Caliban (comics)
Caliban is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, commonly in association with the X-Men. The character was portrayed by Tómas Lemarquis in X-Men: Apocalypse and in 2017 by Stephen Merchant in Logan. == Publication history == Caliban's first appearance was in Uncanny X-Men #148 (August 1981), written by Chris Claremont and illustrated by Dave Cockrum. == Fictional character biography == He is born an albino mutant with a pale complexion and large yellow eyes. At some point in his life, he is banished from his home by his father, who called him Caliban...

Trump loves the Russian distraction as much as Obama loved the occupy distraction.
Except Obama played it off with much more tact and outwardly encouraged it.
I've said this in here so many times. Stuff like:

@NormalHuman I love how Joel bitched about an immigration non-issue, then Tim Post tried to cover it up with some sort of disingenuous "we reserve the right to say things that we feel are important", and yet nobody at SE has ever made a "take a stand" post about e.g. Ajit Pai being promoted to chairman of the FCC and things that actually matter to the community.

Like the fact that nobody cares about https://www.internetsociety.org/blog/public-policy/2017/03/tell-policy-makers-th‌​ink-twice-blocking-content-or-flipping-internet-kill because they're all too distracted debating the gender-neutrality of the term "man-hours". God dammit.

It's the thing that makes me angrier than anything else. The public ignorance. It's precisely the same reason that I can't stand answers like stackoverflow.com/a/42532783/616460 and english.stackexchange.com/a/381441/55308 (which was moved to chat).
Same crap. Mass ignorance. No ability for critical thinking.

On the other hand, we are all fishes in an over crowded fish tank, there is no escape from it ... wait until the day we exhaust all resources, we are will going to perish. Humans are a LONG way from colonize Mars. We will mutate there, we don't even know whether we are capable to reproduce on it. And hell, Mars is only the beginning, if the sun dies, living on Mars is going to be end game as well ...

Animals are nude by design.

then I don't want to know your position about Sally Accorn, @Shadow. (And I won't even mention that the "humanoid figures" look more like the Marshmallow Man from GhostBuster than actual men). Anyway, returning to Adventure Times... strange show.

A candy-tale appearance, with some pretty dark plot implications, with some even weirder hyperbole like the one in the video.

@ShadowWizard It's not "who" is to blame. It's an entire complex system. It's a cycle.

I have a unified theory of everything that is too long to post here, and very much involves the internet.
It's also related to the same reasons people ask dumb questions on Lifehacks, and that "lifehacks" became a watered-down concept to begin with.

Maybe better put it in a book, written on actual paper that can't be blocked. :D

One of my favorite things to do is to go back on Facebook, find really old #OccupyEverything posts, and ask "So how'd that work out?". Haven't got a single response yet.
Go back and find passionate BP oil spill rant posts or Fukushima "OMG WE HAVE TO HELP THEM BECAUSE I'M SUCH A GOOD PERSON" posts and ask "So how do you feel about that now?". No response.
