Here is Scranton's aforementioned opinion on Ant Man & The Wasp - Oh I though it was very fun and well done. Every villain doesn’t need to be some strong compelling villain so I don’t know why that’s an issue. The narrative was cool and it’s a great watch. I don’t really do ratings but I saw it twice I own it I’ve watched it again a few times.Shocking, I know, huh? I was expecting him to give it a good slating.

You did. There was never going to be a recount of every miscast ballot. The Supreme Court stopped a selective recount that Gore requested. After the election, it was determined that Bush would have still won if the Gore requested recount had occurred. The imaginary recount that your article touts was never going to happen. And for good reason. It’s not up to election officials to guess what a ballot may have intended. I mean, whatever you have to tell yourself to rationalize all of the illegitimate stuff you support and still sleep at night is your business. If every vote had been properly counted, Gore would've won, notwithstanding your pitiful attempt at semantic hopscotch. In a way, casting a ballot is a minimum intelligence test. If you can’t do it correctly, you have no business voting. I remember Democrats at the time floating the idea that it was a form of voter suppression to expect them to pass that test. There is alway some excuse.

No, no, no: by Archie standards, that is pretty much slating it. Is Archie turning his back on the MCU?

There is alway some excuse. Yes, from smug Republicans and Patriots fans for whom the system is explicitly rigged to begin with; it's a symptom of privilege, as is the obliviousness. As is the howling that occurs when this is pointed out.

Not a blueprint for a liberal utopian society.

You think Kurt Vonnegut would've sided with you about Bush winning Florida? Yikes. You're even dumber than I thought. ETA: "The only difference between Hitler and Bush is that Hitler was elected." Kurt Vonnegut
