Reminds me of Kim il Sung that said, “It’s better to close up like a clam until the war is over.”, very wise words to live by.

What set US cinema apart from other established cinema markets past WW2 were the gutsy mid-budget movies like Rocky or the bold over-the-top high budget popcorn flick like Back to the Future or Star Wars. The fact that Hollywood studios were willing to gamble on something quirky but high quality that might not succeed like say Willow, was the reason American movies fucking dominated.

Most European cinema scenes stuck to low budget art cinema that was basically a student film that will never see wide release or relatively high budget but uber-safe productions with actors that are established in the nation and boilerplate subject manner.

But thanks to Marvel Studios and endless sequels, prequels, and remakes mean that Hollywood has fallen to a weird niche of ultra-high budget but safe boilerplate productions. It’s just so stale.

And yet a good deal of traitors (or “defectors”) to South Korea choose to move back because they say life is MISERABLE there.

It’s crazy how much of the American tech industry are all these unprofitable endeavors being propped up by investors with no hope of profit in the near future. I feel like it is going to end with a DotCom bubble bursting but a million times worse.

For the love of God, don’t the Ukrainians get that they’re being used as pawns to bleed Russia in a war that they have no hope of winning? Ukraine as a nation is on an IV drip of poison.

I would however love to hang out in that steamroller.

The second debate should just have both Biden and Trump die of old age on air.

But Xinjiang is part of China…

What’s the difference?

I loved this.

The firebombing of Tokyo, and the nukes on Hiroshima and Nagasaki were totally genocide events. The Japanese military had already been in total disarray since the Nazis and fascists fell and the war was already understood as lost and Japanese military were drafting a surrender. But the US saw that the USSR had taken advantage of the fact that the British and French were cooked, Germany, and Italy defeated and Spain still recovering from the civil war, meaning basically anyone that could stop them in Europe had been neutralized. So Moscow, despite being EXHAUSTED by one of the most brutal wars in world history, kept pressing on and liberating Eastern Europe.

The US had the nuke though by then, but it was completed far too late to really be used in battle. The US Army and Navy were constantly pressing the President to authorize their use, but Truman refused on the grounds that they’ll look cruel. However when Truman was informed on what the USSR was doing, he had the political urgency to finish the theater of war with Japan ASAP, he couldn’t target military facilities… not enough shock value… it would have to deliberately target civilians. The US only possessed those two bombs but had all the material and know-how to make 2 to 4 bombs a week if needed, however the Japanese didn’t know how many the US had or not. So the US committed a Japanese genocide by annihilating the three most populated cities in the nation, with the intent to be seen as so brutal that they surrender immediately so the US can concentrate on holding down Europe. Especially since many of the American military top brass were convinced that the US and USSR were going to go to war in Europe because the US just wasn’t going to allow the Soviets to take over Britain and France especially but Empires throughout history that the US desperately wanted to command under the new “Pax Americana”…

Thank God that Biden isn’t a lying, racist, narcissist like Trump, right? Right?
