Being critical of your interests is sooooo fun when you have the critic gene & then you sound kind of insane to the average tv watcher when you're like "this is my favorite show, It's Racist" & then you try to clarify what you mean & get that [Speech (legendary) - FAILURE] "the racism is really interesting though"

[Speech (legendary) - SUCCESS] I find the sociopolitical context of pulpy old sci-fi born circa the civil rights movement really fascinating to analyze especially when it was progressive for its time but still reveals the writers' unexamined biases in the subtext

Them: So you're saying its bad and I shouldn't watch it?

Me: I mean depends on your tolerance for this type of racism, but like I said it's my favourite show, it def has some great parts if you're up for it.

Them: Oh so it's not racist.

Me: It absolutely is.

Them: So you're saying racism is ok??

Me: No.

[ID: a reply from @jingerpi that says:

when you become sufficiently woke (literal meaning) your options are to always be miserable about everything forever or to find intrigue in case studies of racism as illustration of the society that made them

Hey guys! I've seen a few posts about this but I think people assume it's fake or "free real estate."

Canada's new citizenship law (Bill C-3 passed, early March 2026) dictates that if your grandparent, great-grandparent or great GREAT grandparent was born/spent significant time in Canada, you are now automatically a Canadian citizen and can apply for dual citizenship. You do NOT have to move to Canada to do so.

How do I apply?

First you must gather as much documentation as you can - birth, death, marriage, immigration and any other records showing a direct relative spent significant time in CA. First source documents are imperative, meaning photocopies or internet downloads won't cut it; you'll likely need to travel to CA to procure them. You can hire an immigration lawyer for much of this (especially if you live far away) or do your own research and collection. Once the documents have been accepted and your citizenship verified (current wait time is 10 months) you will receive your passport and dual citizenship status.

If you have or can find relatives from further back - as far back as possible! - you can still apply, but the process may be more time-consuming.

While partners and spouses can't take immediate advantage of the program, you having citizenship will pave the way for them to apply in turn.

As this is such a new program, the wait times are likely to increase significantly - I urge anyone who may be eligible to get started NOW. Even if you don't intend on moving to CA, having citizenship in your back pocket is never a bad idea in These Troubling Times.

A lot of fantasy goes with Tolkien explanation of fantasy racism being the result of ancestral grudge.

Then you got Dungeon Meshi which is like:

"Elves and Dwarves hate each other because their respective empires make up 2/3 of the imperial core and are stuck in a cold war as the planet runs out of uncolonized land to grab. Elves are able to live in pastoral paradise because they've horded most of the settings farm-able land and natural capital, displacing and mass murdering any natives in the process. Orcs and goblins are hostile to other races because there the primary targets of an ongoing slavery and genocide campaign. The dividing line between human and inhuman is arbitrarily assigned via a phrenological pseudo-science that quickly falls apart when questioned by anyone who wasn't indoctrinated into it since birth."
