    It bothers me that we’re at a place in society where all real violence is vehemently condemned. Mutual combat is prohibited in 46 of the 50 states, kids get expelled if they stick up to bullies, people are raised from birth to be complete victims if they’re ever in a physical confrontation, but then there’s all of this non-stop glorification of violence on-screen.

      If Thanos tries to destroy the world, the Avengers cut off his head.

      If Rupert Murdoch tries to destroy the world, you’re not even allowed to smash his windows. It’s not fair! Violence is good and TV taught drag why.
