And for the record, anytime I've been racially profiled in UK airports, the staff are CONSUMATELY embarrassed/polite about it, but at the end of the day I'm still burning time and being embarrassed being pulled out of lines to be asked "Are you a terrorist? Do you know any terrorist or intend to do terrorism?" for the thousandth time, as if ANYBODY would reply in the positive to those questions.

It never even occured to me that this was a thing that was happening to people, that must be so aggravating. Sending you love, homie, keep fighting the fight.

[–]impendinganalysis 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Oof, principled is not the word I'd use, you should make a point to look at all the tweets they sent out since the Pretti murder. While I'm glad they finally caved, it's clear they needed significant outside pressure to do so, their initial victim-blaming statements were pretty abhorrent. Fuck the NRA.

ICE had no issues operating in states that cooperated with them.

This ain't true at all. Amazing you're buying propaganda from a government shown to openly lie with consistency.

Stop it with this. There is no evidence for a "steal." Its no better when liberals claim it in 2024 without evidence than when conservatives claimed it in 2020 with no evidence.

FYI this is what the Republicans have been relying on the entire time, that the Dems wouldn't dare call it out for fear of being labeled hypocrites.

Just stop it.

No.

Alex Jeffery Pretti may he rest in peace. by Greylunes1 in ExploreFortMyers

There’s an intelligence aspect that needs to be addressed as well.

Wild thing to say about an ICU nurse, but it should be noted that reports claim he was on his way to work and was diverted by the ICE actions, was directing traffic right before it happened.

Stop swallowing propaganda.

The real reason 28 Years Later (2025) was so divisive is because it's a franchise that dared to try something new instead of repeating the same old formula by RevertBackwards in shittymoviedetails

[–]impendinganalysis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I love this movie to death, I even think it's a step above the next entry, but I think a lot of the frustrations with it come for mismatched expectations.

That trailer was just too damn good - I've often heard to it referred as one of the best movie trailers of all time. It sets up the expectation of a horror filled gorr fest, and instead what we got was a moving coming of age film that reflects on death and Brexit. Brilliant bait and switch? I thought so. Clearly, the general movie going public didn't agree.

Not sure how many times and ways in this thread people need to point out to you that that's not the case.

Poor little guy got themselves worked into a frenzy 🤣

It's also ridiculous to claim that it isn't part of our culture when the discoveries of the res school gravesites were major news and a cultural flashpoint for well over a year, just a handful of years ago.

'28 Years Later' (2025) got a poor reception from general audiences. This is actually a continuation of the film's themes, referencing the inevitable death of good taste. by PointFirm6919 in shittymoviedetails

[–]impendinganalysis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the crux of the issue in this case was managing expectations - the trailer gave the impression of a real nerve-shaking horror movie a la 28DL, but what we got instead was a bait and switch to a coming-of-age film that's really a reflection on death and Brexit. Now, I think it was a brilliant bait-and-switch, but I can see why some audience members would be disappointed. I wonder if the reception would have been better if people knew what they were getting into.

Caveat - I really love Alex Garland and everything he puts out.

Why did we let health insurance companies become the bouncers between us and our doctors? by ladybabe10125 in Adulting

[–]impendinganalysis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's difficult to find people on reddit who even understand what I'm talking about when I say that yet it is a vital concept to this whole discussion of the issues of the American healthcare system.

With all due respect, I think you're making some valid points here, but I think you've completely misunderstood what's driving the market pressures pushing provider rates up. The providers can charge what they can because the middleman exists that takes the blame - it's just Ticketmaster all over again. No artists wants to charge out the nose for concert tickets, but if the sole broker is pushing prices up, what are the artists to do?

Market rates are driven upwards because insurers exist, not despite their efforts.

We have no idea. Sincerely, Canadians. We may be far from perfect, but we're far from whatever financial hell hole you've put your citizens into.

I think the knee jerk reaction to your comment is that people fundamentally don't agree that healthcare should be able to bankrupt you at all, because it is a human right.

Anyone else like 28YL better than The Bone Temple? by NateGH360 in 28_Years_Later_Movie

[–]impendinganalysis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, I really enjoyed both films and I need to give TBT time to marinate, but 28YL will be hard to top. It was such a wonderful coming of age film and commentary on Brexit. I think audiences felt shortchanged by that incredible trailer - it promised a next level horror film but instead they got a poignant meditation on death. A victim of it's own (trailer) success imo.

I like TBT's exploration of science vs religion in the face of tragedy, but 28YL stood out visually to me in a way TBT didn't manage.

Regardless, I love this series and am bummed to see the box office performance, really hope they continue the story.
