  • I don't think that's what they're saying. There are countless pieces of Nazi propaganda that were taken as fact at some point in the intervening 80 years. Famously, the number of people killed in the Dresden bombing was hugely inflated by the Nazis to smear the Allies, and those numbers were accepted for a very long time.

  • Just so you know, the phrase you're thinking of as historic and racist is "colored people". People of Color is a more modern example of people-first language that has been broadly accepted as politically correct. Admittedly, at face value it seems like a very minor difference, but the historical context of a slur is 90% of the problem a lot of the time, so here we are.

  • I know it's been said a thousand times, but the books really are immensely better than the show. And they have a proper ending! The last 3 unadapted books are arguably the best part of the series, and Alex is there since there was no dipshit actor to get himself fired.

  • The person in the picture definitely has a slightly unusual figure, I think exaggerated by their clothes, which could be perceived as a generation error. The image also has a certain painterly tone to the colors that resembles that of an AI image.

  • Meh, I'm no patriot, but I think American English is largely fine. Minced meat sounds gross, and for some reason when you drop the 'd' it means fruit. So yes;

    Hamburger in lasagna

    Hamburger in meatloaf

    Hamburger in Shepherd's Pie (no one's ever heard of cottage pie)

    Not hamburger in tacos, once cooked and seasoned we call that taco meat (you may have a point).

  • For the record, Americans refer to all ground beef as hamburger, cooked or raw. Hence the once-popular boxed dinner called "Hamburger Helper", which allows you to prepare something stroganoff-adjacent with the contents of the box and a pound (unit of weight) of hamburger (ground beef).
