@Acyn Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but if they had impeached and convicted him, they would’ve been able to get in a new confirmation during GOP-controlled Congress. Now, they’re giving the reins of confirmation to next year’s Democrat-controlled Congress?
@BaconOTPeople@PepperKittyCat0@AlecStapp You’re not gonna believe me but they explore this very bias about the film being from Nathan’s perspective within the film itself
@BaconOTPeople@AlecStapp The documentary is self-aware of this though. It isn’t really about trying to relitigate the truth but exploring how these people warp others into their alternate reality including even the filmmakers themselves (which, again, is alluded to in the doc).
@jimmythelazy@IljaRedacted@leosghost415 So if we’re referring to the AI slop cartoon, is owning a Stanley cup and Sephora makeup a part of life under capitalism that you simply can’t avoid?
@GEvans96 Complaining about Fossil Fools being heavy-handed is the same complaint Tom Cruise’s character has about the play. But you’re watching the movie about the play, not the play.
@GEvans96 The climate change disaster can be interchanged with any other human-made catastrophe but the play and how it’s conceived by its director and actors and received by the audience within the movie is commentary on how we consume political art/satire itself.
@MetaReflexive The film starts by assuming we all already agree these powerful men are horrible. The interesting it says is how we allow them to get away with it.
@MetaReflexive The forces are outside of our control and yet we keep buying the things they sell us, manufactured through said forces. Look at how much everyone is freaking out about inflation bc of the war in Iran, which has actually reduced our oil usage.
@sgcafan@CarlosCMTF Do they? Because those reviews (and you) keep talking about climate change when that’s not really the main point of the film. You’re watching Fossil Fools, not Digger.
