    Disney ‘Star Wars’ Box-Office Profits Fail To Cover Cost Of Buying Lucasfilm

    lol, I completely missed the "Get woke, go broke!" part. I think my brain knew it was completely irrelevant and automatically filtered it out. Probably a last moment addition after the OP realized the post wasn't trolly enough.

    Disney ‘Star Wars’ Box-Office Profits Fail To Cover Cost Of Buying Lucasfilm

    The new movies were bad, but box office profits is only a small part of it. Star wars gets a lot of people on to their disney+ streaming service, including their small screen efforts like The Mandalorian which is a very good show. And most of their profits comes from merchandise anyway. Overall...

    There are a few people that we know are intelligent and we have to listen to them when they say something of importance!

    Conmen and politicians have a lot in common with actors in that they trick people into believing they're something they're not. Take Trump for example. He's fooled a lot of people into believing he's intelligent and successful. I definitely agree that it's a lot easier to be in a role you're...

    Why “God” is not needed for a code of ethics

    Just because they don't change doesn't make them objective. There are many religions that have laws that haven't changed for hundreds or even thousands of years. Are those religions objective as well? Your belief that your religion's laws are true is based on faith not objective reality.

    $1 BILLION in 15 years

    No one is arguing against this point because no one disagrees with you. We all know Palestinians would be better off if Hamas actually did things to help people. The only point you brought up in your OP that's worth debating is "The death and destruction in Gaza is 100% the fault of Hamas" which...

    $1 BILLION in 15 years

    In the OP you concluded with: If you didn't want people to argue against this point you shouldn't have brought it up in the first place.

    Florida HIGH SCHOOL school requires parental consent for students to watch Disney’s animated movie ‘Tangled’

    If you don't care about your students or the choices they make you're probably a pretty crappy teacher. Perhaps that's why conservative states tend to rank lower in education than liberal states? :p

    Florida HIGH SCHOOL school requires parental consent for students to watch Disney’s animated movie ‘Tangled’

    That's fine if you're not too concerned if a student is included or not, but if you are you often have to communicate with students/parents to make sure they got all their forms signed so you don't end up in a situation where you have to turn them away at the last minute.

    Florida HIGH SCHOOL school requires parental consent for students to watch Disney’s animated movie ‘Tangled’

    Oh, I agree that the school is doing what they need to do and I'm definitely not blaming them. This falls on the law makers who created these silly rules. I think I could maybe see an argument for this if parents actually wanted a say in these sorts of decisions, but it sounds like they don't...

    Florida HIGH SCHOOL school requires parental consent for students to watch Disney’s animated movie ‘Tangled’

    That certainly would solve some of the problem, although a separate burden that was mentioned in the article was the amount of time they had to spend chasing down permission slips.

    Florida HIGH SCHOOL school requires parental consent for students to watch Disney’s animated movie ‘Tangled’

    But the only reason why they might be held liable is because Florida created these laws in the first place. Other states don't have this issue. And while signing forms might not be hard, reading and understanding the contents of the paperwork is burdensome. I'm betting many parents who are...

    Florida HIGH SCHOOL school requires parental consent for students to watch Disney’s animated movie ‘Tangled’

    The parental guidance is meant for young kids, like 5 year olds. It's even less than PG-13 which is meant to warn parents there might be material inappropriate for children under 13. High schoolers are ages 14-18, so asking for parent's permission to see a PG movie doesn't make sense.

    I don't think Americans can imagine the trauma for the millions of Palestinians

    75% of Palestinians weren't old enough or even alive when Hamas was elected, so yeah, I completely agree with you since it's not the kind of thing little children and the unborn would generally think about.

    How many innocent Palestinians must die to get Hamas?

    "As many as it takes" is an insane strategy since no amount of deaths would be enough to eliminate Hamas even if Israel killed every last person in Gaza. They have a presence in other places and their leaders live luxuries lives in Qatar. Violence and destruction alone isn't going to solve this...

    Majority of Gazans Are Dispossessed and Displaced

    Not just Hamas, but Israel too. The world in general is feeling less and less sympathy towards Israel as this conflict continues.
