Apologies if this was already posted, but we got more cult like behavior. In Massachusetts, they all laid on the ground, and reenacted George Floyd's murder, sporadically shouting "I can't breath!"

And if you thought it could not get worse, the local police chief joins them

It's definitely a cult.

What is this supposed to accomplish? It all looks like a cringy performance art demonstration that you see at college. Is it too much to write original music and sing it? Also, everyone just looks like canned sardines doing this.

Reminds me of a shitty cheap version of those weird religious gestures David Byrne did in the "Once in a lifetime" music video.

How did cracker become a term for white people?

It was derived from “cracking the whip” on poor white people that worked in the fields alongside blacks. It eventually turned into “cracker” somewhere down the line. It’s pretty much a pejorative against poor whites specifically.

Really, though. What if these riots are orchestrated for political reasons and Kueng is a Russian spy? He doesn't look African American and there's no reason he should be fluent in Russian since he supposedly never went out of the country. Russian is a hard language to learn (they literally have a different alphabet) and it has no use in the USA. It's not like Russiaboos are common, particularly in the African American community. It could be just a coincidence, of course... but it's weird.

The elections are coming up, Hillary Clinton is conveniently going to court while the media is busy focusing on the weaponized plebians and BLM is getting an insane amount of backing from companies and wealthy people. Something smells fishy.

Hey there are some high schools that teach it as a language. My high school taught it, and that was in a town of 12k or so. I remember the teacher saying approximately 800 high schools or so teach it in the USA.

Fans weren't very happy either, know a bunch of Reylos who hate RoS. Plus have no idea why Boyega had to directly antagonize them?

I boil it down to his career not taking off as well as everyone else’s. He’s bitter and has shown that he likes to take it out on other convenient groups of people rather than try for more movie roles.

There were subtle hints here and there that it was supposed to be Rey and Finn, but test audiences didn't like that. In addition to his role getting shrunk, they took things like that away from his character potentially.

That could explain it, then.

Finally joining after lurking for who knows how many years. I'm not sure if anyone's mentioned this yet, but this whole "kpop stan" movement is completely unnatural. It's clearly a concerted effort from some outside force they're now using to censor open discourse, what little of it there even is, on Twitter. All of the hashtags that were flooded were completely inorganic, and I would bet if traced back far enough, were created by no-name accounts for the sake of setting up this "kpop stan" army.

Every tag about white people, anything boomer related, anything related to something semi-political that wasn't narrative driven BLM support was completely flooded with the same 5~ or so videos being posted. Now, this has been going on for a while. Kpop shit has been trending for a couple of years now, but never was it such a concerted effort of the same couple of videos and pictures being used. They seemingly only used a couple of profile pictures, and the text they used was basically the same jargon with an edit or two, for 60k+ posts on a tag.

The thing that really gets me is the amount of them openly using Chinese, and how they default to using it when they actually DO argue with someone. I riled up a couple of them, only for them to bombard me with 5 or so of them posting, eventually leading them posting a bunch of Chinese saying that they could insult me however they wanted and I'm clearly a stupid American that won't understand them. Donning my tinfoil, I think it's China taking advantage of America burning to further sew dissent, using Koreans pop culture to mask who they actually are so if anyone did point fingers, they wouldn't point it at China. As far as I'm aware, and I could be mistaken, China hates Korea, yet every time weird Asian text popped up, it was inevitably Chinese characters.

I also wonder if this spam technique is a response to Trump's poor attempt to force them to not ban people (though I'm currently suspended anyway without using any gamer words). Instead of banning, they'll probably just flood everything they don't want people to like with kpop or whatever shit they discover gets an autistic fanbase in the future.

tl;dr, kpop stans don't real

"Corn cracker" or "cracker" meant a white person that had to do their own grain processing because they couldn't afford to have anyone else do it. Same as "redneck" was from whites working their own fields and getting sunburn.

Was Boyega aware that Disney wanted a piece of the Chinese market while they were making the series? No matter how much people have tried, blacks still aren’t well received in China. If Boyega was in a movie that was only meant for the Anglosphere, he’d probably get better luck in terms of movie roles. Adding in China just screws things up between needing to be woke versus needing the Chinese to see it in theaters.
