Their democracy died. They have lessons for America about Trump’s power grab.

@kermodeandmayo.bsky.social any thoughts on ageism and the Oscar’s? www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie... I find this one sided story, with actors past their prime not receiving recognition (Michelle Yeoh remind us not to let anyone do that). Also, race is a bigger issue not mentioned here.
