To be clear, this weird incel is saying ALL OF THIS overdramatic, misanthropic shit because he saw ONE. SINGLE. PERSON. Say that she didn’t like the prequels a few days ago, and he apparently has locked himself in a room with his computer and a week’s supply of canned beans and water ever since.
The problem with most online discussion about film is that too many people think that the role of films is to make them feel good about how they already think about the world.
People don't want to watch movies to feel things anymore. They want to watch movies to not feel things.

Unsurprising to me that a writer for the military industrial complex defending New York Times would publicly bash a film brave enough to suggest corruption in the US intelligence agencies, as Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever does.

As far as I know not a single sitting Dem senator has demanded Schumer’s resignation as leader.
Not one.

Important to understand this. There's a reasonable chance that your Dem Senator who voted against it and is acting mad now was in on the play. It's the same reason why they scheduled the surrender for AFTER the election this week. They didn't want people pissed at Dems right before an election.
The caucus meeting was just to orchestrate who would fall on the sword but not be up for a vote in 2026.
so currently defectors are:
Kaine (2030)
Shaheen (Retiring)
Hasan (2028)
Fetterman (2028)
Durbin (Retiring)
CCM (2028)
Rosen (2030)
King (2030)

Truly amazing that any time the democrats have to bite the bullet and do something that ruins countless lives, there's always *just* enough votes to get it done, but if there is a vote on something that would actually improve people's lives, they are always one vote short. Crazy how that happens.
