					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://didacticmind.com/2021/03/monday-morning-with-captain-kirk.html#comment-6006&quot;&gt;JohnC911&lt;/a&gt;.

&lt;blockquote&gt;t is one of the worst laws to come to America and the funny thing was I along with many of my Generation were taught it was a victory for rights in America. When in fact it takes rights to discriminate away from people. It also pushes the courts in places where it does not need to be.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

This is &lt;i&gt;de rigeur&lt;/i&gt; among conservatives. Their basic decency and humanity gets in the way of objective reality from time to time, and the issue of civil rights is a very touchy one for them as a result. It&#039;s impossible to argue with people these days to point out that civil rights legislation has largely failed.

No one that I know of on the Right argues in favour of going back to forced segregation. It is an utterly unworkable and foolish policy. And no one on the Right argues for slavery - we hate it for the affront to human dignity and God&#039;s Truth that it is.

But &lt;i&gt;conservatives&lt;/i&gt; fight tooth and nail against the idea of &lt;i&gt;VOLUNTARY&lt;/i&gt; segregation, which others on the Right recognise is inevitable and necessary. This is because conservatives are hopelessly wedded to the idea of a &quot;melting pot&quot; society. This doesn&#039;t work in real life.

There is nothing in the world wrong with all-White towns, any more than there is anything wrong with all-Black towns. And if those communities voluntary insist on keeping themselves racially pure, that&#039;s up to them. The Civil Rights Act and other such legislation made such voluntary arrangements impossible. So we all have to find other ways of dealing with the fact that xenophobia is a survival instinct.

Ironically, both liberals AND conservatives acknowledge racial realities in their behaviour, if not their words. &quot;Good schools&quot; is classic coded language for &quot;neighbourhoods without many Blacks or Hispanics&quot;. Those are precisely the neighbourhoods where White liberals, especially, prefer to live - as much as they cherish their idiotic &lt;i&gt;kumbaya&lt;/i&gt; ideals, the moment that they are forced to confront the messy realities of Black-dominated neighbourhoods, they run to the hills.

&lt;blockquote&gt;I am surprise on Razer not liking Snyder Cut of Justice League&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I suspect that this is because of the nature of Zack Snyder&#039;s work. He is a highly polarising director. Those who love his work, will greatly enjoy the Snyder Cut. Those who hate it, will loathe the Snyder Cut.

I personally do like his style, especially in films like &lt;i&gt;300&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Watchmen&lt;/i&gt;. He&#039;s actually a very good comic-adaptation film director. But I can see why people like Razorfist, who are not big fans of the DCEU, would dislike the Snyder Cut.]]></description>

The &lt;i&gt;OUTRAGE!!!&lt;/i&gt; For shame, sir! For &lt;i&gt;shaaaaaaame!!!&lt;/i&gt;

In all seriousness, &lt;i&gt;Star Trek VI&lt;/i&gt; is a very good movie. I like II and IV a lot as well, but I always found VI to be about the right balance of cheese, sentimentality, and - let&#039;s face it - epic overacting. It&#039;s not often that you find Shatner being out-hammed by anyone in a movie, but Christopher Plummer does a superb job of it.]]></description>

&quot;I personally have never seen Star Trek V. My favourite out of the bunch is probably Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. (Comments about Didact’s APPALLING taste in films to follow, natch.)&quot;

I have made a grave error and you have helped me discover it.  Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country is absolutely the finest.

Star Trek V is so bad I blocked it from my memory and replaced it in my mind with The Undiscovered Country.

I will now go into a hibernation of shame.]]></description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;He really is a unique on-screen presence.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Yes indeed. He&#039;s a very unusual character. Sometimes you think he&#039;s just a colossal ass and severely high on himself - and then you see him in a completely different context, where he is a serious, capable, and committed actor. It&#039;s genuinely a weird combination.

&lt;blockquote&gt;So far it is untouched by The Abrams, there is real mercy.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

We shall see. Judging by the parlous state of ViacomCBS finances and the complete lack of appetite to risk any more capital on new, disastrous, KurtzmanTrek and Jar-Jar Abrams projects, it looks like many of the older-generation (i.e. GOOD) Trek films will stay untouched for a while yet.

I personally have never seen &lt;i&gt;Star Trek V&lt;/i&gt;. My favourite out of the bunch is probably &lt;i&gt;Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country&lt;/i&gt;. (Comments about Didact&#039;s APPALLING taste in films to follow, natch.)

&lt;blockquote&gt;Good for Ice-T. It is a strange nation when Ice-T and Kanye West have developed to be intellectual elite in pop culture.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Yes indeed. We live in strange times and they only get stranger by the day.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Video guy to check out for making comedy sketches with good timing and delivering the truth in direct opposition to the communists: Barricade Garage&lt;/blockquote&gt;

That&#039;s going straight into next week&#039;s Browser Mulcher. Many thanks.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I know Jason was trying to pin Al Gore on his father. I must say Al Gore father voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by using filibustering. Well I must agree with that. It is one of the worst laws to come to America and the funny thing was I along with many of my Generation were taught it was a victory for rights in America. When in fact it takes rights to discriminate away from people. It also pushes the courts in places where it does not need to be.

The person does not get the job well now they can claim it was due to race, sex, religion or other reasons. The business will now have to prove it was not the case instead of you know trying to make money. I would say this is one of the reason we get large multinational corporations in America. Now they can afford the lawyers and the red tape, smaller business get shut down over the legal issues

I am surprise on Razer not liking  Snyder Cut of Justice League. I must say for myself it was very entertaining and fixes many of the problems I had with the Joss Whedon version. I know 4 hours is a long time but it fleshes out both the story and the Charters of Cyborg, Flash and especially  the Villain Steppenwolf. Steppenwolf now has motivation to what he is doing and the movie provides a epic conclusion compare to the Joss Whedon version. Also less bad jokes. I would give it a 8 out of 10. I know Snyder movies are not for everyone.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Shatner is strange. I rolled my eyes while skimming the introduction to today&#039;s post...then the moment I tried to scroll through the embeds of Shatner on twilight zone, Man From Uncle, Trek... I had an involuntary smile and started to watch them. He really is a unique on-screen presence.

The Final Frontier is the strongest of the Star Trek Films, even more than the KHAAAN one. It carries the hope that Trek brought. So far it is untouched by The Abrams, there is real mercy.
