        You can find the quote around the 24 minute and 25 second mark Lois and Clark: The new Adventures of Superman

        I did a lot of digging to find this!

          this is not a various form; it’s a quote. it was Reagan’s slogan and mango reused it because he can’t come up with anything original. i just wanted to know if they referenced and skewered Reagan that directly

      teri hatcher carried that show so hard. even as a kid i hated him but enjoyed the scenes when they were together because she just makes things feel natural.

      and of course she became huge and started in a much bigger show while he was forgotten until literally 4 seconds ago when people started reporting on his racism. failed artist comes out as right wing cunt; who could’ve seen this coming‽

      Kevin Sorbo all over again. the only difference is i haven’t heard hatcher shit on him publicly and repeatedly. gods bless the warrior princess.

      Yeah and half white. So probably has that white imposter syndrome, or whatever it’s called, that many hapas have. So they try to prove extra hard that they white which often means becoming full tilt racist. Like in my country the Netherlands two party leaders of far right parties have Indonesian heritage.

        It’s not like Japanese people are super progressive, Japanese culture is ridiculously conservative; they just wield so much soft power that no one cares. If you read in the news that people in Oman were working in standards they have in japan, and treating women culturally the way they do in japan (christmas cake, etc) , you’d think that place sucked. But because they make sushi and anime, no one cares.

    Superman is literally an illegal alien. If you ever needed proof that there’s an official IQ cap for these sorts of government jobs, here you go.
