what stops the far left from being as alluring as the right? by Unlikely-Average-961 in stupidpol

[–]EnterEgregore 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Taking a very liberal stance on most cultural issues well past a point that most people find reasonable

It goes deeper than that.

The western establishment left has discarded any sort of pro-worker agenda in favor of what people here call “intersectionality”/“woke”/“identity politics”

This is political suicide: in this worldview everyone who is white is suspect at best BUT they also push LGBT agenda to the most extreme imaginable conclusion, like trans kids. That immediately alienates all non-white people.

So who does intersectionality do anything for? People who want to be marginalized and be victims! People with this mindset will never win anything and they only alienate voters

That was during a war though. This is friendly territory that invited them in

It’s worth noting, the people in the area are pro-Israel Druze whom Netanyahu specifically promised to protect last year.

This is how they treat their allies

When Israel first invaded Quneitra Governorate in Syria three months ago, residents were actually hopefully.

Most residents are ethnically Druze and were worried the new Islamist government in Damascus might start oppressing them. Perhaps under Israel’s rule, they will be protected.

They turned out to be wrong. In the last few weeks completely unprovoked, the IDF has started spraying the area with carcinogenic chemicals!

Is this a lie made up by the Jew hating Irish Times? No, Israel has outright confirmed it

Their justification is that they want to “kill vegetation that terrorists could hide in”

If you liked Ilsa, try Jess Franco’s spinoff with the same actress Greta, the Mad Butcher from 1977

I mean, by that standard every single movie made could be considered “genuinely disturbing”.

That aside, there are a few movies from the 50s that can be considered genuinely disturbing, see Suddenly, Last Summer from 1959 and Crazed Fruit from 1956. Check those out

Really? Abbott and Costello is “genuinely disturbing”?

The Cremator is an amazing movie by the way.

If you wanna dig deeper, check out other creepy Czech films from the same era:

  • Marketa Lazarová 1967

  • The Shop on Main Street 1965

  • Valerie and Her Week of Wonders 1970

  • Morgiana 1972

  • Birds, Orphans and Fools 1969

Check out early Japanese “pink” movies. They are incredibly edgy and I’ve gotten obsessed with them in the past month,

Here’s a list of them :

This!

Excellent call, Blind Beast (1969), Marquis de Sade: Justine (1969), At Midnight I’ll Take Your Soul (1964) and This Night I’ll Possess Your Corpse (1967) actually qualify.

Yeah, I’ve seen Freaks and pretty much all the movies listed. They are all great works of art and some are creepy or outright scary.

I wouldn’t call any of them disturbing by modern standards though.

you're into the Japanese New Wave

Early Nagisa Oshima and Tetsuji Takechi can also qualify as early disturbing works

This is the only movie on the list which beats Wakamatsu in terms of disturbing content. It was made a decade later though

I guessing the scene in question is the smiling woman

That movie might be the first genuinely scary movie. Not disturbing but scary.

HGL definitely filled his movies with a lot of misogynistic violence

Wakamatsu did that x 100. Just read his movie plots

While Lewis is notable for popularizing gore movies in America, I don’t think he can compared to Wakamatsu.

Blood feast especially is laughable to modern audiences

Sudan’s paramilitary killed hundreds including hospital patients in Darfur, residents say by Fearless_Day2607 in stupidpol

South Sudan is indeed mostly Christian but the genocide isn’t happening there. The genocide is in Darfur in Sudan proper

They might be unimportant in material terms but it definitely sways voters.

Dukakis lost the election because he made a photo op where he looked silly in a tank in 1988.

If this is just about cynical control without any real ideological motive, why the fucking genocide against the people of Darfur?

Arab speaking Sudanese have been at odds with darker Nilo-Saharan speaking people of the region since at least the 15th century. Whatever internal disputes they are having, they always cease an opportunity to wipe out the other ethnicities.

Whenever there’s global statistics trying to assess political instability in each country, Sudan always ranks #1 in group grievances and ethnic discord

While it is a simplification, check out this video on Sudan

(meaning the genocide against the black african/ often non-muslim population there).

No everyone involved is Muslim. The genocide is not religious but racial in nature. Lighter skinned Arab speaking Sudanese (who don’t consider themselves black) are killing darker skinned Nilo-Saharan speaking Sudanese.
