Aliens: HUDSON!

poolcleaner says...

I was amused but mostly watching out of respect for everyone involved in this groundbreaking movie -- but then the credits killed me. I guess I'm easily amused by comedic fonts and text, I thought the funniest parts of Lego Batman were the opening title gags.

Comic Sans: The Man Behind the Worlds Most Contentious Font

Where the "comic book font" came from

spawnflagger says...

I think using the history of the usage of the word "font" is not the best, as it was only used alongside computers. Maybe they should have combined the sum of "font" and "typeface".

Also, there is a documentary called Helvetica. It's great (if you're into fonts).

Street Musician inspires Dancer, encouraged by her father

Are you dense?

The original comment on the video was, "We think we know everything about a culture. No. No we don't."

I was responding to that, the original implied "they're Arab, so they're Muslim, but look! He's letting his daughter dance!" (at least to me). On top of that, I even added a comment about Judaism and Christianity and religion in general, but apparently you were too high up on your horse by that point to be able to read such a small font.

That you would make the comment at all shows that you think it's worth noting that 'Look, this one ISN'T a fundamentalist, and this Arab looking woman isn't being subjugated!', only leaving out "now I've seen everything."
For me, that's what was disturbing, the apparent surprise that any random Arab family might NOT be Islamic extremists.

I got your point about there being fundamentalists in other religions, but that's not the point. You would not see a white man encouraging his daughter to dance and say "Look, she's not wearing the little house on the prairie dress. Dad must not be a fundamentalist.", or a Semite with their daughter and say "She's not wearing a sheitel (wig) or a tichel (headscarf). Dad must not be a fundamentalist.", and when people jump to that disparaging (even subconsciously racist?) conclusion about them apparently based solely on their skin color and/or accent, it's unseemly (to me) and is exemplary of a problem.

EDIT: Also, I don't understand your 'diagram'. shouldn't it be
(non fundamentalists (religious people) fundamentalists)
or more clearly but probably not proper punctuation-
[non fundamentalists (religious people] fundamentalists)
?
