One problem is that we use the word β€œdebate” to refer to both any sort of reasoned argument between opposed viewpoints and a very specific kind of stylized verbal performance art that is somewhere between useless for & actively hostile to truth or persuasion.

Welcome to America where burning your own flag is now more illegal than smearing actual human shit on the walls of our capitol building.

I have never had the urge to burn the American flag, but better to burn the flag than to wipe your ass with the constitution.

Sometimes movies are an escape, and sometimes movies are an opportunity to reflect on the racial dynamics of our ever-changing society and how they manifest in film. If that back half is your cup of tea, give us a like and a follow.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

I’d rather not pardon Ghislaine Maxwell, but if we must, I propose pardoning Luigi Mangione at the same time. And same place.

Crazy that Trump very well may pardon Diddy.

They do say Diddy is a slippery man though.
