Given how Americans react to British accents, Black British conservative grifter is free real-estate in the US media landscape that has inexplicably gone unfilled.
white conservatives *love* Black people who validate them, both as political tools and because almost every white person in America wants Black people to tell them they're cool.

What the hell is going on in the UK?
You might think from the headline that this is a story about a trans kid suffering medical consequences from a large drug dose but nope! It is just an interview with an estranged father who is angry that his child happily transitioned.

My take on this is downstream of my veiw that there's no such thing as objective quality in art, just a bunch of idiosyncratic tastes that can be more or less effectively served. When people say that movies have gotten worse, they mostly mean they've gotten more homogeneous and boring.
Anyone who thinks that movies nowadays aren’t as good as they used to be should watch this - trailers of the most aired movies on HBO in the 1980s.

There’s always been crappy movies, you just forgot all those.

Not only is this true, the European far-right also plays basically the same role is Russian/Soviet foreign policy as the Communist parties used to.

I'm absolutely shocked that someone who was part of a CIA backed paramilitary unit would be some kind of violent psycho.

Okay, maybe "shocked" is too strong a word....

This is so so disturbing. Trump is now pardoning January 6th rioters for unrelated crimes, just to reward them for their violence to keep him in power.

The Republican Party is in the full time business of endorsing and incentivizing political violence. So scary.
