So it's not enough that Rambo is getting an origin story he really doesn't need (mainly because FIRST BLOOD *is* his origin story), but they're going to take the "kinder and lighter" approach to showing what happened to Rambo in Vietnam that left him deeply traumatized in the first place?

Remembrance Sunday is a day to mourn the senseless loss of life and to say, never again. With that in mind, how can people turn a blind eye to the deliberate attempt to erase trans people from existence?

Mamdani, Greens and others shouldn't really be seen as radical. Rather, they should be seen as a return to the tradition of Roosevelt and Attlee. A return to the common sense social policies that were sidelined by 40 years of a trickle-down experiment that led nowhere.

Two ideas defined the 1930s. Fascism on the right and Roosevelt's New Deal on the left. The only one to survive was Roosevelt's – until "trickle-downers" started dismantling it in the 1980s. Roosevelt's New Deal is worth cheching out, as it seems to be what folk are looking for again.
