Also no helmets. Can’t cover the face even when wildly impractical.

CaptPretentious ,

You probably meant motorcycle helmets My mind immediately went to Avengers Endgame. Everyone removing their helmet everytime they had anything to say… Was an awful direction

LANIK2000 ,

I honestly don’t get it. Recently read a manga and they ACTUALLY WORE THEIR BLOODY HELMETS DURING BATTLE! It was glorious! Occasional a stray bullet destroys the helmet sadly…but for a large chunk of it all, they actually fucking wear them! You could still tell who is who by body proportions, dialog and context so that wasn’t really an issue. Also it’s hella dramatic to take off the helmet after battle or when trying to negotiate with someone. It just makes soo much more sense!

Feels like the issue is to not cover the actor’s face because that’s where the perceived value are. Drawn media doesn’t have that issue, so they can do it in a creative way.

LANIK2000 ,

Honestly, I despise the feeling of recognizing an actor. All I can think about in that moment is the other movie’s character and it just breaks immersion while confusing my little ape brain.

Also they do the same in drawn media too. The anime adaptation for example features 0 helmets.

Annoyed_Crabby ,

Yeah, seeing RDJ on other role is so weird after being so recognisable as Ironman. It’s no wonder he wanna end the role to break off from typecasted, ironically at the time where MCU is at its peak.

Also what’s that manga? Seems interesting 👀

LANIK2000 ,

Youjo Senki. And the anime adaptation does not do it justice. It feels like a completely different story xD

GiveOver ,

And when they have sci-fi helmets they have bright lights shining at their face. Surely that would be annoying.

They remove the rear view mirrors a lot too

You guys should put in this much effort and hate to the government. Billionaires play very little role in my life, but the government is in every aspect, but for some reason we are focusing on them.

BobGnarley ,

For real lol just a nice diversion to distract everyone from the real problem.

Leviathan ,

The government is directly controlled by their individual billionaires.

CableMonster ,

I somewhat agree, but the influence on the government spans much more than billionaires. The powerful do control much of the government, but its also a bunch of assholes that abuse their power.

They are paid to abuse that power, by the billionaires. The billionaires also pay them to keep folks fighting over any topic that keeps the people away from realizing what they are up to. Usually most of the more ridiculous claims from folks at outlets like Fox come right before billionaires cram themselves a tax break into an omnibus bill or repeal some fundamental human right or cut critical parts of your social services and supports.

CableMonster ,

I agree but its more than just the billionaires. For instance where I live there are no billionaires and the government is still the biggest thorn in my side.

Leviathan ,

Where do you live?

CableMonster ,

Idaho. How about you?

Fun fact: the US Pledge of Allegiance wasn’t always as it currently is:

The original version, known as the Balch Pledge, was created in 1887 by George Balch, and went as follows:

We give our heads and hearts to God and our country; one country, one language, one flag!

Five years later, in 1892, Francis Bellamy created a similar one, known as the Bellamy Pledge, that went as follows:

I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

And all this was merely informal. The “Under God” part wasn’t formally a part of the Pledge until 1954.

BONUS FUN FACT✨

In 1956, “In God We Trust” became the official motto of the United States. It formally replaced “E pluribus unum”, which was long the de facto motto of the US.

As a side note, I just have to say

FUCK. THIS. BULLSHIT.

Have a great day.
