Wonder Woman down over 60%. That's by far the biggest drop it has ever experienced.

I loved everything with the kids, but I honestly hated Pennywise. I never found him to be scary or intimidating, and the CGI used on him took me right out of the movie.
I went to go see it again today, but every screening was sold out. Maybe that was for the best.

I liked it, but they totally made Pennywise a pussy.

What was inaccurate about the link?
You have no clue, do you?
If you think the wiki article is inaccurate then prove it.
Search engines are very easy use.
GIRL. I didn't say SHIT about your Wikipedia link. I was referring to YOUR words.

The "Declaration of the Immediate Causes Which Induce and Justify the Secession of South Carolina from the Federal Union" is a historical document.
Read it for yourself using any historical website.
You're being willfully ignorant at this point.
.....
Of course it's a historical document. But you didn't just post the link, did you?

I think the point when I realized the Left went off the deep end in the States was when Linda Sarsour was given such a massive platform and one of the posters was of a woman wearing the hijab. Why on earth would the hijab be glorified when it's so blatantly misogynistic and its core principal is that a woman should be covered up so that she would not attract the gaze of a man? It emphasizes that women are sex objects...disgusting stupidity by the left when I saw that utter abomination Linda Sarsour (who had repeatedly stated she was in favor of Sharia) rallying women in her defense...
They have completely lost their minds.
It's mostly the white Left.

And then re-written by their descendants to fit their new goals and ambitions.
A rascist is a rascist is a rascist. Views by that set have not changed much, but they are fewer in number. It will always exist, in every society that ever holds people.

Nostalgia goggles are thick for the miniseries. I probably would not like it as much had I not been so terrified by it as a kid.

Every soldier is always told they're protecting their freedom.
We put the truth in history books.
This is a historical document written by the leaders of the confederacy.
Sorry but the brainwashed 17 year old confederate soldier doesn't get to define the reasons the south seceded.
History is written by the winners.
And Wikipedia, apparently.

They fought to kept the federal government from telling them not to have slaves! That is the thing the government was telling them not to do!
Yes, this was very important for the rich people in the south. Have you read anything about the American South before 1859?
Take a look at the Free State of Winn, if you want to see the attitude of the average person of the war.

They don't got no enabling president though.
If I were as biased as you, I could point to Obama. But thankfully, I'm not.

Preserve American history!
*knows little about American history*
I live in Louisiana and am a huge history buff. I don't give a shit if every Confederate statue gets taken down.
The majority of the South fought to keep the federal government from telling them what to do. They had no stake in slavery because they were all poor white people.
It was a war fought with many different ideologies. The narrative from the Left has always wanted to make it 100% about slavery, but the facts speak for themselves.
Slavery is gone and the North won. Those are both great things. But you can't just wash over all of the causes.

I live in a conservative part of Florida and see several confederate flags each week on the road. Hell, there's an apartment complex hanging a confederate flag on a window before my neighborhood.
Ok. There are also devout Muslims praising ISIS and living right here in this country. They couldn't be a smaller minority.

It's been redistricted since then. Also, David Duke ran in multiple elections. He made it to the runoff in the 1992 Senate race. He finished with 38.5 % of the vote. He said after the election he won with his constituency of white voters, and the exit polls confirmed that. This argument is pointless when there's an entire other race with wayyy more voters and evidence. He also actually fucking served in the Louisiana House for three years! Jesus Christ, what a dumb argument.
Yeah, in 1992. Where is he now?
Tell me more about how half of all southern white people want to enslave black people. Much better argument.

I think saying 50% of the South would vote to bring slavery back is a bit of an exaggeration, but that percentage is probably in double digits.
This is the modern Left. They have no basis for their fantasies.

Nope, this is a strawman argument from both of us, frankly. I shouldn't have threw out any numbers. But here's what I'll say: I'm not from Jordan, or from Canada, no offense. I'm from the South. My dad was raised in a shack in East Texas. I live in Miami now, but I grew up with family in Central Florida and the foothills of North Carolina. I know the South enough to say that alot more than 2% of the South thinks of the Confederacy as a great lost cause of a glory age that must be brought back. Just because a largely black district in New Orleans voted against David Duke one time doesn't mean that the South still isn't a hotbed of open racism and institutional violence.
David Duke ran in Southwest Louisiana. You honestly don't have a clue what you're talking about.

Yes, this is what bothers me, too. I'm not American but I follow American politics and society very closely and there is no reason to believe that over 50% of them would vote for the return of slavery. That is just beyond absurd.
Talk about a fucking hyperbole and then ask yourselves why the left has gone off the deep end. And no...the left has lost all platform to call themselves liberals anymore.
David Duke, a former KKK leader, ran for office in a District in South Louisiana, one of the reddest of red states in 2016.
He won less than 2% of the vote.
