This is what I thought! I haven’t heard it, but I think he appeared in an interview program that was all about how awful he thought his dad was! I mean, wtf?!

That’s part of the design. People kept in a permanent state of precarity are often the most afraid of losing what little they have. FUD has always been the weapon of choice among the ruling class.

She probably thinks writing weird stuff in a solemn tone makes her sound more reasonable. It just makes her sounds like a serial killer...

I wouldn't call that joy. Material comfort and success aren't nothing; we all got to eat. But people with success are rarely living the life they truly want; just the life they think they're supposed to have. Which is often its own kind of prison and misery.

And it give *me* joy to believe that! 😉

I think your critic is envious of the joy you must feel at your sales; a joy they only dream about ever experiencing.

Everything is already broken. Nothing is right in a world where this is real.

So much centrist liberal fan-fiction of politics!

I mostly remember the kumbaya moments. Like Donna's GOP lawyer boyfriend throwing away his GOP career to stand up to partisanship, *after* helping Josh cover for her perjury! Even back then, that was some Harlequin romance fan-faction of politics! 😂

At the time, I was struck more by Sorkin's fetish-ising of the military. I mean, he has form, but it was on a stalker-level and so in-your-face, that you couldn't miss it and just very weird.

Entertaining show, but the centrist politics does not stand up to scrutiny.

Wasn't that the period when Aaron Sorkin was just doing coke 24/7?

There is literally a bit about this in the first season of Black Adder. For those who know what that means. (Not specifically about gay people, but about heaven being filled with boring square people.)

They meant, "tomorrow". Never again when tomorrow comes. So not yet. But tomorrow. And tomorrow. And tomorrow...

That's because 9/11 was a perceived external threat. This is a reaction to wide-spread internal dissent and resistance, which is always the greater perceived threat to those who seek to rule.

The Gods are angry and those in power are powerless to stop it!

Call me cynical, but I don't believe the issue is for these people and entities to recognise what the problem is. I'm pretty sure they know what they're looking at...
