I hope you guys realize that McAllen is 85 percent hispanic. The 10 percent white people aren’t out there by themselves. It is a bunch of based Mexican Americans. That whole city was built with cartel money. Go to the mall there and you probably won’t see a white person. My Aunt and Uncle like to play a game called “spot the gringo” because there are barely any.
Not really- built with cartel money. You must have it confused with Brownsville. I lived in McAllen for 15 years. There are pockets of white people and neighboring towns that are pretty white (Sharyland for one).
The Valley is corrupt as fuck- the Parade is kind of neat, but it will be probably 95% Biden. They literally pay people and drive them to the voter booths to vote for specific candidates. The only decent thing is that there's a relatively low voter turnout.
Corrupt indeed...... Ever since I was little - till now some man always goes to my grandparents house and bring them tons of plates of bbq just for voting for their party. I asked my grandma if she even knew who she was voting for and was completely blind. Crazy.
The valley isn’t “built with cartel money”, in fact since NAFTA the money in the valley has gone across the border and McAllen and Brownsville went into the toilet. It’s better now than it has been in decades, but if you’d seen it in the early 90s you’d be stunned how far it’s fallen.
Fallen? There wasn't shit in Brownsville or McAllen for most of tve early to mid-90's. Applebee's and Chili's were the height of dining. That's not the case anymore-- I'd live there again in a second if it weren't so fucking ridiculously hot.
Star Wars nerd here. The Mandalorians are such badass warriors they've been giving the Jedi headaches for a few thousand years. They're basically Spartans mixed with Klingons.
Reminder that he sold his baby to Disney, I don't blame him since money is really tempting even if you're a multi-millionaire but I don't feel sorry for him in the least.
After Jarjar, Lucas has no reason to complain about ANYTHING anyone does to the franchise. I do not think any single character in any film has ever been so thoroughly annoying to everyone, before or since.
Jar Jar was only the most obvious problem with the prequels. Those things were so bad, and break so much of OT lore that I prefer to just pretend they didn't happen, or were Anakin's fever dream as he died on the death star at the end of RotJ.
My department head used to give a lecture every other semester about why Jar Jar Binks is awesome.
The gist of it is he was the first fully animated main character in film, and when people hated him, they hated the actor that played him, not really realizing that he was completely CGI.
My department head was one of the guys that animated him, so he was pretty proud people treated Jar Jar like a human lol
Nolan? He's patient zero for this problem
...look at Dunkirk, should be an epic of heroic action, damn commie Nolan turns it into some sad wah-wah introspective downbeat thing, just like Gravity.
And I was pumped about mandalorian, get the free trial, but it's just more Disney crap.
1] I disagree, I think there's a very large number of stories to tell, and ways to tell them, which are more or less consistent with our foundational ethos. And I think one problem with modern movies is just what you outlined... the studio system got into this retard groupthink about the Hero's Journey archetype, they have it worked out to the n-th degree, they insist that scripts follow this stupid thing. That's part of it right there.
Maybe the marketing departments are involved earlier in the movie making process? Something is making movies STINK...maybe because there's so much money involved, they absolutely MUST have certain features which they know will sell so many seats.
And yeah, fuck Chyna, fuck degeneracy, fuck the incessant deomnization of Western traditions and white people, you racist shits.
LUDICROUS SPEED?!**
THAT'S LUDICROUS!
SOMEONE GET THIS BATSHIT INSANE PATRIOT 24 BRICKS!!!
why, you ask? BECAUSE THIS PATRIOT WILL USE THEM TO SOFTEN THEIR FASTER-THAN-LIGHT CRASH LANDING at the U.S./MEXICO BORDER!!!!!
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GET THIS PATRIOT A BRICK! THAT'S 169063 BRICKS HANDED OUT!
We are at 23.81169014085% of our goal to BUILD THE WALL starting from Imperial Beach, CA to Brownsville, Texas! Let's make
sure everyone gets a brick in the United States! For every Centipede a brick, for every brick a Centipede!
Honestly I think all of that stuff (old "Nerd stuff") is more liked by the right than the left. It feels like its that way as far back as you go.
Today the left is constantly shitting on any traditional "nerd" IP, wanting to change it to fit in their ideology. Even in the past, when Christian groups were angry Captain Kirk kissed a black girl, it wasn't the Christian republicans of the north, it was the racists in the deep south, the Dixiecrats.
They hated it then, and they hate it now. Unfortunately now they have basically absorbed all of Hollywood so they now are able to change all of these great IP's into total leftist bullshit.
But the fact remains they still don't like Star Wars, or Marvel, or Star Trek, they hate it all. That's why they want to change everything.
That's really something, isn't it? You would think "socially awkward, twiggy pasty kid" would embody the left, but they keep showing over and over again that they were never fans of the things they want to corrupt.
Star trek, star wars, ghostbusters, doctor who, dungeons and dragons, comic books, video games... they're completely out of touch with all of it and the changes they want to make to all of it are completely unwanted by literally every true fan of those things.
Likely impossible. A large percentage of the people living in the RGV are either here illegally, have family who are here illegally, or have family across the border they want to cross onto the U.S. illegally.
Those who don't have any ties to illegals vote for the communists (what used to be the democrat party) because that's all they know. There are virtually no Republicans holding any office.
The remaining population...(30%?) vote republican/independent to no effect.
There are a lot of based Mexican-Americans in the RGV, just not nearly enough to make up the difference.
What infuriates me are the skyrocketing property taxes that go towards building/funding public schools that cater to illegals who cross through the the border crossings (Ports of entry) each day to attend. School buses wait in convenience store parking lots while car after car drop off their illegal kids to be picked up. Everyone knows what is going on; everyone turns a blind eye to it.
There's plenty in the Valley that hate/loathe illegals. It's not really Mexican illegals that are coming through- it's Central and South Americans. Hell, a lot of Valleyites don't even like the snobby Mexican nationals that act like fucking royalty when they're on US soil.
I agree. Most crossing these days are from South or Central America. Well, technically, hardly anyone is crossing now.
And no one likes the snobby, "Good Smelling Mexicans", as Sergio Sanchez calls them. This isn't Harrod's, it's fucking WalMart, now move your damn cart, Princess.
We are doing it every Saturday until the election. It started with 5 Cars and every week it's growing. We meet at 9 am at Lindberg and 12th St. (Parking Lot) and we travel north along 10th Street all the way to the Kohls parking lot north of Trenton.
largest mistake the dems have made that will haunt them for generations is thinking that Latinos would be a solid democrat voting block like African Americans...the really should have just opened up a history txt book...
Some pedestrians would start to flip us off and then stopped. They like the Mandalorian. They were so confused as to what to do.
cognitive dissonance.
to really throw them off, carry an empty bottle of Soylent.
Anything with Nintendo games on it from Animal Crossing to Mario Cart.
Lmao
reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

