What's that mr CIA? Anti-imperialism? Marxism-Leninism? I just write movie review. If it has over 300 likes I've muted it because you guys are annoying.

I've made a list of films specifically for people who want to get in to socialist and anti-imperialist cinema. Check it out if that's you. https://t.co/1W8QsntgZm

This is a personally curated list made purely as a point of reference for budding socialists and anti-imperialists as well as socialists who just don't watch much cinema. The list consists purely of…

Don't tempt me with the funniest thing that could possibly happen.
Nobel Peace Prize Winner María Corina Machado’s escape from Venezuela was particularly risky because her team had to inform the US military that she was escaping so they wouldn’t mistake her boat for an alleged narco boat and bomb it. Full Story: https://t.co/sRwhAWhnvM

In Stuttgart, Maccabi supporters chant "Let the IDF fuck the Arabs," "Death to the Arabs," and "Fuck you Palestine." The @VfB speaks of a "successful soccer evening." Open calls for genocide in German stadiums; politicians, media, and sports remain silent. Shameful.

Trying to catch up with films that came out in 2025. This was a mess but a fun one. https://t.co/OBrhNdxsas

I feel like past Park Chan-wook could teach his present day self a couple of things about keeping it simple. Sympathy for Mr Vengeance was really quite simple, utterly brutal, still retained a streak…

Why do you think China isn't already attempting to make competitive LLMs? Because they looked at them, realised they're a bunch of stupid bullshit that can't do 95% of the things their investors claim and it would be a massive waste of money and energy.

Just saw a bunch of blue tick Political Science types respond to the news that Trump is allowing Nvidia chips to be exported to China by screaming about the possibility this will allow China to develop competitive AI. Quite possibly the least serious political thinkers ever.

Israel debates a death penalty bill for Palestinian prisoners, but as Abdel Nasser Ferwana shows, executions have been routine for decades. The bill would simply formalize what already exists: an old policy of killing prisoners outside any legal framework https://t.co/Z8Yfom7t0T

It's pretty funny that these guys think these two quotes are that far apart.
Actual quote: “I came into Congress thirteen years ago with the stated intention of being the leading defender of Israel in the United States, and I’ve worked every day to do that.” Completely different quote. These people just lie.

I can understand people not having the attention span for Satantango or From What is Before but if you're struggling this much with a Vince Gilligan show then you really might as well just permanently plug your brain in to Youtube shorts.
Pluribus fans explaining how the episode’s 6th minute long sequence of Carol doing something mundane isn’t boring (it’s a slow burn)

This was quite satisfying. A piece of reasonably cerebral sci-fi noir that doesn't exactly introduce new concepts but still manages to develop intrigue and give us well developed interesting…

It’s been 14 months since a group of doctors were so alarmed about the pattern of Israeli soldiers targeting and shooting kids in Gaza that they wrote a nytimes op ed about it. Israel is simply permitted to continue killing Palestinians.
Israel killed a 3-year-old today in Gaza. Another horrific violation of the ceasefire with zero headlines in Western media.

A really amazing social realist film from the Philippines https://t.co/5Id202r6eF

Quite the chronicle of intense misery. Take the kindest, most earnest person and surround them with monsters. We're doing really bleak social realism in the slums of Manila and whilst the central…

Dear angry Green Party members, if you want me to listen to your longwinded explanations about why I'm wrong to feel the way I do, don't start your multi tweet rambles with the implication that I might be lying. https://t.co/4xQF5SALNJ
@askforcawmbyok If you are in fact a care worker which I am also then you have to recognize the truth of what Polanski’s full argument lays out. Government policy is to underpay HCWs in the UK. Domestic trained HCW are recruited/drawn to peer nations where pay & benefits are better. This creates

Care work is really good by the way. If you're struggling with how overwhelmingly terrible the world is (and I have) then learning to care for others is a great way to help yourself through helping people who need it.
