Tried to send an email to @thedailybeast.bsky.social editor re: their Glengarry Glen Ross review but their mailbox is full - consider this an open letter to every critic who wants art that will tell them what to think

I want this to be very crystal clear.

It's true we all fucking hate you, you suck, you appeasing genocidal cowards and you brought us into fascism through sheer incompetence, I hope you all get primaried by armed trans radicals

One thing I should've mentioned in the last sentence here is that Jesse James was also a Confederate, racist bushwhacker whose actions became a symbol for fucking over Reconstruction. Romantic and ruthless, sure, but also a bigoted bastard who murdered lots of innocent people
