Roaring 20s Redux
@mishoiliev.bsky.social
Lives in Belgium. Politics. History. Used to do law then got a degree in economics. Fan of Keynesian economics, therefore, by MAGA’s standards, I am a communist 😂
And I never thought about it but indeed the storyline in Quantum of Solace is actually a very realistic one, especially compared to the typically fanciful ones in the other Bond films I watched after that.

Agree with all those points.

Back then I had no expectations at all but then I was riveted from the start by the car chase scene and then by many other things. The Opera at Bergenz too, which I had visited for the first and only time just a year before the release of the film, played a role too!

I know it’s universally considered very mediocre. But liking something can be highly subjective and irrational.

Craig plays Bond the same way in all movies, same vibe, etc.

My favourite is Quantum of Solace. Just because it’s the first I watched, I was in the mood for it, etc. Then I bought the DVD and watched again several times.

These things are highly subjective.

Two points though:

- US authorities arrest and extradite also legal immigrants,
- illegal immigrants often have IRS registrations, pay taxes, have valid US driving licenses, etc. which makes them semi-legal.

Not to mention that American businesses apparently need them as workers.

Why do you think so many leftists call Obama a neoliberal?

Or why the left-leaning youth in the UK calls Blair neoliberal?

The other way of thinking about this is that Democrats moved to the right and the working class felt betrayed.

Bury seems to say that this is a bubble but better not to short. Do nothing in this case.
