The guy you're trying to pass the buck to, money_loo, is from a lemmy instance that only has Chicago sports communities and whose front page is mostly federated meme posts. You're a BeeHaw user. You've presumably read and agreed to the Beehaw community documents.
I expect more than anti-intellectualism from you.
That definitely changes things. Out of curiosity, I looked up what other movies he directed and produced.
He produced and starred in American Sniper, which was incidentally also kind of a political disaster. The nose prosthetic reminds me of the American Sniper fake baby hilarity. Bradley put the blame on the director, but the director makes it sound like it was a monetary and not an artistic choice. That would put the responsibility on the shoulders of the producer.
So many questions!
Are you suggesting that the political aspects of technology shouldn't be discussed in a technology community?
Are you implying that technology is apolitical? That there are technology subjects to discuss that don't have a political component?
Do discussions of the applications of technology not belong in a technology community?
Why am I in the Industrial Workers of the World?
Why am I in the Industrial Workers of the World? [a little black cat sits in a field of red, asking the audience this question]
For the logo. Let me explain… [the little black cat is looking up at the insignia of the IWW, a globe in a circle beneath the letters I W W with three stars among them]
The better-known business unions in the states all have logos of varying appeal… [a collection of business union logos, including the Teamsters, the UAW, the SEIU, the AFLC-CIO and the UFCW]
But for all their history and iconography, none of them have what this logo has… Those three stars. [little black cat looks up at the IWW insignia, with the 3 stars glowing]
Really, for me, it’s the last of the three stars that matters the most. It represents the third and final aspect of our work… [The star is glowing in the center of the frame]
Emancipation [chains being broken]
Emancipation of the working class in struggle and at war, and the Earth that feeds and holds us all. [chains encompassing the planet Earth being broken]
Both the IWW and the business unions fight for higher wages and better benefits, which are both critically important, but… [a big, buff black cat flexes imposingly next to a big, buff dog. They are intimidating a blue duck who is sitting behind a desk labeled ‘boss’ and sweating nervously]
We seek to abolish the wage system, to realize Industrial Democracy and live in harmony with the Earth. We want The Big Win, not concessions. Learn more and join at iww.org! [the little black cat is saying all this while the third star glows nearby]
Sprawling emission nebulae IC 1396 and Sh2-129 mix glowing interstellar gas and dark dust clouds in this nearly 12 degree wide field of view toward the northern constellation Cepheus the King. Energized by its central star IC 1396 (left), is hundreds of light-years across and some 3,000 light-years distant. The nebula's intriguing dark shapes include a winding dark cloud popularly known as the Elephant's Trunk below and right of center. Tens of light-years long, it holds the raw material for star formation and is known to hide protostars within. Located a similar distance from planet Earth, the bright knots and swept back ridges of emission of Sh2-129 on the right suggest its popular name, the Flying Bat Nebula. Within the Flying Bat, the most recently recognized addition to this royal cosmic zoo is the faint bluish emission from Ou4, the Giant Squid Nebula. Near the lower right edge of the frame, the suggestive dark marking on the sky cataloged as Barnard 150 is also known as the dark Seahorse Nebula.
Have you tried sokui? If you have leftover asian rice, all you need is a blender. It was historically used in Japan to supplement traditional furniture and housing wood joinery.
Yikes! They gave Bradley Cooper an even bigger nose than Leonard Bernstein. Is this some kind of antisemitic attack on Jake Gyllenhaal for not taking a pay cut to play the part?
If feel like this is more a studio scandal than a Cooper scandal. They did the casting and approved the prosthetic. I'm disappointed the actor gets the heat and the institution isn't mentioned.
If you want to get angry at Bradley, his relationship with 21 year old Suki Waterhouse was super gross. The studio holds no blame for that mess.
Crack Attack! is a loving parody of addictive tetrislike games that is also an extremely addictive tetrislike game.
The first amendment doesn't exist to prevent editorial censorship. It has nothing to do with "cancel culture."
It protects freedom of speech, the press, assembly, and the right to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. It has been interpreted by centuries of court decisions to protect against exactly this - harassment and prosecution by government agents for engaging in protected speech, especially political protest.
You must not be from a culture with an antifascist tradition of "First they came for the "
I'm concerned you would think this is an okay thing to post, and I'm worried about the people who subscribe to socialism and would upvote this kind of sentiment.
Furthermore, you're not even correct. The police's justification is the vehicle's attendance at an unaffiliated nonviolent climate movement protest, though I doubt that changes things in your mind.
Enron and the collapse of California's power grid is directly linked to deregulation by George Bush's regime and a lack of public control and oversight of electricity markets. Corporate media blamed the energy price crisis on the governor, leading to a recall and his replacement by a Republican. Capitalists would love for that to happen in Chicago too; squeeze poor families with energy prices they can't afford and then blame it on the government to shift the state's politics to the right.
I thought from the title that the song was about how love was gay. Yay invidious!
Russia is still the world's #2 arms exporter. Using supply domestically means that less can be exported, and more importantly, demonstrably under performing compared to western offering reduces demand.
Support. No one wants to hear about the negative stuff about their platform of choice, but it's important to talk about it so it can improve.
