Good point. As everyone knows, it was elections that finally brought Hitler down.
“If the left wants to combat right-wing extremism, it needs to be in the business of winning elections.” explains Alex Garland, writer and director of ‘Civil War’.

Jesus fucking Christ. Is there any subject Bill Maher isn't an ignorant asshole on?
His "weirdo D list producer" was a wildly influential DIRECTOR, and BTVOTD was one of the top grossing studio films of 1970
We'll be talking about Russ Meyer long after Maher is dead & forgotten

This is not how you behave when you're protesting someone you have political differences with.
It is, however, how you behave when you're protesting someone who's actively working to kill you.
BREAKING: We just shut down a gala honoring U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski. Murkowski is a murderer. She incinerates us to enrich her cronies. As Chevron's top lobbyist gave her an award, we stepped in and stopped the ceremony. Respect us or expect us. 🧵

If you're an artist trying to comment on the state of the world today, there's literally NO excuse for being this ignorant.
when interviewed about “civil war” alex garland said, “left & right are ideological arguments about how to run a state... but we’ve made it into ‘good and bad.’”
is using footage from a fascist propagandist & crediting him good. or bad. i cant tell

Bloodthirsty right wing warmongering maniac. One of the all-time worst human beings. But, hey, he doesn’t like Donald Trump so let’s put him on CNN.
CNN has John Fucking Bolton on the air calling for an all-out war against Iran.

For a long time, Walton Goggins had a face people recognized, even if they didn’t know his name. Now he has the name-recognition too.

Look, wherever you come down on what's happening in the Middle East, can't we all at least agree that it's a beautiful thing to see Tommy Tuberville and Nancy Pelosi coming together to agree that getting rich off war is awesome?
Here is every US politician whose stock portfolio will benefit from a conflict in the Middle East between Iran & Israel.
I have aggregated a list of their stocks, like Raytheon, $RTX, Lockheed Martin, $LMT, & more.
Many are making millions.

Warren Zevon isn't.
If you don't get what a travesty that is, check out this list of people covering Zevon songs. Then try to find one of people covering DM songs.

Look, I'm as far from a conservative as you can get, and tend to think of the far right as dangerously unhinged.... But I have to admit - when they're right, they're right.
Oh look, Anya Taylor Joy is starring in another movie. Shocking.

After 12 seasons, many viewers lament the passing of “Curb Your Enthusiasm” Larry David’s sour, pseudo bio-series. I’m not a fan, because Larry truly is the self-righteous, snobby, self-loathing, narcissistic ass he portrays. That opinion is informed by an outdoor afternoon…
