I always say that the mistake filmmakers make is that they don't want to make their character truly cringe. You've got to have the Fight Club guy go into his room and the walls are covered with underage anime characters and he wanks himself to sleep while clutching a body pillow and dirty talking to it.

Actually, Marxists should let capitalists do all the bad things and never oppose them.

pointing out bad things is anti-Marxist
I would argue that pointing out bad things is an essential first step in Marxism.
The coming climate apocalypse is bad.
You moron. You swine. You sniveling worm. Can't you see that pointing out that something is bad when you can't fix it is anti-materialist!?
Yeah taking into account R1 and the OT it seems like Mothma gets dragged along through the revolution by the more radical wing of her faction, pretty sure she isn't relevant at all in the grand scheme until after the Empire is defeated and she becomes a politician in the New Republic (and fails to stop the First Order from rising lmao).
he wishes he had a dragon so he could attack Moscow
Did he even read his own books? My takeaway from them was definitely not "all of our problems can be solved by an application of incredible violence".
can we dwell for a moment on how obscenely good that drummer/keyboardist is? god damn.
damn you went right for the throat
Even in direct comparison Paperclip comes out looking a lot more :sus-deep: than the Soviet equivalent. The Soviets grabbed middle managers and working engineers, while the Americans grabbed the people in charge and whoever came along with them. The Soviets put German scientists on teams headed by Soviet scientists, the Americans put high profile "former" Nazis in charge of American military programs. When the work was done, the Soviet German scientists were sent back to the Germany of their choice with a paycheck and anonymity, while America gave their German scientists fame by centering them in propaganda and publicly excusing their crimes. There's a reason Nazis did everything they could to surrender to America, meanwhile in order to get their scientists the Soviets showed up in the middle of the night with guns.
Half your age plus seven, a nineteen year old is an adult and they can make their own decisions. As long as the 26 year old isn't their boss or some other category with power over the 19 year old it's fine.
Soon all artists will be expected to use AI generation as a part of their process. Art will be so devalued that it will be the only way to make enough volume of work to make a living off of it. Resist all you might, but capitalism beat the luddites and it beat the communes and it will beat freelance artists too.

I agree, we should add 10,000 to the CE in order to make the cutoff point the invention of agriculture.
