He originally wanted someone else to direct them. Sometimes I dream of what they could have been if he succeeded in getting another director to pick up the mantle , and that director also brought along a good scriptwriter. We know a lot of those people can act, so I bet with proper direction and writing, they could have actually been good.

Oh cool. More movie company consolidation -_-.. Great...

Happy Star Wars Day!

I try sometimes but as you can tell by my history, I often fail. I need people to populate the other communities more, though, so I can avoid politics lol. Find other communities and comment or post, try different sorts, like scaled or new, instead of just Top or Active.

This guy's videos are usually pretty good. They got a quick pace, good editing, and explain things really well. They are a socialist so they have a bias in that way, but they'd be the first to admit it and to say that every creator has a bias of some sort or another.

I didn't know there are community challenges. What a cute idea. Can't wait to do some voting! Is there a megathread anywhere where I can look at past community challenges?

That organized part is the hard part. Everyone is so atomized.

He's had lots of time to reign him in and he hasn't at all. They've just given them more money, weapons, and support. Until there's been actual actions and not just words, on this particular issue, they are the only exact same.

Until then, the threat of a Trump Presidency hopefully impresses upon Biden the need to do something, anything, other than what he's been doing (a wag of his finger every now and then and that's it).

I don't want Trump back. You don't want Trump back. It's better to spend your energy trying to push Biden on this issue as soon as possible.

Hope you're right!

No, this definitely seems different and new from all the recent articles about it I've seen. This vote passed Wednesday, not in December. It's a response to the protests at universities. And it's a bill, so it can be passed into law. I think you're confusing two different things.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/70-house-democrats-and-21-republicans-voted-against-a-bill-to-crack-down-on-antisemitism-on-college-campuses/ar-AA1o02Rn

This expands the definition of antisemitism to bring critical of Israel at all or comparing Zionism to Nazism, and would codify it into law if it, passes the Senate and is signed by the President. So there is still time to stop this, and it's a big deal, so people should be angry about it.

Ah, like cocaine. I get the resemblance now!

I'm definitely not voting for Trump. I live in a blue state where my vote doesn't matter anyway. I'm just saying, you guys aren't helping as much as you think you are. Look at it from their point of view. They're not thinking rationally, and honestly, I don't expect them to. It's an emotionally charged situation when people you know or people like you are being genocided. The effort would be better spent trying to force Biden to change tactics on supporting Israel before election day.

+1

Hopefully we can learn from past movements like Occupy, which were unfocused, and apply the lessons learned to future protests, like this Gaza one. It kind of scared me when they said larger struggle, because it brought me immediately back to Occupy, like you said.

I'm using Sync. Might be the app I'm using. But thanks for the translation! It's straightforward but still hilarious lol.

I had no idea these were a thing. That's brutal.

What is that picture in English?

That's the one thing, I really want more niche communities. Not sure if we just need more people or community discovery needs to be easier. I'd like to see more with the league of legends community and Meet Your Maker community, and I'm sure other people have niche video games or other small hobby communities they'd like to see take off more.

Or one of them collected a fund and went out and bought a bunch of the cheapest ones they could find? The pro-Palestine lobby doesn't exist and have billions of dollars behind it like the pro-Israel one. Your conspiracy is barking up the wrong tree. Even homeless people in LA can afford tents, let alone students joining an expensive university.

Or Biden could change course? He's got time and the ramping up of pressure against him will hopefully reach a fever pitch that he'll have no choice but to do so. If not, then he really likes Israel more than he likes democracy, and it's as much his fault as it is the people who refuse to vote for the guy who's killing their family members.

Wow, what agreat sales pitch to encourage people to vote for the guy who's killing their family members...
