| Topic | As a Kill Bill fan, I am watching all of Tarantino's films finally. |
| Daremo 09/28/25 9:50:35 AM #19 | I'm curious about people who don't like Death Proof. I had the 70s schlock thriller/horror context, so for me it was mostly laughing and doing the DiCaprio pointing meme. I don't know how I would have reacted if I had tried to watch it as an actual movie, rather than a long form nostalgia joke. Also, did people watch it alone, or together with Planet Horror? If you also saw Planet Horror, what did you think of that? It was a lot more blatant in its humour, so I wonder if it was better received. --- Cynic, n.

If, however, you Exhibit motivated reasoning and motivated skepticism and Find it difficult to evaluate performance objectively you might be tempted to latch on to a person prematurely, and attempt to elevate them to an untenable position that will result in the ultimate failure of your goals.

And that's the truth.Some of you guys need to go to West Texas and see the Bible quotes in airport bathrooms. Spend some time talking to these folks.And somehow you have come to land exactly where I am at. A lot of Americans are idiots. They do not see the 'greater good'. You cannot get them to vote for someone who isn't at least pretending to cater to their narrow interests. You can't just tell them, "I might come around to your side later", they won't hear it. All they will hear is, "I'm not on your side now". That is just reality. The fact that so many in this topic have partisan blinders on and are actively attacking people who should be in coalition with them only highlights the point. "They agree with me on issue after issue, but they don't want to back the figurehead I like, so they must be against me!" Maybe find a different figurehead? Blue no matter who? There's a corollary to that the people seem to refuse to acknowledge. Who should be the Democratic frontrunner? There shouldn't be on at this point. It definitely shouldn't be anyone so openly divisive. My ideal 2028 nominee pops into existence around May of 2027, hardly anyone knows who they are, and more importantly, no one has a massive hate boner for them before they run.
