Starlord reacted to Ranxerox in Political Discussion Thread (With Rules)
The belief is that the lawyers are playing the long game. That a ruling against the ICWA would be a stepping stone on the way to rulings that would help their fossil fuel clients.
It is deemed unconstitutional to make a law saying that only white people can adopt white children or only black people can adopt black children. However, it is perfectly constitutional to make a law saying that the children of foreign nationals living in the US in the event of the loss of the parents should be sent back to the nation of the their parent if it can safely be done and does not harm the children.
Therefore, a ruling that the ICWA is unconstitutional is a legal precedent against the sovereign status of the tribes. Precedents like that are useful when you want to argue that you should be allowed to build a pipeline across a reservation or acquire drilling rights on federal land is considered part of a tribal nation.

It's just genocide. Fewer brown people = more for white people. Besides, what if they were to ask for their land back?

Now that is a bold faced lie. There is no way you could have watched something that doesn't exist.

Linked rather than pasted due to f-bomb.

Starlord got a reaction from Lawnmower Boy in What Have You Watched Recently?
Ditto, I thought the She-Hulk finale was really fun, particularly the parts that involved Marvel poking fun at itself and Jen poking fun at trolls and toxic fandom.

Starlord reacted to Hermit in DC Movies- if at first you don't succeed...
While I enjoy a lot of Dwayne Johnson movies ...., he's not why I want to see Black Adam. Rather it is his co stars in JSA roles that have me hoping I'll enjoy it at least as a flick. I enjoyed Aldis Hodge in the Leverage TV show a GREAT deal , hope Hawkman gets some moments. And Pierce Bronson? I've enjoyed his stuff since the 80s and he's been the Bond of one of my favorite movies of the Franchise and I think he's gonna NAIL it as Dr. Fate!

Starlord reacted to Pariah in Marvel Cinematic Universe, Phase Three and BEYOOOOONND
Honestly, I don't have a problem with "let's make fun of the guys who don't like female superheroes". Those guys are schmucks, as far as I'm concerned.
But that's just me.
