surprisingly, this still remains probably the best and most concise explanation as to why the harry potter franchise didn't work and never could work in a satisfying way because of the author's limited perception of life and politics

It's especially hilarious if you've spent more than five minutes looking at MRA content, and realize they blame both men and women for screwing men over. (And also women, sometimes.)

They constantly talk about government actions, and most government officials are men.

But pro-feminists just assume MRAs blame women or "the matriarchy" out of nothing but projection.

(Unless they're mistaking "blames feminism" for "blames women" again.)

Was probably planning to make comics or something. But I have dozens of those ideas already.

Once got into an argument about that on Reddit. Said that some people thought it was. Someone unironically went "well, look at the far-right people who usually fly it!"

I said "if the left thinks it's inherently wrong to be proud of your country, that really says more about them than the right."

A school has offered "unreserved apologies" to a pupil prevented from making a speech at school about being British, while wearing a union jack dress.

The 12-year-old, who attends Bilton School in Rugby, wore the outfit for Culture Celebration Day on Friday.

Her father, Stuart Field, said: "My daughter felt like there was an issue, she felt like it was something she shouldn't have done. That's what is wrong about this whole situation."

A spokesperson for the school said: "We deeply regret the distress this has caused and offer our sincere and unreserved apologies."

Mr Field said in a Facebook post, he picked his daughter up early from school after the incident.

Discussing the reaction to the incident, Mr Field said he had had messages of support from across the globe.

"I've had hundreds of people reaching out to me from all over the UK, as well as Australians, I've had Polish, people from America all reaching out," he said.

"And there's a common thing - we should be able to send our kids into school to celebrate British culture and history."

Mr Field said the school had now invited his daughter to come back in her dress and read a speech about why British culture was important to her.

But he told the BBC that she now "doesn't want to wear the dress" as "she doesn't feel comfortable".

Mr Field added: "None of this would have happened had [the school] just followed their own policy of inclusivity and let everyone share a little about their culture."

And he said: "I don't think anyone from school really read her speech. It was more a case of 'no, it's not happening'."

A since-deleted Facebook post from the school, which included a flyer for the Culture Day, said the event was dedicated to "recognising and celebrating the rich cultural diversity within our school community".

"We encourage students to consider wearing attire that reflects their nationality or family heritage," it said.

Any outfits that were worn had to be "appropriate for a school setting", the post added, and had to hold cultural significance.

A statement from Bilton School said: "We are proud of the diversity of our students and the rich heritage they bring to our community.

"We are committed to fostering an environment where every pupil feels respected, valued and included.

"On 11 July, an incident occurred during our Culture Celebration Day that caused considerable upset to one of our pupils, her family and members of the wider community."

The school said it apologised, before the statement added: "We have since spoken directly with the pupil and her family to listen to their concerns and reflect on how this could have been handled better.

"We are committed to learning from this experience and ensuring that every student feels recognised and supported when expressing pride in their heritage."

The speech in full

Hello everyone.

Today I want to talk about my culture - British culture - and why it’s important to me.

In Britain, we have lots of traditions including drinking tea, our love for talking about the weather and we have the Royal Family.

We have amazing history, like Kings and Queens, castles, and writers like Shakespeare.

It's also modern, diverse and always changing - with music, fashion and food from all around the world blending into daily life. And let’s not forget fish and chips!

It's also the way we speak, our humour, our values of fairness and politeness, and the mix of old traditions and new ideas.

But sometimes at school, we only hear about other cultures - which is great because learning about different countries is interesting and important. But it can feel like being British doesn’t count as a culture, just because it’s the majority.

I think culture should be for everyone - not just for people from other countries or backgrounds. Being British is still a culture, and it matters too. It’s part of who I am.

So let’s celebrate all cultures - whether they come from far away or right here at home.

Thank you!

I love Hideo Kojima he makes multiple games where characters give long winded monologues (that he personally wrote) about how US entertainment media is designed to manufacture consent for the military, and then he’ll spend 3 days gushing about Top Gun

She looks like a wacky supporting relief character in a tween sitcom I would've developed a crush on 20 years ago.

I think most of these people OP's talking about are just acting out of blind partisanship, and would do the same thing if a non-Jewish person said something was anti-semitic. Especially when it comes to certain ongoing conflicts. Heck, some of these people are Jewish themselves.

I'm sorry but if a jew tells you something is antisemitic and your first action is to defend said thing instead of trying to find out why said thing is antisemitic, you are antisemitic.

9.5/10 the thing is genuinely going to be antisemitic for a reason you don't likely know because you don't know the nuance and lived experience of being jewish.

Step 1 - lefties claim Trump is planning some heinously evil action

Step 2 - Trump does not do the heinously evil thing because it was never something he was planning in the first place

Step 3 - lefties pat themselves on the back for stopping Trump from doing the heinously evil thing he was never planing to do

Step 4 - rinse and repeat, now citing the heinously evil thing that never was as evidence of the new heinously evil thing that isn't happening

I would just laugh at them at that point, why would someone buy something like that.
