Movies Eli Roth to direct Borderlands movie
Reputator replied to number305's topic in The Performing Arts Centre
I really think at this point Cate Blanchett is at the IDGAF stage of her career, where she reached astronomical heights of fame and notoriety decades ago and whose name is already etched in the pantheon of legendary actors known for timeless roles in film. What's left for her to do? Oh, I guess Shlock it up with the most outlandish projects she can find (that can actually afford her). -
This quote here from the end of the article really lays out the long-term goal: This is a war. It doesn't matter if their views are popular or not, that doesn't factor into their strategy. In fact it only HELPS their narrative of Christian persecution. They've known for a long time the voting population has been moving away from extremist Christian views. They've been playing the long game. They don't need or care about the will of the people. The goal through gerrymandering, voter registration restrictions, eliminating polling places in minority communities and on college campuses, and most recently when they upped the ante drastically with the fake elector scheme, voter intimidation, hindering or elimination of mail-in ballots, and the Jan 6 insurrection... That's the real game. Systematic dismantling of the systems of democracy, while sowing the seeds of mistrust among Conservatives in the integrity of our elections. Convince enough people you're right, and put the right people in positions of judicial power, and you have all the pieces for ending democracy, and you didn't even need the majority to do it.

Just starting to see some of these videos getting posted. Yeah there are flaws but ot the untrained eye, ie most people probably wouldn't be able to tell. And if we got this far this fast, I don't see those flaws lasting very long. And yeah frankly it's a bit terrifying. I don't know that humanity collectively has the intelligence to cope with this new reality.

I recall 20+ years ago they had something akin to hyponosis that was supposed to change how the brain processes the pain. Or something. Unfortunately I didn't stick with it but I wish I did.

It's a little bit of both-sidesism, which, if I'm being honest when the polls are this razer tight, should we really be taking shots at the only person standing in the way of "The Return of Voldemort", as they said? I don't know, they're valid criticisms so it's hard to disagree, but I'm not sure whatever objective he's trying to achieve is the best one to pursue at this exact moment.
