He was an "unaccompanied alien child." In the real world, the outcome (adopted by a family in the United States) would have probably been the same.
Actually, the interesting thing about Kal-El is, given that he was sent to Earth by his biological parents, they would be the ones who broke immigration law, and as a baby, he would be placed in a foster home and/or adopted. In other words, the same result.
This series introduced two intriguing villains to the MCU: The Hood, and Ironheart. Well done, Marvel.
I'm now watching episode 4, and I'm confused about a lot of things as well, including: in front of LOTS of witnesses, the rogue suit of armor shows up, Riri gets into it, and her mom yells "Riri" as she flies off. Won't someone call the police and turn her in?
What about the first episode has proven confusing?
1. I'm glad you are loving it. 2. I'm curious to see how the second half of the series addresses the choices Riri made in first half of the series. 3. IMO, a TV series based upon a comic book character, shouldn't need a viewer to have read about the character before.
I share your heartfelt prayers. But it's not about President Biden's "weakness". It's about how people around Pres. Biden, including VP Harris, allowed a man not fit to serve, to serve as President. That was an assault on the Constitution that needs to be investigated and prosecuted.
Thanks! I will note this source doesn't mention a Tesla at all. "the department has reviewed video but has not yet determined the type of vehicle in which the fire began."
Who are those sources, please, as you said, you can't make this up.
"There's only so much people can do without resorting to toppling the government itself." Excellent. You don't defeat fascism by saying bad things about it, or by working with it, or by normalizing it. And in the case of the U.S., we peacefully handed the power over.
Thank you. However, I'm not considering the "apathetic" "Average Joe". I'm asking, why all the non-apathetic people, the millions of them, who recognized the current administration as fascist, why did they allow them to take control? Why didn't they stop them?
That's a reason for people to vote for fascism. I'm asking the people who are not fascists, why were the fascists ever allowed to enter office and take control?
Well, there you go. However, if that is the case, elections aren't the solution.
And, it's quite likely, there are people who "elect Trump and others" for reasons other than the two you listed.
Were Nazis in WWII defeated by protests? Why are we letting these Nazis and fascists get into office in the first place?
You have my vote
Imagine if we hadn't peacefully transferred power to a dictatorship.
I can believe there are millions of people who struggle with empathy.
well, when I see a quote, I foolishly still think it's a quote, not "pretty close." Plus the "empathy" statement requires context. But I appreciate your clarification. More information always helps me understand other points of view.
Nice quotes! Would be better if he actually said either quote.
It's a shame the millionaires and billionaires in both major political parties, including hers, aren't interested in any of that.
Remind me again why we peacefully transferred power to Nazis.
