  1. So, could someone tell my why Tumblr's throwing a fit over American Sniper? I haven't seen the film myself and am curious as to what's got them rattled up this time.

      1. @meloetta Fair point. From what I have gathered people are apparently very upset over the film due to its connection with conservative white American views, though having not seen the film I can't really comment.

    2. @northernnarwhal It's 130 minutes of hardcore pro-government conservative propaganda

      1. @zazie Ah, alright, thanks. I'll likely see it at some point anyway to form a proper opinion in the midst of the controversy, and also because even if I don't end up liking the film I am still a fan of Bradley Cooper.

    3. @northernnarwhal It's ~islamophobic~. Basically people think it's instigating violence against Muslims. Which isn't the movie's fault.
