Some of the best villains are quite physically attractive:

No one is a racist in the news media - they merely say and do things that are “racially charged” or “racially insensitive” or “racially tinged,” even. Anything to avoid actually saying, “racist.”
At some point we, as a society, managed to convince everyone that being a “racist” (and “fascist”) was bad. Unfortunately all that seemed to actually do was make the racists and fascists deny that they were racist and fascist (and that the real racists/fascists were their ideological opponents).
The dividing line between “racist” and “not racist” somehow became shouting slurs at people, or declaring you hated a minority group - presumably because that was the lowest bar, and easily avoidable. (Fascists get identified by wearing swastikas in public.) Except when someone does do that, it’s a “regrettable lapse in judgement brought on by stress” and doesn’t actually reveal their real self, don’t you know (and the swastika wearing is “ironic”). So there are no real racists and fascists - except BLM and antifa, of course.
So Tucker can be out there calling Iraqis “semiliterate primitive monkeys” and deny being racist, but once his writer uses the n-word…

Just try to wrap your head around it: Someone more offensive than Carlson himself.

I just love that screencap of Tucker-
It’s like the most perfect stupified incredulous dumb man look ever portrayed by a white guy in America.
Whatever he made that face at, it was clear that it was beyond his reasoning, you can just see his peanut sized brain imploding with the look on his face.
Between that and his typical conservative haircut, comb over bob cut, whatever you call it, its like an Encino Man moment in ice of the state of regressive, dumb conservativism in America at the turn of the new century, encapsulated for all time for historians to ponder.

I’m not so sure. The earliest records of Stephen Miller’s activities go back to at least 1734, but laws dating back to 1652 in Wallachia indicate that he may have been active much earlier.
Of course, the history of common subterranean-dwelling dwarves go much further back, but the family history of dwarf/troll hybrids are notoriously unreliable, so there’s really no way of knowing how old Alex Jones is.

Between that and my description of Roger Stone today as a “crooked buggywhip maker looking motherf*cker” that had even me laughing, it would probably go against community rules, but we really oughtta do a comedic insult desciption thread for some of these goons, like the scottish insults of Trump thread a while back.

Do tricksters qualify as bad guys?

I think “bringing an invading alien army to Earth in order to enslave humanity” goes beyond a garden-variety lark.

But pretty much everyone in He-Man’s universe is buff as hell, except for Orko:
Yeah, Loki of the MCU is definitely a villain.

Off topic, but yes; Michael B Jordan is quite ascetically appealing.
Which brings me back on topic, because according to White supremacists, that should not be the case; his smooth brown skin, the full sensuous lips, the tight kinky coils of his hair - those are all supposedly “lesser” physical traits that we as Black people are ‘supposed to be’ ashamed of…

yes, indeed. not trying to hijack thread, merely agree with everything you just said. This Adonis is somehow less than a blonde,fit, “attractive” white man? Bullshit! the whole of this conversation has pointed out that these so-called “superior” white dudes got nuthin. people are beautiful until they let the ugly in. then it shows all over them
(as has been pointed out repeatedly in this thread.) my $.02 is not really adding a thing.
but can i just say, one more time: Michael B. is sooo pretty!

Well, Michael B. Jordan does have one thing in common with a blonde, fit, “attractive” white man…
He played the Human Torch in a bad Fantastic Four movie before getting cast in a far better Marvel movie and eventually hanging out with Black Panther in Wakanda.
