The problem isn't the cops as much as it is prosecutors. Those people are vicious and responsible for putting behind bars many innocent people. Kamala is one bright example that has put in jail so many of her own.

Sensationalist and populist source - but interesting read.

It would be a very sad movie if they tried to be honest. From everything I've seen and read, the guy had the mind of a child. I don't mean he was disabled or stupid, he was just very naive and didn't have a full grasp of what most people call normal life.

And if they didn't make it honestly it would just be a generic musician biopic and people would absolutely hate it. Maybe after more time has passed they could approach it realistically. A movie on all of the Jackson kids maybe.

Yea, maybe we should all be nuked.

Who would play him? Casting either a black or white actor would cause drama.

Plus, it's hard to build hype for such a biopic when top social media comments on all the ads would probably be something like "hey remember when that child was able to accurately describe MJ's penis".

I'd also like to add that TUIs (or most interactive CLI applications) tend to break shells because of command characters not being parsed properly. There's a way to reinforce your shells so that they are, but I regularly skip that step

I'm glad I succeeded at thinking of something universally despicable that has no real moral weight.

I’m not disagreeing with that. That’s really the crux of all politics.

The important takeaway is that whoever puts lettuce and tomato together with peanut butter and jelly should be flogged in the streets.

Remember when MLK started "The Poor People's Campaign" and they shot him immediately?

I don't think he was guilty. Now don't get me wrong, I do think he did some weird things, but I don't think he molested any children, and neither does Macaulay Culkin, a child at the time who was close to him. He was also found not guilty in court. On top of that, he bleached himself white because he had vitiligo, and his skin already had massive patches of white that he was incredibly self conscious about, considering how massively popular he was. All that on top of the aforementioned abusive childhood due to his pos father, he was definitely troubled. If I were to guess they would go with something like your third option, but I do think they should go further and talk about his entire life, as there is so much misinformation out about him

There are objective truths but it is impossible to know our present them all. When only some information is presented it creates a narrative. We try to make our narratives as course to the truth as possible but the limitations of our physiology makes this impossible to fully achieve.

Objective moral good is a slippery one. One needs to first define good before one can determine what actions and habits lead to that. I support human flourishing but others argue for obedience to god or maximizing non-interference. You can't have an objective conversation until you agree on what The Good consists of.

I can't find any links but I'm pretty sure I heard of chimps and orangutans being used in factories, might not be true though.

I think it's because of that one time they cast Joseph Fiennes to play him and everyone lost their collective shit.

People spend more time watching the news now than at any point since the invention of the television.

I aM a RoBoT. I Do NoT KnoW LoVe.

Laws that the police are supposed to enforce 🤔 Their just going to selectively enforce it only on other black cops they want to get rid of.

You really don't need a mouse. If you're a good hacker you know all you need to do is enter up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A then return.

I'm guessing the massive amount of controversy surrounding sexual allegations with him is the main reason why. There are a large enough number of people who believe and disbelieve the allegations to the point where any sort of biopic leaning either way on them would piss enough people off to want to avoid a biopic altogether.

Idk what he was thinking of but cops do pretend to be protestors and just so they can cause an incident and arrest everyone.
