I like it because you could see how it could be convincing if you didn’t know him. And I always figured that’s how it is with both Lex Luthor and Doom, they sound like good guys to the people they manipulate, but their motivations are based on pure ego.
This is why I still believe in physical media. While most of my purchases are digital nowadays, I consider them disposable basically. For movies and games I really care about and want to be able to keep, I like physical.
For what it’s worth, I think this one is more fun than the first one. Or most recent Marvel movies except for Guardians of the Galaxy 3. And I haven’t even seen Miss Marvel.
Nah it’s pretty bad lol. They just slowly crank up which people are impacted, as fascism tends to do, so maybe you personally haven’t noticed. Or plenty of people have noticed and aren’t sure what the cause is (so they support fascists instead). But if you’re a woman, LGBTQ, a teacher, a student, poor, disabled, or tons of other things you will have noticed quality of life steadily getting worse. It’s just a lot of people aren’t sure what the cause is or how to fix it because political knowledge and participation is so low in this country.
At least strikes have been increasing in the industries which have unions. We just need wider union participation and that would be one more avenue to political participation normal workers could be involved in.
Not sure if you remember or heard but thousands of civilians were killed by Hamas a few days, including many who would probably march for peace with Palestine, children and old people. Hamas are not the good guys and it’s definitely complicated.
My high school Spanish teacher said she learned English after immigrating to the US by watching English soap operas like Days of Our Lives and things like that. I’m sure the same could be done but not sure how exactly. It would probably take a lot of active listening.
