“You will give the people of Earth an ideal to strive towards. They will race behind you, they will stumble, they will fall. But in time, they will join you in the sun, Kal. In time, you will help them accomplish wonders.” - Jor-El, Man of Steel (2013) (inspired by this)
“Yes, the Meta Human Thesis, more likely than not, these exceptional beings live among us. The basis of our myths, Gods among men
upon our little blue planet here. You don’t have to use the silver
bullet. But if you forge one. Well then. We don’t have to depend on the
kindness of monsters.” - Lex Luthor
Excuse the shitty graphic but I wanted to use my fave panel of Selina while showcasing some people I adore. This isn’t because of hitting some follower goal or anything, just genuinely wanted everyone who follows me to know and follow these fucking incredible people!!! Ok I’ll stop rambling now. All these people are mutuals and the bolded are people I talk to on a regular basis/love to pieces❤

You know what? I’ve lived through Ezra being given shit for identifying as queer, I lived through him being called a dirty hippie, I even lived through anti semitism directed towards him. What it taught me is that people don’t want to do research but would rather reblog something, say vile shit in the tags, and say “whelp he’s cancelled” as if they know ANYTHING. This is nothing new, and people will find a new celebrity to latch onto in a couple days.
So I watched it. And here’s the summary. It’s four minutes long so you can watch it as well (especially if all you know about this is a screencap of an article one year old).
It starts off with the actor playing Darren reading Wilson’s post acquittal ABC interview with George Stephanopolous verbatim. “It was a normal day,” starts off the actor. Throughout the video, there are various shots of the actors hands clenching, his eyebrows furrowed, lots of blurring, lots of off-center shots. As you go on, it becomes more and more clear that this is actually portraying Darren as a liar. His words sound rehearsed, he is clearly not telling the truth but instead trying to portray himself as a victim.
And sure enough, at the end, you hear a door open and a women saying “We’re ready for you,” and it moves to this shot:
He was rehearsing all of this in front of a mirror, before what I presume was the very ABC interview mentioned at the beginning.
TL;DR this was done very clearly to portray Darren as a scumbag who spewed the same rehearsed story every time to portray himself as a victim. This is no way suggests that Ezra or Sol support him, but in fact it clearly shows that they believe the exact opposite.
And you know what’s the funniest thing? The video has only 166 views. Meaning, Twitter and Dumblr were reblogging the screenshots of the tweet or article and pretty much no one actually went out to watch the video. The article is also dated nearly a year ago, so someone actually went digging to find that.
I know that it’s the sexy thing to bandwagon and demonize someone over little to no context, but this is an actual serious matter, so take the time to watch the video before you reblog the screenshots and see if your opinion is still the same.
