  So you are angry with that person and their takes on DEI? you may want to proceed against the individual, be angry at him. That's exactly what he wants. Do not fall into the trap!

  A new Street Fighter trailer dropped today: https://www.imdb.com/video/vi656919321/?listId=ls053181649 The movie itself looks so cheap and ridiculously bad that I'm really eager to watch that as soon as it premiers. Heck! I'm pretty sure is so, so bad it would be just great to enjoy. If you don't know what Street Fighter is or why is it relevant, go ask your elder parent, they will know.
