  • My theory is that people who found No Country boring are only familiar with straight forward plots. It takes thoughtfulness to enjoy the film, and the people I know who disliked it lack that.

    The movie doesn’t hold your hand. John Wick requires lots flashy action because the average viewer would benefit from a close caption that says “feel excited now,” while No Country is boring unless you’re brain is actively participating.

    What are your thoughts on this generalization?





  • The abuse that LGBT people have experienced is immense. Any normalization of those who are harmlessly different is good, but normalization isn’t always used for good. A state building can wave an anti LGBT flag in support of some hijacked vision of traditional values. I think it is important for government to host a culture of neutrality. Neutrality builds trust and fairness, and in a time when trust in all forms of government is down and thinning hope for change, I believe fundamentally states must act neutrally, for the sake of the LGBT.

    As a bi man, I frequently find myself giving short lived sympathies to right leaning people because in some aspects, they have a point. I think that Americans have every right to be skeptical of the state to a point, but I disagree that Trump was the solution.
