@TruthScarier@annlau613@Madmaddingcrowd I think some people were unaware of him before MeToo. He was called Harvey Scissorhands for years. I read Biskind’s book in 2004 and even then people were calling him a monster.
It’s Vietnam’s national high school exam season. One essay question in literature praised Elon Musk, Steven & Mark Zuckerberg as ‘technological innovators’ and asked students to respond how a ‘Vietnamese Steve Jobs’ can be made. Such primitive worship for oligarchy & capitalism.

@dimitripilled One of my pet peeves is when someone says, "I can’t believe this movie was doing this and it’s nearly 50 years old!" It’s meant as a compliment but it sounds backhanded and presentist.
@thamosdeaf Aside from the wrongness of the post, that bothered me as well. It's received wisdom, but from a much older era, so it's even less convincing. She sounds like Mort Rifkin.
@regularaugust Yes. As a 37-year-old, I already lived through this, when The Dark Knight and LOTR entered the top 10 on the IMDb list. It's not the S&S list, calm down.
