This would be like George Takei joining ice. After what the US government did to the Japanese American community, you’d think a guy who is of Japanese descent would be more self aware about immigrants
Not really. Takei was in the camps personally and as such has spent a lot of time using his fame to ensure they aren't forgotten.
Japanese Americans have become ordinary Americans, and so like the Irish Americans, Italian Americans, German Americans, and sometimes even Latino Americans many have learned to sing along with the Anglo Americans as they demand that immigrants get out.

Or like how there is a small but fast-growing nationalist far-right party in Japan right now, that is slowly gaining political power in the government as the long-standing traditional conservative party falls out of favor with the people.
You would think the Japanese of all people would understand the dangers of becoming nationalistic and imperialistic again.
Wait japan has another nationalist party now? The LDP is right wing and nationalist and has been in power for all but 6 years since the mid 50s

Not just a racist but, but one who actually wants to wear the red armband and get one of those cool hats with the skull. An active racist who wants to personally hurt and abuse people of colour
I always assumed he had some Hispanic heritage so I'm surprised this is the thing.
I guess it's like homophobia

That second photo has the same energy as the one of the rock with a turtleneck and a Fanny pack.
Sure does. Good call.

I first learned he was a bigot when he got fired from super girl, a show with a cast full of women and trans people. Because he was an insufferable shithead on the set and everyone hated him
Given today's news, that doesn't surprise me. Oh well.

we have a few redhats in our town who every political event throw their trump flags on their lifted dualies and roll coal all over town. I will admit I've been tempted to join ice and give them a good toss, as what's good for the goose is good for the gander, but the extent of me actually hurting people is writing slanderous folk songs about their dangles. Like, that is actually fun and feels good on the soul.
Late one night, slide under a truck, with a #3 drill bit, pop a hole in the muffler. Screw in a zerk fitting. Using a grease gun, add the filling of your choice such as silicone or roofing tar patch.

i wonder what kind of effect transglutaminase would have on a muffler

As someone living in Japan, I feel like it's a different flavour of nationalism.
The LDP is more like "we're better than all of you gaijin but fuck China and Korea specifically," but at least pretend like they care about how they look on the world stage. Whereas the Sanseito is more like, "WHAT'S UP YOUTUBE FUCK FOREIGNERS CAUSING ALL THESE PROBLEMS IN JAPAN AMIRITE?"

Bluesky is just going to town on Dean Cain now.

I agree. Dude made wearing jorts and roller blades seem cool back in the day.
No wonder he got cast as Guy Gardner. Everyone else feared the bowl cut, but a man rollerblades down the street in that outfit, people know he ain't afraid of anything.

Oh, oh that's not on at all. He isn't that guy from Castle.
He's that guy from Firefly. His most acclaimed show, that went on for years (don't check).
Don't be ridiculous. He's that guy from Serenity.

They never shut up, either.
Say, your coat is kind of a brownish color.

Had to look it up. I'm thinking most of the payload would actually need to be a protein. Block of shrimp cement in the exhaust would be unreal after a day or two.

All US citizens have a 99% chance of descending from immigrants
According to the 2020 Census, there's probably a good 12 percent of the population who might not care to refer to their ancestors as "immigrants," since they were forcibly brought to the US. I think we should reject "new history textbooks in Texas"-level whitewashing of history.
But I agree with the general sentiment of your comment. Nearly all of the people crying about immigration had ancestors in another country, probably on a different continent. Some are only second- or third-generation Americans. They don't see the irony.

They just didn’t know?
Supergirl predates MAGA, it predates the first Trump presidency. Back then, those people kept that shit to themselves mostly.
Sorbo has been pretty open about his conservatism for a while. God's Not Dead predates MAGA, too (2014).

True, but back then the worst thing about the GOP was Dubya. There was still a belief that Conservatives could be reasoned with.

They should've kept up the pattern and cast Keanu Reeves in the role in the '90s or 2000s.
Playing Neo was Keanu trading up.

Not the guy who played Castle but one of the two detectives under Stana Katic, the white one. That's the one who was on the gameshow with Dean Cain.
