@AngryEwok1138 @zei_squirrel And in America George Lucas can only make a movie critical of Richard Nixon and American imperialism in Vietnam 30 years after the fact in the 90s, how free we are to follow the market's edicts.
@AngryEwok1138 @zei_squirrel That's his point, Lucas said most movies are bad and I want to also make movies that are bad bad(commercially unviable). And there are a ton of legitimately great soviet films, Mother Joan, Stalker, Come and See, ect..
Jean-Luc Mรฉlenchon, leader of France's left coalition NUPES: "If I'm Prime Minister on Monday, Julian will be naturalized a French citizen and we will ask for him to be sent to us. Mr. Assange should be decorated for his services to the French people."
@adamdavidson Life is so brutally unfair, the media will rehabilitate all of them in time. At Bill Clintons funeral there will be millions lined up and wailing like it's north Korea, meanwhile...
