Pic not related?

Generally, because it reminds them of their own lack of positive traits.

Because it's hard for them not to come across as bitchy

There are plenty of likeable ones, it just so happens that the vast majority are you-go-girl mary sues with zero depth or explanation as to how they can overpower fully grown men.

>people

This. The often just write them to be bitchy. Why can't they be nice and strong? Is being a cunt supposed to be a sign of strength?

She was a shit character that almost ruined the season.

I really hope she's dead for good.

Because they are pathetic boys afraid of women.

Because they're almost always played by weak female actresses.

because they were made with the writers thinking "WE NEED A STRONK WOMYN CHARACTER" in mind

there are plenty of strong female characters throughout cinematic and television history

because people are watching the show for fucking Kevin Spacey, not this literally who third rate whore

reminds them of their overbearing single mothers

Wait, she fucked up that too?

I was talking about Supernatural.

but she isn't
she's just pretending to be

Because people don't actually write "strong female" characters. They write insufferable cunts.

Why didn't you post one?

this

I don't know, I don't watch the show but I saw somewhere that she "had to fight" for the same pay as Kevin Spacey

For me it's an overused cliche

I would hate that particular character too if it were a man. Also this

My bad, she looks like Mary Winchester in Supernatural, another insufferable cunt.

because it's mostly a box checking meme

i don't get it. spacey owns every scene she's in. her scenes are all the same. claire uses a calm voice and emotionless face.

How many in imdb.com/chart/top have strong female leads?

Tarantio has Uma Thurman in his movies and what else?
The japanese anime Spirited away?

Maybe people just dont like actual real life women in action filled roles.

Claire is weak throughout the series and at the end of this season she is clearly being controlled by the two introduced characters

pic related ran for six seasons and both of the main characters are female warriors

They are also both shit so there's that too.

define "stronk"

Because they are weak characters faking it to appear strong and literally using plot-armor.

Because she's a boring and annoying cunt and her stealing of the spotlight was forced and uncalled for

>t. butthurt roastie

Define strength OP.
Being a hoity toity piece of shit towards people and biting them like a rabid dog is not a show of strength as much as it is a show of insecurity.

Strength is having willpower yet also having restraint so you aren't consumed by it; having the power to dominate other people, yet still treating them with respect even if they are weaker, unless provoked; ignoring the intimidation of others unless it sources from legitimate danger.

Untalented men have a lot of trouble inspiring women to have sex with them. Already at the bottom of the barrel among males, it's only natural that they would hate the sight of any woman who was also superior. As long as a man is misogynistic, he can tell himself that he's better than at least 50% of all humans. If a pathetic man allowed himself to respect women, he'd have to admit to himself that he is actually grossly inferior to about 90% of the population of this Earth. This is why misogyny is a hallmark of inferiority among males.

>literally my turn

what a shit season

/r9k/ autists =/= all people

She has little depth in the show except in her vagina from that faggot speechwriter

>mfw

Seriously though if you didn't see this coming last season then you're retarded

Say what you will about Claire but Robin Wright is mommy-tier

Tend to be poorly written one note things. Flaws and deep seated weaknesses are what characters pop.

>fighting to be paid as an equal of an actor 10x better than you
never change women

The sole exception--shes a strong female character simply because shes a good character, not because of any feminist bullshit

>emotionless face

Seriously, why can't she emote?

This is the sports fallacy all over again
>those players attract far more audiences, bought tickets, and revenue into the financial pool from which everyone is supposed to be paid; far more than me; but i should be paid equally nonetheless because being born with a vagina is a skill in itself

The worst thing about this is that the feminist with the philosophy in question doesn't in any way work towards creating more wealth for society and other women, she merely advocates for unwarranted and unjust shuffling of existing wealth into her own hands. When a society is more interested in shuffling wealth rather than creating wealth, society tends to go down the drain.

Just ask the Slavs who burned Communism to the ground because of this, along with all the stupid shit it excreted like feminism, identity politics, welfare economics, etc.

And now almost every slavshit country is doing even worse than they did under socialism. Good job.

We dont, we just hate shitty forced ones
>Inb4 someone tries to compare Ripley and the modern stronk womyn

Furiosa is the only recent one that I actually liked because she gets fucked up but can still hold her own.

Most female leads have the never lose complex.

And what the fuck did you think would happen after Communism? Magical skywizard popping from out of thin air to magically fix shit in one day?

