Are the books worth reading? I don’t want to get to the end and it’s ultimately Lib but that sounds cool

Idiocracy – the whole thing is a eugenics take on poor people are genetically stupid people and vice versa, and their “out of control” breeding vs the smart, civil minded rich people creates a world that’s run by the genetically poor stupid people

Are they like named as the Bolsheviks in the movie? Or is just implied

This is truly the dumbest era of all time

Awesome I think it’s super well done

Yeah I think that’s well said and generally accurate

I think we all know that here

I think it’s a maturity thing. There’s an outward need to be contrarian, to be seen. And often just yeah baby brained poor analysis of film

I don’t think it’s a commentary of the maturity of the treats. I think it’s going out of your way to say that there is zero value or anything interesting in a movie like Oppenheimer is just reductive and silly. It just speaks to having a pretty unrefined sense of film analysis. Notice here I’m not arguing for the merits of Oppenheimer. There’s often a sort of weird desire to compete with one another in left spaces to be more radical than others, like “oh that’s your opinion? My opinion is even more extreme than that. I win.” Which leaks into conversations like this in weird ways, and I think that’s a generally a of personal immaturity, not the maturity of the thing itself. And also, “baby brained” is just colloquial shorthand. It’s a silly little phrase, but it’s kind of straw man to be like “oh you used a widespread internet phrase, who’s the immature one now?”

That seems way more convenient than a million apps all clawing my data in different ways with their own unique UX designed to make my life more frustrating
