When I saw they wanted a 6 year old to have the emotional maturity of a 40 year old I knew it was gonna be a mayo flavored opinion

But her mom lived on one of the islands and went to the same school as Obama!!! Which is the most exclusive private school on island, with like 10% natives, but they totally go around bullying white kids and breaking their arms on Kill Hoale day, which is totally a thing and not just an urban legend. 🙄

I rolled my eyes so hard they almost stuck at her saying this movie keeps the “them back us” narrative going and is damaging to Hawaiian society lol

Jen Bartel is fake queer and shows fake concern for minorities and oppressed people to get clout so she can fuck off. Let's not ever quote her pretentious ass ever again.

She claims to be bisexual when I know for a fact she has never been in a relationship with a woman EVER. She also has only dated white men. she is VERY privileged and has never had to work hard for anything in her entire life. She got her clout from claiming to be part of the queer community, gunning for black rights, but when it comes down to it, whether or not she's hapa, she would claim her whiteness at the most convenient chance she gets to further her agenda. Every time she gets on her soapbox to preach about racial and queer inequality, she only does it with the intention to make herself relevant by injecting herself into the dialogue when she has no first hand experience. She actively made connections with people in the industry to further her career and burn the bridges of those who can't help her. She is opportunistic trash. No cap.

They're indeed racist.

They seem to support ICE, or at least putting children in cages. And they seem to be anti-indigenous and anti-Muslim. They also call coronavirus 'The Wuhan virus' or 'Wuhan fluhan'. They're trash.

The same people who think that Lilo is a brat are the same ones who deeply relate to Holden from Catcher in the Rye.

It's funny that you say this, considering Holden is also grieving and traumatized.

Lilo's been a top trending topic on Twitter because of this lol but I didn't bother to read that hot take until now. It's ???? It almost reads as satire. How do you watch such a sweet little movie like Lilo & Stitch and come away with that?? "The natural result of that message is The Godfather"?? What??

tsarinakate1 April 11 2020, 21:57:32 UTC
Um i think you mean "the horrific movie the Godfather"

That. Has to be a joke right?
