Blatant substitutions so people can talk about racism without tripping filters or sounding like they promote racism isn't new, y'know.

Everything is legal in Courtball, too.  Even Cybernetic Weapons.  Especially Cybernetic Weapons.  And, of course, human sacrifice, but fans don't like to talk about that subject in public.  Sometimes you get epic Halftime Shows in Courtball where they feed Catholics to the Lions!

Jaguars. They feed them to the jaguars. Gotta use the local wildlife, and not imports.

I was figuring mountain lions (cougars.).  But I could see the appeal of jaguars.

Be wary of Cougars! They have been know to grab a 20 year old man off of his bar stool.... never to be seen again.








wait, wrong cougars...

No one's mention the Netflix film Bright yet?


The use of fictional racism to bring up the issues of real-world racism has a long tradition, as the poster mentioning Star Trek points out.  My first conscious realization of the technique was in the early 80's with X-Men comics.  It's a pretty good way to get people who wouldn't otherwise think about the topic to realize the consequences.

If you mean 'never to be seen again in the same state' then you are correct . . .

More then a few over the years

But I can't judge. I married my highschool sweetheart....

And then I found out her name actually was "The Beast the birthed Satan"...
And it cost me a little over 1 million dollars in alimony and child support over the last 20 years...



But, its not like I'm bitter or anything

My Sympathies all that. Pour one out for our fallen fellows.
