There was a movie about the formation of NWA that I watched a few years ago. I wish I could remember the name of it. It was really great and I learned a lot I didn't know about them. I'll try to think of the name and will update this comment if I can find it.
Invariably these articles about Republicans/magas turning on trump use headlines that make it sound like it's some kind of sea change, and then you get into the article and it's one or two people.
There's a lot of awful things being done under Trump, but this blatant and open voter disenfranchisement by the Republicans in a bunch of states is in my top ten, and very worrisome. It's among a few things that make me worry the midterms aren't going to go like people think they will.
I have gpt4all installed and just for kicks I just asked it three times "Who is Elias Thorne?" It gave me three different answers, including one answer claiming he's a character from The Last of Us and another claiming he's a character from Stranger Things.
The problem was nearly four years of "this time we're really gonna get Trump" in the context of the J6 investigation, the documents he hoarded in his bathroom, etc, and not a damn thing actually happened. The man is white and wealthy and we had four years to see what white and wealthy gets you - teflon skin apparently.
So it's a little bit hard to imagine dems coming out hard enough to secure consequences of any kind for him. I'm hopeful, sure, and I'm glad they are planning. What I lack faith in is the effectiveness of the plans.
Came to say Requiem for a Dream but I see that's well represented.
I'll go with Legends of the Fall - a story told across multiple generations of a family, and damn near nothing but tragedy for any of them. It left me feeling so bleak towards the world. (Decades ago that I watched it, but that's my recollection.)
Pink Floyd The Wall - also just left me feeling like humanity is just endlessly fucked up and mostly terrible to each other.
I had to go look up what Butter Tarts are. Now I want some.
