Cinema of Resistance, Issue 1: Bloodsucking and Goosestepping with NIGHT PATROL - Cinapse
Welcome to Cinema of Resistance, a semi-monthly column highlighting films of all genres and styles with one thing in common - a desire to shed light on, fight against, and/or stick it to authoritarian...
cinapse.co
I launched a new column on @cinapse.bsky.social today & began with @ryanprows.bsky.social’s NIGHT PATROL because it has been on my mind. Minor spoilers, but nothing that will ruin the film for you. In fact, go see it this weekend while it’s still in theaters nationwide!

That may be the first accurate thing Kristi Noem has ever said, because not a day has gone by without my hearing about her and the lawless departments she oversees.

Let me get this straight, Trump hangs a photo of him & Putin in the Palm Room of the White House - then 1 day later claims it's Obama's "manufactured evidence" that makes people think he colluded with Russia?

There are many skeletons in Trump’s cabinet.
The autopsy showed Mary Kennedy, then going through a messy divorce with estranged husband RFK Jr., had her fingers between her neck and the noose, as if having second thoughts.
A former NYC Medical Examiner said: “I have investigated many, many suicides by hanging and I’ve never seen that.” 2/2

Bovino was forced out of Minnesota because the American people stood firm. Tens of thousands of people took to the streets in below-freezing temps to peacefully defend their neighbors & freedoms.

This is just misleading. There is a big difference between saying state resources can’t be used to enforce fed’l civil immigration policy & local cops refusing to assist fed’l partners in an emergency. Deliberately conflating the two is disingenuous.

Just a reminder that both Ilhan Omar and Maxwell Frost have been attacked this week.
No outrage by right-wing media or even corporate media.
Now imagine if this were done to Republicans.
The entire system is rigged in favor of conservatives, folks. The double standards are just wild.

TOM HOMAN: “We’re going to create a database where those people that are arrested for interference, impeding and assault, we’re going to make them famous. We’re going to put their face on TV. We’re going to let their employers, in their neighborhoods, in their schools, know who these people are.”
