Fear and hunger; At least let me be one of the atrocities serving one of the mad gods
I am not an irritable person, but the ending of the whale Made me get up from my seat and yell “OH COME ON!” To the screen; Frustrating, corny , manipulative misery porn.
I agree with the Dune movies and in particular I think I don’t like Denis Villeneuve; He takes a cute sci fi short story like “stories of your life” and turns it into a very self important dull thing. Then he takes a Novel about flying through space with drugs and doing guerriilla warfare while riding sand worms and it all feels so somber and rigid. Man has no fun in him.
You are all getting portable incineration in car free of charge and you complain?! Some people are impossible to please!
He has always been a mad grifter, our biggest problem and threat is that now he has more power and won’t think think to use it.
Props to Americans who create these monsters, they rather have their balls in a vice than regulate anything.
You are writing fanfiction here, I don’t think any serious leftist wants things to go sour for the US. As a leftist from outside the USA i often warn that the moment America crumbles we will all be struck by the sharpnell. If you take up some actual leftist literature, say some Noam Chomsky, some Baudrillard, some Felix Guattari, the overall feeling is " the contradictions of capitalism will mount and things will get considerably worse. " a lot of them suggest ideas on how to prevent these maladies, I’d recommend Guattari’s “Cartographies of desire” but sadly the USA seems like is on it’s full speed on course to ruin: facism in it’s government going progressively shameless, the over finatialization of it’s economy, the fact that political division and misinformation has been a strategy to undermine democracy used by both political parties, Oligarchy being so eager to turn “feudal” and several crisis of education. Things will get bad not because leftists wish it so, but because it will seem miraculous if they get better.
Either way, Americans have never cared whst leftists have to say. Their mere words will not change your reality.
