Of course you go right past the more important point and go for immaturity. "A point against Barack is a win for me!" Really? Why do you care? Try and consider this, you might find it more interesting: I can see people on both sides of this debate reading that book and thinking it speaks to their possible future if the other side wins.

No I haven't. You've just been claiming that anyone who appreciated that movie did. Quotes or it didn't happen.It is fascinating reading what you wrote about this movie, but it shows you have a very poor grasp on movies and reality. At first, 6ix wrote this: Still no way I'm going to see this piece of shit, but it's hilarious how triggered the lefty crazies are by it. I think my favorite tweet about it has to be the one where some guy said that any critic who gave it a fresh rating has blood on their hands. They've become a Godless parody of the Evangelical Right in the 80's and 90's. http://fireflyfans.net/mthread.aspx?bid=18&tid=63299&mid=1084494#1084494 Next, 6ix wrote: I believe I heard today on the radio that it had the biggest DC movie opening ever. Was that true? Hasn't the left figured out by now that the most surefire way to get people to do something is to tell them they can't do it? http://fireflyfans.net/mthread.aspx?bid=18&tid=63299&mid=1084624#1084624 Next, 6ix wrote: I like to know how many of them watched every Saw movie that came out once a year while they were growing up. You'll have to let me know if it's actual torture porn, or if it's actually any good when you see it. I largely tuned out of any of that shit after shutting off the sequel to Silence of the Lambs around my mid 20s. I don't mind watching movies with monsters and aliens, but I have no desire to watch people hurting other people. There's enough of that shit in the real world. I agree that a lot of the trash out there today is gross. It's unfortunate that SJW's come around and make it about sex and race, and then calling for banning it, essentially making Joker a hero in 2019. http://fireflyfans.net/mthread.aspx?bid=18&tid=63299&mid=1084654#1084654 Next, 6ix wrote: So... Is it torture porn or not? I'm increasingly interested in seeing this if it isn't. I wasn't aware that it won the Venice Film Festival before American critics saw it and started tearing it to shreds. https://www.dw.com/en/joker-wins-best-film-at-venice-film-festival/a-50340659 WatchMojo, a top-ten clickbait horseshit youtube channel on par with BuzzFeed has videos titled "Top 10 Reasons Joker Will Blow Your Mind", "Top 10 Things Joker Did Right", "Top 10 Reasons Joker Will Sweep at the Oscars". Tim Pool just made a video on it very hesitantly saying that he wants to give it a 10 out of 10, and that he was in awe of it. He says that some people will probably think it's not action packed enough if they walk in expecting the usual Marvel or DC fare, but it's his personal favorite comic book movie of all time. And now I understand what the lefty elitist backlash is all about too... Joker is not an incel. There's no incel rhetoric in the movie at all. What they had a problem with is the fact that all the mask wearing Joker supporters in the film are emulating are Marcos and his black mask wearing Antifa buddies. The film is a hit piece on extreme leftism today. http://fireflyfans.net/mthread.aspx?bid=18&tid=63299&mid=1084717#1084717 Next: Cool. I think I'm going to see it. As long as it isn't anywhere near the level of "Hannibal" in terms of violence. Thanks. http://fireflyfans.net/mthread.aspx?bid=18&tid=63299&mid=1084764#1084764 Finally, 6ix saw Joker and went wild. http://fireflyfans.net/mthread.aspx?bid=36&tid=63327&mid=1085785#1085785 6ix praised the movie in 60 more postings. Apparently, 6ix missed the point that Joker murdered everyone who did not find him praiseworthy, including murdering his mother. 6ix misunderstood the meaning of the looting and murdering spree by Joker's admirers rampaging through Gotham City.

And because there are overlords who approve and disapprove what we should hear and say, Trump's now been silenced. Let's hear it for censorship and propaganda by the unaccountable 'them'! (Right?)

The complete control of the news airwaves of the 4 major networks, in which he could have said, "stop being a cry baby and wear a mask. Do it for yourself, do it for your neighbor, do it for your country." ?

Both futures are rather horrific, but I certainly would prefer BNW to 1984. 1984 was the scariest book I ever read, with only Animal Farm coming close to it.Orwell was writing about the recent past and the Soviet Union of 1948. Orwell was telling the English that this is their future unless they do something to stop the Russians. The society in 1984, although fictional, mirrors the political weather of the societies that existed all around him. Orwell's Oceania is a terrifying society reminiscent of Hitler's Germany and Stalin's Soviet Union — complete repression of the human spirit, absolute governmental control of daily life, constant hunger, and the systematic "vaporization" of individuals who do not, or will not, comply with the government's values. Orwell despised the politics of the leaders he saw rise to power in the countries around him, and he despised what the politicians did to the people of those countries. Big Brother is certainly a fusing of both Stalin and Hitler, both real and terrifying leaders, though both on opposite sides of the philosophical spectrum. By combining traits from both the Soviet Union's and Germany's totalitarian states, Orwell makes clear that he is staunchly against any form of governmental totalitarianism, either from the left or the right of the political spectrum. By making Big Brother so easily recognizable (he is physically similar to both Hitler and Stalin, all three having heavy black mustaches and charismatic speaking styles), Orwell makes sure that the reader of 1984 does not mistake his intention — to show clearly how totalitarianism negatively affects the human spirit and how it is impossible to remain freethinking under such circumstances. Luckily, the English-speaking part of the world understood the message in the novel 1984 about Russia back in 1948, but nowadays dimwits think 1984 is a message about the dreaded Democrats of 2023, not about Putin's simple plan to destroy Ukraine either with explosives or starvation or brainwashing Ukrainian children. https://www.cliffsnotes.com/literature/n/1984/about-1984 The Joss Whedon script for Serenity, where Wash lives, is Serenity-190pages.pdf at https://www.mediafire.com/folder/1uwh75oa407q8/Firefly
