The Johnny cash one, lol.

If we don’t start taking historical attitudes and dichotomous natures into context we’re not going to have any literature/figures/etc left. In other news, the black market of entertainment is about to get a lot more interesting!

I was thinking about digital media in reference to HBO pulling CK's stuff from their streaming. It makes me a little uncomfortable that in the future, someone does something shitty, and their entire body of work is just erased from the memory of man. We're not there, but I don't like that look.

[Satsuki]

I agree, wholeheartedly.

You’re clearly not a good Pogressive, you predator enabling, racist, sexist, Nazi scum!

[Fe 26]

Maybe.

You can get so demanding with this stuff that it becomes tiresome to the people you want to win over and it becomes easier and some how moderate to be a nazi.

I can't stand what Icarus described but I'll never be a Nazi. Nazis are always going to be Bad People™ and the presence of these new Bad People™ doesn't change that.

EDIT: Netflix changed the photos for all of the House of Cards episodes to show Robin Wright instead of Spacey.

It’s a form of sterilization. You have to separate the person from the art. Unless you want us all listening to shitty Muzak.

The next Nazis most likely won’t be Nazis.

It's like when Chris Benoit murdered his wife and kid and the WWE pretty much erased his existence afterwards. I'm not really sure what the best way to handle a situation like that is.

They should have just updated his nickname to Chris "The Family Annihilator" Benoit and called it a day.

I don't think you have to go out of your way to showcase Benoit... but like... if he's on a card or something then so be it. That happened. At the time he was a pretty awesome wrestler.
