you have been spoiled by the cinematography of the modern age. almost 100% of all the camera tricks from the last 70 years of film history came from Citizen Kane.
Yup. I think Citizen Kane’s story is mid, but the cinematography is absolute divine. The more I think about Citizen Kane, the more I see why it’s a classic. While watching the movie, it didn’t feel like an old movie at all! The extreme low angle shot is still in my mind many years after watching Citizen Kane.
It’s definitely a community in Reddit. At first I didn’t take them seriously but now I realise it isn’t a joke. It may have been run by Heritage Foundation.
Ever since Trump’s full turn to fascism, I haven’t seen an ex friend post something far right on Facebook.
I also wonder what my ex housemate thinks of Trump now. He supported Trump because of promise of being anti-war.
Oh people. Insecurities really make people’s brain turn to mush. It’s especially bad for insecure men. As a guy, I am glad I was taught at early age to not give in to insecurities and that I should embrace my individuality.
Economists said that Kamala was a better choice but people thought otherwise.
Most people don’t realise Nazi Germany was on a brink of another economic collapse before Poland was invaded.
Hitler invaded Poland to plunder the country to stave off another impending economic collapse of Germany, thanks to his runaway excessive government spending. In that sense, he was distracting the Germans from being revealed on how bad of an administrator he was. Trump invaded Venezuela and wants to annex Greenland to distract people from the fact that he is a pedophile. And that’s a helluva weirder reason to go to war for distraction…
the reality is the world’s reliance on US financial and tech companies makes things like sanctions and embargoes effectively impossible.
Yeah, and I find it funny that there were plenty of naive and emotional calls to sanction US demanding world leaders to stand up to Trump. Good luck to them, it’s easier for them to make demands since they don’t make the decisions.
The Guardian can be too left for me in some cases but I agree that they are more trustworthy. The fact that The Guardian was originally founded with sympathy to those killed by the government for demanding democratic reforms says it all.
The mistake is coming forward to the New York Times and WaPo. NYT has liberal bias (before anyone come at me, they are liberal with capital L) although I am ambivalent to the organisation for the most part. WaPo…need I say more who owns it?
You know what I’m thinking, I applaud that the Gen Z are into fitness and wellness. But they are influenced by the right through social media, and the right are probably conditioning kids so that they will be fit for a future war. It sounds conspiratorial, but the Heritage Foundation is already dictating social policies in America and beyond. Steve Bannon is their dark missionary by evangelising abroad and wanting the EU to fragment.
Are you saying you don’t have a job?
But you’ll oppose anyone who tries to make that a reality.
Huh? Oh sorry, we already have those basic rights in Europe. But it doesn’t make me a terminally online tankie 😂
I have no problem with free education and healthcare and those on unemployment benefits, but a terminally online tankie don’t really deserve it…
Yes, I am an anti-monarchist, and not terminally online unlike you
Cry more for handouts while being terminally online.
An .ml user telling someone to get a job? Oh the irony.
Yes but it’s the survival instinct ingrained into our consciousness by the cosmos is kicking in. I’ve imagined it multiple times and I still feel dread.
All my investments in energy and utilities are in renewable sector. It’s been doing well so far, if I do say so myself. To my knowledge, the companies I invested in are pretty ethical. I mean, green renewables are seen as the saviour and good guys industry compared to oil and gas.
I just realised my incorrect wording. I meant it is not uncommon for ordinary folks to bet their entire life savings and even home.
The Nazis remilitarized which spurred short term economic growth, which was then used to pay for the extremely generous social welfare benefits to the Germans, who were appreciative of this because they were deeply traumatised by hyperinflation of the Great Depression. But this excessive government spending is turning the German wallets inside out; and the plunder of conquered nations gave Nazi Germany some needed cash injection to keep their economy going. If you don’t believe me, look up Hjalmar Schacht, Hitler’s economic minister, who warned the fuhrer that the state’s finances were nearly out in the late 1930s. Schacht’s savvy financial acumen had kept the Nazi German economy running longer than it should have been. He was dubbed the “dark wizard of finance”, partly because his confiscation of Jewish assets, before the war, yielded the Nazis much needed finances.
