Well, thanks for the new point of view. I might re-watch it at some point in life- if I do, I'll try it with this mind set.

I appreciate the perspective! Gotta say though, Jesus that's some deep-level dark comedy that I just don't understand. I was watching it as more of an art piece, and less of a commentary. I still don't like it, but I never thought of it in this light.

"There Will be Blood" was one of the most drab, boring, washed out, and damn near unwatchable movies of all time, yet everyone claims it's a masterpiece. It's just a story of a man becoming richer than god, and going off the deep-end, culminating in a scene where his adopted kid tells him how much they hate him, and him murdering someone in a misguided fit of rage. None of the characters are relatable, redeeming or interesting. The script has like a grand total of 1000 words across the entire 2.5 hour run time, and none of it is particularly compelling. What a snooze fest.

You're welcome to that view. I am welcome to my view of- yours is a naive take.

Hey, that's like a ~.1% increase of userbase, assuming 45k!

I know that I just came from Reddit today, so... At least 1 person joined because of this fuckery lol

[–] supernight52@lemmy.world 29 points 5 days ago

And with that- I have deleted my Reddit account that I have had for 13 years lol. Fuuuuck that. I don't even care if that gets reversed after Nintendo gets involved. This is ridiculous behavior.

Am I better than someone that legally murdered hundreds of thousands for cheering someone that illegally murdered that 1 person? Yes. Yes I am.

None of those actually mention the vote in Ukrainian parliament, that is where the "unanimously" comes from 😇 I've looked through several sources and AJ English had it summarized the best 🤷‍♂️

Fair enough! While the vote isn't mentioned in mine, they do talk about the opposition making public statements that they would refuse to run an election in wartime, which was enough in my mind for showing intent. I do appreciate the extra source.

off topic: not sure what are your reservations about AJ - soft power vehicle for Qatari gov?

Primarily that, yes. I appreciate the source of information, and if they are the ones reporting first- that is what it is, I just personally don't read it if I can help it.

Lol this is even funnier because his sanctions from 2018 in his first term are still in place, I believe.
