| ^^^ Population issue is interesting. Israel's birth rate is the highest in the west, when you include immigration from the old Soviet Union then it partially explains land grabs + increase in high rises (if you can't expand without being called "war criminals" then the Israelis will be for... |

| The Jews have survived seemingly intractable situations. This has led zionists to believe that through smarts, determination, and heavenly intervention they will always find a way. History teaches otherwise, nothing lasts forever. The only way zionists will be an exception is if the Jews are the ch... |

| I watch stuff to be entertained. To forget that the whole world is a screwed up place full of racism, sexism, homophobia, and America's domineering politics. Actually star wars now is very multicultural thousands of Clones, Jango Fett, Boba Fett - Moari actor temeura Morrison Ashoka - Rosario Dawso... |

| Sure, fans aren’t directly responsible for that, but there may have been concerns about what would appeal to fans due to its overwhelmingly White and overwhelmingly male legacy. It’s improving, especially in its inclusion of women, but it’s not quite there yet. women were never really into Sci-fi w... |

| Looks like "Crystal's" tale has been told by a number of different Anglosphere news sites around the world. According to this VICE story (June 9, 2025), the original source is this New York Post story (June 8, 2025) -- and I certainly am not inclined to trust the New York Post on matters ... |

| No, they aren’t typically “designed” for the same demographic. While some like both, others like fantasy but not science fiction and vice versa. They are different genres. You can’t include Tolkien among science fiction authors and expect people to take your argument seriously.\ I should have said ... |

He's 10 years too late then. He knew what he was signing up for back in 2014, he's a fan after all. |

true, but I would throw tolkien, JK Rowling, George RR Martin, Suzanne Collins and Stephanie Meyer into the fantasy genre which tends to attract the same audience as Sci Fi. Characters are designed for the same demographic. |

| Story time! The pilot for Star Trek had a female first officer, but the studio denied it. After the changeup, Roddenberry hired Nichols for the role of Uhura, but the studio tried to deny that, too. Roddenberry fought to not only keep her on, but to also give her speaking lines, which the studio al... |

Sorry, not the qanon inspired child sacrifice. I meant animal sacrifice. But even that's not that widespread anymore. |