'The only decent thing is that there's a relatively low voter turnout."
Not with the Democrats universal mail in ballet, whether they vote or not - a ballet will be turned in with their name on it.
All honest Americans need to decide what they stand, if they will accept the results of a chaotic election or not, and how far they are willing to go.
And then we need to let everyone know we are ready and willing to fight about it.
A chaos free election or Civil War.
Drinking with Mexicans is one of my favorite things to do, true story
Bingo! Right on all counts!
The valley isn’t “built with cartel money”, in fact since NAFTA the money in the valley has gone across the border and McAllen and Brownsville went into the toilet. It’s better now than it has been in decades, but if you’d seen it in the early 90s you’d be stunned how far it’s fallen.

The last few years the valley has clawed back quite impressively, but prior to that it was pretty bad. The decline after NAFTA was pretty sharp.
This is the way, fuckin A!
This is the way, MAGA!
This is the way. MAGA,A!
This is the way. MAGA,A!, A!

Star Wars nerd here. The Mandalorians are such badass warriors they've been giving the Jedi headaches for a few thousand years. They're basically Spartans mixed with Klingons.
The Thrawn Trilogy should have been the sequel trilogy.
I consider it corporate fan fiction. And if the rumors are true, George Lucas is heartbroken over how Disney raped his baby.
Reminder that he sold his baby to Disney, I don't blame him since money is really tempting even if you're a multi-millionaire but I don't feel sorry for him in the least.

Your department head was is an idiot who should spend the rest of his days stepping in shit, just like Jar Jar.
Fuck SJW Wars
The first movie from the 70s was good, I guess the next 2were pretty good, everything else sucks, mandalorian included.
Modern people can't make movies, not sure what happened.very sad
I think my boy Christopher Nolan can make good movies.
Also Disney has done some good things with star wars
1.) Rouge One was mostly entertaining
2.) The Mandalorian was awesome
Nolan? He's patient zero for this problem ...look at Dunkirk, should be an epic of heroic action, damn commie Nolan turns it into some sad wah-wah introspective downbeat thing, just like Gravity.
And I was pumped about mandalorian, get the free trial, but it's just more Disney crap.
Everything sucks now, ps GET OFF MY LAWN
I disagree but you do you
See how congenial we are on this forum? WATCH AND LEARN, COMMIES

The prequels were pretty good too. Most of the content Disney put out however is a disgrace to Star Wars and should never have seen the light of day.
Fabulous! Fabulous! Fabulous! We need more of these!
Ther’re going to do these caravans every Saturday until the election! I’m joing the ranks this weekend!
Eh, it's pretty close to Crusader. I'll allow it.
This is the Way.
Mandalorian is made by true men.
The Disney Trilogy is made by SJW feminazi's like Kathleen Kennedy.

Woah! I've been gone for a day.... Are... Are our beloved bots back??
I just reincarnated this bot today! Working on the others like CoatBot and Trump Train bot.
I miss Coat bot. Bless you, pede, for reincarnating the bots! You deserve a brick or two thousand, right u/WallBot?
Unfortunately there's a small bug with .Win so the username is case-sensitive!
I'll edit....
I don't think editing will send the notification...
You are right, so I'll try with a fresh message. Ok, u/WallBot, ready, set, Go....

A Mexican with a good job and a family is a very conservative minded individual. It never ceases to amaze me how often they vote democrat!
We can only hope. With how indoctrinated most of the young are.
Maybe they won't flip, but they will have more red votes than usual.
Now spray paint it red with "MAGA" on it :D
I drove around the neighborhood tonight. Not one presidential sign.
I know Biden isn’t trying and we don’t advertise our choices in Washington.
Pretty sure I know how this is going to go down.
We have an HOA, so campaign signs in the tard yard aren't allowed. But the houses flying the US flag are a sure bet... lots of those!
I’ve got an older neighborhood in some parts so we don’t have that bullshit. It helps I threaten the neighbors I’ll sue if they try to form one.
THIS IS THE WAY 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Awesome. I'll let my boys know. We're all down here with BP right now helping out and admiring that big beautiful wall.
Every Saturday, look up rgv trump train!
Help me Obi-Don Trumpobi
You're my only hope
