SGU is so perfectly poised for a continuation at any point. Everyone but Eli is in cryo and we don't know what happened.

Some actors won't come back? Ok, the characters died in cryo. Some actors are sceptical about returning? Their cryo pods are stuck and can't be shut down. David Blue specifically won't come back? Eli didn't manage to fix the last cryo pod. Or maybe he's just missing, along with a shuttle.

Anything could have happened on the ship in the intervening time. Any plot device that's too powerful (like the stones) could go missing. Don't like the enemies that were being set up? That's cool, it's a new galaxy.

And of course, since it's not actually certain how long Destiny will take to cross the gap (maybe Eli had to slow it down?), this continuation is evergreen.

In 2016 a glass bottle found buried in the threshold of a man's house was featured in an episode of Antiques Roadshow filmed in Trelissick, Cornwall; glass specialist Andy McConnell tasted a small amount of the contents theorising it was possibly port or wine though he did note the rusty flavour and the presence of nails, a later episode in 2019 then revealed the contents had been analysed by Loughborough University that identified it actually contained "urine, a tiny bit of alcohol, and one human hair" alongside some brass pins dating from the late 1840s and an ostracod. It was theorised to be a witch bottle.[4][5]

Love it!

Here's the thing though: I have no idea which way you think this is biased without reading more of your analysis. Initially I thought you meant the BBC was biased against Vance because it made Walz look more relatable.

Why would you make jalepeños even worse?

The patriarchy

Most of the people still supporting Stein are calling Bernie a sellout because he's telling people to vote for Democrats.

In Michigan? Do they?

Anyway I'm already participating in my local government in non-partisan positions.

They have one example in Michigan (where I live), and he ran unopposed for trustee in Fenton Township.

Michigan has 1,240 Townships, 257 villages and 276 cities, and the greens have managed to get one position in one Township by running someone unopposed. Even the Libertarians have done better, as Wikipedia points out four current libertarian office holders in Michigan.

You being anticommunist is what I thought you meant. Those aren’t unrelated.

So you think that what I meant by "I’m more worried about [some people who] make other communists look bad" was that I'm an anti-communist? That seems highly unlikely. If I were anti-communist, surely I'd love those people precisely because they make communists look bad?

I have been acting in good-faith

Literally your first response to me in this entire thread was uncivil condescension.

Communists, Marxists, Marxist-Leninists, etc. Anyone that actually defends AES and doesn’t repeat US State Department Propaganda about the Global South.

Yeah that's not what I mean by Tankies, and it's not what most people mean by tankies. Not all marxist-leninists are tankies, for example. In fact I'd go out on a limb and say most aren't. But those who try to sweep under the rug the bad things that nominally-communist states have done are tankies, and they give other communists, other marxists, other marxist-leninists, and indeed all other leftists a bad name. (As an aside, most of the time those things were done by state-capitalist governments, not communist ones.)

doesn’t repeat US State Department Propaganda about the Global South.

I'm actually from the Global South. I can promise you the US state department is full of shit. As are most Americans who speak about it, including most American leftists.

Please participate in good faith rather than just making accusations.

How about you start by explaining what you think I mean?

Are you saying there's nobody who defends all three and claims to be a leftist? Because that I'd say I've never seen. But I've certainly seen various accounts claiming to be leftists and defending one or two of them.

Are you saying there aren't people who defend aggressive actions by far-right politicians? That there aren't people who defend Netanyahu, Putin and Trump?

Honestly I'm more worried about those who claim to be communists but do things that both go against the tenets of communism and make other communists look bad. Tankies are a subset of that.

Israel has a similar population and GDP to Michigan (and a similar land area to New Hampshire).

Despite being a swing state, Michigan has nowhere near as much influence over US national policy.

Mostly people who defend far-right aggression and pretend their stances are "leftist" getting upset when they get called out on their bullshit.

Not just that, but some of the loudest voices do more harm than good for leftism.

"Birds fly south for the winter" was the second example I remember of my classmates having only learned things with northern hemisphere bias after moving to the northern hemisphere.

The first was my classmates not grasping that while it was spring here, it was autumn back home.
