This is a fair point. But the right co-opting anarchism does not mean anarchism isn't far left.
Just like how nazi's co-opting socialism doesn't make socialism into nazism. Anarchy has ideology that directly critizes money, capitalism, the state and hierarchical systems.
If people are calling themselves anarchist and then using that ideology to promote crypto-currencies. They are the ones doing it wrong.
You said the film felt ultimately pretentious, that’s what I was responding to in that comment. Idk how this movie came off as pretentious considering the real world implications of his life.
People seem to be misunderstanding me here, i am saying Christopher Nolan is pretentious. not Oppenheimer the person. Not Oppenheimer's actual life. I am not calling the events depicted inthe film pretentious.
Im calling the director, Christopher Nolan pretentious. specifically His chioce to make the movie so Loud it hurt my ears and was visibly uncomfortable other viewers.
But The main thing I find pretentious, is Nolan's choice to not use CGI for the Trinity test scene.
I didnt even know this was the case when I went to the film. I was simply underwhelmed by the explosion in the scene. And later started googling the film only to find out that he didnt use CGI.
I dont care who you are. If you make movie about the Father of the nuke. The nuke scene should not be underwhelming. Thats my opinion at least.
Im glad you liked it. Sincerely. I did too. but it is pretentious af to make a nuke scene in a movie about the father of the nuke, without CGI. Fullstop. He could just use very little cgi. Idk. But for me that scene was not a believable depiction of the trinity Test.
Seems to me like you were expecting a movie
about the making of the atom bomb, when the movie was clearly focusing on the life of the man who created it.
Omg. You're the second person to say this.
I find this take hilarious.
Maybe you're right. But Am I really that out of bounds to expect The Trinity test to be a little more big?
It didn't even look like the trinity test footage.
So yeah I had expectations, I expected a director who seems to be very concerned about historically accurate depictions....... to depict the trinity test historically accurate.
It's a big deal to me. Sorry.
As for the sound, in my theater everything sounded great, maybe just slightly too loud in some scenes. Could it be just a bad setup?
I saw it in 70mm imax as Christopher Nolan himself recommended. The sound was unbearable for many scenes.
So Im glad your theather was good but if mr.nolan cant make his movie sound decent in his recommend fomat. I think he should maybe turn it down alittle? Im not the first person to make this critque of this movies.
This is the strike generally credited with causing mass unionization within the auto industry.
You know how they did it? A sit dow strike in a GM plant in flint michagan in 1936-1937.
Strikers threw bolts and hinges at Cops who were shooting into the building, as they tried to forcably remove strikers.
Do you support this kind of protest?
At the time Sit down strikes are not protected as freedom of assembly by the federal government. They are illegal. So is occupying a private businesses building.
In fact , it wasnt but 1 year eariler with the wagner act that striking was protected by the federal
government at all.
Do you know how Americans won the right to strike?
They performed illegal strikes and mass protests for a few decades until the federal government recognized it as a right.
Soo I beleive that mass striking is the only way to bring real change to this country.
I would suggest that we do what has worked for European nations.
Most European nations have had mass protests to inorder to force governments to institute social safety nets. Ever heard of france?
Do you support mass protest? Cuz they burn shit down in france.
I'm guessing you dont!
Also you didnt answer abortion question: please answer me, what are your views on abortion?
I dont debate with poeple who dont recognize abortion as a fundamental right of pregnant people.
When I hear "moderates" say they want to curb big bizness.
I ask them how.
Do the courts politians and free markets work for the people? As a far leftist aka anarchist i say that they dont. I think the only real solution is revloution and getting rid of capitalism and most if not all systems of hierarchy.
How would you suggest that we prevent Microsoft from becoming an even larger entity?
Also while your at it why dont you tell us your views on abortion? That way we can know where you stand.
Agreed. Human intelligence is way over valued. i feel much of this thinking has roots in exceptionalism.
