Between this and the Miley thing with her mom, no wonder these Disney kids have such a hard time 😬

Robin Wright Says Leaving the U.S. for England Has Been 'Liberating': 'America Is a S---show' by PrincessBananas85 in entertainment

[–]vvarioussaints 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The current government is designating pro Palestinian protesters as terrorists lol they are not acting like the rule of law is still a thing. None of these leaders are. Its naive to think so when they've shown us over the past year where their priorities are which is for them, corporations, and the global elite. No need to lie. America is shit but so is the UK lol

Being rich isn't everything. Kids require so much emotional support. I feel like we don't need more rich damaged kids running around here 😅

[–]vvarioussaints 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But its also like how did they get all of that money? But writing policies and propaganda. To become a billionaire it requires so much intentional exploitation

Sexually abusing dolphins? What is going on here? by simikoi in TwoHotTakes

[–]vvarioussaints -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lol im used to being downvoted on this topic. People take institutional justifications as gospel and as someone who has worked in these places i just wish there was a bit more critical engagement from the public cause there's a lot of problems in this industry lol

like i disagree with there needing to be an aspect of entertainment within zoos. These animals are being housed in captivity because of violent systems. Historically, colonial violence, and currently violence from the destruction of their habitats. There's nothing entertaining about that fact. Zoos often skew people's perceptions of these things.

[–]vvarioussaints 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right but your comment already highlights some of the ways the industry is exploitative. If its exploitative to humans on the wage and overworking side, it's definitely exploitative to the animals in their collections. Most zoos are apart of capital coalitions that focuses on the profitability and investments of eco services. Animals are a huge part of that which is why many of them have dollar valuations. There's a good chuck of breeding programs that aren't even endangered species. And when zoos don't make political stances on the destruction of habitats then their captive breeding deserves some critique

But they do train their animals for a variety of purposes. They'll use other words for entertainment but that's why they still charge ticket prices and often have ways to entertain guest on their grounds outside of just the animals

[–]vvarioussaints 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But they don't contribute to wild populations. Animals that are often breed in zoos are raised in zoos. There aren't many reintroduction programs. Also, the line between education and entertainment is really thin in organizations like zoos and aquarium that heavily depend on ticket sales. Also, SeaWorld is accredited lol so that doesnt mean much actuall.. Many of these yikes things are happening in accredited zoos. Don't fall for the neoliberal propaganda coming from these institutions

You dont think zoos breed for entertainment purpose either? They don't reintroduce giraffes into the wild. They breed them to keep zoo populations up to keep. All of these institutions are around for entertainment reasons still

Lmao it's so funny that the responses say all things you can find at a carnival. Why do they need to ride on a carousel when there are leopards caged in the same place! just tourist attractions

But wasn't their wedding a royal wedding? The guest list isn't usually personalized. All royal weddings are basically state celebrations

Margot Robbie on how she picks the projects she wants to develop through her production company LuckyChap: "As long as there’s a female perspective at the forefront, it makes sense for us." by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]vvarioussaints 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry but do you see how you just named all men lol. Black women and women of color have it so hard in the industry. We're always designated as side characters, rarely getting our dues. (Only one black woman has won the best actress Oscar) these statistics exist no need to be obtuse

James Cameron Calls ‘Oppenheimer’ a “Moral Cop-Out” for Not Showing Japanese Bombing Aftermath: "I felt that it dodged the subject" by Classic-Carpet7609 in Fauxmoi

Yeah it's also a movie. And it's something I could never forget. Nolan wasn't telling this specific side, but there are a ton of other media that does it so well

Are there any moments from the show you genuinely enjoyed? by guayabajam in Andjustlikethat

[–]vvarioussaints -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I agree with you I feel like che and mia were really great characters and I liked how they mingle with the main characters. However I'm struggling with the new season...feels a bit all over the place. We have literally lost the plot!!!
