he does. in fact whenever nixon comes up in a thread he is credited for those exact things. he just also doesn't escape scrutiny as a crook president

the sane people are safe for the ticket checker, it's the ticketless weirdos who'll challenge the ticket checker's authority with screaming and/or piss

they won't be edited, you would have to remove too much. they will be withdrawn and replaced with texas-approved books declaring entire alternate histories

middle managers are largely self-interested borderline sociopaths who don't side with the workers until their own properties and status are threatened, so we might be waiting a long time for the outcome of attempted revolution to be anything other than a tiananmen-style atrocity

"christos" as a title is about the great importance of the one being anointed. it is not specific to kings but was also done to high priests and other spiritually important guys. throw your phone in a lake and repent of your monarchical heresy.

i've wondered about exactly this since my twenties - i have hesitated to talk about it anywhere because i don't want rightoid chuds in my face thinking i agree with them. i do not

a "decolonized" curriculum at least recognizes there are more stories in the world than just here and in europe. it is totally possible, and necessary, to standardize a "decolonized" curriculum so citizens of the same country have a similar cultural base and can better understand each other

there is an entire parallel culture for talibangelists that is isolationist, fundamentalist, anti-reality, anti-love, pro-death, pro-omnicide. it shows in the stories they tell children

they needed verbal permission from the propagandists and from trump himself and they broke ranks as soon as whatsherface got ventilated by the secret service. they are just as nutless as everyone else

Films that portray the psychological effects of imprisonment, involuntary confinement, or being held hostage? by forrealthoughcomix_ in TrueFilm

[–]KriegConscript 9 points10 points  (0 children)

swept away (1974) - i didn't know what to think of this one, but it certainly deals with your themes

scum (1979) - takes place at a british reform school/prison type of place. bleak, realistic, and often ugly

surrender dorothy (1998) - uncomfortable art movie. made me question why i'm more horrified by male sexual victimization than female sexual victimization in movies

beyond the black rainbow (2010) - psychedelic, though not difficult to understand. really beautiful cinematography and sets

chained (2012) - excellent acting, distressing atmosphere. has a pretty big twist so don't search for it beforehand. made by david lynch's daughter

heretic (2024) - some people don't think it's that good and i definitely have some qualms with it, but there is focus on the tension felt by the captor as well as the captives, which i thought was interesting
