Hamas might be doing terrible things, but they are also fighting a disproportionate war, and it’s not like Israel is respecting any of the human rights conventions either.

And in Ukraine, the Ukrainian army is fighting for freedom from invaders and fighting a disproportionate war too, and are committing war crimes like torture of prisons or targeting of energy infrastructure just like Russia is doing.

War is always messy. To paint Hamas as exceptionally evil is unfair and probably an outcome of racial bias.

I am convinced Nolan is basically just a ‘influencer’ paid by Imax to keep Imax alive.

It’s only going to go up. Look at how revenues are increasing, it’s basically ad and PR money.

They can finally get rid of McKinsey and blame it on cheaper and faster trendy butthole logo of the month.

There are a lot of independent creators out there too.

I want a future where communities self host their media and circumvent media companies like Netflix and Disney. Local film clubs, TV clubs, hobbyists, etc. can come together and host as a collective bringing down costs and making this more accessible.

You see productivity gains have nothing to do with AI. It’s being pushed down our throats because some elites have vested interest in its success and it’s another way to extract more money from the consumers.

There is nuance to Ukraine Russia war too. Yes Russia is the obvious aggressor, and strengthened secession movements in eastern Ukraine through propaganda, but there were always some ethnically Russian people living there who felt they belong more with Russia.

They, along with the help of Russia were leading some kind of separatist movement and Ukraine bombed their own citizens to quel this issue. It’s hard to tell amidst all the propaganda on both sides, but there is definitely nuance here. Also not to mention Ukraine flirting with NATO membership was apparently a red line for Putin.
