Elon Musk is a very flawed man and “X” is the worst rebranding in history, but what is the alternative to the relentless flow of lies and propaganda from the mainstream media?
The French student protesters’ demands are clear: smaller class sizes, more teachers, and better classroom conditions. newyorker.com/news/the-lede/…
Why do city mayors think they can veto federal law? Why should we take any of these people seriously when they talk about “democracy”?
California will not be intimidated by Trump's fear campaign. He's afraid because he knows he's losing.

People mad at @JosephKahn when The Hollywood Reporter puts out articles like “Why Progress Means Hiring People That Look Like Me”.
After a couple years of major progress, creators of color are seeing “real regression,” the president of the TV Academy tells THR.
When #Emmyssowhite began trending after white actors swept the lead and supporting acting categories during the Sept. 14 ceremony, it unearthed a reality deeper than the demand for equal acclaim: Actors of color can’t win accolades for roles that don’t exist.
“The Emmys ultimately reflect the work that makes it to our screens, and this year’s results are another reminder that progress is not linear,” Television Academy chair Cris Abrego says in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter. “We have seen meaningful gains in representation across our industry, but we have also seen real regression, and we cannot take progress for granted.”

Vance: Socialism in America is about mass immigration.
Backlash: Acktually, it’s an economic policy!

I don't care about video games, but this is a dystopian view of art in the world of AI.
Consuming art is a way to see the world through the lens and talents of another person. Narcissism is wanting that experience personalized.
These people are dangerous totalitarians that would cannibalize the film industry, which, due to the expense of making a movie, must appeal to more than a select few woke retards on Twitter.

People are upset at Glen Powell for staying quiet on politics but he’s right.
It’s so divisive. People are so unhinged.
And people aren’t even reading his Esquire cover story. They’re so busy calling him privileged when he literally talks about how he grew up poor and couldn’t help his parents when they both got cancer. That’s why he had the desire to make money. That’s called perseverance.
Skydance is going to disrupt Hollywood so we have to stop with the insane politics. When the Rock got political, all it did was backfire on him and make him less liked. Jennifer Lawrence recognized this. She gets it.
The average person wants to watch a talented person be talented. You want to watch someone in a film and get lost in the story. Celebrities used to be mysterious and that’s why we were fascinated by them.
The average person wants love. They want to be healthy. They want to be safe. Human nature is the same and has been for centuries. Just because someone has a different view on how we get there, it doesn’t make them evil.

Skid Row is a humanitarian disaster. Not to mention the rampant animal cruelty, testing drugs on dogs and other atrocities. This is long overdue.

Vance is not correct about the historic meaning of socialism, but the strain of DSA/American socialism is much more strident about open borders and transvestite privileges than any economic plan for the working class.
Politics-obsessed progressives ruined film culture.
Horror, however, is the easiest way for indie filmmakers to get projects financed. There’s lots of bad horror, but this is a genre that allows for low budgets and no stars.

October 6, 2023 was the last day I believed I didn't share a country with a constituency of people who lacked souls.

🚨 HOLY CRAP! President Trump is now posting that we only have two options
"Deport every single 3rd world migrant, illegal alien and America hating Visa holder..."
"...or surrender your nation the way the UK have, and watch your society collapse in the coming years."
I bet Stephen Miller loves reading this. IT'S TIME TO SAVE AMERICA!
