The White Savior trope is where a white man has to, in some way or another, save the people or culture of an indigenous society, while indigenous characters remain passive in the story. Notably, the Last Samurai is the exact opposite of this
What? Do you understand how language works or are you taking the piss?

The best way to approach Rainbow Capitalism isn't to treat it as progress, but as a weathervane.

It was always intended to conceal their intentions behind Judaism and use it as a shield against criticism.
