If Peertube has the Breadtube (Breadtube is dead, long live Breadtube) and Magic: the Gathering content I want to watch I'll use it.

Classically cute: an otter.

Quick with a mean bite. And can be very ferocious and territorial, even against humans.

Gavrillo Princip and Lee Harvey Oswald show it's hardly new.

Both bullied outsiders who wanted to show the world they weren't weak and could leave a mark on history.

Edit: your overall point about the constraints on masculinity though is very much on the mark I think, though. All the more reason to break down gender norms.

Cleaving to the centre has enabled Trump, because centrists can't criticise the neoliberal system while Trump and his MAGA cult can and will.

As the facade of neoliberal policy crumbles we can all see it doesn't work. Being able to criticise it and assert a different future (rather than a mythical past of greatness) is essential.

Less overt gore than some splatter fests mentioned already, but Martyrs was an incredibly intense, uncomfortable gorey watch.

Like the others so far have said, if government is to justify its continued existence it needs to be for the good of all the people, not just those with capital.

It still implies a level of hierarchy and control, which isn't good and will tend to lead to centralisation and corruption because power tends towards collecting more power.

But if it could be making life on the ground better for all the people, (food, shelter, education, preventing the environmental destruction that private ownership has bought) not at the expense of people within or without it's borders (even that one child in the secret basement), them it'd be a damn sight better.

I think you may have found one of the constructive stereotypes that OP wanted.

Good job.
I hope more folks can appreciate how great Sikhs often are.

I think it's that we don't really call them stereotypes when they're not applied to people.

At that point it's just a hueristic.
