Look folks I'm a communist, nobody is gonna make me feel bad about my vote. But by all means keep yelling and belittling every leftist you encounter about how they're bad people if they don't vote for Gavin Newsom, it's working great and I'm sure it will result in exactly what you want

Sometimes I wonder what life is like for people who live places where it doesn’t become incredibly difficult to lock and unlock your doors four months out of the year because the extreme cold has caused your door and your doorframe to warp into different shapes

Wim Wenders is catching hell over his comments at Berlinale, and it’s well-deserved, but there’s plenty of blame for this gutless stance to go around. Ewa Puszczyńska’s comments were even more cowardly and she produced ZONE OF INTEREST! Apparently without having absorbed its most crucial lesson!

Yesterday Wim Wenders, the director of the Berlinale film festival, when asked about Gaza said "we have to stay out of politics." In 2024 he said "the Berlinale is the most political film festival. It always speaks out." Liberal values are a lie
