Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

She is my favorite actress, so this is pleasant to see. If you haven't seen her work in Legion, I strongly recommend it. Worth watching for her performance alone - genius level.
Man I wish Marvel wouldn't pretend that show never existed. It's so fucking good, absolute mind fuck. And given the connection to X-Men, they could easily fold it in or at least make a one-off film or something.
Edit: this might be a spoiler for Legion (and Deadpool 3 I guess), so be warned... But seeing as Deadpool 3 had Professor X's ~~daughter~~ twin sister, they could easily bring in his son. I wonder if they made a conscious choice not to make Legion the antagonist in that movie just in case they want to use the character again for something else?
I hear ya, but it's a little slice of perfection that can't be stained at least. I heard Noah Hawley specifically wanted to keep it to only 3 seasons as he felt a lot of shows start to go south after that. I largely agree (although he's pushed Fargo out further and it still really good).
That's fair. The way things are going now, they'd end up ruining the IP.
I would say Fargo doesn't really fit that rule as each season is a separate story with a completely different cast.
On a semi-related note, have you ever seen what Legion looks like in the comics? Lol, let's just say I'm glad they changed the aesthetic for the show.
The show made me want to buy the books so I did. They are not bad, but boy the overhaul on the style and the storyline was huge for the show and so much better.
Yeah I haven't read the comics, just seen pictures and was not a fan of the character design at all. Screams 90s/early 00s, but not in a good way imo
Yeah, I normally avoid and hate all the superhero stuff, because it's generally all the same. Legion was not though. Legion was different and we'll executed. I wish we could see more like it.
Legion is my favorite show, period. She's phenomenal in it.
