    Meh, it's just another example of Trump Derangement Syndrome.

    What kind of breathalyzer can detect whether or not you had a drink 5 years ago?

    Yes, but not in the way you think. What we have is a case where a completely meaningless scene was cut for time (as is standard practice) 5 years ago . . . but now Trumpists are convinced this is evidence of some kind of devious, fascist censorship. That is definitely deranged.

    I'm surprised Guavaball hasn't brought up Harvey Milk... We're on page 8 already...

    PS: I pretty much known as a pro trump guy on this site, but even I have to agree this is really a stupid thread. It was an 8 second cameo that had no impact whatsoever on the story of the film.

    They're on a bender, think 8 years of TDS. You can relate, ay?

    I can't relate to the TDS that causes people to spin a victim narrative over a nonpolitical editorial decision made 5 years ago.

    Sometimes fresh bait isn't available, but when trolling for trolls while they're in a feeding frenzy one uses what's available.

    It's cumulative and current, Cuomo won't let federal judges appointed by Trump officiate marriage ceremonies, the Canadian Broadcast Corporation airs a movie with scenes of Trump removed. Fishing is good!

    Scene, not scenes. One 8 second scene. And they removed it for nonpolitical reasons along with several other scenes 5 years ago. The victim narrative has failed. Trump snowflakes will have to find something else to throw a tantrum over.

    They'll find some other fake outrage to scream about soon. Normally doesn't take more than a couple of weeks.

    What I find interesting is how certain media outlets play follow the leader on stories like this one. This wasn't a big news story in 2016, 2017, or 2018. It became a big news story this year because the president tweeted about it

    Cheating on your pregnant third wife - a ok
    Paying off a prostitute to interfere with the outcome of an election - a ok
    Using the office of the president to promote your properties - a ok
    Stealing money from a charity - a ok
    Pardoning war criminals - a ok
    Running trillion dollar deficits during a “rocket ship of an economy” - a ok
    Cutting eight seconds of a 20 year old film five years ago - OMG its a vast conspiracy and we need to waterboard the people responsible


    jesus some of the narrative here is insane.
    Almost like it’s a cult...

    Why do you use the word “almost”?

    You forgot lying under oath in front of a Federal Grand Jury and coercing a witness to file a sworn false affidavit as well as coercing them to testify to the same if the Federal Grand Jury calls them as a witness. Oh that's right that was Bill Clinton.

    I’ll have to take you word on that performance being watchable.

    You’re the first person to engage me on that question. Everyone else just told me to go start my own thread. Thanks for that.
    I posed the question to see if Guavaball was concerned with with censorship or just “attacks” on Donald Trump. The most recent example I can think of would be the Hallmark Channel pulling adds for a wedding planning site because it featured two brides. Apparently some conservative mothers group weren’t fans of it.
    Assuming he just doesn’t like censorship, I’d have imagined that would bother him too.
