Your inability to explain things is not the benchmark for judging them, fortunately.
I guess the movie is for people who were better educated, less ignorant and less fragile than you.
Donald Trump boasts about grabbing women's pussies and kissing them without asking.
It is notoriously difficult to get any criminal conviction for sexual assault. That's what it tells me.
The fact remains that Trump was successfully sued.
And the fact remains that Trump committed felony fraud to cover up a hush money payment masquerading as "legal expenses".
Nobody mentioned murder. Does a candidate like Trump need to be convicted of murder before you would reconsider voting for them or something? Is that your excuse? That he hasn't been convicted of killing someone? That's even more pathetic.
And your justification for this? The sex offending convicted fraudster told that the opposition are worse than he is "trust me". It would be hilarious if it wasn't so sad.
I don't give a shit when, where or why Biden ran. I don't support him. I'm not even American. Nevertheless, as just about every other sane fucker on the planet who doesn't live in a banana republic knows well and can see, there are a lot of pathetic Americans who are bending over backwards to simp for a fucking admitted sex offender and convicted felon.
WTF are you talking about? When did I give support to anyone? Wtf guy are you talking about? If you are talking about Biden (hasn't been sued by anyone for sexual assault, like Trump has, successfully, you do know he wasn't even running, don't you?
It's frankly fucking pathetic that you're providing excuses at all for someone who is a convicted felon, and getting upset that Patton Oswalt won't be friends with people who do the same. That is some "participation medal" bullshit. Grow a fucking pair.
Yeah the people who don't wish the successfully sued rapist with felony fraud convictions in the Whitehouse are the delusional ones.
No parent in that consultation raised the topic of Star Wars VI's rating.
The new guidelines are a reflection of the BBFC managing their image and their brand etc in response to that consultation. And the existing rating for one of the Star Wars films was considered untenable in that context.
Since there is virtually no legends of parents chagrined at the BBFC for not slapping a PG rating on the first three Star Wars films these past forty years, it is reaching to conclude that the new rating is the result of parent consultation.
Like many revised ratings, they are the result of the BBFC managing its own image. In 1977, the BBFC took it upon themselves to assure parents that Star Wars was immune from the mid 70s malaise and cynicism. This was a simplistically moral tale without attitude. And was actually no more violent that what kids were being exposed to on TV anyway. So they gave it a U rating to more or less encourage parents to let their children see it. Clearly they no longer feel the need to give parents that kind of encouragement. Plus the reality that parents don't really get themselves too mired in the nuances of a U and a PG lead them to give it the rating it arguably always deserved.
If anything, their feedback from parents probably just amounted to highlighting to them that if Star Wars was brand new they would be giving it a PG.
It also makes the Star Wars saga look less conspicuously like one third of it is intended for a different audience from the other two thirds, some of which is actually age restricted.
That really only has genuine practical implications for explicit, age restriction type ratings.
Pause or no pause. Practically no parent is claiming, in hindsight, they would not have let their child see something that was rated U if it had been rated PG instead except to manage their own regret. A PG rating, at best, somewhat reduces the parent's ability to delegate most of the blame for their feelings of regret to the BBFC.
Realistically, how many parents do you think preview PG rated material before letting their children watch it?
It's universally acknowledged that the general public treat ratings as an excuse NOT to be wary of a film's contents or subject matter. And all parents have varying ideas of what their children can see at what age.
I happen to know what kind of people engage with the BBFC's consultations. Film and home video nerds who argue the toss over what film from nineteen canteen should be an 18 instead of a PG today because a movie made today with a kid throwing a brick through a window would most likely be in the category etc. All sorts of nitpicky and proprietary logic is imposed. Which just illustrates what a morass trying to classify films is, with all sorts of different motives and emphases, including current trends, having to be considered.
How exactly could a democrat govt dictate that you must compete with anyone about anything? You are not obligated to compete at all.
Any parent blithely letting their under 4year old kids watch something called Star WARS in the belief that it is without anything they might not wish their pre-school infant to see is a moron.
Nobody seriously gives a fuck if something is a PG or a U. Except for nerds and other twits who unashamedly do both the hand wringing "think of the children" schtick and also the "woke radicals are ruining everything" bullshit.
So what?
You don't have to be friends with people you don't agree with either.
Just because someone likes the same sports team as you doesn't make them your friend or someone you should remain friends with after you learn that they they give their support to a rapist and felon etc.
Just goes to show how fragile some folk are that they want people to be their friends while telling them "Fuck your freedom."
What the fuck are you talking about? Most of the time, we make friends with people because they seem to think the same as us.
No cunt asked you.
Bull
Trump had no intention to do any of the things he promised. He had no expectations of winning in 2016.
The thorn stuff is a load of crap.
What a pile of crap. It was criminals and defeated enemies who were sacrificed. Never "one from each tribe".
Are the illegals getting paid to pick the crops or are they claiming social security? Make your mind up.
Can you imagine how much more expensive groceries would be if they weren't picking the crops?
