What is his age? My girls are 9 and 10, and we still play lego almost daily.

he's 10, he'll get a big set and build until it is done, sometimes several hours, depending on how complicated and how many pieces

I don't mind him building with legos,I just don;t wanna go to anymore lego movies...

my 8 year old girl is autistic and also loves legos

The problem is that you aren't dealing in reality. You presented the idea that this is a one-way street, and that there is only one street. That's just not reality.

It wasn't the right that started this silliness.

Which silliness is that? Are you dishonest enough to claim that "the right" isn't guilty of censoring what they find uncomfortable?

As usual, we're dealing with two sides of the same coin.

I wonder what the percentage of minority actors to white actors is right now. I get that things like this upset you, but you're not really saying anything.

I'm not upset I'm just goofing around, as usual.

I don't care what Pop Culture does. I didn't care when I was an impressionable youngster and I certainly don't care now.

Honestly if Hollywood actually cared about diversity and inclusion they'd try and find an Asian or Hispanic Superman before a black one.

I didn't make that claim.

When I was a kid I liked Enemy Ace comic books. I didn't like Superman, Batman or any other "Super Hero" comic books.

I liked Enemy Ace and the War comic books.

Even when I was 8 years old, I was like this.

Because the mods are jealous of your erudite genius, that's why, the petty little . . . nice people.

I didn't say you did? I am making that claim. I'm saying that if Hollywood actually cared about diversity and addressing historically underrepresented groups in Hollywood, they'd aim for an Asian or Hispanic Superman before a black one.
