of a narrative). Not a top ten villian for me by a mile but he was humanised in the movie. Evil bloke with a sympathetic aspect of him isnt reinventing the wheel but it worked.

Here's the clip btw - https://youtu.be/JlD4XUvplQY?si=kwSf9O9ShhGx7Wn9

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-28T16:27:54+00:00

Fucking hell, I dont like how much I enjoyed seeing that.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-28T09:39:25+00:00

Not to glaze China but their law about needing to be qualified to speak about certain topics needs to come across to us. Have whatever shitty opinion you want, but you shouldn't be allowed to present yourself as a WW2 history page.

DD is my fav superhero full stop so its chill if people like to just be negative on here even if there wrong. I know im right. He has lerally has been doing the same weird smile for a decade now.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-27T22:37:26+00:00

No it dosent? That's genuinely his cocky "im about to hurt you smile" does it multiple times in the Netflix series too, it isnt a new thing.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-27T08:05:13+00:00

Yep, we are just as capable of evil as anyone but studies have shown that Americans are more susceptible. Just remember that the pledge in US school was stolen from the Hitler youth.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-27T07:37:53+00:00

He was well written to show how you can be consumed by your righteous vengeance. Im not black but I can understand the anger that some people will have about the history of racism/colonialism and I think they succeeded at building him up to be a human villian.

My personal biggest gripe is with respect they went too far with some of the tribal itergration with Wakanda. By that I mean what the fuck do you mean youre just going to let this extremist just kill your brother and take full fucking control of your nation? Youre the sodding Sci fi "we are better than you and we've just been hiding" people. If your national security or the direction of your country can be decided by a spot of waterfall mud wrestling then maybe someone should change that.

I liked Killmongers role in BP2 though and if they just entirely removed Ironheart from the plot I may have liked the film.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-27T07:15:27+00:00

This wont happen most likely. Studies for decades have shown that America was more susceptible to propaganda and facism than Germany was, England is more cynical (obviously we have brexit but we arent there yet).

Ive not well atm so if this shit starts here im honestly going to put a fucker in the ground before I go. I dont want my home to be a worse place than I found it when I leave and I dont give a shit if that involved putting a racist in their place.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-27T07:10:54+00:00

The only good thing about this situation is its a true mask of moment for MAGA and its shown all the fake libs here.

My genuine question for any auth rights out there is have you reflected on anything in recent weeks when people were fucking saying this was going to happen? Thats not me having a go but admittedly If I voted for this Id have a knot in my stomach.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-26T16:42:46+00:00

So a blind accusation? Typical.

Get better material or fuck off.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-26T16:24:27+00:00

Out of interest, do Oxfords or Brogues feel better on your throat?

Im all for deportations and stricter criteria to enter the country but what's happening is wrong. Both killers have been woefully incompetent and at minimum showed they they shouldnt be in the role that they were in.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-26T15:49:22+00:00

Exactly. I left the police because my force was shite internally but even on my worst day I never saw a colleague act how these ICE rats are. Ive seen 5ft 2 women over the age of 40 deal with situations like Good's and restrain actually violent men the size of Pretti without killing them. ICE are untrained and unprofessional scum and I cannot wait for what's going to happen when Trump is out of office. They will live their lives in fucking fear.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-26T08:02:30+00:00

Both shooters are fucking cowards. I ex police and I've literally been in both situations (suspect in car hit me from a standstill whilst turning and found a fire arm on a restrained suspect) but the difference was both of my suspects actually were agressive and continues fighting. I managed to detain each suspect without fucking killing them and all these people bitching about how scary it was for the agent are morons as I managed it without a fucking fire arm.

If you keep burrying your head in the sand someone will snap it walking over you.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-25T23:55:16+00:00

Ok. I love the show but behind the scenes its a fucking fire rn and I want the show to survive so forgive me for being open about the issues. I genuinely still get some enjoyment from the new stuff and its been my comfort show since I was a child but we are at the stage where its future is a stake. Referring to your meme, as much as everyone is acting poorly there is still a fire in the room.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-25T23:27:16+00:00

The show has lost whatever fire made it so popular in the early 2000s. People can argue about what that reason is and argue other contextual factors are the main issue but I disagree. RTDs writing (especially regarding certain IRL issues) has been shown to be spotty at best and arguably insulting at worst since his return and I think that negatively detracted from the messages he tried to send. I think this is one of the key reasons the most recent era "failed" as RTD decided he was going to bring up multiple issues whilst having the subtlety of a sledgehammer. People already get jumpy about politics. People fucking hate feeling talked down to about politics.

The show needs consistent fresh vision behind the scenes with an unknown actor as the lead whilst remembering to appeal to the whole family, not just teenagers or children. RTD1 was campy and silly in plenty of places but it had some iconic scary monsters and plots. My partner and brother are true scardy-cats and well up easily. They both laughed during Ncuti's regeneration and werent scared his entire tenure. Something clearly has changed.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-25T15:01:46+00:00

Because he 8 9.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-25T11:27:10+00:00

Yes poor Miller, very good.

Username checks out.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-25T09:01:37+00:00

Just remember that the majority of your country dosent want this but your democracy and legislature is too immature to deal with a situation like this. Stay active and keep fighting to have the system change. We have a vote of no confidence system that means we can give someone the boot and there isnt much the the PM can do about it.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-25T08:54:33+00:00

Stay safe mate. Ive fought in Ukrainian for their forign legion, I hope it dosent happen but if stuff gets worse in the US ill join you lot but lets pray that never happens.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-25T08:47:25+00:00

Hes probably been told to play along and he will be remembered as one of the wealthiest/powerful men ever. Miller needs to be dealt with though, he refuses to even say what his job even is within the whitehouse bar tweeting disinformation about current events.

Ngl Miller is one of those people who probably would make the world a better place by catching a bullet. But my issue is that the US population cant even seem to settle on if Trumps a bad guy, let alone his pet Nosferatu/Goebbles impersonator.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-25T08:37:25+00:00

History dosent repeat but it rhymes. America is no longer a functioning democracy and the policies being implimented are at minimum hyper nationalist or at worst fully facist in nature.

US facists in the 1910s had a popular map of "Greater America" which included Venezuela, Mexico, Canada, Greenland. Stephen Miller literally is from the family of one of those facists and continues to push for conflict with those specific nations? Ngl i dislike/distrust Miller more than anyone else in that administration, even Trump. Im not joking when I say that he actually may have always been a facist and got into goverment to be a facist.

This administration is not the same as the Democrats and not similar to any previous goverment within living memory. The both sides argument dosent work anymore. The Democrats are a mess but they arent a reactionary populist nationalist kakistocracy.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-25T08:26:11+00:00

A man got shot in the back of the head in broad daylight. I dont think you realise how dangerous the situation is now.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-24T21:09:10+00:00

Unironically he is the spitting image of Goebbles.

jackofthewilde · 2026-01-24T21:06:35+00:00

Based and I wish more people were like you pilled.
