re: #349 mmmirele

I left my brother (yes, dude with the recently acquired Trump-Pence bumper sticker) watching Black Panther. He’d also put it on record to watch again. (He’d invited me over to dinner.) I can’t help but hope something gets through to him.

///Important topics of conversation to watch out for…

1: No you’re not supposed to feel sympathy for the guy with an artificial hand…

2: No the film is not anti-US because the villain was trained by US special forces.

3: No the villain did have a point that Wakanada was doing something wrong by simply sitting on all of its power rather than risking taking any actions that might help other people who are suffering.

4: Yes, “But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers” was aimed at exactly who you think it was.