Negative birth rates came as a result of Socialism/Communism, kind of how shit is afflicting you in the West proportional to your acceptance of those Commie values like feminism.
Welfare programs made everyone lazy, which is one of the hardest conditions to cure, worse than fucking drugs, ergo Slavs are having a fucking nightmare with it.
It doesn't help that Communism/Socialism has destroyed trust in any kind of authority or governance, especially one marketing itself as a "moral" and "ethical" authority that's all about equality and Utopianism and being infallible, and this adopted mistrust also doesn't help in the present.

Negative birth rates + laziness = shit economy.
Because the economy is shit, there is no incentive to produce children even though this shouldn't be the case (as many poor nations showcase).
The reason is simple, Communism/Socialism fucked up the ability to rationally adapt to, and deal with, materialism. The scale wen from one extreme to another.
Materialism states: Don't have children without economic stability, except there is no basis for economic stability and in a paradox children are required to motivate and force a person into monetary and financial advancement. The mind and the logic get confused, and the end-result is present Slavs.

That's why none of this social justice "progressive" bullshit works on Slavs anymore.
They burned it to ashes for good reasons, and now they are attempting to recover from a fucking gangrene covering half their body.

It will take a few more generations to get things right.

I for one prefer a strong woman over a weak female

Can someone give me a quick rundown on this first episode of the new season? what was teh whole deal with the little girl accusing frank and also what was the deal with her connection with the terrorist dude? i remember fuck all from the previous season except some dude got beheaded

I prefer well-written female characters... Robin Wright is a talentless hag.

>can't even pay attention to what people say

just kys

Aren't the characters pretty much the Clintons?

wtf i love bullying now

I feel like she's on on top girl when she fucks Saul

I don't. I hate shitty written characters. Like Claire, all she does is getting controlled by the last arrived Francis2.0, she doesn't get anything right and everything she has she's leeched it from her husband and how does she act about it? entitled and cunty. First thing she does when she's in power? Flippin' off the one who put her there.
The only thing she has in common with Francis is the thirst for power, skillwise she can't compete, yet I'm supposed to believe she's as good, and what's worse is that the writers will probably make her succeed somehow next season.

Forced strong female characters are hated. Nobody hates Scully or Xena. 90's were a better time.

Its all about writing.
Pic related for example is great.

rude desu

>socialism in USSR
>welfare
Holy kek, dude.

Because modern strong female characters have strong antimale sentiments and shit on men.

All the social programs and welfare programs you know of were invented by Marxists, Utopian Socialists, and Communists.
USSR had plenty of welfare programs, which of course came at the expense of certain others.
The flawed ideology of wealth distribution only made things worse.

Why don't you google USSR social programs and welfare structure to educate yourself on something?

I think in a decade or so by pushing it so hard, writers will eventually work out how to write a good strong female lead. we've got quite a bit of suffering ahead of us, though

generally, this. no one complains about Sarah Connor in T2

Their welfare program was nothing like in the West and forced labour was one of the key principles. Basically everyone worked and was forced to work, just the productivity was low as fuck due them working to work and not to create value. Kinda like MIC.

Of course it wasn't like in the West.
The Slavs didn't have pre-established wealth to waste on welfare programs. The equalization between forced labor to produce wealth that would be spent either on military or on welfare programs themselves which had to be maintained to keep happiness and stability ended up in fucked up situations like Ukraine happening, and bread lines.
Either way, the welfare programs didn't just reduce existing wealth and stonewall production, they also made people lazier until production stopped keeping up with expenditure and reached critical lows.

You Westerners are already experiencing ever decreasing growth parallel to the commie and socialist experiments you keep increasing and funneling, with some countries downright going the route of Slavs like for instance Southern Europeans.

Slavs have already experienced all of this shit.
You are only starting to gradually experience the deterioration of Communism and Socialism which have somehow creeped into your countries.
Just like the East, it will take a few decade for you to start feeling the heat, maybe more because of your pre-established wealth, but the inevitable won't change.

Easily the best female character currently on TV

This show portrays gynocentrism.

>House of cards sucks.

I don't think anyone hates a strong female character per se, but it's the way those characters usually are written and presented is what pisses people off. Typically it's this over the top sassy girl power cunt and every male character is presented as a bitch in contrast.

Because they write these characters as they imagine them.

This bitch actually commanded the scenes she was in and what do they do? Leave her out of the entire season

Because writers usually think that "Strong Female Characters" have to be fucking assholes in order to be "strong", which is incorrect.

In other words, being a bitch is equated with being "strong" in the eyes of many screenwriters.

