if jd vance doesn't have to go to prison for assassinating the pope, we need to drop the charges against luigi mangione, it's only fair

Rewatched Network (1976), which I feel only gets more relevant with age.

"There is no America. There is no democracy. There is only IBM, and ITT, and AT&T, and DuPont, Dow, Union Carbide, and Exxon."

Agree or die horribly.
This is how the West negotiates while the media is silent
