Tony Gilroy says the 'clown car in Washington' appears to be using the same 'Fascism for Dummies' playbook he referenced when writing the Empire in 'Andor'
"it’s the same shit all the time. Get rid of truth, get rid of a free press, destroy communities, nationalize the businesses, find an arbitrary enemy that you can elevate and false flag them through propaganda. Flood the zone with as much gak and atrocity as you can so that nobody can pay attention to what just happened, and pray that you have an overwhelming majority of sheep that will follow you. It’s just tragically and sadly familiar. It’s on them; it’s not on us"
On AI regulation, he says 'there [couldn't] be a worse bunch of clowns in charge of it right now'
"You couldn’t set the bar any lower than where it’s being set in Washington right now"