There are strong female characters that don't attract a lot of hatred, e.g. furiosa, Wonder Woman, because they're not ducking cunts

Forced labour speaks against your "muh laziness" idea. They had much, much higher employment than most Western countries.

Welfare in Soviet Union was to ensure that no one starves, got a place to live, education and healthcare. Something US of A still can't achieve. It didn't help you to avoid work.

>You Westerners are already experiencing ever decreasing growth parallel to the commie and socialist experiments
We have pretty much the opposite. Our productivity is too high, and capitalism pretty much capped, so there are no jobs for some people and the number of jobs will further go down.

You only see growth in third world places due their economies and living standards being not developed enough.

Why did they kill of LeAnn????? Whyyyyyyyy. They always kill the hot ones.

>Forced labour speaks against your "muh laziness" idea.
On the contrary. Forcing labor isn't a solution to laziness, it introduces animus into the equations as well and things become even worse.
You can force a person to work, but that won't cure laziness, it will merely direct anger and animosity towards yourself and often even push the person even deeper into laziness as they now have moral justifications to give to themselves for it.

Because western writers think a strong female character has to be either an annoying cunt or a mary sue.

Obviously it's not a solution but it makes being actively lazy pretty damn hard. Just your lazy mindstate remains.

It would be better said that it makes a potential revolution all-the-more possible, kind of like already happened time and time again.

>there are people who seriously think she's dead

Not necessary. While it was not great for freedom the work itself was pretty chill and people did get their basics, so most didn't do anything against it. Hell, Stalin was and is still loved by quite a few people. Soviet Union got wrecked by inflexibility of their top brass. China showed how you can keep the state in charge and profit of capitalism.

People don't hate strong female characters.
People dislike lies and propaganda. Thus, they dislike unbelievable and falsely portrayed strong female characters.

Claire is an incredibly strong female character that I actually enjoy. Halle Berry was an amazingly strong character in Cloud Atlas :
imdb.com/title/tt1371111/.

That being said, the typical prototype of a skrong woman in hollywood productions tends to be shit tier propaganda. This is what people dislike... They dislike being lied to and manipulated.

Cute ploy diverting from this truth and making it about : hating strong female characters.

this
everyone who has died on the show has died very clearly on screen
Rachel is somewhat on an exception, probably due to the writers wanting an angle if the needed to bring her back. Though, we were given a strong indicator that she is dead. All that was shown about LeAnn was a wrecked car.

>China showed how you can keep the state in charge and profit of capitalism.
China treats systems as tools, not as religions or opinions to stand by.
That's why they are successful. They have analyzed Communism, Capitalism, Socialism, Democracy, Fascism, Nationalism, everything;
they have formed a positive and a negative list of effects for each set of tools and in which circumstances the positives or the negatives manifest; and following that they have assorted a cycling system such that each tool will be used for the circumstance warranting it.
Ergo to call China Communist or Capitalist or to in any way latch a static label to them is incorrect.
China uses multiple systems, like tools, for certain tasks.

I quite admire them for this wisdom, for emotionally detaching themselves from "belief" as a system.

Depends if Neve Campbell wants more money or not. That's all that his is.

unrealistic for the most part.

Other than the lack of a dead body (or any blood in the car crash scene), it would just be an incredibly underwhelming death scene for a major character, especially after her hookup with Doug.

Also, they already killed Tom and nearly killed Cathy. Adding another major character to their kill list would be a bit too hard to believe.

>President can just shove someone down the stairs

None of the labels is really THAT static either just vague, all of Europe and Murica got capitalism (and now Russia too) but noticeable different forms of it. Though yeah, China is more complicated due the socialist inspired structure but a very pragmatic approach to capitalistic values too.

The one thing I genuinely hope is that Claire doesn't somehow get away with being a giant piece of shit, just because she's a woman. I'm happy with how things are turning out but the fate of the underwoods should be at the VERY least, prison, and more appropriately, some brutal assassination.

>me
>ever hating Robin Wright

I don't even like the show, but I like her character.

It wasn't even a long fall, did Frank just cross his fingers and hope that she hits her head?

All the actors worth a fuck are trying to get off!

Remy wanted out, she did, and I've read rumors Doug didn't want to continue after this season.

>Remy wanted out
Makes sense after Moonlight.

Not true at all, look at nausicaa of the valley of the wind, a Miyazaki film and manga. The main character is slightly Mary Sue in her competence and power over others, but she's likable because she's not a fuckin bitch, she protects others, she's smart, etc
