Thing about BOAN is that it collapses the minute you simply say "Prove it" to its many, many claims.
American epic feature films were pioneered by women years before BOAN was released. The film techniques it "invented" were done years and even decades prior.
You don't need to give it a cookie.
I did a thread a while ago about how BOAN has used fake firsts and claims of artistry to burrow deep into classic film fandoms
bsky.app/profile/movi...
The next step is to ask them how many movies they have seen that were made between 1895 and 1914 (BOAN was released in 1915)
If they're so certain it invented everything, they must have watched a lot of those early movies, right?
Right?
Guys?
This is the classic BOAN defense:
"It invented EVERYTHING in the movies, just everything, you can't make it political... Seen it? No, I haven't seen it but it's terribly important!"

What's going on in Israel re: propaganda, so ppl know:
Was talking to family there this AM & they had TV on. It was reported to me (w/eyeroll) that there was a segment on "what a tough masculine hottie" Hegseth is, "with the tattoos and everything."
"Did they mention the Nazi tattoo?"
"What?!?"

I demand UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER of the Epstein Filesโand then your title of "President of the United States," and your liberty to walk freely in public.
That would be GREAT & ACCEPTABLE.
Homeland Security @DHSgov X.com SPRING BREAK UNDER SIEGE. The Democrats' DHS shutdown has led to HOURS long security lines at airports across the country, leading Americans to miss their spring break flights. There is ZERO reason for spring break travel to be held hostage for political points โ Democrats must end this DHS shutdown NOW.
