Non-cape tv show

I like how the same faggots who whine about Lovecraft and muh racism love to appropriate his shit. People don’t even use the term Lovecraftian correctly anymore and it makes me want to put holes through their faces.

But yeah, with Cuntent like that they might as well openly declare a race war. I’m down to fight.

They tried to cancel the mythos by going "Lovecraft was racist, you are no longer allowed to use Cthulhu anymore" every now and then.
Now they just decided to corrupt his legacy instead.

It's almost like they didn't intend for the show to last so long after he became an hero.
Now they just need to introduce Moriarty's apprentice, and their ripoff of the Saw franchise is complete.

Word of advice - if you watch any British shows, avoid the name Steven Moffat because his shtick is always to parody the source material whilst also giving the characters 'deep'(as in designed to appear on GIFs) dialogue to show how mature and meaningful his retelling is.

I know Moffat sucks for Doctor Who but I didn't know he sucked as a show runner overall.

Exactly, it’s okay when they appropriate something. How paranoid are black people though? Magic exists in a world but we’re gonna make sure white people can’t use it? I know some of them truly believe that an ancient wizard created whites from germs, but it’s almost like they realize if not for shitty fiction their culture would have been nothing more than sticks and mud if left to their own devices.

It’s massive overcompensation, and goddamn that Spaniard missionary who suggested importing them.

There is a book I begrudgingly see in my local book store called White Fragility, claiming that white people talk about racism ie they can’t listen to the author lecture them without rebuking claims. I’d love to write a book called Black Fragility that examines the massive yet incredibly frail ego of blacks and all of the bullshit they do to compensate for it. They’re the Spoony of races, no matter what they’re given they just find new shit to whine about all while being venomous pricks.

The whole treatment of black characters in Current Year is so much more awkward and cringy as it was in say the 90s, or even the 70s. I betcha this era will one day be known as a Dark Age for black cinema.

Also put every remotely smart person on the spectrum. They become more relatable if they're quirky, you know?

Sherlock Holmes has been completely botched in modern entertainment. Woke soybois can't conceive of someone who became the greatest detective ever through hard word and dedication, so he always has to be a dickish autistic or a dickish drug addict. The only tolerable version is Robert Downey Holmes, but even he's way too quirky and the second movie basically made him an observant superhero who has no choice to do what he does because of FATE. ("It's my curse.") Even rip-off crap like House or Criminal Intent portray him as mental asshole or nutjob always on the edge.

The only Sherlock-type show that got the character right was probably Forever, though it had a goofy immortality angle and was cancelled after one season because of production issues:



Plus it co-starred the hottest Latina ever.

There is some shitty comic book called "Black" by a hack named "Kwanza" where only black people have superpowers, but somehow slavery still happened. (If you google it, you have to add the term "comic book"; otherwise you'll just get a bunch of crap about the made up holiday, Kwanza.)

[Guest]

How do blacks get the ability to deny white people magic?

[Sieg Zeon]

Through fiction, that’s how.

I’ve heard of Black before, it’s more power fantasy shit.
